Multiple Email Addresses don't seem to work in Profile Manager

I have an email account that has multiple email addresses that filter into it. I have previously been able to configure this directly on the device by entering two email addresses in the address field, separated by a comma, which had to be pasted into the field since the keyboard did not allow it.
I was hoping that as I moved to Profile Manager to manage my device configuration, this would make it easier to manage these settings. However, when I enter the same into the address field in the profile manager, the profile is pushed to the device, and the device is subsequently unable to send email (Asks me to look at the email settings). It also does not allow me to select a from address, which leads me to believe it is interpreting the whole field as a single address.
Is there a good way to setup an account that allows sending from multiple from addresses using the profile manager?

Unfortunately, I just tested it again, and it's still not working. I did check the outgoing mail settings, and those look correct. Moreover, the settings look like they would if I had typed them myself into the device, except they are greyed out because they came from the profile.
So a few more details/questions which may or may not help...
- Does it matter if there is a space between the email addresses? I have tried it both ways I think, but right now I'm testing it without a space. (i.e. Email Address: [email protected],[email protected])
- If I turn Auto BCC on - then in the BCC field it shows [email protected],[email protected], -- if I then try to send an email, first it prompts me that it looks like an invalid email address and am I sure I want to send. If I click OK, it finally tells me it cannot send the email, and that I should check my email settings.
- Does it matter what kind of profile this is in? I'm currently configuring this as part of settings for a particular user, but wonder if it might work if I configured it some other way (such as setting multiple email addresses for the user elsewhere, and then using the setttings for everyone).
- For clarification @Eldrik - you are tying the email addresses into profile manager, right, and not for example leaving it blank to type into on the device?
Thanks,
Chip

An alternate email address is not the same thing as a rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

Multiple Email Accounts Don't Seem Possible. Yet Mail Help Says It is!

Hi,
If you go to the Mail help menu and type in "multiple", the result shows that you can enter multiple email address into an account during setup, separated by commas. Great if you have several emails under the same domain ([email protected], [email protected], etc.)
The problem is this - the User Name is the full email address, so although I can enter my four email addresses under one domain, I cannot enter them as four separate user names, only one will work.
Am I missing something here? It's got me confused!
Thanks for any replies.
Hugh

Using an IMAP e-mail where you have several email addresses say ,...... @mac.com, ,[email protected] and [email protected] all pointing at the same server inbox yes you can use the comma separation method.
Emails sent to any of those addresses arrive on your computer altogether as YOU have just ONE user name !
If however you have differing POP and/or IMAP accounts each with differing user names POP inboxes and even SMTP sending systems you will have to set up each email account one by one.
Mail will allow you to have them combined into a single inbox on your computer.
You will also notice a triangle appears to the left of the inbox ,click on this and you will be presented with individual account inboxes within the main inbox

I am sending emails to a Smart Group created in my address book. The contact in my address book has multiple email addresses. Is there a way for the email to go to both addresses? (ex: work and home email address under one contact)

In my address book, I have contacts that have multiple email addresses. (ex: home and work) I have created a smart group off of the company name in the contact. When I send emails, I want it to go to both email address listed in the contact. Is there a way to make this happen? Or do I have to have a separate contact for each email address?

I will agree with you on this one. Version 31 and all the fixes so far are a mess. Since I have been here answering questions for a little more than a year now I have learned to wait to upgrade until all the dust settles. I see no end to the dust storm version 31 has caused. I am still on version 24.6 and plan on staying there for the duration. At least until the developers comes to their senses and put out a working product.

My husband and I both have an iPhone and we share an iPad. We also share the same email address so how would this work with iCloud because we don't share all the same contacts?

An icloud account is designed to be used by one user. That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) . When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device. You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc. itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.

VIP selection will not work on contact with multiple email addresses

Trying to add more people to my VIP list. When selecting a name that has multiple email addresses, I select the address I want added and selection will not "stick" or accept that contact to VIP list.
Help?

Hiya!
Well first off... I'm baffled that you succeeded in setting up personal email without a data plan.
You need a data plan to access the BIS network which allows you web browsing (off wifi), email, BBM and the like.

Submit button with multiple email addresses doesn't work while the same form with one email address does. The multi email version works on windows computer.

The email comes up when I press the "Submit" button but the email to field is blank.

Hi,
What is the separator character between two email addresses? Is it a comma (,) semicolon(;) or something else?
According to the mailto URI scheme (RFC 6068), you need to use a comma (,) to separate multiple email addresses.
You can see the third example in the following Wikipedia page.
mailto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Would you double check the mailto value in your PDF form?

Do I need Open Directory for multiple email addresses for Calendar users?

Hey all,
I have a single mac mini which I use simply as a calendar server for +/- 20 users. One day I might use Profile Manager to manage their iOS devices too. On the initial installation, we enabled Open Directory, although I'm not sure that it's required, and we have no plans re using it to manage network logins etc aside from existing calendaring.
I'm working through a migration from a Lion Server.app install to Mavericks, and due to some data corruption issues, we'll probably just rebuild the server and reimport the users calendars.
On my existing Lion Server installation, I can still use workgroup manager to assign multiple email addresses to calendar users, so that when a user invites another user to a calendar event using any of their email addresses (we have several variations), the invitation still gets pushed to the correct calendar user.
On Mavericks, without installing Open Directory, it seems I can't do this (I've downloaded Workgroup Manager for Mavericks, but it obviously can't connect to a local open directory). If Open Directory is optional, I'd rather not install it, to avoid overhead and complexity, but I still need a way to manage these multiple email addresses (aliases doesn't cut it).
Any ideas / suggestions?
Thanks,
D

For Calendar server to send actual email invitations to an attendee, two things must happen:
First, you need to configure Server.app > Calendar > Enable invitations by email. Enabling that will bring up a wizard dialog that will step you through the IMAP and SMTP account settings. The default values in that wizard will tell Calendar server to use the local Mail server (which you then would have to configure to use the appropriate SMTP relay, etc.). Or you can change the wizard settings to refer to an external IMAP and SMTP server. It is wise to use a dedicated IMAP account for Calendar server's use -- don't go using someone's personal IMAP account because there might be some "undesirable interactions", let's say. If you need help configuring this for, say, a Gmail account, I can help with that.
Second, the email address for the attendee must *not* be known to Calendar server, i.e. it should *not* be in the Directory. As you probably found out, if Calendar server sees that the attendee has an email address that is in the Directory, the attendee is considered to be "local" and the invitation will be delivered directly to the attendee's calendar client. If you simply leave those other email variations out of the Directory, Calendar server will consider that attendee "remote" and will send an actual email with a special attachment that calendar clients can understand.
Hope that helps.

Multiple email address with one server account

Why can't Mail have multiple email addresses on one email account? Like Thunderbird calls them Identities. As I remember, Outlook also supports this. I like Mail but it seems rather dated and clunky in this respect.
I am using mainly IMAP so maybe I should switch to Thunderbird but I do still have some old messages in pop accounts in Mail.

You can have multiple accounts, but only one "identity." Configure new mail accounts for all the different email addresses you may have. They can each have different configurations, different servers, etc. as well as be individually made active or inactive. All incoming mail will funnel into a single Inbox, but you can use rules to transfer incoming mail to separate mailboxes based on the account.
What you cannot have are distinct "personalities."
Bear in mind that Mail is intended for a single user and the vast number of single users only have one email account. I actually have four different email addresses but three of them are set to forward mail to the account I use with Mail. Mail works quite well with IMAP, POP, and Outlook mail accounts.

How can I add multiple email addresses to Address Book?
Can it be done from an .xlsx file?

I have tried that, but the system reads the emails as one long email and I can't find any way of separating them - it ignores spaces, colons and I have also tried putting them through a word doc... still does not work. It works perfectly easily on a PC system!! ( I have just moved to a mac!)
any ideas would be good
thanks

Submit completed form to multiple email addresses

I am working with Acrobat 9 Pro and creating a pdf enquiry form to place on a website.
I need the form when submitted to be sent to 4 email addresses so that it can be properly assessed. Each of those recipients needs to be able to add the response to a response file, so I need to 'distribute' the form.
I can make is submit to multiple email addresses (having seen a previous post) by adding a submit button, enabling the extended features and not distributing. This is not a suitable solution, though, as it doesn't allow the recipient to add to the response file.
Whatever I try, I can only get it to send to the single email address shown in 'Preferences', so I'm stumped. Obviously I can set up an autoforward from a single account to the others, but that seems a clunky way of doing what should be a simple task.

There are a few ways to do this.
Set up E-mail Notifications and to enable the "Include submitted data" option. (E-mail Notifications settings are in the Options tab)
Share the responses by making the other person a Co-author, Contributor or Reader. The differences in account levels are explained here.
Share the repsonses by using Publish Responses feature. This will allow you to send out a URL that will display the View Responses and/or the Summary Report to anyone that has your URL. Further details are here.

How do I add multiple email addresses for a contact to a group?

(I'm a recent convert from eMailer to Outlook Express, to Entourage, and finally to Mail.app)
I'm trying to set up a group in Address Book that includes multiple email addresses from a given card. These are folks that want me to include, for example, both their work and home email addresses when I send to this particular group.
I see that Address Book has the ability to use "Edit Distribution List..." to select one email address for a given card/contact, but I can't get it to allow me to use two or three for a given card.
I suppose for now I can just create a duplicate card, and pick one address from each.
Is there a better way?

Sorry, but Address Book does not allow you to select more than one email address to send to in a group. There's really no reason why people need multiple copies of a message, anyway; they have the option of forwarding email to another email address of theirs.

Can i send to multiple email addresses for the same contact

I coach a baseball team and I want to create contacts under the kids' names with email addresses for both parents listed. Can I send email to multiple email addresses listed inside the same contact? I hope this makes sense.
Thanks!

You can do it individually, but it can also be done with Groups in Contacts, but you will need to create two or more groups. Once you have created the Groups in Contacts, drag the contacts that have multiple email addresses into each group. Then, select Edit Distribution List… from the Edit menu in Contacts.
For each group, select one address or the other for each contact. Do the same for the other group.
When you address an email, add both Groups to the address field in Mail.
