Setting up Mail for different locations

I have enjoyed using a MacBook Pro at several locations including my home and office. I use wireless at home (airport extreme) and connect using ethernet or wireless at work. While my programs and safari work seamlessly at both locations, I cannot access my e-mail using Mail unless I am at home on my home network. I used the Connection Doctor while at work, but it only indicated that I wasn't connected. While it was saying that, I was simultaneously searching for solutions to this problem on safari and updating my software using software update. Does anyone have any suggestion for how to set up Mail at work?

I would suggest posting this question in the "Applications > Mail and Address book" Discussion board.

New Document Series for different locations for Production Orders

Hi Experts,
I have came across a scenario where we have to setup different Document Series for Different Locations. Actually the Company is having 2 units . First one is the factory itself and the second one is Subcontracting Unit to which the company sends the job work order . But there it wishes to track the productions processes and the Stock tracking Warehouse Wise for
this Second unit also . As Such I have created 2 locations and one warehouse for (RM,SFG,FG) for both the units.
The obvious requirement here is to maintain different Document Series for Productions orders for both the units .
Please guide me about how to overcome this scenario.
Thanks and Regards,
Pooja Singh.

Hi Pooja,
Yes. You can maintain different document series for production Order or any documents depending upon your business scenario. Let's say, you need to maintain Production orderu2019s of job work and sub contracting.
You can define this under Administration>System Initialization> Document numbering.
Select Production orders--> let say Factory first number 1, last number 199999, select current period indicator and update. Similarly for the subcontracting, in the name field, "work order", first number as 110001 or the way you desire, and then the last number.

Setting up Mail for the first time with OSX Server 10.5.6

I just got done reading the 100+ page mail services administration manual. A few things are unclear and I wanted to clear those up prior to embarking on my first adventure configuring mail services.
The questions I have are the following:
1. When using mail for incoming and outgoing, do I 'have' to use local DNS services or can I simply change the MX records by my DNS Provider?
2. I have more than one IP on the server using the 'IP Alias' command. Will the mail server be able to distinguish the different mail domains base on IP Address, or will virtual domains need to be configured?
3. If virtual domains need to be configured, is this configuration simple or is it semi complex?
4. Provided the answer to questions two and three, what is the best configuration for the firewall settings on the server? Allow IMAP inbound, POP3, and SMTP? What else?
Thanks in advance

1. Mail service relies heavily on DNS. You may run your own DNS servers on the same network as your mail server or you can use a DNS provider to host your zone data including your MX record.
2. Your server will listen on all available network devices by default. It will only accept those messages for the hosts that are listed in the general pane, the local host list, or the virtual domain list under the advanced pane. No virtual domains need to be configured if all users are real users (i.e. shows up in WorkGroup Manager).
3. As stated in (2), you do not need virtual domains to receive e-mail for multiple hostnames or domain names, but you may want to do so if you want separate accounts with same usernames for different domains. E.g. [email protected] and [email protected] will go to two separate inboxes. It's not that difficult, but rather tedious if you already have a lot of e-mail accounts set up.
4. You must allow SMTP through the firewall to receive mail from the outside world. Depending on your clients, you may open IMAP or POP. There are no other specific ports necessary for mail to work at this level... except for Submission (587). Many ISP's block port 25 for mail clients. You may want to use port 587 for submissions so that your mobile users don't have to switch back and forth between the two ports when they change locations. This is done by editing /etc/imapd.conf manually.

Syncronization: How can i store mail for different accounts remotely, and copy most important mails manually to local folders on two devices?

Hello. I have two devices and two accounts, so what i want is this:
I only want to store mail from both accounts in a remote place and copy most important mails to local folders.
(I will be grateful for any ideas as to where/how this "cloud" can be - specially free places)
* Can I have a copy of these local folders in both devices and the remote storage?
* Could i synchronize devices so that: when i move a mail to a local folder in any device, its copied to the same folders in
the other device and the remote storage place?
* The remote storage place will have many other folders. When I open Thunderbird, I also want to see these and the mail
inside, and also be able to move mail from the inbox to these folders.
* One of the accounts is gmail. In Account Setting tool, there is an option for synchronization. If there is no easier way, I can have mail for other account copied to gmail, and just syncronize gmail mail. For this, how will I copy my present folder structure to gmail. And how can I syncronize the local folders on the two devices?
Thanks in advance.

The first awkwardness I see is that there's no obvious format in which to store messages remotely such that you can work with them in an email client. It may be possible to set the "Local Directory" option in the account in Thunderbird to point at some remote folder (DropBox comes to mind) but I have never tried this and I'd be nervous about what happens if connection can't be made, or if you happened to access it from two different places simultaneously. The other concern is that mail stores get big, quickly, and you'd be forever uploading and downloading large (multi gigabyte) files. Thunderbird stores what looks like a folder containing many separate messages as one big file, so there's no simple opportunity for incremental changes to be up/down loaded.
The whole idea of Local Folders in Thunderbird is to detach messages from servers, so they don't track what happens on servers. I say this to point out the distinction between files stored locally and permanently ("Local Folders"), versus cached copies of online files ("synchronized"). It's not safe to regard your synchronized folders as permanent.
So, synchronized folders on an IMAP server are "mirrored" in Thunderbird so you do have a local (albeit temporary and transient) copy of messages; this is done mainly to avoid repeatedly downloading messages if you re-read them, and it makes searching faster an more efficient. But these "synchronized" message track what's being done on the server, and so if they are deleted anywhere, all synchronized devices will at some point also see the deleted messages vanishing. (Unless you made a local copy in the Local Folders account.)
I use a gmail account pretty much as you have described; I copy or move messages to that account so they are visible in my phone, my tablet, my own laptop and my works computer. It's free, and it's "in the cloud"; the only reservation I have is its privacy. There are other providers (e.g. 1&1/gmx) who don't seem to have the data collection fetish that google thrives on.
It's fairly simple to create filters in Thunderbird to automatically copy messages to your "cloud account"; even better is to set up forwarding rules on the other accounts' servers, so your messages are automatically sent on and waiting for you when you next login, already in the cloud account.

Setting up Mail for IMAP through Gmail

Hi,
To sync mail on my desktop, laptop, and iPad, I've set it up to link them through Gmail using IMAP. (I chose not to use iCloud because it won't let me use my own domain name for the e-mail address...and this is my business mail.) Everything works fine; the In-Box and the half dozen folders I have for different projects all appear on my Mac and on Gmail, and syn perfectly.
But....
I now have 2 "Sent" folders in Mail, which each behaves somewhat differently, and 3 Trash folders, which also behave somewhat differently.
SENT FOLDERS
One Sent folder is in the top level, under Mailboxes. It appears to be purely local to the computer, and stores messages in the normal fashion. The second one is in the Gmail folder below it, and syncs with gmail. In that folder, all messages are shown as addressed to me. In the account preferences, under Mailbox Behaviors, I tried checking the box to "Store sent messages on the server." But all that did was to flag the top level Sent folder with an error message saying: "The Sent mailbox could not be created on the mail server. The local “Sent Messages (Gmail)” mailbox was created instead."
Is there any way to fix this so that I have only one Sent folder (and no error flag)? I don't need 2 copies of every sent message.
TRASH FOLDERS
The situation is similar for Trash, except that I have 3 folders. A the top level, Trash has two sub-folders one labeled "On my Mac," the other labeled "Gmail." I have not checked the box to "store deleted messages on the server." The third trash folder is in the Gmail folder below. For now, all the deleted messages seem to go into the "On my Mac" folder. But it's odd to have the other two trash folders.
I would be grateful for any suggestions.
(By the way, none of this is a problem on my iPad, where Mail has just one Sent folder and one Trash folder, and they both function just as expected.)

About 45 minutes after posting my question, I found a web tutorial that addressed all these issues and explaind step-by-step how to fix them. The suggested settings worked perfectly and fixed all the issues.
I tried to delete my original posting here, but didn't see how to do that. So instead, here's the link to the tutorial ... in case anyone else is facing the same problems.

Setting backup on two different locations

Hello, people. I am a newbie DBA and at my work place , Using RMAN for my backup strategy I want to set up a backup to two different location ( e.g A:\backup and B:\backup), I have configure two channels, and also set configure device type disk parallelism 2, but I seem not to be getting the result i need.
What does configure device type disk parallelism actually do?
For me to proceed, what do i need to do? thank you.

RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 2;
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'D:\oracle\backup\data_%U', '\\atapp\data\olu\backup\data_%U';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'D:\ORACLE\ORACLE9I\DATABASE\SNCFTESTER.ORA'; # default
this is my configuration and it works fine, A copy of the backup are on both servers, the same size the and there is only copy of the archive log and controlfile on one of the servers which is fine

Setting backup on two different location

Hello, people. I am a newbie DBA and at my work place , Using RMAN for my backup strategy I want to set up a backup to two different location ( e.g A:\backup and B:\backup), I have configure two channels, and also set configure device type disk parallelism 2, but I seem not to be getting the result i need.
What does configure device type disk parallelism actually do?
For me to proceed, what do i need to do? thank you.

Question is, do you want A:\ & B:\ backup locations to by synchronized? If so, you'll need to use the COPIES parameter (could also copy the backupset once the backup is complete). Setting the PARALLELISM alone will not synchronize the two backup locations.
In your case, it would appear that you manually allocated multiple channels with a format specified, therefore RMAN produced the three pieces in A:\ and the one piece in B:\ .
What you'll experience with multiple copies AND multiple channels (parrlelism 2 for example) is that one channel will grab a group of files and begins backing up to the multiple locations while channel two grabs another group of files and begins backing up to the multiple locations at the same time.
Hope this helps.

How to set minimum size for the 'location' box in toolbars?

I reorganized my toolbars by merging the location and tabs bar. I have the location on the left hand side and the tabs *next* to it, like this:
[ (<)(>) [LOCATION] /tab\/tab\/tab\ ]
Unfortunately when the number of tabs increases, the location box becomes so small that I cannot even see the url of the site I'm in...
Is there a way to force a minimum width for the location box? I couldn't find a setting in about:config for it (I imagine that this would be a browser.urlbar setting)

You rock! The combination of fixed width tabs with the stylish Add-on, and the single line of script below just made my day!
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #TabsToolbar, #TabsToolbar > #urlbar-container { min-width: 350px; }
Many thanks!

Can you set alerts specific for different calendars so when you create an event, the alert for the event is already set?

On google calendar if you had a calendar for work and one for school, you can set alerts for earch so when you add a class or work related event, the event is set with alerts for that calendar. Can you do that with iCal?

Hi Steven,
This is one of the reasons why I wrote Dates to iCal.
As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries.
Best wishes

Trouble setting time zone for new location in networking

When I try to set a time zone for a new location it sets this as the time zone for all locations. I must be missing something. Any suggestions?
"Lily" my PowerBook G4 1.67GHz Mac OS X (10.4.2) 40GB iPod 3G

If you're doing this in the Date & Time PrefPane, then, IIRC, that's normal behavior. That controls the date and time settings for the computer. See Setting the date, time, and time zone description in Help.

Setting up Mail for Exchange with a Go3 key

I work at a company where in order to access the OWA login screen from the web, I have to first go through a webvpn login screen, which makes me generate a random number from a device on my keychain (Go3 key) to enter into the webvpn login screen. Then, I am taken to the OWA login screen where I can login using my normal network credentials.
Can Mail for Exchange on my Nokia E61 be set up with this type of access?

Sorry, I cannot think of a way of doing this.
I assume it is an SSL VPN gateway you use?
