Send BCCs to self from iPhone to Sent folder in Mail

On my iPhone, I've enabled the option to always BCC myself on outgoing messages, so that I can have a copy stored on my computer (when I open Mail to grab messages) for archive purposes.
But it doesn't make much sense to have these messages from myself to myself showing up in my inbox. I want them to be in my Sent folder, which I can do manually via right-click > Move To... but I'd much rather this happen automatically.
I tried setting up a rule for this but there's option to screen based on a BCC recipient.
Any ideas?

Check out this link - it's in the "More Like This" box to the right of your post:
Rule for BCC
I just tried
{From} {Contains} emailaddress
and it seems to work.

Email sent on my iphone 5 does not show in the sent folder in mail on my macbook pro and vice versa especially since update to Yosemite

I have an iphone 5 and a Macbook pro. Since upgrading to Yosemite, when I send an email from my yahoo email account or another email account linked to my website, on my iphone, the emails don't show in the sent folder in mail on my macbook pro and vice versa.
I have deleted the accounts and re-created them on both my iphone and macbook pro but the samething keeps happening.
When last I was at the istore, they were unable to sort it out and said I needed to book it in.
Any suggestions that will prevent me from booking my macbook pro in are welcome.

Hi,
Are you saying you are trying to synch iMessages across two iPhones ?
Or do you mean you are trying to get iMessage that were synced to one iPhone to show on another ?
Whilst the first is possible - from the date you add the second iPhone the second is not possible.

Is there any way to make the sent folder in mail list emails "to" instead of "from"

Is there any way to make the sent folder in mail list emails in the "to" order instead of "from".

Sure open Sent folder.
Just above first message is an icon titled Sort By Date followed by a downward pointing arrow.
Click on the arrow and select "To" from the list.

When using iphoto to e-mail photos the resulting e-mail doesn't show up in sent folder of mail.

There seems to be a an incompatibility within iphoto when you share images from within Iphoto using Apple Mail. The e-mail seems to send fine but when you try to go back and look for it in the sent folder of mail, it isn't there....
Also, when the recipient of the e-mail with the photos replies to your e-mail, the resulting reply that you receive in Apple Mail is not viewable. It shows up in the list of e-mails, but can not be opened...
Anyone else seeing these issues?

Nope - have not seen that complaint here are all
Just to verify - you are using Apple Mail? It does not sound like it. You set it in the iPhoto preferences. If you are using the default iPhoto mail rather than Apple mail then there is no sent folder and people on PCs may have trouble viewing the photos
If you are using Apple mail try exporting a photo and attaching it and try doing one using the Mail media browser and see - as far as mail is concerned there is no difference between starting the mail from iPhoto and starting it from mail

"Sent" folder in Mail doesn't sync with "Sent" folder on Gmail. PLEASE HELP!!!!

I am completely stumped by this and really REALLY frustrated.
I can't figure out how to make the "sent" folder in mail (i.e the one with the paper plane icon) contain ALL my sent messages from Gmail.
It works perfectly fine on my iPhone and iPad but just not mail on my mac!!!
I am using Mail version 4.5 and Snow Leopard.
PLEASE someone HELP!!!
Thanks

I'm new here so you'll have to bear with me if my explanation needs work!
I suspect that your problem may be that your Mac is storing the sent stuff on the local folder (probably hapening with junk and trash too???) If this is the case then...
Make sure you have the correct IMAP path prefix - entered in Mail Preferences > Accounts > Advanced - I believe that the prefix you need is Gmail
Quit Mail so it doesn't interfere with what you're doing,
Open ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist with the Property List Editor
Take a back up copy (I saved mine to desk top) of com.apple.mail.plist
Look for the key named MailAccounts and click the arrow to expand it
you should see all your accounts indexed as 0, 1, 2, etx
Find your IMAP accounts (check that the key AccountType is IMAPAccount)
Find the key SentMessagesMailboxName and change it to Gmail/Sent (substitute INBOX for IMAP Path Prefix if incorrect)
Find the key TrashMailboxName and change it to Gmail/Trash
I think I had to do the same with junk too
Hope that is of some use or at least makes enough sense :-)

How do you send iMessage to iPad from iphone, I cannot type "@" in message

I have my ipad updated and set it to use my email for the imessage in my iPad
then, I realized that I cannot type "@" in the imessage in iPhone (therefore, cannot type mail address)
how to do send an imessage from iPhone to iPad?
thanks for the help

I am having the same problem. The email addresses for my contacts do not appear on the iPhone, they do appear on the iPad. So if I want to imessage my wife from my iPhone I only get the option to send to her email address, if I do it from my iPad I get her email.
The only way that I have found so far is to go into my Contacts and at the very bottom select Send Message, then I can select her email.
For some reason the @ is missing since when I select the 123 button it gives me the dial keyboard instead of the special characters keyboard.

Mail Sending One, but leaves 2 in the Sent folder

Mail is leaving duplicates in my "Sent" folder when I send anything, even though it only sends one email. I've tried to correct the problem by following the procedure posted below, but it didn't solve the problem.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6668989&#6668989
I'm looking for other possible solutions.

The email was sent from my mac.com account and it is not visible also when I access the Sent folder on iCloud.

HT1529 how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

The reason it will not be in the sent folder is, it failed to send.
If it failed to send, then you will see the Outbox icon. 'Pending' would be a more descriptive name.
When it eventually sends, the Outbox will not show in the Mail app interface.
Until it is sent it will stay stuck in the Outbox.
If it refuses to send, you can manually delete it in Finder, at the location ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Outbox.mbox
Close Mail first, before you search for that email using the Finder.

Is it possible to trigger a transaction from an email sent to SAP mail box?

Hi All,
I have found a strange requirement where a transaction has to be triggered by double clicking on a line in the email sent to SAP Mail box...!!!
The requirement is, a batch input program has to be executed and an email with error details has to be sent to the address specified in the parameter of the selection screen. If user double clicks on the error details, transaction SM35 should be called to rerun the batch...
Hope I am clear.
Thanks in Advance,
Phani.

Hi Phani,
Not sure if this can be achieved using ABAP. But may be possible using workflow. Don't have much idea on workflow :(. Wait for others suggestion.

Duplicate Messages in Sent Folder--Apple mail and gmail

I recently started using apple mail for my two gmail accounts.
I have properly configured all folders (highlight "trash" from gmail and click use this mailbox for..)
since i have two gmail accounts, i did this for both of them.
i did a couple of test emails from my main gmail account. now, in my sent folder it's showing duplicates for what i've sent, one from my main gmail account, one from my second gmail account.
I've tried to uncheck the box where it saves messages on server in preferences, and that seemed to work. however, i checked on my iphone and my sent message showed up..not in my main gmail account sent mail, but in my secondary gmail account sent mail.
can this be fixed?

check out the settings here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892#
specifically:
From the Mail menu, click Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors
Drafts:
Store draft messages on the server > do NOT check
Sent:
Store sent messages on the server > do NOT check
Junk:
Store junk messages on the server > checked
Delete junk messages when > Never
Trash:
Move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox > do NOT check
Store deleted messages on the server > do NOT check

Hi,
Is the email account setup as POP, IMAP, or Exchange?
Try Restarting the iPhone by holding the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears> then slide to turn off> and turn the iPhone back on by pressing the Sleep/Wake again, as described on page 34 of the iPhone User Guide.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iPhoneUserGuide.pdf
If the issue persists, try deleting the account from the iPhone and adding it again.

My Applemail cannot send emails when tethering from Iphone

Hi,
When I tether internet from my Iphone to my laptop, I cannot send emails in applemail.
All other internet connections work fine, It looks to be the iphone perosnal hotspot thats not working.
Has anyone else faced this issue? What is a solution?

Most likely because your carrier is doing this to stop spammers.

Cannot send or receive pictures from iPhone 5c

I am unable to send or receive picture messages from my iphone 5c

Two things:
1. Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging must be "On".
2. Your cellular carrier account must be set up to send/receive MMS (may well cost extra).
