Saving Mail (Add a Folder?)

I would like to be able to save important emails on my iPhone without having to worry about accidentally deleting them when cleaning out my InBox. Am using POP mail. Posted this earlier and received response the option did not exist. Was wondering if a 3rd party option may exist?

Thanks for the response. I guess you are implying new folders can be created and used to store mail, but it needs to be done on the Mac and somehow synched to the iPhone? I use Entourage and have dozens of mail folders. Not sure how that client/MUA influences the iPhone's mail client, but am interested in learning. The ISP for my email accounts is Cox, but I wish to save messages on my phone for off line use and do not use webmail.
Is there a 3rd party App for the iPhone that allows such?

Email attachment to be saved to a mail or mac folder?

Why can't we have a simple rule that allows email attachment to be saved to a mail or mac folder? This was a simple rule in outlook and the real true feature I miss about Outlook. I know people will say apple scripts but I am not a coder and the option is not available in automator. How hard can this be?

I know this isn't automatic, but pretty fast and simple. On the top right of an email window, use the Save feature for attachments.

Can't add a mail enabled public folder to allowed senders on a mail universal security group in Exchange 2010

Hello,
I'm trying to allow a mail enabled public folder permissions to send to a mail universal security group. In the past if I wanted to add a PF as an allowed sender I would do it via the AuthOrig setting on that group using adsiedit. I just noticed today
that if I add the PFs DN to that attribute of the group, nothing happens. No matter how long I wait the PF never shows up under the allowed senders list on the group. If you try and send as the PF you get a bounce about not being allowed to send to that
group. If I go back into AD and check, the PF is still listed under the AuthOrig attribute. I tried this on a few different groups and with a few different PF and I'm stumped. I think the last time I had to update this setting on a group
was before I installed roll-up 5 for SP3.
If I do the same test with a user, it works as it should and they show up in the allowed senders list.
If I take a group that isn't restricted to specific senders and add a PF DN to the AuthOrig attribute of the group, the button in the message delivery restrictions for that group in the EMC will change from all senders to only senders in the following list,
but the PF wont be listed in the box of allowed senders. If I remove it from the AuthOrig attribute the group will change back to allow all senders. It's really weird, so any help or light you can shed on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I check many threads and articles, but there is no related information to verify the issue.
If your purpose is that adding a mail-enabled public folder to allowed senders on a distribution group, there is a workaround method. You can create a new distribution group, and then add the public folder to the new distribution group, and add
the new distribution group to the Only senders in the following list field of the target distribution group.
Here is an article for your reference.

Saved Mail Folder

This is the third time that the Saved mail folder has gone. This is in my internet providers account.
The first and second time, it reapeared a few weeks later, but not all the mail was there. This thrid time it happened yesterday after about 21 updates from Microsoft.
How to I get it back on my mail page?

Hi,
You need to talk with your ISP. They may ONLY keep users emails for a number of days (say few weeks). Why not use Outlook (old Hotmail, old Windows Live mail - not Outlook in Office suite), Yahoo, Gmail .... I've never used ISP mail box because I may change ISP from time to time.
Good luck.

Un-installing apple mail add on

Hi
i have some apple mail add-ons that was disabled after my last update to system so from where i can find and remove them as they don't appear in applications folder ?

Many add-ons (like GPGMail) go in your user account Library/Mail/MailBundles and will land up in your user account Library/Mail/MailBundles (Disabled). At least that's where I think they go, I recently cleaned out a broken-by-10.6.6 GPGMail so the path may not be right but it's got "Bundles" and "Disabled" in its name.
One other thing that I have found that I had to do was trash my Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist which was a hassle because of the customization with the toolbar and accounts that gets blown away. The work-around for that, for in the future, is that before you add any mail add-ons, is to make a copy of your user account Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist before you add your add-on. That way, when an update breaks your add-on, you trash the MailBundles (Disabled) folder and the current com.apple.mail.plist and copy the old com.apple.mail.plist.saved back to the com.apple.mail.

"On My Mac" saved mail gone since upgrading to Mountain Lion

I upgraded my iMac from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion this past week. Mail worked fine for a few days and then my Mail Rules and my "On My Mac" saved mail (DECADES worth of mail!!!) disappeared.
I have both a Time Machine backup of my Snow Leopard from right before the upgrade, as well as a SuperDuper clone.
I have already tried the following:
Rebuilding the mailbox (it rebuilt my Inbox, but nothing showed up "On My Mac" and no, nothing is hidden.
Copying the Mail folder from my Snow Leopard backup to my Mountain Lion desktop and copying the .mbox files and associated .plist files for the "On My Mac" saved mail into the "Mailbox" folder in V2 on Mountain Lion. When I then launched Mail it showed "On My Mac" and the names of all of my saved mail folder, but those folders were empty. I attempted to rebuild those folders, but nothing showed up.
Importing the .mbox files from the "On My Mac" saved mail, but it only showed two Sent Items folders as being able to be imported. None of my actual "On My Mac" many saved mail folders.
I could really use some help here. I have already posted on Macintouch and nothing suggested has helped thus far.
I really cannot lose my saved mail. The contents of each of those .mbox saved mail folders absolutely contains my saved email. There are tons of "emlx" files.
Thanks!

Misery loves company. ;-)
Glad you found yours. What did you do to make it show up in Mail again?
I just got off the phone with Apple support and still have no resolution. I got kicked up one level and now that person has to kick it up again because they don't know how to fix my problem. I have been told it could be up to 48 hours until I hear from someone again. Ugh
Your mention of the "archive" folder sent me to look at my mailbox structure.
For some reason, I appear to have 2 mailboxes for my .Mac email (sorry - I still call it .Mac!). I don't know why, and each has 1GB of stuff in it. The first one has an archive.mbox with only a .plist in it. No folders. The other one has neither a .plist nor a folder. The other .mbox stuff has both a .plist and a folder with individual files (emails).
I really shouldn't have to revert to Snow Leopard to get my stuff back. There has got to be a way to have Mountain Lion Mail read my Saved Mail (On My Mac) folder. It's got 3GB of stuff in there.

TS3988 How do I add a folder to my email account?

I have added folders in the past and I can't remember how I did it and I need to add another folder, how do I do it?

If you're using OS X 10.5.8, you'll have to go to icloud.com, sign in and open Mail, then click the "+" at the top of the folder list on the left sidebar.

Does anyone have any efficient techniques for saving mail on more than one machine and in the cloud (I need offline access). Trying to avoid endless message copying.

I've been in an administrative job at my university, in which I needed to be able to access lots of past email conversations. I ended up saving *everything* religiously, by copying each email or conversation into an "On My Mac" folder on either my home or office machine, flagging it as copied, then unflagging it and moving it to a like folder on the other machine. As a result I'v now got a trillion folders for various aspects of my job, filled with quite a few messages that I probably no longer even need, but they're way too many to go through and delete one by one. Unfortunately, I haven't made much use of the iCloud folders, but I'm so tired of having to essentially manually sync my stored mail in the manner I just described, that I'm thinking of starting to file everything to iCloud folders. The downside of that is that obviously if the internet is down and a given folder wasn't refreshed before it went down, I won't have access to the saved mail.
Moreover, I'm about to step down from the admin post -- within about 6 months a lot of what I saved won't be needed at all, and going forward, I won't need to save nearly the same quantity of messages for later reference. I'd like to come up with some viable "triage" strategies for limiting the mail I do save.
This is really just an open question: Does anyone have any good mail filing and storage techniques that you'd be willing to share? I'm especially interested in criteria you use for what you save and don't save, and where/how you save it.

Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

With Netscape all of the Webcam shots from live feeds were automatically saved in my cache folder and I could simply open my cache send the saved files into AcDsee and convert them into jpgs, It would save as many as I would allow space for. With firefox

I cant retrieve my images from webcams that are cached any more with mozilla. With netscape all of the live webcam images from live cams were automatically saved in my cache folder and all i had to do was open it send the files to acdsee and turn them into jpgs. It would save them untill the Cache ran out of room no matter how many files or sites I had running. Mozilla seems to save what it wants when it wants and often dose not save any that I can retrieve because I believe it is bulking them into Cache 123 or 4 and those i cant open to retrieve the files. Sometimes it saves 100 or so and sometimes 2 or 3 sometimes 10 or more but i don't seem to have any control over what it does or does not save to retrieve no matter how much space i allow for the cache to save.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I finally gave up trying to keep netscape due to all the ridiculess popups and continued reminders from you saying i had to switch over

You have or had an extension installed (Ant.com Toolbar) that has changed the user agent from Firefox/3.6.3 to Firefox/3.0.12.
You can see the Firefox version at the top and the user agent at bottom of the "Help > About" window (Mac: Firefox > About Mozilla Firefox).
You can check the '''general.useragent''' prefs on the '''about:config''' page.
You can open the ''about:config'' page via the location bar, just like you open a website.
Filter: '''general.useragent'''
If ''general.useragent'' prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose ''Reset''.

How do I save the contents of all of my saved mail folders?

How do I save the contents of all of my saved mail folders?

Oh, I see...
All the mail is stored in ~/Library/Mail (and its associated subdirectories).
Your Library holder is hidden by default under Mountain Lion (and Lion, too?), so hold the Option key when selecting the Window menu in the Finder to add it to the menu, from where you can access it.

Is there a way to add a folder to my ipad

hi can i add a folder to put all my read or finished with emails, cant seem to be able to.
anyone know, i have an imac and that does it no probs but dont seem to have the option on my ipad ????

Cannot believe the so called experts do not know how to add a Folder in iPad Mail. Yes if yours is a POP account you cannot do it in your main acoount. But if you go into your mail folder where all your Mailboxes are under the Accounts list at the bottom is a list of any accounts you have. One of them should be iCloud, this is an IMAP account. Click on iCloud, and the Folder that opens has an edit button at the top, click on that and at the bottom it has a New Mailbox button, select that and it allows you to add a Folder and name it what you like, you can do this as many times as you want. After that you can select any email you receive, select edit, at the bottom there are three options, one is Move, select that and you can move the email to the folder of your choice, Remember these Folders will be in the iCloud Account.

How do I, Add a folder to BIS Email account

Hi!
I use a cpanel email account (IMAP4) on my blackberry apart form my gmail account,
Now i already know from http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB05133 that it isnt possible for my blackberry device to automatically sync the sent items folder, but what I want to know is that is there any way to add to the list of folders that are currently being synced to the blackberry? (By default it only syncs Inbox and Spam) I want to add another folder say 'work' which does not go to my inbox, and hence does not come to the phone.
Also, I am using dovecot as my imap server so my folders are not children of my 'INBOX' folder!
Many thanks
~Salil Jain

I don't know Dovecot, but it sounds like you're going to need to first have that email you define as "work" email directed to that "work" folder on your server. The thought being that the RIM server looks at your Inbox for new mail messages to push to the BlackBerry handheld. If the email is first directed away from that Inbox, then it shouldn't get pushed.
In short, that's going to be a function of your server, not the BlackBerry, unless I am missing something you are asking.

User not able to save e-mails from public folder

Hi,
I have a email user with a complain that she is not able to save some e-mails from public folder, nor their attachments, nor to forward them to her own inbox. This happen not for all emails but randomly for some emails in her public folder.
She can open and read but got following error message , while trying to save the attachment of the email
"Cannot save the attachment. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object. See the folder contact or your system administrator"
The following error occurred when she trying to forward the email.
"Cannot open this item. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on the object. See the folder contact or your system administrator"
I have tried to grant "Edit All" in the write permission area, later tried with "owner permission" too but still having the same errors.
I found out in some occasion when the email is read only then it cannot be forwarded, copy or print the contents.
I see emails in the public folder appeared with "Read only" but most of them can be saved and forward, only few appear with errors for the user. I did checked the emails "Restrict permission" setting and that display
with "No restriction".
How can I get rid of the errors and allow the user to save the attachment and also save the email in different location of the public folder.
Thanks
Selvem

Hi,
Please check if you can move these affected messages to Inbox folder.
And please check if the issue persists in OWA.
Does this issue affect only one user?
If this issue only affects one user, you can recreate Outlook profile to check result.

Trouble saving mail attachments

Lately I have problems saving mail attachments: I first need to shorten the title and then the file does not show up in the folder I saved it too. When I want to create new folders to save attachments in, I can't because of a read-only issue. Any suggestions?

View ▹ Show View Options ▹ Arrange by: None

I have saved mail in folders but now can't find the folders.

As an example, mail about my hobbies is saved in the Hobby folder but the only time I see the Hobby folder on my iPad is when I'm saving a message. I want to retrieve some of those messages from time to time but don't know where to go or how to do it. The User Guide didn't cover this as far as I could tell. Thanks.

Have you got 'Find My iPad' enabled? This has to be turned off using the original ID address.
Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
However if the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the initial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
