Sbc Yahoo Mail Account in Mail

I was curious how I could set up my SBC Yahoo! mail in Apple Mail. What settings do I put for outgoing and incoming mail. What do I put for authentication?

Thanks, You know..... it happened with me once before when I first use the windows live mail client.... I contacted yahoo staff and they replied with the same as you replied......( I thought that there is way to do what I wanted )...
By the way they advised me, if I wanted to get my folders .... I have to MOVE messages from specific folder to INBOX then SYNC imail then CREATE folder in imail with the same name as in my yahoo and so on !!!!
OK, if there are ways to sync the WINDOWS LIVE MAIL accounts and its folders, it will be great..... Does anyone know HOW TO ?

Mail Accounts in Mail

I had to re-establish one of my e-maila accounts in Mail and I can't see any messages. It shows me how many messages are unread in the left panel, but no messages are displayed in the main window. Can someone suggest a fix?

If you deleted the account in Mail in order to re-create it, you deleted all messages in account mailboxes. If the account was a POP account, those messages are probably not still on the server, but you can be sure by selecting the account, pressing command-i and seeing what messages are reported as being on the server. If the account was IMAP, then the messages should all still be on the server. You may simply need to force the account to sync (Mailbox -> Synchronize All Accounts).
If the messages are gone, do you have any backups?

Hello, on about the second step, it doesn't give you a choice of POP, IMAP, or Exchange? Or does it change it to POP if you choose IMAP anyway?
Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?

When I try to set up e-mail accounts the mail settings icon goes back to main screen. I have tried restoring and the same thing happens.

I have a new ipad2 3G and have a vodafone sim. Internet is working, but when I try to follow instructions to set up e-mail accounts (Settings/Mail Settings) it pops back to the main menu screen. I have restored and checked that restrictions are set to off, but still the same thing happens.

If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

Can't delete mail account from Mail

Hello -
Am new to OS X Server.
I bought a MacMini server and have been fiddling with various settings, learning how best to deploy it in my business. Once I feel comfortable, I am planning to wipe it and start a fresh.
But at the moment, on my MBP, I have two identical IMAP accounts in Mail - both linked to the mail service on the server. I can delete one of them - but it reappears a few moments later. The second one reappears instantly.
I have "Unlinked" my MBP with the server in logon options under preferences - but this doesn't seem to help.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can delete them?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew

Identical problem
- Mail service automatically configured [email protected] I allowed this in response to server's invitation. I had one local server mail account under Mail 4.1 and disabled it, instantly creating two more that I can't disable because the "Save" responds that the path (/Users/Me/Library/Mail/[email protected]) is taken. And when "-" removing them they instantly reappear. I can remove two and tell the last one not to get mail but unchecking "Enable" and save (only by leaving that account) only makes all three instantly reappear.
- In Server Preferences, for each user, I can't turn off Mail service. Gear spin flashes. Checkbox stays off but switch to another user and back and it's checked Mail again. Deleting the Contact Info > Contact > jabber and email still won't let you uncheck Mail.
- In Server Preferences clicking on User then Group then User again accounts started disappearing. User gone, another, all gone. Then can't run Server Preferences because it can't log in. "There may be a problem with the Open Directory Service." Restart server again. All back. Still can't uncheck Mail service.

I have a yahoo mail account address - Mail will not work with that?

I tried to mail an email using my Yahoo mail account address. Mail sent it back to me saying that Yahoo rejected it.
Do I just keep using mailing from Yahoo instead of Mail to keep things working?
When I click on an e-mail address Mail does come up as my default mail program. How can I change that back to Yahoo using Safari? I've asked that question of Yahoo, but they just tell me to use Firefox, which I do not want to do. I like Safari and will simply fight the Mail program back if I have to. There must be a way to get it under control though - I hope.
I do use Mail to back up notes from my iPhone. It does work for that just fine.
TIA,
Ken

"Second Step: Launch Mail/Preferences/General/Default email reader and choose Google Notifier.app from the list. Now the mailto links will also bring up a blank email, ready for you to fill out and send by using your Gmail account. "
Here is Mail getting in the way again. I appreciate your information, I downloaded Notifier and got to the point of above, needing to go to preferences in Mail. Mail will not let me go to preferences unless I give Mail an e-maill account to service. I do not want Mail to service an account. Mail is a nasty obtrusive program that wants to be in the driver's seat of my computer system. If I give Mail my gmail account set up again, using that italian program that also is a hack to my system, I will need to do that just to access Mail preferences so I can tell Mail that it is okay to use Gmail?
Something is fishy in Denmark to be sure.
I'm going to delete Notifier.app until I am able to see what gives with Mail.
Thanks, I thought that was going to be the answer. Mail has stopped me in my tracks again.
OOoommmm..... (counting to 10)

Later post, I think this post has also taken it that I want to use Mail, Read my many statements, over a dozen by now, that I do not want to use Mail. I want to compose my outgoing mail in GMail. I want GMail to be my default mail program. I wan Apple Mail to Die! (at this point, that seems impossible to accomplish.)
It's simple, but I will repeat and repeat. I simply want to be able to click on a link, like a link in Craigslist to respond to an ad, and have the GMail compose e-mail come up ready to respond to the Craigslist ad.
Ken
EVen more frustration now, I tried the notifier icon in the menu bar and selected compose mail and it tried to open up Apple Mail. How can I get rid of Apple Mail and let my system know that I want the GMail account to come up to compose my email in GMail (what I was trying to do with Yahoo until I got nowhere with Yahoo, now I'm trying to see if I can get GMail to work as my default mail program.

Set up a yahoo email account in mail

Are you subscribing to Yahoo 'Mail Plus'? - http://mailplus.mail.yahoo.com/ - this is necessary for POP access.

Can't connect my yahoo mail account with Mail

I was using Mail 6.5 with my Yahoo account and lost the ability to connect last week when I change my Yahoo password. I enter the new password in mail, but it won't work.

Hi, omalon.
Thank you for the question. You may find this article helpful in troubleshooting the issue with your Yahoo mail account.

I am constantly prompted to verify my password for my ATT (Yahoo) email account in Mail.

Every frew minutes I am prompted to reenter/verify my ATT email account in Mail. This has been working flawlessly until a few weeks ago. I tried deleting and recreating the account with no success.
ATT uses Yahoo to host their email and I use the imap inbound and outbound server settings. I can still receive and send using that account but have to respond to the "enter your password pop-up every few minutes even though the password field is populated.

I am also searching for the "fix" as mine hase been doing the same for about 3-4 months now and this is OLD... there are a lot of people working on this from the "communities forum" but Apple is doing nothing about it so far... I have also searched the Yahoo communities for a "fix" but the trolls just tell everyong to move to Gmail... LOL... so I will hope you(and the rest of us= alot) get an answer in here... If I find the "fix" elsewhere, I will be back to post here...

How do I set up an IMAP Yahoo! Beta mail account in MAIL app?

Hi there!
I would like to know how do I set up an IMAP mail account from Yahoo! Mail Beta in Mail app. Can someone help me?
THX!

Please disregard my post above. It appears that Yahoo does now indeed have IMAP access. From Wikipedia:
"Free IMAP and SMTPs access
It is possible to get direct IMAP access. Yahoo! operates IMAP and secure IMAP servers (imap.mail.yahoo.com in particular), which are globally accessible. However they require a specific, non-standard IMAP command to be sent before login is done, namely: “ID ("GUID" "1")”. This non standard command is not required if accessed from mobile networks, typically those used by smart phones on mobile carriers such as AT&T, T-Mobile, etc... For regular internet users, it is feasible to modify an open-source e-mail client to send the ID command, and there are modified versions of Mutt and Mozilla Thunderbird available to download.[25] Alternatively, one can connect an unmodified e-mail client through an IMAP proxy that adds the ID command. A commercial software package that accomplishes this is called 'Yahoo IMAP Connector',[26] available here. Mutt-dev (1.5) works without any modifications.
It is also possible to send mail through mail clients as Yahoo! also operates an SMTP server (smtp.mail.yahoo.com). It is necessary to enable SSL through port 465. For IMAP and SMTPS access the username is the user's Yahoo! Mail address and the password is the same as for webmail access.
Mac OS X users can directly set up an IMAP account in Apple Mail 4.4. After entering a full name, email address and password, hold down the Option key. The Create button will change to Continue, allowing one to manually configure the account settings."

Configuring mail account in Mail App with restriction account on

Hi there,
How is possible to create an account in Mail App with the restriction Accounts enable?
I explain myself. I configure all the iPads of my business with the restrictions enabled and select "Don´t Allow Changes" on the Accounts tab.
Settings > General > Restrictions> ( Enter Passcode ) >Enable Restrictions> Accounts > Don´t Allow Changes
It suppouses to prevent any change or create an account on Mail App, but I´ve found a couple of iPads with a Yahoo and GMail account configured in the Mail App while the restrictions still enabled.
Of course, users doesn´t know the Passcode and any of the general setting where modified.
Is there any other way ( via web perhaps, no high tech at all ) to configure an account in a restricted iPad?
I´m using iPad 2 ( iOS 5.0.1 )
I can´t figure out how, and it´s driving me crazy.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks gyrhead for the answer.
I do have Installing and Deleting Apps turned on so users can´t install or delete anything.
Guessing a four digits passcode in 10 attemps is very dificult, I discard that option.
There is somehow to add a Yahoo o Gmail account with account Restictions Enable.
Safari has no restriction indeed, except "private brownsing", so it might come from that way, but I can´t figured out how you might configure a Gmail o Yahoo account straight to the Mail App using just Safari...

How can I change the default mail account in mail v6.3

I have in my mail preferences four accounts. The first one is a "Google IMAP" and all others are just "IMAP". When I'm composing a new email it defaults to the wrong account. Intuitively I think the the first account listed under mail preference would be the default one, but I'm unable to move the order. How to I change this?

To change your default mail account, you just have to change the mail accounts order in the Mail sidebar. First of all, if you don't see your mailboxes under "Inbox" (at the top of the sidebar), press the arrow, and your mail accounts will appear.
Now, you just have to drag the mail account you want by default to the first position

How do I delete my g-mail account from Mail on my iPhone?

I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 8.1.3. I've had my g-mail account on it until today. My g-mail account had been hijacked. I reset my password and disabled the account. Now, even if I activate the account again I cannot enter my new password. I tried to find a way to delete the account completely and start over, but I can't seem to find the right way. Any help? Step by step would help a great deal.

If you scroll downwards on that page, it should appear there.

Something is wrong with default mail account. Mail ignores the default one and uses another.

Hi! I use two accounts on Mail: @gmail.com and @mail.ru. The @mail.ru is used as default. So all answers have to be sent from mail.ru, however it is not - they go from @gmail.com. What is wrong?

When I reply to emails that were sent to my business account, Mail automatically responds using my .mac email address. It will not reply using my business account.
Very frustating and time consuming, having to go to the drop-down menu of email accounts, select my business account and then reply.
Did not work this way before the "upgrade."
Any solutions from anyone or from Apple??
