...No Mail "Bounce" in Lion?

Hellllllp please? I get so much junk mail from the same person repeatedly on a certain email account of mine. I thought "hey, why not add the account in Mail, and bounce the email so it'll show that it's not the right email or something...?"
So I merged it in, and was just about to bounce the email when I noticed... the "bounce" option was gone with OS Lion!
...Need I say more? I'm wondering how to get this dude off my back, and even moreso, just would love to know if there's still a feature like this in Mail. It would really come in handy right about now...

here is a bounce add on that works. I've been using it and it's great. Just be sure to restart Mail after you install it and the bounce icon will show up.

How can I change order of email accounts in Mail on Mountain Lion?

In Mail on Mountain Lion I have only two email accounts, but the wrong one has been set as default (because it was an account I had overlooked and added later). I cannot find how to change the order of the email accounts. One possibility is to delete the non-default account and re-add it, so that it becomes the most recent and thus (presumably) the default, but this would delete all the email messages in that account, which I cannot afford.
It's a great flaming pain to try to remember each email I write to select the second account option, and yet I can find no way to change email account order---not in Mail and not in System Preferences. Dragging them certainly does not work.
Can Apple have really missed this? Is there any solution?

Comfortable with terminal...know how to edit using TextEdit:
Open up a Terminal and use the following commands to change your Mail.app preferences file to an XML format – the default format is binary, and you can't edit this.
cd ~/Library/Preferences
plutil -convert xml1 com.apple.mail.plist
Then, open this file com.apple.mail.plist with a text editor of your choice, preferably one that highlights XML syntax, but you can also use TextEdit:
open -a "TextEdit" com.apple.mail.plist
Now, look for the key called MailAccounts. It's value is an array, with dict children. Here, you'll find all your mail accounts in the order they were created in.
You can now manually move these dict children around. Save the XML file and reopen Mail. Now, your Mail account order will be changed.

What is happening with quote substitution in Mail since Mountain Lion?

What is happening with quote substitution in Mail since Mountain Lion? Now, whenever I type an apostrophe and it's replaced with a smart quote, it creates an unwanted space within my word and starts typing from there. It will also revert the font from my template style to helvetica. Annoying as heck! Any thoughts? Turning off smart quote substition in Mail elimates the error, but elimates the smart qoute, too. I'm stumped.

Exporting OS X Mail from Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I partitioned my iMac HD to have two partitions: Macintosh HD has Mountain Lion; I reinstalled Snow Leopard on Macintosh HD 2. Best part: you can access your user-created files from EITHER disk partition. But not so OS X Mail. I wanted to revert to Snow Leopard, since I don't like the iOS-like Mountain Lion (swipe THIS!), but Mail was a problem since all my Snow Leopard Mail was successfully migrated over to Mountain Lion during upgrade. But I think I found a way to Export Mail from ML to (a clean install of) SL.
Try this:
1. Open Mail in ML. For each folder you wish to have back in SL, Export it to your ML Desktop as an .mbox file. Depending on the folder size, this can take from a few seconds to several minutes. You'll see an .mbox icon for the particular folder on your Desktop. If the word "partial" appears between the folder name and the .mbox suffix, wait a few moments for the Export to complete, at which time the word "partial" will disappear. E.g., for a folder named "Mary", if it's a huge one, the icon will first appear as "Mary.partial.mbox"; when the Export is done, you'll see "Mary.mbox".
2. When you've Exported all your desired folders as above, you can exit ML and re-start your Mac in SL. Open Mail in Snow Leopard, and once again, for each file you just Exported in ML to the Desktop there, select "Import Data From Apple Mail" and choose the folder from the Desktop in ML to which your mboxes were Exported. When the Import starts, you can see via a progress bar how far along it is. When done, you'll see a new folder in your SL Mail called "Import"; click on it to reveal the folder you just Imported!
3. Then drag the folder you just Imported out of the Import folder to "On My Mac" in SL Mail; you can then delete the Import folder.
4. Repeat until all your folders are where you want them (in SL).
5. When you have time, go back into ML and clear all those .mbox files from your Desktop.
There MAY be an easier way, but this is what worked for me.

The iOS view vs classic view in Mail is not the problem; I've already configured for classic view.
Mountain Lion itself is.
My short list (to date) of crappy Mountain Lion behavior; items marked with a double asterisk (**)represent the worst of Mountain Lion for me.
** No up/down arrows in scroll bar slider;
Expose` not as easy to navigate as in Snow Leopard;
Mail does not request passwords for either receive or send;
No "Save Draft" icon in Mail compose window (workaround: use command-s);
"Save As" selection missing in most app menus;
No separate Search window in Safari (workaround: use Firefox or Opera);
** Can't export Mail from Mountain Lion into Snow Leopard if downgrading (I compiled this list before I stumbled on the method in this thread, but I'd prefer to effect this with Unix symbolic links);
iWork 09 seems to have "circled the wagons" re compatibility with MS Office or LibreOffice (workaround: just use Libreoffice);

How to configure google apps in Mail 5 of lion os x not as gmail but as exchange

Hi All,
I have been trying hard online to find some resource to configure google apps in Mail 5 of lion os x not as gmail but as exchange.
The reason is that I want to sync my contacts as well as calendar and email but if configured as gmail ot only takes email and may be calendar.
I use this over all my devices and need my calendars and contacts to be synced all over
I called the customer support in USA but they directed me to call a UK number.
Appreciate your guide line, or feedback with an online resource.
Best regards,
fawzy

think i set it up like exchange but calendars doesn't sync and AB no sure,you also can do it in system preferences in the mail,calendars pane ..

Mini calendar in mail missing after Lion installation

mini calendar in mail missing after Lion installation

>After installing Lion (intel I-Mac 2g ram). My Microsoft Office 2004 no longer runs.
Upgrade to a Universal compatible version of Office or equivalent. http://www.neooffice.org/ is the least expensive alternative, though importing Entourage into iCal, Mac OS X Mail, and Addressbook works best if the data was exported from Entourage while still in Snow Leopard.
>Also, when I select "printer friendly" pages in Safari or Firefox, I get a "missing plugin" message.
When you upgraded, did you make sure that Safari was installed in the Applications folder? If not, you may have to redownload Safari from http://www.apple.com/safari/ as it happens to be the same version. Firefox double check is already Lion compatible. For more on upgrading to Lion, see my FAQ*:

Delayed email delivery using mail app in Lion

I'm having issues with delayed email delivery using the mail app in Lion. Specifically I have an IMAP account (AOL) that is working fine on other macs running snow leopard and on both an iPhone and an iPad. I receive an email that shows up on all other devices but does not get delivered on the Macbook Air. Clicking get new messages does not delivery the email, even if other emails have been delivered in the interim. The only way to get the email to show up is to exit Mail and restart it - and then the email shows up, in the correct date/time order and the correct read status (since I had already read it on another device).
This has happened twice now with my AOL account in the past 24 hours (I've only had the new Macbook Air since Monday). It might also be happening on my other IMAP email accounts but I have not noticed it yet. It's intermittant as I've received many other emails correctly and ontime.
Anyone else seeing something similar? I've never seen this with earlier versions of Mac OS X or on devices running iOS.
This is a Macbook Air running Lion 10.7.1. I have 4 IMAP accounts set up. Mail is set to check for email once a minute and I have my IMAP accounts set to use the IDLE command.

I have the same problem, some photos are not loaded completely and partly grey. This occurs only in Mail.app but not in the web interface of the email provider. Did you find a solution, Florian? Does somebody else have a suggestion?
Greetings from Finland

Printed Text is Small with Mail.app in Lion

Has anyone been able to adjust the font size of the PRINT in Mail while using Lion? I swear I feel stupid, but I can't seem to adjust this all.
I have to print out an email and the text is soooo small. It's like 3pt. Adjusting the message view font in prefs doesn't change a thing, nor does changing the print options like "Scale to Fit", "Rewrap Message to Fit", "Keep the Same Apparent Font Size", etc.
I have the conversation view selected, but I opened a single email as well, and it ALWAYS prints like 3pt making the text unreadable.
I finally had to forward the email to gmail and print from gmail. Sad.
Any ideas on how to adjust the PRINT font size only?

Yes, I tried this as well.
If I increase the scale to let's say 400%, it does increase the font size, but makes the text no longer appdear on one page. It will change the flow of the text so that half a sentence on the right is cut off, and the remaining text is on the next page.
In other words, it doesn't work.
Just in case this helps, I'm printing to a HP 4240n, but I don't think that would be it.
Even saving to a PDF in the print dialog causes the same issue.
Does anyone print emails from Mail.app in Lion? Am I the only one?

Using Gmail through Mail in Mountain Lion - issue with inbox syncing across multiple machines

Hi. I am using Gmail through Mail in Mountain Lion on my iMac, as well as Mail in my iPad and iPhone. Generally speaking Mail seems to sync well across the three machines. However for some reason when I view an email in my inbox on either my iPhone or my iPad, the inbox on my iMac does not reflect the fact the email has been read: ie, while the email is marked as having been 'read' across both my iPad and iPhone, it remains 'unread' on my iMac. It is really frustrating and stuffs up the process managing the flow of emails. Is anyone able to help me please? Thanks so much.
Best
Jordan

Hi SB. Thanks for your advice. I checked and I am using the recommended settings. I'm still not sure how to fix this. It's very irritating! I will read an email on my ipad, then hit my imac and see that the email is sitting unread in my Mail inbox.

Can I reinstall Mail.app on Lion 10.7?

After trying to import my mail from Snow Leopard, my Mail.app in Lion 10.7 has become unresponsive – I can't open a Message Viewer Window, nor can I open preferences to make changes to my accounts.
I'd like to reinstall Mail, but can't find a way to do this. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Hello,
I had the same problem this morning. After ugrading to 10.7.4 Mail.app could not import the messages, and hence, never started.
The failure message stated "The import failed. An error occurred during the import. Make sure you have available space in your home folder and try again." There was no other option button but "Quit." So I quited, checked, and confirmed there were 414.19 GB available; and I used Finder and System Report for this purpose. Afterwards I tried again. The failure persisted.
Ironically I wan't able to neither read from Webmail, nor access Mail.app. So I confirmed with the Data Center the server's status. Everything was up and running. Still, they restarted the server for the sake of certainty. The problems persisted.
So I did as suggested here. And it worked smoothly.
Since I use IMAP on my settings I went for a fresh configuration with all my mail accounts. And it worked smoothly.
Thanks William for the tip.
Thanks Shaun for marking the reply as the solution.
Regards,

How to fix slow mail in mountain lion in a easy way

How to fix slow mail in mountain lion in a easy way

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Mail Bouncing everything...

I am recently finding that ALL of my messages that I receive are bouncing back to the sender. I have turned off all rules and can not find any obvious reasons as to what would cause this.
Also, when I send a note to myself from my iPhone (from the note app), it sends it again and again, last time was like 120 times!!!
Any thoughts on where to start?

Andrew Lamont wrote:
What tipped you off that your messages are bouncing? Who is your email service provider? Is Mac Mail bouncing them, or are the senders receiving bounces messages? If the latter, the bounced messages will give you the reason.
-getting e-mail failure notices was the first sign... ie: when my system or .mac bounced then I got a returned e-mail from whatever company my system replied to automatically. So if I got a message from Tiger Direct for instance about some deal going on, right after it was a message saying that I had sent an e-mail to an incorrect address (from Tiger Direct), or I would get a failed sent message from a server.
-this issue is on my .mac address, although it has also happened with gmail. To me that says it is Mail based. Although I know gmail will CC the sender, so maybe that was unrelated... not sure.
-who or what is bouncing them is unclear. It seems that some where there is bounce... though it is actually a reply, as I still get the message.

Mail import Mountain Lion Build 12D65

I can't import mailboxes from system 10.6.8 on another hard drive to Mail in Mountain Lion. When I go to import and choose library in my home folder on 10.6.8, it appears to be empty. Attempting to import from this library folder crashes Mail. If I simply choose the hard drive, it crashes Mail.
My home folder on the other drive is set for read/write for everyone, as is the library folder and the hard drive itself. Bur when I try to open the library folder, I get a message that says I don't have permission.

Build 12D65 is a closed beta, and you need to address this issue on the developer forums.

Why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?, why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?

Why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?, why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?

Ask a fifth time, and maybe the answer will appear.
Are the notes actually in iCloud? If you go to iCloud.com and log in, do you see them there? If so, it's an issue on your computer side. If not, then the notes don't exist on the server.
