Question about using email when using computer at internet cafe

I am confused about using email when using my computer at an internet cafe.
Of course - I use the internet cafe's wifi connection/network.
How does this effect my email?
what do I have to do to use my email when logged on at an internet cafe?

You don't give enough information to do more than discuss the issue in general terms.
You should be able to read your email wherever you can get an internet connection.
To send email, it depends on the email provider you are using. Gmail and other web based mail should not have any issues. However, if you are attempting to use an account that uses your ISP's mail servers, you will probably not be able to send mail. You may want to check with your ISP in that case, to see if they offer webmail.
Hope this may have answered your question.

Question about hacked email

I received a "delivery failure" notice for a message that I never sent. This delivery failure email included the sent message, so I was able to see that it had been sent to about 10 email addresses that I had most recently sent legitimate email to.  I confirmed with a few of those people that they did receive that message, although it did not appear in my Sent folder. I would never have know about it had I not received the delivery failure notice. The sent message was clearly SPAM aimed at getting recipients to click on a link.
I DO NOT keep a "contacts" list or an addressbook., so it seems to me that someone hacked into my account and was able to examine my "sent" emails to get a list of recipients.
I have changed my email password but am not sure what additional measures I need to take to prevent this from happening again and to ensure that my email is adequately protected.   Again, my case seems different because it does not involve "stealing" a list of contact or an addressbook.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Still possible you have a virus on your machine. Is your Antivirus up to date, and have you done a scan?
Did you look at the headers of the spam to see if it looked like it was coming from inside verizon (or worse from your machine).
Its possible your mail was harvested at one of your recipients. Considering using BCC (blind CC) if you send to lots of people and don't need everyone to know who you sent the message to.

Question about same emails with others

Good afternoon, the other day I walked into
yahoo.com, because I wondered if
I had done earlier account there.
So, when I tried to log in, I chose
that I can not remember my identity
and asked me to write the security email
I would have put in during my
recording time. Me, I put
my mainly EMAIL, which is: [email protected]
After some time I realized that
some unknown had used my email
as security email to his account
on yahoo. Later I checked the
recent activity in my email in hotmail
and indicate places where I have not been
in any of the times I entered my
account. Finally, there are some messages
about verifying my identity to an account
of Apple, which does not come from
me. My question is whether it is possible
to have the same email with
these girls, who have the same name and
the same first letter on their surname
as me?? Thank you in advance!

I wanna create a connection pool for SQLServer. At beginning, I
mis-add the JDBC Driver class path to weblogic.class.path. As a result
the pool creating failed. After I add the JDBC Driver class path to
weblogic.class.path and CLASSPATH (by wlconfig), the pool created

For testing purpose, I changed weblogic.class.path back, then
restarted NT, started Weblogic Server, to my surprise, the pool was

Question about push email...

Hi all,
i have a question regarding this push mail tech.
how the client will be able to receive a message from the server, without the need for client to check it by it self?
Is it true the only way to do that is to by keeping a connection between the server and the client opened? If it is, isn't that would be too much thread running on the server if there are a lot of client connected...
Or there is another way else???
TiA

My understanding is that POP3 email accounts are checked by BIS every 15 minutes and any new emails are pushed to your device. This means a message can take anywhere from 0 - 15 minutes to get to you (average 8 minutes).
What you can do is create a new blackberry email, which is not a POP3 account and is capable of true push email. Any emails set to this address will be pushed instantly. Then you can set your other email accounts to forward to this address. You should then recevie the emails within a few seconds.
The problem is this makes replying from the correct address a bit of a hassle so I've just learnt to accept the 8 minute delay.
I'm still reletively new to Blackberry so please correct me if Im wrong.

Question about mac email attachments

Hi,
Troubleshooting for my boss who is having trouble opening email attachments in her mac email from just one friends email account.
The attachments are xls and pdf files from a pc user who is using yahoo mail. This happened suddenly in the last week. The mac user can open other peoples attachments of the same file extensions. The mac user can also open the same blocked attachments if the files are forwarded from a different user to them. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a configuration I can change in the yahoo mail of the pc user that could have triggered the mac user to now seemingly be blocking attachments from the pc user? Several other mac and pc users can open the same email attachments from the pc user who is being blockied from my bosses mac email account. Hope this made some sense and thanks in advance for your help!

Its a Mac Pro running 10.9.4.
If it matters the pc user is running windows 7 home addition.
The problem began after the pc user accidently sent the mac user a tiff file. The mac user was unable to open that tiff file and then suddenly all other files sent by the pc user regardless of file type could not be opened by the mac user. They work together so it's imperative that they be able to send xls and pdf files back and forth. Thanks for your help.

Question about online email virus's

Hey folks,
I am quite aware than Virus's programmed for Mac OS X are relatively unheard of and as a result, the need for antivirus software seems unnecessary. However, does this still count for when it comes to using email accounts online such as Hotmail?
Recently, I've noticed something fishy with my hotmail account. In my Inbox, I keep receiving 'Delivery Status Notification (Failure)' emails from [email protected]
When I go into my sent folder I will then see where it has attempted to send people junk mail from my email address.
Whats going on here?! How do I put an end to this? Is this some sort of online virus or account virus or what?
Thanks for the help guys,
Steve.

That's not quite accurate... they are non-existent. There are a handful of trojan horses, but those are not viruses. A virus spreads itself. A trojan horse is simply a malicious app that fools you into running it. The Mac trojan horses that currently exist are pretty easy to avoid... just don't download pirated software or install "plug-ins" recommended by dodgy web sites.

If the viruses don't exist, it doesn't matter who provides your e-mail...

Perhaps your account has been hijacked and is being used to send spam. You should probably try changing your Hotmail password and any other security settings.

Question About Syncing Email Deletions From Webmail

Is there a way to set up my mail account such that when I delete a message I viewed in Webmail, it will delete that message also from my email client at the same time? I am often away with only Webmail access but when I go through and delete a bunch of messages they are still waiting for me at home to delete again. Thanks,Robyn

No. Its the way POP works.

Quick question about exporting email address and their alias from Exchange 2007 mailbox

Hi Everyone,
We have Exchange 2007 and 2013 servers. All users are still 2007 servers. I have a list of users around 179 out of 3000 in a CSV file. I would like to export those 179 users primary smtp and their aliases. Is it possible to achieve through any script?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Siva

Hello Siva,
You don't need a script for this. Information can be obtained with simple command.
$AllUsers = Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Select DisplayName,Alias,PrimarySMTPAddress,SamACcountName,Database,LegacyExchangeDN
$AllUsers | Export-Csv Outputfile.csv -NoTypeInformation
Try this and let me know if it helps!
if you want PrimarySMTPAddress and alias of only those users whose information on the excel sheet, then what do you have as the column name in the excel sheet which you are using to query on the server.
Considering that you are using Alias to query the server to get the details you can try below:
$Global:Output = @()
$CsvData = Import-Csv Inputfile.csv
foreach($line in $CsvData)
{$CurrentObject = $Line.AliasWrite-Host “Processing Obect “$CurrentObject “From Csv File”
–ForeGroundColor YELLOW$EmailIDJoin = ""$EmailAddresses = @()$UserInfo = "" | Select DisplayName,PrimarySMTPAddress,Alias,SamAccountName,Database,LegacyExchangeDN,EmailAddresses
$UserInfo.DisplayName = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).DisplayName
$UserInfo.PrimarySMTPAddress = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).PrimarySMTPAddress
$UserInfo.Alias = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).Alias
$UserInfo.SamAccountName = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).SamAccountName
$UserInfo.Database = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).Database
$UserInfo.LegacyExchangeDN = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).LegacyExchangeDN
$EmailAddresses = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject)|%{$_.EmailAddresses}
for($i=0;$i -lt $EmailAddresses.Count;$i++)
$EmailIDJoin += $EmailAddresses[$i].ProxyAddressString
if($i -lt $EmailAddresses.Count - 1)
$EmailIDJoin += ','
$UserInfo.EmailAddresses = $EmailIdJoin
$Global:Output += $UserInfo
#Export output to CSV File
$Global:Output | Export-Csv GlobalOutput.csv -NoTypeInformation

Q about unsent email alerts

Hi!
I have a question about unsent emails
After changing of IP address on SCSM server Exchange server wont to accept email from new IP address ( its normal)
After i configured Exch to accept email from new SCSM IP all new emails delivered ok
But where is on SCSM server old emails ( undelivered) took place ? Is its in some queue or where ?

it's not surprising that the exchange side doesn't show any logs. the default configuration for all receive connectors is no logging.
you could say that it is taking a template and populating it and generating an in-memory email, but there's no guarantee on that in-memory object, and the OMSDK assumes that your exchange server is going to be properly configured.
in short, the management assumes no responsibility for lost user emails due to user mis-configuration.

Had to change my Apple ID because the original email address is no longer valid. How do I change the iCloud user name on iMac? I found instructions about signing out of iCloud and signing back end. It asks questions about contact, etc.

Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid. Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those? That just sort of freaks me out.

For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.

GB

Question about email setting: how do i change the setting so i need to login to check my email. Currently it automatically come to the inbox without the need to log in.

You don't. Email comes in either by push or when you invoke the email app. Ther is no password except when you first set up the account. If your iPad is not being used as your personal device and you need to shield emails from other users, then don't use the email app. Instead, use web mail if available from your provider.

I have forgotten the answers to my security questions. The emails apple is sending to reset this is not reaching me. I want to change my password. how do I go about it?

I have a question about my Apple ID which is my email

The email on which my Apple ID is associated with has been hacked
therefore i have made a new email address which i have changed all my online

loose the apps and movies and song etc that i have purchased or if they will send an
email confirmation to the hacked email account.
can someone please help me as to what i should do and how i should do it?
Thank you

Hi Aysha84,
As long as this email that is your Apple ID does not end in mac.com, me.com or icloud.com you can change it as well as associate it with a different email address. That way you will retain control of all content from the Apple ID. See this article for how to change the Apple ID -
Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
Be sure to follow through with the steps in this article after you have changed the Apple ID -
