Outgoing message with "no-reply@"
Is it possible to use no-reply@ email address in the Accounts > Account Information > Email Address field? I have the full username and password in the Incoming server info and emails are coming in from an online form to this email. I want to reply to these submissions with a no-reply@ email address. Mail doesnt seem to allow the message to go out like this. Is it possible?
Close the app completely and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Mail crashes and cannot delete outgoing message with large attachment
Tried to send an email with too large an attachment. Now it is stuck in Outgoing Mail. I cannot delete it. It just causes the spinning ball and then eventually mail crashes. I need a way to delete the outgoing message. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Try this:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/.
3. Locate Outbox.mbox and move it to the Trash.
4. Open Mail. A new (empty) Outbox.mbox will be created automatically.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library. -
Applescript and the "reply to" field of outgoing message
I have a useless script that works.
tell application "Mail"
set newMessage to make new outgoing message ¬
with properties {content:"My name <[email protected]>"}
set visible of newMessage to true
end tell
I also note from the Mail dictionary that an outgoing message has the following properties: content, sender, subject, content, visible, message signature (signature), id .
I'm puzzled: why aren't there more properties? In particular, I would like to set the Reply To: and Account: fields with something like the following script.
tell application "Mail"
set newMessage to make new outgoing message ¬
with properties {sender:"[email protected]", reply to:"[email protected]"}
set visible of newMessage to true
end tell
I've discovered (with that second script) that the sender property corresponds to the Account: field. But can I get the Reply To: field visible and filled with AppleScript? Or with something else? Automator?
PowerBook G4, Cube Mac OS X (10.4.6) Also running 10.2.8 on a Cube, hopefully 10.3.9 soonApplescript only has access to the objects and properties in the various dictionaries; for mail, as you have discovered, this does not give access to much for an outgoing message. In particular, you cannot access headers such as date or priority or reply-to. If, as in your script, you are making the outgoing message visible before sending it, then you can fill in the reply-to field by hand, but short of trying some gui scripting you can't change it via applescript.
I suggest you use OS X Feedback to complain.

Can Applescript fix this problem with no Reply-To field in mail rules.
Hi I'm trying to sent up an automatic response email in mail rules, the problem is when I filter the email I want to respond to, I don't get the option to send a response to the "Reply-To" field, I can only reply to the "From" field which is no good to me. The mails I receive are booking inquiries generated by an online form so the "From" field is always the same email address not the guest address which is in the "Reply-To" field.
Can any applescript genius out there help me out, it would save me so much time !!
Thanks
JonGive this a shot. Change the text in the quotes in the property line to whatever you want for the body.
property theBody : "This is the autoreply message"
property theQuote : "You wrote:"
using terms from application "Mail"
on perform mail action with messages theMessages for rule theRule
tell application "Mail"
repeat with aMessage in theMessages
set theSubject to "Re: " & the subject of aMessage
set theReplyTo to reply to of aMessage
if theQuote is not "" then
set theBody to theBody & return & return & theQuote & return & return & the content of aMessage
end if
set theReply to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject, content:theBody}
tell theReply
make new to recipient with properties {address:theReplyTo}
end tell
send theReply
end repeat
end tell
end perform mail action with messages
end using terms from
If you set theQuote to "", then it won't quote the original. The quote is plain text, so not a great solution.
There is an option in Applescript to reply to a message, but it does the same as the rule. I tried to edit that message, but it didn't let me. So, I went with the above method.

Everytime I send a message from my yahoo account (which is also my appleID account) a small icon picture (which is a pic of my ex-boyfriend) is attached to the e-mail heading. I'm able to notice I want to remove this from happening. The picture is displayed on my iphone when I open up the mail.
Steps I take:
1. I write an e-mail message from my yahoo account to my other .edu account on a desktop computer.
2. I send the e-mail message from my yahoo account to my other .edu account on a desktop computer.
3. When I open up my .edu account on my iPHONE, there is a new message from my yahoo account.
4. Upon opening the e-mail message on my iPHONE, in the title heading it has the title of the email along with a small (upper right) picture on the iPHONE.
Another thing that I tested was the same thing on my iPAD for text messages:
1. I set up my text messages to my yahoo account (which is also my apple ID account)
2. I send a text message to a person and the same small icon picture is shown on the ipad with each message that is sent
3. The person receiving the text message does not get the small icon picture; however, on the ipad it shows this picture (WHICH NEEDS TO BE REMOVED)
I need to determine how this icon picture is associated with both my yahoo and apple ID account. The funny thing is that I don't have this picture on any of my devices (mac, iphone, ipad). It has been completely removed from all of my technology sources. I'm thinking it has to be something to do with the origniation of my apple ID.
PLEASE HELP ME....this picture is hurting my professionalism when I send outgoing messages.
Thanks.search google for "iphone remove picture from contact"

Outgoing messages not working with POP e-mail account
I am getting a strange message each time I try to send outgoing e-mail messages with my iPhone 3G. It says that my recipients e-mail address in invalid. I have tried multiple e-mail addresses and it always says the same thing when I try to send. My outgoing mail settings look like they are entered correctly and I am recieving e-mail just fine. Any suggestions?
Hi. I was having the same problem with my Gmail/Googlemail account, which i've just managed to fix, by changing the port number for my SMTP server, as per Google's suggestion.
Specifically, I changed my SMTP port number to 465.

I received an email from a friend with two attached images with "Content-Disposition: inline". When I replied to the message to say "hey, cool," those messages were included in the quoted message and attached and sent with my reply. That really shouldn't be the default behavior, and even if someone thinks it should be, there has to be a way to turn it off, right?
Please tell me how to turn it off.
Google searches turn up posts by frustrated users going all the way back to 2008, and there seems to be no answer better than "manually delete the photos each time".OK, so if a message contains images as part of signatures, it wouldn't necessarily be correct to delete them. So we're left with doing it on a case by case basis.
People who don't like graphic content use plain text; this would automatically dispose of inline graphics content (though not true attachments). -
When I reply or forward a message with an attachment the attachment does not forward with the email
Someone sent a message with an attachment. I replied but the attachment doesn't show in my reply. I want to be sure the attachment goes with the reply.
Unfortunately Micrisift have difficulty with understanding standards so they make mail programs that do not correctly encode attachments. Thunderbird can display them, but not forward defective mime encoding. This is a conscious decision of the developers, they are not spreading what they see as defective mail.
Forward such mail as an attachment. It is on the message menu (Alt + M) on on the drop down beside the forward button. -

Bug: recipient display on messages with "reply to" tag
When replying to a message that was sent to me with a "reply to" address set, BBOS behavior is misleading to the point where I consider this a bug. Specifically, it will honor the reply-to address without displaying any indication that it is doing so in the recipient information.
Explanation by example:
Someone sends me a message, and sets a reply-to address different from their own address.
I receive the message, and click reply on my Passport.
The "To:" field in my email appears to contain the person who sent me the original message.
I compose my message and send it.
Instead of being sent to the displayed recipient, it is sent instead to the address specified in the original message's Reply-to field.
This is a potentially abusable security risk. That is, I could easily be tricked into sending a candid reply much more broadly than intended, since the recipient my message will actually be sent to is occluded by the display name of the person I think I'm replying to. Other clients handle this much better, by explicitly changing the recipient's display name so that it matches the address, and thus preventing confusion. That is how BBOS should handle this situation.Hello,
first of all please be aware that this is not a support website officially manned by BB employees. We are "just" a forum of BB users and developers.
Then, I'm not sure how often the situation you're describing could occur: it would mislead the user if someone uses a different "reply to" address than... which one? Isn't it logical that the device will use the "reply to" field when you hit the button "reply"?
How exceptionally this would occur, you only have to "touch" the recipient field of your reply and the device will show the address actually used to send the reply message.
Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-) -
How to view "From" header field in OUTgoing messages in Mail? Frustrating.
In Mail v.4.3 (in OSX 10.6.4), I need to view the "From" field in my outgoing messages as I am composing them. However, there seems to be no setting in Mail which allow this.
I find this very frustrating because in Eudora (which I used to use), the "From" field in outgoing messages is visible by default. But in Mail, not only is it not visible by default, there seems to be no way to make it visible.
In the "Customize..." button to the left of the Subject field in outgoing messages, one has the option to add as default outgoing message fields "cc," "bcc," "Reply-To," and "Subject," but none of those are what I want. It allows one to also view the address of the mail server, but that also is not what I'm looking for. What I want is to see my outgoing +email address+. And nowhere is there an option in the Preferences to turn this on. (At least as far as I could tell.)
In fact, the only way to see the identity in the outgoing "From" field is to go to Preferences, then click on Accounts, and look there; or send oneself a test email. Both of which are a hassle and should be unnecessary.
In case you're curious as to why I want to see my outgoing "From" header field:
I have several different "personas" online, each of which uses a different email address: My work address (with a work-related domain); my family/personal address (with a different email address than my work address); an online avatar I use in various gaming sites (also with its own address, since I don't want to use my personal name/address in the gaming community); and so on. However, I have all incoming emails to all accounts auto-forwarded to the same central email account. Most of the time I'm just replying to business emails, so my outgoing "Full Name" and "Email Address" (in Preferences>Accounts) are generally set to my business name and address; but on occasion when I want to reply to a non-business email and not have the recipient see my business email address, I go in to Preferences>Accounts and change "Full Name" and "Email Address" (i.e. what is displayed to the user) to something different. And when I'm done with that, I change it back to my business address.
However, sometimes I forget if I've changed it back or not, or forget what I've changed it to. In Eudora, All one needed to one was create a new outgoing email and it would display the "From" field so I could instantly see my outgoing identity. But in Mail, there is no "From" field in outgoing emails, so I'm constantly nervous and wondering which outgoing identity I may have changed to and accidentally forgotten to change back from.
(Yes, yes, I know that if a recipient wanted to be snoopy, they could look at the "full headers" of any incoming email and see the name of my email server, which may different from my displayed email address; but we're not talking about spy-stuff here, I'm just trying to not confuse people and keep business separate from personal.)
So: is there any way for me to see the outgoing "From" field in the emails I send? Or am I condemned to constantly (and mostly unnecessarily) checking "Preferences>Accounts" to see what I have enetered there?Thanks for replying.
What is the "compose window" to which you are both referring? I could find no reference to such a thing in the Mail menus or Help.
Do you mean the "Composing" pane in the Preferences? I don't see what either one of you is referring to there, but I did notice there something that could function as an awkward workaround: If I click on the "Automatically CC myself" box in Preferences>Composing, then when I start a new email, my email address is displayed in the "CC" field -- and luckily, Mail allows me to then delete my email address out of the CC field, so I don't have to spam myself with duplicate copies of all my emails. This way, I can at least briefly see what email address I'm using, before I delete it from the CC field. Pretty awkward and unnecessarily laborious, however -- still not a perfect solution.
Or, by "composing window," are you referring to an outgoing email? As I said in my original comment, I do see what Ernie called "a small box with lines and an arrow at the bottom left of the header box." This is what I had to say about it:
+"In the "Customize..." button to the left of the Subject field in outgoing messages, one has the option to add as default outgoing message fields "cc," "bcc," "Reply-To," and "Subject," but none of those are what I want. It allows one to also view the address of the mail server, but that also is not what I'm looking for. What I want is to see my outgoing email address. And nowhere is there an option in the Preferences to turn this on. (At least as far as I could tell.)"+
In other words, when Ernie says, "click the box beside From," I can't do that -- because there is no such option. That's the whole problem in the first place. If there was a "From" field beside which I could click a box to make it appear, I would have done so! But there is no "From" field in the "Customize" section of the "small box with lines and an arrow at the bottom left of the header box."
I find it completely mystifying that both of you seem to be able to see a "From" field available to be added to the header of outgoing emails, yet no such option is available to me in Mail. What possibly could be causing this? 10.6.4 is freshly installed on my machine, and Mail seems brand new and uncorrupted. And I'm using Mail 4.3, the latest version.
Are you saying that everyone else can see an option to have a "From" field in their outgoing messages, but I uniquely don't? Very very very strange. -
I use iMacs for work. I often send email messages with attachments using Mail. Often, when sending email messages to Windows users (they are out there still), they will reply that they cannot open "the second attachment." The message seems to "pick up" a second apparent attachment, which is generally just a few K in size, and is not part of the original message or attachment. Unfortunately, though, it tricks the recipient into thinking that there are two attachments and the second one is meaningful So then they respond and I have to assure them that the second attachment is irrelevant and can be ignored.
Any thoughts on how to fix this, so outgoing email messages will only present the intended attachment?That's a great question. I do use a signature, but inasmuch as it is simply text pre-inserted in the email message, I would be surprised if the signature somehow became stripped out and converted to an attachment. Nonetheless, I will try deleting the signature to see if that makes any difference.

Help! all outgoing messages are copied to me-very irritating
Help! all outgoing messages are copied to me-very irritating
I've now done Literally every possible thing listed in the help
or that I was told to do in this thread, and nothing has worked.
Not sure what you mean. Have you tried uninstalling all the plug-ins as well? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
ls -1 /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
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. -
Can I set a rule to move outgoing messages?
Hi all
Mail rules (Tiger) seem to only apply to incoming mail automatically. I want the mail in the Sent folder for a POP account to automatically move to a folder that belongs to an IMAP account (.mac), so I have access to those messages on all my computers. I know I can manually move the messages, and that you can manually apply a rule to selected messages, but I want it to happen whenever a message is sent from that account. Have I overlooked something obvious?
I suppose I could send everything from my .mac account and use the Reply-To field, but I'd have to choose that on a message-by-message basis. Too much mousing.
Thanks for any ideas.Hi,
We are now on version 3.0 of the Mail application... I am using Leopard and have just checked out Mail.
I too want to be able to set a rule to move outgoing messages to the Mailbox of my preference.
We can do it in Entourage. We can do it in Eudora. Why, oh why, can't we do it in Mail? This is the reason I cannot switch to Mail. Why would anybody want to keep thousands of unorganized messages in the Sent Mailbox?
Or am I missing some hidden function of Mail that does something similar to this?
Anyone with experience using Mail have a suggestion? -
Ok now I know there has been a (well documented) flaw with Godaddy's smtp outgoing servers and Apple's mail. However, most peoples issues are resolved by resending or simply quitting the application. Mine is a little different. I have 2 Godaddy emails for my band. One as a my own personal one and then one for the whole band. They are both linked to my Mail and have the exact same settings. But my personal one, will not send a message, no matter if I quit or if I try to resend. But the band one, doesn't skip a beat. I would switch over to gmail, as I already have a gmail for personal non band related stuff, but having the @antinomyband.com makes my band seem much more professional and adds extra polish. I dislike having to respond through Godaddy as it is tedious when I get all my mail to my Mail application. If anyone has any hints (and changing the port didn't work either) it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
I'm having issues too.
I've also noticed that this is a problem with GoDaddy's servers in combination with Mac Mail. This seems to happen more frequently whenever I try to reply to a message (especially if the message had attachments). Often, the error will either say "Authentication failed" or "Could not connect to server" or "Connection timed out" or lately "Server requires authentication, please check your settings". I've been all over this with GoDaddy changing the port from 80 to 25 to 3535 and it still happens with alarming regularity. One fix (maybe it's not a fix) is to take the message I'm replying with and insert a few spaces at the head and then delete them. Then send. It usually goes then. This may be voodoo, but it seems to work. If I don't, then I can't reply.
In talking with GoDaddy support, they suggest talking with my ISP (Qwest) to see if they're blocking access to any other SMTP servers. This doesn't make sense because the problem happens at work, at home, on the road etc. where there are any number of ISPs in place.
I've never had this problem with any other client other than Mac Mail. This problem has moved from Tiger to Leopard, so I don't think it's an install issue. I've rebuilt my accounts with fresh information, so I'm now at a loss...
Anyone else with this problem?
