Make Mail app stop sending calendar notifications?

Is there a way to completely disable OS X Mail.app sending Calendar notifications? I use Postbox for mail and I'd like to use Calendar. But with  Apple Mail firing up everytime to send notications, I might have to just use the browser for my calendar (I use google apps).
Thanks.

First, make sure you have an outgoing mail account corresponding to each of your incoming mail accounts. The user names must match. Then make sure the right outgoing account is selected when you send. You can change the default selection in
Mail > Preferences > Composing > Send new messages from:

  • Why does Calendar keep opening my Mail.app to send me email notifications?

    Why does Calendar keep opening my Mail.app to send me email notifications? I've disabled any settings that look like they could be used to sending me an alert. I've also read that disabling the email alerts in gmail would also help (since I use 3 gmail calendars in addition to my icloud calendar). Any ideas on how I might fix this issue?

    Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box, other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

  • Mail app stopped working after upgrade to Mavericks

    Dear All,
    I have updated from Mountain Lion (Macbook Pro 3,1, 256SSD) to Mavericks, and mail app stopped working.
    That means - when I click the icon - the app does not work.
    I can see that it downloads mail - as when I click it I receive notifcation that it has downloaded some mail, however I cannot open window. Sometimes I manage to open it, but it is totally unresponsive - I cannot change or click anything in it.
    I have tried repairing disk permissions but without any success.
    Moreover if I run mail app and try to click "new message" from the top bar, the window that appears is somewhat mixed with my wallpaper backround (I can see fragments of it).
    Please help me, as I had there a few gigs of precious mails that I don't want to lose...
    Thank you in advance!
    Olek

    Do a backup.
    Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
    Copy the line below.
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Select Go/Go To Folder from the Finder menu bar. Paste the line into the window. You won’t see it.
    Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there. 
    Information learned from Linc Davis.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library Directory in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion & 10.8 Mountain Lion
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • Schedule Mail.app to send an Email in the future

    Hey everyone, I want to send an email in the future, for marking an anniversary of a friends daughters passing away. I Don't want to miss it and I don't want to have to compose a message last minute. I want to compose it NOW. Is there a script or something I can use to make Mail.app send the mail via my Gmail IMAP at a specified time?
    Thanks!

    I will say that Mail Scripts does work. I have used it for a couple of years and it allows me to create an email, save as DRAFT, then run the script for it to send it out in the future.
    It even still works on Mountain Lion 10.8.1

  • Mail App stopped checking mail

    Hi. Mail App stopped checking mail suddenly. I was able to check my mail at 10:15 this morning. Now when i tell it to get mail it does nothing at all. I repaired permissions and reboot and still no luck. Any ideas?

    Try locating and deleting these two preference/plist files:
    ~(yourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    ~(yourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist

  • My mail has stopped sending. I can receive but I can't send.

    My mail has stopped sending, even though I can still send via my iPod. Mail on my iMac can receive but not send. I've tried deleting the talktalk account and starting a fresh, but it's not made any difference. This has just started to happen, I was sending quite happily until now. Does anyone have a solution?
    I get a message saying: Cannot send message using the server smtp.talktalk.net:(followed by my email address)

    I would think that at the very LEAST you would be eligible for a COMPLETE refund of ALL charges for insurance paid thru Verizon!  They were charging you for something you were ineligible for!  Verizon has a record of whether or not you purchased the phone from them - otherwise how could they deny the claim!
    It very sad to see how customer service and customer satisfaction has been lost here ... !

    So? What's your problem? BTW, you show SL as the OS, but mention installing Mavs. Very confusing.

  • Mail has stopped sending all mail.  Insist that outgoing servers are offline.  Have checked all setting preferences for outgoing servers including user name and password.

    Mail has stopped sending all email.  Says all outgoing servers are offline and server certificate are invalid.  Have gone into preferences/accounts/edit SMTP servers and reentered all data including user name and password.
    Have had  this happen before and had to upgrade to Maverick to cure it.

  • Mail App stops responding and the whole system gets stuck!!!

    I'm using an iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 computer with 4GB of RAM.
    For the past year or so I have noticed the Mail app stops responding. When I try to close it, it still can't be closed. Even when I try to Force quit it, still it stays the same. When this happens the Safari and other internet based apps can't download data and all I can see is black web pages trying to download data forever.
    Then I'm left with the option to restart the computer. When I try to restart the machine. It start closing down all the other running apps and gets stuck when closing down the Mail app. It says "The Mail app does not respond. Please try to close it down Manually" but, still it can't be closed. So I'm only left with the option to shut down the computer by pressing down the power buttion for 4 seconds and start the computer again.
    I have been noticing this problem for a while (I think about a year) I was using OS Lion. I recently updated to the new OS X Version 10.9 Mavericks (I believe this is the latest) but, the problem seem to remain unsolved.
    Kind Regards

  • IPhone mail app not sending notifications

    I use the mail app for iphone to check my college email,
    usually it sends notifications when I receive a new messege but it is not sending any more (No sounds, no banners, no badges),
    Although the email app is in Notification Center when I check it in the settings
    Is that beacuse I Use IMAP Not POP ?

    If Mail is in the notification center and the badge icon is on, alert is on, and ect... Try to reset your device holding home and sleep/wake button; Wait til the Apple logo appears and then let go of the buttons and wait for reboot. Has nothing to do with what type of email account you are using.

  • Any way to make Mail.app receive before send?

    I work at an ISP and we have a customer who is outside of our range, using Mail.app to connect to our POP3 server.
    Normally we have them use their provider's outgoing mail server, and our incoming mail server since our mail server rejects e-mails originating outside of our IP pool. Usually this works.
    However, the customer's provider blocks use of their outgoing mail server if the e-mail address is from a different domain.
    The one solution would be to have Mail.app receive (and thus authenticate with our mail server) before sending.
    Is there any way to do this?

    Are you talking about POP before SMTP authentication and if so, are you saying the account must check the incoming mail server for new mail immediately before sending mail with the account's SMTP server and this must occur each time before sending mail?
    I thought when POP before SMTP authentication is used/required, checking the incoming mail server for the account at least once per online session is all this is required, not each time immediately before sending mail.
    There is no setting to do so in Mail but you can manually select Get Mail before sending a message if I'm understanding this correctly.

  • Mail App stopped downloading new messages from Gmail

    I'm using MBP with OS X Lion.
    I've been using Mail App for my two Gmail accounts. I also use two different types of mail downloading systems (POP and IMAP) for them. For some reason, the speed of downloading new messages started slowing down a few weeks ago; however, I could still use it until today. Today, it seems like it is completely out.
    It just stopped downloading new messages completely.
    For the POP account, it says:
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “POP” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “pop.gmail.com” on port 995 timed out.
    For the IMAP account, it says:
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “IMAP” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “pop.gmail.com” on port 993 timed out.
    The weird part is that I can still send an email out of those accounts fine.
    I checked the settings for Gmail, and everything seemed just fine.
    I tried to re-do everything so deleted the IMAP account. Now it shows the message below:
    The Google IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages.
    I tried Connection Doctor and it shows as below:
    I followed the suggestion by changing unchecking those boxes for SSL, but it didn't help either.
    I tried "Rebuild" under mail box menu bar but it also didn't do anything.
    Can anyone help me with this issue?
    Thank you in advance.

    By the way, my Mail App is version 5.3
