    How can I import mail from Outlook for Mac into Lion Mail?

    It is not Outlook that needs to be sync'd; it is the Exchange Server.  Find out from the System Administrator of the Exchange Server the EXTERNAL name and use that to setup a new mail account in Lion Mail.  I highlight the "external" because the URL used for Window's Outlook Clients will not work.  Try the webmail URL first.

  • Smtp auth. fails for Mac mail but ok for netscpae mail ???

    Hello all,
    I am having some persistent problems with SMTP authentication to send mail from my Mac via my ISP onto the internet.
    What DOES work:
    1. sending and receiving mail from my current ISP account using Netscape mail.
    2. receiving mail from my ISP account using Mac mail
    What DOES NOT work:
    3. sending mail via my ISP using Mac Mail. The error message is that the SMTP authentication failed.
    Yes, I checked the mail port (25) and the smtp address (in plain text ascii)
    Has anyone had a similar problem, where Mac mail failes, but another mail tool succeeds? Has anyone succeeded at getting it to work for Mac mail?
    Thanks,
    Ary

    If your ISP requires POP before SMTP authentication which requires checking the account's incoming mail server for new mail before being able to send with the account's SMTP server (checking the account for new mail should be required once per session only), then authentication for the SMTP server should be set to None.
    Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the account information tab for the account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Setting button below.
    If Password is selected for SMTP authentication, change it to None and test if this resolves the problem.
    If None is selected and your ISP requires password authentication for their SMTP server, select Password and enter the account's user name and password required for the authentication.

  • Return receipt plug in for Mac Mail software?

    Return receipt for Mac OSX 10.4.6 build in email software “Mail” 2.0.7 (746.2/749.3) 2005 Apple Inc.
    Is there a return receipt plug in for Mac Mail software? I want to know if my sent mail was received and know if the mail was opened.

    Kboo,
    in general not a good idea. This may cause loops with Out-of-Office responders and also not a very trustworthy confirmation.
    Options are to use certified email servers as an intermediate (google to find many) or to request explicitly a written reply from the recipient.

  • Where can I find free Christmas stationery for Mac Mail version 6.2?

    Where can I find free Christmas stationery for Mac Mail version 6.2 on my MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.2??? Everything I've tried to download is from 2008-2009 and isn't compatible.
    ~Patty

    Dear sig,
    Thank you for responding. When I Googled, I received a list of suggested web sites, but they were all posted in 2008-2009 and, when I downloaded the application, they were not compatible with OS 10.8.2 and/or Mail 6.2. I did find an app in the App Store called "Stationery for Mail" for $6.99 (less expensive than equinux or ipresentee) that had one Christmas email template and several others for other occasions/seasons. I purchased that one so that I'd have at least one email template to use for now, but I'd love to find more templates for future use that are FREE.
    I can't believe Apple hasn't created more email stationery templates for download (freeware) on its web site. I can find screensavers and wallpapers, but nothing for Mail.
    If you or anyone else finds or knows of a website with FREE email stationery templates for Mail 6.2, please let me know.
    Thank you!
    ~Patty

  • I have installed OS Maverick 10.9 and now find titles are included for mac mail addressees. That is, I get Dr John Brown instead of John Brown. That did not happen before. How do I suppress the title?

    I have installed OS Mavericks 10.9 and now find that Mac Mail includes titles for addressees. Thus, it shows 'Dr John Brown' instead of 'John Brown'. I have had the same problem with suffixes with earlier versions and solved that by deleting all suffixes from my address book. I don't want to have to do that for titles. How can I keep the titles in my address book but have them not show for Mac Mail addressess?

    I have the opposite problem, Barry ... now only the eMail address shows ... no name at all, even though I type it in!

    I am wondering if anyone is seeing my question? This is my first time and I am not sure if I am communicating correctly. If you are seeing the question above regading deleted messages reappearing please reply so I will at least know I am getting the message out.
    Thank you.

  • Outgoing SMTP for Mac Mail Authentication (none or password)?

    i have had to set up a test account due to some corruption issues and i have a new temporary password for iCloud.
    and i am in the outgoing SMTP > ADVANCED section of mail.
    does anyone know if i set up a SMTP server for Mac Mail as having an authentication set to "none" or set to "password" and whether this password should be my new temp pass?

    If your ISP requires POP before SMTP authentication which requires checking the account's incoming mail server for new mail before being able to send with the account's SMTP server (checking the account for new mail should be required once per session only), then authentication for the SMTP server should be set to None.

    If None is selected and your ISP requires password authentication for their SMTP server, select Password and enter the account's user name and password required for the authentication.

  • Emoticons for mac mail

    Does anybody know where I can get emoticons (smiley faces) for mac mail?
    Too bad mac mail doesn't have that feature, one that stupid pc email software has build in.

    They are easy enough to google for.
    In Mail you have to add them as attachments.

  • Mac Mail and AOL IMAP

    Recently it seems that my Mac mail program cannot connect to the AOL Imap server.  When I do the connectivity test in mail, the little ball is red.  Has anyone else noticed this?
    Before you tell me to go ask AOL, I have already scoured the AOL help sites, and as of yet have not found an official AOL forum, which is why I am posting this here, as it is also a Mac related issue.

    Please verify that you are adhering to these settings.
    AOL Imap (incoming)
    AOL Mail IMAP server address: imap.aol.com
    AOL Mail IMAP user name: Your AOL Mail screen name (the part before "@aol.com" in your AOL Mail address; if your AOL Mail address is [email protected], for instance, the screen name is "me")
    AOL Mail IMAP password: Your AOL Mail password
    AOL Mail IMAP port: 993
    AOL Mail IMAP TLS/SSL required: yes
    AOL Smtp (outgoing)
    AOL Mail SMTP server address: smtp.aol.com
    AOL Mail SMTP user name: Your AOL Mail screen name (what comes before "@aol.com" in your AOL Mail address; if your address is [email protected], for example, the corresponding screen name is "me")
    AOL Mail SMTP password: Your AOL Mail password
    AOL Mail SMTP port: 587

  • Mac Mail and AOL

    I have for years used MacMail to access my various e-mail accounts, currently four -- ATT, MSN. QWest and AOL -- first through my ATT ISP, then MSN's ISP and now a Qwest DSL line. Starting a couple of months ago, Connection Doctor keeps telling me I can no longer access AOL's SMTP server, i.e. I can receive AOL mail but can no longer send AOL mail using MacMail. All my other accounts work fine both sending and receiving and I can send AOL mail without any problem by logging on to AOL's internet web site. My ISP keeps telling me the problem is with AOL. AOL's "mail team" (in the Philippines, Pakistan or wherever???) sent me multiple suggestions, some simplistic such as check your user name and password, others to try various port numbers, none of which have worked. I have trashed and reinstalled Mac Mail, trashed and reconfigured all my e-mail accounts, tried all available ports, with or without SSL, and Mac Mail simply cannot connect to AOL's SMTP Server. My question is: has anyone else experienced this problem and is there any solution?

    Hello:
    I had a similar problem yesterday (which I attributed, apparently correctly, to my Mail provider - AOL).  In my case, I could not receive Mail, but could send.  I repetitively entered the correct password and could receive - even though the system indicated my inbound was off line. 
    I had to repetitively enter my password - both in the inbound and outbound areas.
    The connection doctor gave varying results - sometimes a red dot, sometimes all OK.
    The problem has disappeared, but I expect it to return sometime in the future.
    Barry
