Multiple email accounts on Mail issue

Hi there, just wondering if anyone cn help with my Mail email issue. I have scoured the net but can't find anyone with the exact same or similar issue.
For simplicitys sake, letes say I have 3 email accounts, [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] I have set alpha to be the default account and this works fine, when I click new email the sender is by default [email protected] The problem arises when I want to send an email from the bravo or charlie accounts. I click on ne email and in the drop down "From" window I select the bravo account I want to send from, compose my email and click send. Away it goes but the recipient recieves and email from "bravo" but with the email address [email protected] and if he hits reply it will come back addressed to [email protected] Arghhhhhhhhhhh! I have tried everything but for the life of me can't see where the issue lies. Incidentally the same happens if I use the charlie account.
I am using OSX 10.8.4 with Mail version 6.5 (1508)
Any help/pointers would be appreciated, thanks in advance,
Phil

Assuming that these really are three gmail accounts, in Mail > Preferences > Accounts Click on the down arrow for SMTP server, select Edit SMTP Server list and be sure you have a separate SMTP listing and name for each of the three accounts together with a username and password for each occurance of SMTP.gmail.com. Then in account information for each account, be sure you have the correct SMTP server selected and "Use only this server" checked.

  • Multiple email accounts and mail check frequency

    If I understand correctly, I can have multiple email accounts on the iPhone, one for work, one personal for example. Is it possible to have distinct update settings, or to easily take one offline? Say I don't want my work email retrieved during the weekend. We're all set to do the family thing with iPhones, but this question came up. With my Treo I frequently turn only one or the other of the accounts on, depending on what I'm doing.
    How distinct are the accounts? I assume the mail is in separate accounts as on the desktop?
    Thanks

    Thanks. That's good news.
    In Mail app I have one account, with two different "from" addresses set. I select the proper address depending if I'm writing family or a mailing list. Is that same feature available as it is on the desktop?

  • Is there a way to have multiple email accounts in mail but only get notifications for one account?

    I would like to add my junk email account to mail for quick access, but I don't want to see notifications (or the number of unread emails).  The options I can find are notifications for all accounts or none.  On my iphone, I can select the notification level for each email address, but I can't find this option for my mac. 

    Hi,
    Yes the smart mailbox you set up was a very basic one. I tells Mail to display anything that is assigned to that account. So if you move an email from say the inbox of that account, to another folder of the same account, then the smart mailbox will not look any different as it is looking at the whole account.
    In reality, you never need to use or look at this smart mailbox and you can continue to keep looking at the normal inboxes as you always have, but the Dock icon will only update according to unread emails anywhere in that account.
    If you would like to refine what the smart mailbox looks at, say the inbox only of that account, then you add another rule to the smart mailbox.
    Edit the smart mailbox
    hit '+' next to the first rule
    Add the new rule
    Now the smart mailbox will only display what is in the inbox of that account

  • Multiple Email Accounts on Mail

    morning all,
    I have a MACBook Pro Retina 2013 model running Software  OS X 10.9.4 (13E28). I have set up all of my email accounts (3 of them) in the default Mail program on the MAC. When I create a mail it always uses (defaults) to my yahoo account, however I always want it to use my Gmail account. I have looked in preferences and cannot see a way of changing this.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers,
    Carl

    Mail Preferences>Composing:
    Set 'Send new messages from' to the desired account.

  • Multiple Email Accounts using MS Mail

    I want to setup multiple email accounts using MS mail.  My already has an account, but I want to add an account for my son.  I've added the account on verizon and in MS mail.  However, I want to have completly separate accounts so that when my son opens his email  he only see his email and when my wife opens her email, she only sees her email.  Right now, when MS mail is opened both their emails come up and when they send an email, they must select which email account they are sending from.
    Does anyone know how to do this?

    One option would be to not use MS Mail (I assume you really mean Windows Live Mail?).   You could create accounts for them and have them just use the Web mail interface to get to their mail.
    Another option would be to give each person their own "user account" on your machine instead of all logging into the computer as the same userid.   If you do this, any mail settings will remain with the individual account.

  • How to setup multiple email accounts on one apple device It syncs to the rest of my apple devices?

    I have a Macbook pro (10.8.2), iPad 4 (6.0.1), and iPhone 5 (6.0.1).
    I have multiple email accounts set up on my iPhone:
    3X Work

    They use Gmail and Microsoft exchange.
    Is it possible to have all these accounts automatically created on my ipad and Macbook without typing in all info again?
    Heres a visual:
    I hope this makes it a little more clear.
    I'm sure in the time it took me to type this, I could've manually added all the accounts to the devices lol
    Oh, and iCloud > Mail is enabled on all devices.
    Thanks for any and all help!

    Your post is a bit open ended....
    First thing - You need to decide if you want to use virtual domains or not.
    If
         [email protected]
         [email protected]
         [email protected]
    all should be separate mailboxes, then you need virtual domains.
    If those 3 addresses can all go to the same mailbox, then you don't.
    If you don't need virtual domains, then don't use them... things are simpler without that feature.
    If thats the case, in the domain name field in Mail service, enter your primary domain.
    You'll then need to enter your other domains via command line.
    First, check your mail domain setting with:
    sudo serveradmin settings mail:postfix:mydomain
    Here is how you enter more than one domain:
    - Quit the Server app
    - Issue this with your domains between the quotes
    sudo serveradmin settings mail:postfix:mydomain = "domain1.com, domain2.com"
    - Restart postfix to activate your change
    sudo postfix reload
    If you open the Server app, you will notice both domains are now listed.

  • Multiple email accounts to MfE?

    Hi,
    quick question: is it possible to get multiple email accounts installed to Mail for Exchange phone client? If not will there a possibility for this in the future?
    Any workarounds for this issue? All help is highly appreciated. We are using E90 models.

    With www.seven.com you can have multiple accounts, but only one can be exchange or notus lotes (to sync contacts, calendar,etc). In addition, you can add accounts for gmail, yahoo, aol, pop, imap, etc. IMHO Seven is better than MFE or Roadsync.

  • Using multiple email accounts, smtp from provider, sender's address is the same for all email accounts

    Ok
    I'm sure this is an issue for many of us, but I cant find a solution for this on the net.
    So I had set up multiple email accounts. My main account is gmail, but I'm using several others. The smtp server had to be the same which was from my ISP for all email accounts (apart from gmail which has it's own).
    Now, when I send email from these accounts, the sender's address will always be ***@virginmedia.co.uk. Obviously, since thats what the smtp is for.
    But what if I want to send emails from these accounts and want to be the sender accordingly? like ***@yahoo.com or ***@freemail.com etc...
    Is there a way to get around these? If they dont have their own smtp servers? Or they can only be used to send emails through their web-based email page?
    Hope it makes sense, sorry for my crap english.
    Thanks
    Daniel

    Can you tell us which is the mail account ( hotmail, gmail or any personal)

  • Multiple email accounts but receiving emails through 1 account all the time

    I have a multiple email accounts set up (called email 1,2,3 and 4 for simplicity) through BIS. Every time I receive an email message irrespective of the email address its sent to it is received through just one account all the time (Email 3). For example somebody sends me a message using the email 1 adress. Its received through email 3. If i hit reply to sender the reply is sent through email 3 (i cannot change this). If I forward the response rather than reply to the response I have the option to send it through email 1,2,3 or 4. If i delete the email 3 account I do not receive any emails. Have tried changing phone, sim card, deleting and resending service books, all email settings and defaults set to email account 1 etc. Has anyone seen this before or does anyone have any suggestions..........

  • Can Multiple email accounts on Galaxy S4 sync with iCloud & non-iCloud email?

    Hello… has anyone successfully set up multiple email accounts (iCloud/Yahoo/AT&T/etc.) on their Samsung Galaxy S4 Jelly Bean 4.2? I searched the forums and it has been said that configuration settings depend on the combination of wireless service provider + device model + email providers + Android version.
    My S4 is from AT&T and if this scenario can't work, I have to cancel my contract in a few days (although that would be the last resort). From checking the forums, not everyone has been able to get the S4 to work with iCloud. In my case, I hope to sync up with iCloud and non-iCloud email which might be trickier.
    Here is one thread that helps with settings, but doesn't seem to address multiple or non-iCloud accounts: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22435596#22435596
    Some background info…
    Although Gmail just works on Android devices, I plan to primarily use Apple/Yahoo/AT&T email (at least initially).
    I don’t yet have Apple mail/iCloud, but plan to. I am partially switched to the Mac (Mtn Lion), but haven’t completed the jump from Windows.
    I don’t have an iPhone (so hopefully that makes the setup less complicated.)
    I mostly care about email on the S4 (I’m not concerned about syncing up contacts, calendar, music, etc.).
    Apologies for the long post, but hopefully I’ve included the necessary background info for the questions below:
    Is it possible to setup multiple (iCloud/Yahoo/AT&T) emails on the Samsung Galaxy S4 from AT&T so that they sync nicely?
    From the S4, if I reply to an email, will the Sender in the email reply be the same account which received the email? Or, (as I’ve read in the excerpt below) will the Sender for all email replies from the S4 be set from a fixed/primary account?
    Although the first two questions above are the most urgent for now, I'd appreciate pointers if you see something that should be changed in the configuration settings below.
    Thanks in advance!

    After spending quite some time trying to get my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II setup with iCloud mail, this is what finally worked. Thanks to everyone for the various bits that helped lead me in the right direction. For those who need lots of detail, I hope the below helps. Please don't ask me about any other specific Android phones as I'm not expert but thought someone out there could benefit from my experience. 
    INCOMING SERVER SETTINGS
    User Name: username (do not enter @me,com or @mac.com)
    Password: (enter your password)
    IMAP server: imap.mail.me.com
    Security type: SSL
    Port: 993
    IMAP path prefix: p##- (you can find this by checking your account settings on your Mac. Mine was p03- so that's what I entered here)
    Press NEXT
    OUTGOING SERVER SETTINGS
    SMTP server: smtp.mail.me.com
    Security type: TLS
    Port: 587
    check the box next to "Require sign-in" if it's not already checked
    User name: username  (do not enter @me.com or @mac.com)
    Password (enter your password)
    Press NEXT
    Your phone will check the server settings and you should be able to see your email now.
    And another poster provided these additional tips…
    Definitely select SSL/TLS and accept all certificates
    Now here's the zinger: Authentication should be LOGIN
    After figuring this out, I finally (after many hours of searching and testing) got to my outgoing server settings, which are: smtp.me.com
    NONE for security type
    Tic "Require Sign-in"
    Authentication is PLAIN
    And another poster's question about the Sender's email address for multiple accounts…
    Managed to get this all set up however, Android only seems to allow you to send from your primary address and only reply from your primary address even if a mail was sent to one of the other addresses.
    Any ideas how to get around this as I have three addresses beneath my primary which I need to both send from and reply from.

    You're unlikely to find many people with experience of configuring multiple email accounts on a specific Samsung device, here on the Apple forum for an Apple service. Try the Samsung forums for help setting up your Samsung phone.
    There are a few posts with general info relating to setting up an iCloud email account on Android here if you search though.

  • How do I access multiple email accounts

    I just got my Bionic a few days ago and have set up multiple email accounts (work, gmail, yahoo).  When I click the "email" icon only one account appears.  I can't seem to find the inbox, etc for any of the other accounts.  The only time I can find those messages is when a new message comes in and I get notified of it.  Then I can catch the other messages.
    How do I access the inboxes for all the accounts?  This must be obvious but i'm missing it.

    Questions are typically followed by a question mark. My answer answered your question.
    Firefox doesn't do email, so there are no "Firefox email accounts". If you are accessing "email" with Firefox, you are using web mail. Some web mail services don't allow for direct access, they want their users to access their email from a "portal" or "main" page and will re-direct any attempt to load an "internal" web site page back to the main page.
    As far as loading 3 different web mail accounts at the same time, if they are in the same domain it won't work on Firefox without a Firefox addon. http://br.mozdev.org/multifox/
    IOW, if those three email accounts all with Yahoo, without that add-on you would have to logon to each email account separately and log out of the first before logging into the 2nd. Then log out of the 2nd before logging into the 3rd. Firefox isn't capable of having multiple session cookies for simultaneous logon's to the same server. That add-on provides that "multiple sessions cookies" feature.
