Select email address from list

I use a button in a form with a control type submit and a mailto: in the submit box. I'd like the email address following the mailto: to be picked from a drop down (in other words chosen by the user). Can someone offer some guidance on how to do that? Thanks,
Josh

Hope this helps!

How to select multiple addresses from the contacts list to send an email?

How do I select multiple addresses from the contacts list at one time to send an email. Each time I select one, the address book closes and I have to touch the "+" key to open it back to select another address. Is there a way to select all of them at one time instead of making a group? Thanks.

Yes, once you select a person from your Contacts app, you either need to select more from the '+' button or you can tap in the 'to:' field and type in the first few letters of a contact and select from the list. Kinda bummer but gotta make do.

How do I copy an email address from my address book into a new list that I am creating?

I am creating a new list for email and want to be able to select the email addresses from my existing address book. I don't seem to be able to do this very basic thing. Is there a trick that I don't know?

I can no longer select multiple addresses from my Mail address book when forwarding emails

Since updating to Mavericks I cannot select multiple addresses from my address book when forwarding emails.
I can select them individually using the + sign in the address bar but cannot select any when I open my Contact list as I have done with previous systems.
Additionly, the full address appears in the "To" window instead of just the name and without the email address. I have selected "Smart Address" from the Preferences menu, View section.
Help!

Why are you using a Hotmail or Live Mail SMTP server to send email with your Gmail account?
This is likely the cause of the problem. Use Gmail's authenticated SMTP server to send email with your Gmail account.

How do I delete old email addresses from the pop up list that comes up when I put a letter into the "To" box. These addresses are not in my address book.

How do I delete old email addresses from the pop-up list that comes up when I put a letter into the "To" box? They are not in my Address Book. Wrong addresses get in the way and I sometimes select the wrong one.

Edit the list the comes up when you go to the Window menu and select "Previous Recipients".

Has anyone got a script to read a list of email addresses from a Mail message and put them into a group in Contacts?

Has anyone got a script to read a list of email addresses from a Mail message header and put them into a group in Contacts?

Now Tony, I know you can't hear my tone on a forum post but I was not complaining, simply stating facts . This change brought several people in my office to a grinding halt in a long established workflow that is really rather simple (and I thought was already assumed from the original post above ):
1) Select a set of records in FileMaker Pro 12 and export only their e-mail addresses as a CSV file.
2) Open that CSV file in Excel.
3) Copy the column of e-mail address.
4) paste into the appropriate recipient field in Mail.
5) Send
If I were to complain it would be about Apple's typically opaque approach to updates. There is no granular explanation of why changes were made or even "what" changes were made.
Complaining is futile since Apple is Apple and is unlikely to change, but sometimes it is cathartic to "shout into the void" .
I had thought about doing something with a formula in Excel and your suggestion was simple and helpful. Again, however, it is only a workaround for a long established helpful behavior that Apple has inexplicably broken/removed in Mavericks Mail.
I, and the other posters here, would love to have the capability back rather than have to add previously unneeded steps to our workflows.
Ultimately we may add scripting steps to the FileMaker side to export the address lists with commas inserted already if Apple ends up having permanently removed this feature.

Giving users control of their own distribution list control to add or remove external email addresses from their list

We are a Exchange 2010 SP3 shop, we have distribution groups (with over 200 email addresses ) from another email system which has only external email addresses (i.e [email protected] [email protected] and so on …..)
We want to import these groups into exchange. we called microsoft, they said create mail contacts for each address and put those in a Distribution Group. I know this will work.
Our goal is to have the user create / maintain / add / remove external their own email addresses (Not the IT department)
There must be many companies whose requirements match ours. Are there third party tools that would handle creation of distribution list?
Any constructive advice would be greatly appreciated ! THank you

I wouldn't give the ability to create contacts to everyone in the environment because it will become mess at some point of time and IT will have to jump to control it
anyway so why don’t from the start...
I would give this to certain people like Leads or Managers of the groups under certain IT Policy so it will be still under control and people
will think before asking their superior to create them and someone gets responsibility to manage these contacts...
Though here is the more specific article on how to delegate creating and editing contacts...

When I select an email address from the dropdown menu and hit return, Thunderbird then fills in a different email address. Yosemite upgrade?

I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and this new "feature" appeared. I often have several email addresses that contain the same set of characters. I just type the first few characters and then select the appropriate email address from the dropdown menu that appears. But if I hit return afterwards to enter another email address, the first address gets switched back automatically to the first one that appeared in the dropdown menu. The more characters I type, the more accurate it is, but it totally defeats the purpose of autofill if I have to type the entire email address! Anyone else having this problem? And can you guys please fix it? If you select something from the dropdown menu, it should stay selected.
Thanks!

This forum is filled with this same complaint. There is a bug reported on it. If and when they fix it is another question.
Version 24.6 works if you want to go back to a working version.

Mail how to save an email address from new message created?

Hi, I create a new message, type in the address, but i want to save the address in the address book. How the heck is this possible?
If i select the email address i control click it, there is NO menu and no options to save the address.
If i click on the AddressBook button in the tool bar, there is no add button, and i can't drag it to across either, or copy/paste.
The Help says "In a message that you are sending, click the arrow in a Smart Address you have entered and choose "Add to Address Book" from the pop-up menu." There is absolutely NO arrow and NO menu. Even when i turn ON 'Use Smart Addresses' There is absolutely Nothing in ANY menu that lets me save the address.
So how the frell is it even possible to save an address? So what, i have to send the email first then wait for someone to reply before i can select 'Add sender to AddressBook' from the message menu? This is madness and certainly not easy or intuitive. And what is the point of the AddressBook button in new messages toolbar?It does nothing. It opens a window and has no options to add an address or enter any details, only has 'TO' But i already know the address!!! Even if i create a new mail , I click the Address book button highlight the address in the list then click the 'TO' button, it does absolutely nothing, im expecting it to just add this address to the address field in the new mail i just created. I then closed the new mail, instead i click the AddressBook button in the main Mail app toolbar, i select an address in the resulting window, hit the 'TO" button, and mail creates a new message, but it doesn't add the address to the new mail's address field, nor does it close it self behind. What a disaster. I thought this was supposed to be simple and eazy, its a nightmare of a design.
I tried 10.4.5 and now just upgraded to 10.4.6 same problem.
Frustrated at the lack of intuitiveness.

Simplest I find is to send the message then look at it in your Sent mailbox. Move the mouse over the To: address and the address will get a blue bubble background with a drop-down arrow at the right end; click this and one of the options should be "add to address book".
When you start a new message, and click the Address book icon on its toolbar, an address book window should appear with all the entries (individual and group) from your address book. Selecting one (or several) of the entries and clicking to will add them to the To header in your new mail. Alternatively you can drag them. If this is not the behaviour you are seeing, please repost with a more descriptive subject. (It is better for both those trying to help, and those seeking solutions, if the problem described matches the subject!)
Once you have brought up the little address book window its design behaviour is to stay until you dismiss it; as you say, it does not close when you close the new email. At this stage, selecting an entry and clicking To should start a new email with the To header containing the selected email address. If this is not happening I suspect it is related to your previous problem, so I would include the description there.

How can i paste a column of email addresses from an excel spreadsheet into a Mail message To: window

In the past I have been able to send a group email by copying a column of email addresses from an Excel spreadsheet and pasting it into the To: window of an email message I had composed. I simply dragged my cursor down the column containing the email addresses, right-clicked Copy, put my cursor into the To: window of the email, and hit Paste. Mail recognized the list as a series of email addresses and I was able to hit Send and the email went on its way.
Today I tried to do this and after I hit Send I got an error message. It appears to me that Mail did not recognize the list as a series of individual email addresses but saw them as one long address; the error message said it "did not appear to be a valid email address". Has something changed in Mail? I recently installed Mavericks!
I can't be the only one who sends group emails this way. Are others experiencing this problem?

Accessing a user email address from the database

Hi,
I really need help with the following.
I am adding functionality where users can set reminders that will then be sent to them by email when the reminder is due. I am going to utilise dbms_job to do this. My problem is that I am using apex authentication and users for the rest of the application and I need to retrieve the email address from apex. I cannot use wwv_flow_users as the email will be sent from a job in the database therefore there will be no current logged in user / workspace / session.
There must be some way of accessing an internal apex table / view or something that can tell me what the email addresses of my users are without being signed into an apex session.
Please help, this is quite urgent.
Thank you in advance.
Lee

Hi,
Glad to see that you've found.
However would be very interesting to know how to retrieve user list without being in an Apex workspace.
i would do as follows:
When the first user of the day log into apex you could update a static table containig the email (taken select into from www_flow_user once a day).
Then via a trigger you could start your batch proc, that needs updated email.
Is not clean at all, but probably if your firm isn't too big this approach could work.
By the way if you find how to retrieve the email not using www_flow_user, would be very nice to know.

How can I export email addresses from apple mail?

How can I export email addresses from Apple Mail?
Just to be CRISTAL CLEAR please don't reply with export instructions from the address book.....not interested in this.
I have customers that fill-out a request form online, then the data is sent to our database on our server, and another copy is sent to my email account. The server database got corrupted and is now lost. The only data left are in my email app called APPLE MAIL. I have created Filtered Folders so the data is just in one Folder, not mixed with all other emails. Is there a way to export the email names & addresses from APPLE MAIL to a CVS file or Excel file?
Again this is not a question related to Apple Address Book. This is ONLY for Apple MAIL exporting!
Thanks

There is a collection of AppleScripts called Mail Scripts you can download at this link.
http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html
The script to use from the collection of scripts is Add Addresses (Mail) which adds addresses found in the selected messages (in the header fields "From", "To", "Cc", and "Bcc") to the Address Book. This is much more flexible than the "Add Sender to Address Book" available in Mail and provides a convenient way for creating mailing lists.

How do I set up email addresses from my address book?

How do I set up email addresses from my address book?

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. If you are coming from pre-Mountain Lion, then Address Book has changed to Contacts.
Open Contacts.
Select an Account in the group list, if you want the contact in a specific group. If Groups aren't showing, you can display them from the View menu.
Click the Add card button ( + ).
Enter the information for the contact.
If you need multiple entries for a particular field type, a new blank entry will show up below the one you are adding.
If you need other fields, use the Card menu to Add a new field type.
If you want to change the default fields available when you create a new card, choose Edit Template…
If you have sent emails to someone and you want to get that address to add to a Contact, use the Previous Recipients command in the View menu in Mail.
If you need to add a new Group, hover the cursor over the account name, and a + button will appear. Click it.

Cannot add email addresses from my address book

I can send one email using my address book by clicking "send email" in the drop down menu. I cannot add multiple email addresses from the address book - each time I clid "send email" an entirely new message is craeated. I don't necessarily need a group. I am using new mail in Lion, mail 5.2. "To" no longer is an active link to the address book. Is there a way to make it work like mail worked before this upgrade?

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. If you are coming from pre-Mountain Lion, then Address Book has changed to Contacts.
Open Contacts.
Select an Account in the group list, if you want the contact in a specific group. If Groups aren't showing, you can display them from the View menu.
