Netscape account on mail application.... servers??

i have an email account at netscape.com, and i am having some trouble setting it up with Mail. i do not know what the incoming and outgoing servers are, and i cannot get the email to work with Mail. does anyone know how to set this up??? thanks

I don't think you can access Netscape via an email client, only through their web-based pages. Possible someone knows a plugin to bypass this, similar to the way Hotmail is accessed from Mail.

How Can I Change Default Mail Account in Mail Application?

I have 2 Gmail accounts. Gmail1 and Gmail2. When I changed the password of my Gmail1 account - which used to be my default mail account - it changed in the Mail application so that now Gmail2 is my default mail account.
I know that usually you can go
Preferences -> Accounts -> And on the list on the left you can just drag the mail account you want to be the default account to the top of the list. But it doesn't work. It's just not possible to move them around on the list, they are all stuck.
Can anyone help me understand why I can't reorder my mail accounts, or if there is another way to which I can change my default mail account?
Thanks.

Hey wilhel10002,
Thanks for the question. My answer to your question relies on what you determine to be the default account. If it is simply which account is at the top of the list, yes you can re-order the accounts in the sidebar as needed (not from Mail > Preferences > Accounts).
However, I personally perceive the default account as the account that I send new messages from. This behavior can be adjusted in Mail > Preferences > Composing > Send new messages from
Mail (Mountain Lion): Composing preferences

Offline MobileMe account on Mail application

Hi
I have been a MobileMe customer and mac user for several years. I use my Mail app for multiple email accounts. Yesterday my MobileMe account within Mail app went offline, and seems adamant that it will not return online.
I have tried deleting the MobileMe account in Mail app, restarting and re-creating ... but did not work ... error message appeared at first screen (with name, email, password).
I have a substantial number of folders/emails on the MobileMe server, and have lost access to these too.
My MobileMe account continues to be successfully accessed through me.com and also via my wife's laptop and my ipod touch. Therefore problem seems local to mail app on my imac rather than mobileme account or isp.
Any guidance most welcomed.

Cannot send email vial MAIL application in Tiger

1. When sending email using .mac account in MAIL application, my password is not accepted. The email is deposited in the outbox and is not sent (no whooshing sound). And no reflection of the email is in the sent box.
2. When sending email using an alternative earthlink account, my password is accepted and the email is sent with whooshing sound, and reflection of sent email is found in the sent box.
3. Within MAIL, I notice that my .mac address is "Cristino Vicerra Jr Cristino Vicerra Jr <[email protected]>" (name is repeated twice); and that my .mac account is "[email protected]@mac.com" . Is this a significant to my problem of not being able to send email? How can I correct this?
Can anyone help me? Thanks

Cristino,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Please read the following Knowledge base article, and try changing to Port 587, or if that fails change to use the SMTP provided by your ISP as the Outgoing server in the .mac account. See:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=166743

"Command-i" which was so useful in being able to selectively delete messages from the servers no longer works. Is their a replacement? Will it be fixed? Or should I change my mail application?

"Command-i" which was so useful for selectively deleting messages from servers has disappeared in Maverick. I wonder if it has been replaced by something else or should I look into other mail applications.

Hmmm. Which Mail program are you referring to?
in Mac Mail command -i used to bring up the Account info pane on the server (10.8.5)
Now it seems you have to use the gear at the bottom in "Mail Activity" to get the drop down (10.9) :

Outlook Express and Netscape/Default e-mail account

I have recently replaced my Internet Explorer with Netscape 7.02. When I send an e-mail from a website on Netscape, it prompts me to set up a new account to send the e-mail. IE always launched Outlook Express when I sent an e-mail from a website. Outlook Express is designated as my default e-mail account in Control Panels. Netscape support has been of no help. Can I get Netscape to go to my Outlook Express to send e-mails from websites or must I use the e-mail application that comes with the Netscape?

Greg,
Trouble is that having changed mine to OE a longtime ago I'm not sure that what I see is what you see.
Having gone to about:config do you see network.protocol-handler.external.mailto if you scroll down? I do, but that may be because I have changed already.
If you do see it control-click on it and a drop down menu will come up in which you choose New > Boolean. Having chosen that enter network.protocol-handler.external.mailto when prompted then follow the instructions in the link I gave.
If you don't see it (and it sounds as though you don't) just control-click anywhere on the page and do the same.
Sorry I can't be more precise, it's ages since I did mine.

Try a search... I'm sure if you put forth a little effort you can find a solution that will work for you.

What is it with the application "mail" and the Yahoo mail servers that is in conflict all the time. We have reconfigured the settings and done everything possible and the "mail" application is still conflicted.... Running Lion 10.7.4

I know it is a pretty long question and am unsure if it can be answered, but have had just a lot of trouble with the Yahoo mail servers... Where could a man go and get the mail application, I can not find it in the app store. It is my thought maybe to just replace the app I have with another mail application and reconfigure everything and go from there. But I do not know where the mail application can be found.

See this blog posting for Yahoo mail set-up details for the Apple Mail.app tool.

My mail application was working fine, I shut down and when I restarted it is asking me to set it up again. I dont want to loose any information on my mail and I had a lot of accounts on it. . what can I do?

I found all my files from my old account in the users folder but when I logged out there was no option to sign in on the old account, I'm guessing ill just have to start from scratch, which is fine as long as my old files aren't lost :) thanks for the help.
I'll explore more once I get my screen fixed and there might be a way to recover my old account :)

Could not load Internet Accounts preference, iCloud pane and Mail application

Hello
I have 3 problem.
Could not load Internet Accounts preference pane.
Could not load iCloud preference pane.
I also can't open the Mail application.
I already tried to log in as guest user, I can open everything in guest user. So guest user have no problem.
I also tried to log in in safe mode, nothing was working. So I guess I have problem with the admin user.
I also reinstall the operating system and nothing change.
Please any help?
Thank you.
Hind.

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Mail Application doesn't keep data of my Yahoo mail account

Hello! I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS Lion (10.7.3) and in the last two weeks I face the following problem with the Mail application and my Yahoo mail account: although the account appears in the side bar of the application and it will search for new messages when I launch the Mail app, it doesn't load any messages and I also realised that all Mailboxes of the named account are blank! The messages appear normally when I reach my account through the Yahoo page! I tried to remove and re-import the account in the Mail app, but it just worked for two days and now the Mailboxes are blank again! I have no problems with the other two mail accounts I reach through the same application (both POP accounts). Any possible solution?

What I would like to add is that the problem only appeared last week, without doing anything ... I have had no such problems since September I got the computer ...

Email deleted in Mail application reappears in Windows Live Mail account.

I use a @hotmail.com account and check my emails on the Mail application in my iPod touch.
I scan and delete those mails on the move.
However, to my dismay, the same mails are not deleted from the inbox when I access my @hotmail.com account via Windows Live Mail.
HELP! Why is there a problem with the sync! I do not have the luxury of spending so much time checking and deleting my emails!

Sorry, no answer here; but the same problem.
Only we're on a Mac with a Comcast internet mail provider.
If we use the 'Mail' software on the Mac, we have it set up to pull those emails (or delete them within a week) from the Comcast site.
However, using the 'Mail' software on the iPod Touch and retrieving and/or deleting them on the iPod doesn't delete messages from Comcast's website, no matter how long.
Same question - is there a way to setup the iPod to pull emails out of the provider's site? Who has time to delete emails twice through 2 different sources?
Thanks in advance

Mail application - Yahoo account

Hey there!
After having my iPod i went and purchased the update which is great apart from the mail application. This is because i have tried to use it with my Yahoo account which is fine for recieving mail but unfortunately i cant send any! When i try to do so it says:
*Cannot Send Mail*
The connection to the outgoing
server "(null)" failed.
I am really satisfied with the product otherwise and was wondering if anyone has had the same problem as i have and if there are any solutions to overcoming the problem!
Thanks in advance!

What do you have set as the outgoing mail server for your yahoo account, on the ipod? Sounds like there is nothing set. Have you tried erasing the yahoo account completely from your ipod, then adding a new account, by using the yahoo preset.

Note that you lose privacy when using Gmail (and Yahoo):
Gmail and Yahoo both scan users' emails. They do algorithmic analysis of your email messages, targeting ads that relate to the content of your messages.

I am switching accounts with my brother (long story why) but I need to remove my emails from the Mail application. I removed my Gmail account but when I try to remove my iCloud email it still keeps the emails. Does anyone know to remove a iCloud email?
