Outgoing mail from Mail.app received as junk/spam mail.

I am having a problem, and I can't seem to find an answer. I hope someone can help me. I have owned my machine for a little less than 2 years, and this problem has always been present, but now it is serious.
When someone receives my emails sent from the Mail app in OSX, it is not sent as my My Name <[email protected]> it is viewed by me in my sent folder, and received by others as Administrator, with no address attached. Often this leads to my emails being sent directly to their junk/spam folders. I am a designer, and have been trying to send clients pdfs, as well as communications to others of importance...and they are not receiving these emails. I changed my address card in OSX from administrator to my real name, and have searched for eons for a solution, all to no avail. I am in desperate needs for a solution, please someone help!?!?!?

never mind I fixed it......
it was a short name issue....

  • IMessages from Message App received from Apple ID/Email address?

    I downloaded Messages and my conversation with the same person shows up in the same thread whether I send it from my iPhone or through the Mac messages App. But for the RECEIVER of the message, it shows up as 2 different threads: one from my phone number and another from my email address. How do I get it to only show up as from my phone number for the receiver?

    Hi,
    At present you can't.

    Hi
    I have two questions

    EmailComposeTask and
    EmailManager are used to send email from your Windows Phone.
    If you want to receive email from your app then you need to create a WCF Service or Rest-based Service where you will check and download email from your email server. Following link should help you

  • 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.

  • My MacBook pro has stopped connecting to the outgoing mail server smpt (Tiscali) server, still receives mail fine, and connects to the web. Any suggestions welcome.

    My MacbookPro has always worked fine, receiving and sending emails through my server,Tiscali.  I took it to France for a few days, and was able to receive emails and use the web (through the wireless router and server in our accomodation), although as usual when away from home, I couldn't send emails. I tried to set up a new outgoing email route using O2 (as suggested by a web article), but it didn't work, so I deleted it, and used Tiscali webmail to send emails.
    When I returned home, I selected my usual outgoing server (Tiscali), but found to my great surprise, that I could no longer send emails - Mail timed out, 'unable to connect'. I noticed when clicking on: Mail - Preferences, that in the outgoing mail smpt box, Tiscali appeared, as usual, but now was followed by (Offline)
    Receiving emails and web connections have remained fine.
    I've checked with Tiscali, and they can't find any problem with their server or my settings.  Grateful for any suggestions about possible causes for this problem, and how to fix it.

    I have just tried attaching the ethernet cable to the MacBook to see what happens. The system is fine, but when starting Mail, it never opens and locks up. You eventually just have to force quit out of the program.

  • Can I set my iCloud email as the outgoing mail server for my google apps email account in Mac Mail?

    I have a google apps email account from an old client, all my work emails have been going to it for years. As I'm no longer affiliated with this client I'd like to make a transition to using my iCloud account for work. I asked people to use my iCloud address but as they've been using my google apps address for years it's what automatically comes up when they type my name.
    I figure the easiest way to make a transition is if I reply to all the emails that arrive at my old address from my iCloud address and gradually they will start using my new address without realising it. But I can't find a simple way to do this.
    In Mac Mail preferences > accounts > Google IMAP (my old account name) > Account information > Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) I'd like to set my iCloud SMTP server. But although my iCloud account uses its own outgoing mail server for its own account , it is not in the server list when I select my google account. I've tried to add it to the server list as smtp.mail.me.com but it caused my whole iCloud account to give me error messages until I force quit Mail...
    Any ideas?

    In iCloud/Mail, have you tried going to Preferences (select with gear at lower left)/Composing and setting a Send from address there?

  • Outlook 2007 - Outgoing mail server from a 3rd party

    I tried to set up the outgoing mail server for my Outlook 2007 with a 3rd party mail server. e.g. mail.xxxx.com, and I could not send the e-mail at all. If I set up the  outgoing mail server as outgoing.verizon.net, I can send the email to everyone else but not to this 3rd party mail server mail.xxxx.com. I received the undeliverable message from Verizon that the mail was rejected due to not being able to log on to this 3r party mail server. I am working for this company from home and it requires me to set up this for my outgoing mail server. Does anyone know how to fix this, including specifying what needs to be done at the 3rd party mail server to change to accept emails sent from outgoing.verizon.net? Thank you in advance. Andy

    Port 25 is the standard for SMTP, although some now use a submission port, 587. I know port 25 off network is blocked for residential users, I don't know if 587 is blocked off network because I have never tried it. I suspect it is. Verizon is by no means the only ISP to do this.
    Business accounts do not have blocked ports as far as I know, so if you have a business account, you are free to communicate using port 25 anywhere.
    Verizon has recently gone to non-standard port assignments for SMTP and POP servers. see

    I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.  
    I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
    SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
    Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
    Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:

    Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
    Tools console.
    Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
    I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario.  With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
    strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc.  Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

  • Server App: Outgoing Mail Relay not working

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up Outgoing Mail Relay on my Mountain Lion Server, but I always get bounced emails:
    Oct  1 04:33:34 my.server.private postfix/smtp[9582]: C855DCE700D: to=<[email protected]>, relay=mx2.sub5.homie.mail.dreamhost.com[208.113.200.128]:25, delay=0.91, delays=0/0.02/0.65/0.24, dsn=5.7.1, status=bounced (host mx2.sub5.homie.mail.dreamhost.com[208.113.200.128] said: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [myIP] blocked using zen.dnsbl; http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=myIP (in reply to RCPT TO command))
    If I use in the SMTP servers list of Mail app, the exact same account credentials, the email is been delivered only when using SSL. So, I tried adding :465 and :587 to the ougoing relay server in the Server app (Relay outgoing mail throught ISP), but I get the following error and the message stays queued:
    Oct  1 04:13:41 my.server.private postfix/smtp[8920]: connect to mx2.sub5.homie.mail.dreamhost.com[208.113.200.128]:587: Connection refused

    It seems I'm missing something. I want to use smtp account to send all the email coming from my Mac OS X Server, but it looks like I'm doing something wrong or the Server App doesnt work the same way Mail App does when connecting to a SMTP server.
    Any comments?

    Let me add....
    Mail app is connecting and sending the emails correctly with the same credentials but using SSL through port 25:

    235 2.7.0 Authentication successful
    I would like to force Server App to do a SSL connection to port 25 of the specified relay server, but not sure how to do this. If I don't manage to do SSL on port 25, then, my relay server will bounce the emails...
    grrrr!

  • Mail messages are marked "junk" in the outgoing mail box

    For some time all my outgoing email messages have been marked as "junk" in the sent mail box. Today found that if I do not mark my personal information in my address book as "Me" my sent messages are no longer marked "junk". Does anyone know how I can fix the problem so my personal information can be marked "Me"?
    iMac intel   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    iMac intel   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The following procedure thoroughly gets rid of all the files used by the junk filter, so that Mail creates them anew, and should fix the problem in the cases where the simple procedure provided in my first post doesn’t:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
    3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. This file stores information about what does and doesn’t constitute junk, and allows the junk filter to learn. Deleting this file is what Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset does. The file was called LSMMap in early versions of Mail; delete that as well if you see it.
    4. Locate any MessageRules.plist (Mail 2.x) and/or MessageSorting.plist (Mail 1.x) files and move them to the Desktop. This is where Mail stores all the rules, including the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
    5. Locate DefaultCounts and move it to the Trash. This file keeps statistics about the number of messages that have been marked as junk, either automatically by the junk filter or manually by the user.
    6. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox or Junk.imapmbox folder within it, and move it to the Trash if present.
    7. Go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox mailboxes there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash.
    Note: Steps 5, 6 and 7 may be unnecessary. Also, messages in Junk mailboxes with an .mbox suffix are stored locally and will be lost forever as a result of doing steps 6 and 7. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there that you want to preserve, either try skipping those steps, or move the messages to another mailbox in Mail first, or move Junk.mbox to the Desktop (to be imported back later) instead of to the Trash. Junk mailboxes with an .imapmbox suffix aren’t a concern because they are stored on the server and Mail would rebuild them automatically.
    8. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
    9. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
    10. Go online again if you went offline in step 8.
    If the above solves the problem and you don’t have any rules you’d like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just trash the rules files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • Apple Mail switching my outgoing mail from receipt e-mail to another e-mail within my accounts

    Hi ~
    My Apple Mail account keeps switching outgoing mail accounts on me, nilly-willy. If a mail comes in under a particular address, i.e. [email protected] it will send a return e-mail from another address within my accounts, i.e. [email protected], EVEN if a) the account shown in the FROM line is the original [email protected]; and 2) my signature for that particular account shows in the e-mail.  It seems to happen only with the 5 G-mail accounts synched into the mail program, and not with a business address with a different server.
    Any suggestions to fix this particularly pesky problem?

    I have something similar.  I have 4 email accounts one being Gmail.  No matter what account receives the email the replay is automatically directed to the Gmail account.  There have been some discussions out there about problems with Gmail accounts.  This may be connected to problems.
