Taking contents in new incoming mail & creating new outgoing mail

im having 2 problems while trying to create an automator workflow.
1. take attachment from a new incoming mail message and pass it along to a new outgoing mail message.

2. take a piece of information from the incoming mail message and paste it into the (to:) section of the new outgoing mail message (each outgoing mail will have a different TO: based on the information they send me)
this is what i mean.
if within the email i get:
fax number: 5055555555
then i would like to take that information and have it sent to:
[email protected]

HT5361 I am unable to start or select the MAIL app. No incoming mail and no outgoing mail. I do not even know how to get an answer without email. Can you help?

I am unable to start or select the MAIL app. No incoming mail and no outgoing mail. I do not even know how to get an answer without email. Can you help?

Thank you Carolyn, How helpless you can feel without this App!
Going into the App Store as you suggest, I see 'thee updates available", the first says, 'X RESTART', the second says, 'Garage Band, an error has occurred" (in red), and the third 'Memory Clean, UPDATE'.
Am I correct in thinking that OSX is the problem, because it is waiting for a restart?
Kind regards,
Cy

In mail "create new ical event" has stopped appearing in ical

Please help! I love clicking on data in email to bring up the "Create New iCal Event" box, and using it to put new events into my ical calendar. But recently when I "Create New iCal Event" from an email, and click "add to iCal" the window closes but the event doesn't show up in iCal. I can still add events by clicking on a calendar date in iCal and typing them in, but the link between Mail and iCal seems to be broken. How can I fix it?
Could this be related to how Firefox recently broke? Foxfire will not save bookmarks any more, either, I click on "Bookmarks," then "Bookmark this page". The window closes but the bookmark does not save. Also, the forward/backward browser arrows no longer work on Foxfire.

Could you be more specific? What happens (or fails to happen?)

Yosemite update has Mail creating new mailboxes

Anyone else have this problem? Since updating my new iMac to Yosemite, I have had a peculiar problem with Mail. Instead of pulling everything over intact (as Mavericks did when it updated), it pulled my Yahoo mail over, then created a second copy using my e-mail address as the mailbox name. Now, after signing in to my AOL account remotely, it just created a new AOL mailbox. I can't delete either of the redundant mailboxes, and this means my mail now comes in multiples of 2 for each mailbox, and the outgoing mail has slowed down. I have updated to 10.10.1, but this started before the update and continues.
I won't even get into the part where Safari has started crashing, won't work with Squarespace, and the WiFi connect has begn having problems since I updated (it was fine before)...
I don't expect this kind of sloppiness from Apple.

No, but I'll bet they do over in the Leopard forum. This one is Panther or earlier. We don't have travel.mboxes
Good luck!

HT201320 lost original message - how do I set up Windows mail on my new ipad to create new email messages?

Lost original message. How do I set up Windows email on my new ipad so that I can create new emails?

I responded to the question that you can't seem to find. You have to use whatever email provider that you have .... Yahoo, Gmail, whoever you have,
Did you try adding your email account to the iPad in Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Add Account?
This may be helpful.

After you add your email account you can send and receive emails in the iPad Mail App.

Trying to add my thunderbird work email account to my new iphone, how do I find my "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" host names?

Got a new Iphone 6 and I need to add my work thunderbird email account onto the phone. It is asking me for the host name of my incoming and outgoing mail server and I have no idea what this means- please help!

First off there is no such thing as a Thunderbird email account. Email providers issue email accounts and Thunderbird is email client software and not a provider.
You can look at the server settings in Thunderbird to see the settings it is using or you could get a list from your provider.
In Thunderbird go to the menu bar and select Tools-Account Settings-Server Settings to see the Inbound settings and Tools-Server Settings-Outbging Server(SMTP) for Outbound settings.
No menu bar with Tools showing? Press the alt key.

Transfer assets collectively to new class and create new assets like ABUMN

We need to change the account determination for a few Asset Classes that already have assets with postings. As a result we must create new asset classes and assign a new account determination.
Is there a program that would allow transfer assets collectively to a new asset class and create new assets automatically similar to ABUMN? T-code ABUMN allows you to transfer multiple assets but you must create the new assets first. ABUMN will transfer and create new asset but only does one asset at a time.
There are hundreds of assets with postings to be transferred from the old asset classes to the corresponding new asset classes.
Appreciate whatever input you can provide.
Tara

download the asset master data(original) and create new asstes using lsmw or any third party tool also.

How can the incoming mail section on an iphone5 disappear? I can send messages but cannot receive them. Shouldn't there be an incoming section like the outgoing mail server section?

I Haven't received incoming email for nearly a week now. I have checked the settings and the only thing that isn't there is the INCOMING MAIL SERVER section. The outgoing mail server is there and is correct. How can I get it back so that I can enter the mail server?

Hi Olivier,
Thanks very much for that. it worked on my powerbook(running Tiger). I went to the link and followed the instructions and it worked. Did i mention that my dad who has a iMac running Leopard now has the same problem. I thought i would just do the same but the Preference in Mail for Leopard is of course different. There is no icon called "Server Settings" under Accounts section like there is on mine. Do you have a link for the same kind of instructions for Leopard?
Thanks again,
Bryce

Mail wont send outgoing mail

Incoming mail is fine, but outgoing mail has error message :
Connections to the server “smtp.live.com” on the default ports timed out.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
IS ANYBODY ABLE TO HELP??
Many Thanks

It's possible that your outgoing server use a different port than the default - I know that with Gmail, I have to use port 465 and with my iCloud mail I have to use port 587.
There should be a setup page with your email account that gives you the port to use and whether or not SSL is required and if the outgoing server needs to be verified with your account name and password.

Mail trouble with outgoing mail server

For weeks now (relatively recent), MAC mail will not send consistantly. When I choose my outgoing mail server in the preferences panel and check "use only this server", Mail often will not send my message. If I leave that outgoing server as "none", my first outgoing message of the day will prompt me to choose one, and then subsequent messages are sent without asking. Inconvenient at the least - something's not right.
Any help?

Thanks for response.
I have deleted ALL accounts (to start fresh) but the unused outgoing servers 'refuse' to leave
I want to delete them to keep things tidy, also I have issues with using alternate outgoing server (next issue), so trying to start from the beginning again, before attempting to address next issue.

Apple Mail switching my outgoing mail from receipt e-mail to another e-mail within my accounts

Hi ~
My Apple Mail account keeps switching outgoing mail accounts on me, nilly-willy. If a mail comes in under a particular address, i.e. [email protected] it will send a return e-mail from another address within my accounts, i.e. [email protected], EVEN if a) the account shown in the FROM line is the original [email protected]; and 2) my signature for that particular account shows in the e-mail. It seems to happen only with the 5 G-mail accounts synched into the mail program, and not with a business address with a different server.
Any suggestions to fix this particularly pesky problem?

I have something similar. I have 4 email accounts one being Gmail. No matter what account receives the email the replay is automatically directed to the Gmail account. There have been some discussions out there about problems with Gmail accounts. This may be connected to problems.

Mail cannot find outgoing mail server on imac

I have had a standard pop/smpt work email set up on my old laptop with windows XP for a while - all working fine. I recently bought an iMac and although on the same network iMail doesn't recognize the smpt outgoing server.. It doesn't even make it to choosing ports as it says the smpt server is not responding. If I continue I can receive mails, but not send...
I am quite illiterate when it comes to computers, so can someone please help me with this in simple terms?

At the risk of repeating what you already know, I'll try to describe how to declare an SMTP server. This advice assumes that you know what settings you need to use for your SMTP server.
In Mail, pull down the Mail menu and select "Preferences..." Click on "Accounts" at the top. In the left column click on the account that you're using. Be sure that the "Account Information" tab is active. At the bottom of the panel should be an item labeled "Outfoing Mail Server (SMTP):" You should see your SMTP server there. To check its settings, pull down the SMTP server list and select "Edit Server List..." In the resulting panel select your SMTP server. Click on the "Advanced" tab. Apply the settings needed for your SMTP server. Click on "OK", then close the "Preferences" window.

Mac mail/creating new format style

Hi all,
I sometimes send emails with a good amount of copy ( I have my compose preference set to RTF). I notice that the default format style for macmail is Left aligned, Spacing 1.0x. (no leading or 'set solid'). I'd like to create a new 'favorite style' that includes the basic type 'Geneva' and flush left alignment but with more leading, maybe '2.0' so that the copy is more readable. I go to the menu Format-->Style-->Styles. A styles info box comes up:
Can anyone tell me how to create a new format style with greater leading than the
default style then add it to favorites? Will a person who receives my email who is using a different email client necessarily receive the formatting I am sending?
I hope I'm not missing something obvious. lol.
Also, if anyone knows the html code that would center my image in this email, please pass that along as well. I tried the <center> tags but they didn't work.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Regards,
Dennis

Replying to myself to add some more information, and ask some additional questions:
Poking around, I have found some information -- a few years old, unfortunately -- that seems to indicate that you cannot create aliases to associate with a mac.com account. What I may have to do is add an address in the primary account, in the Email Address field of the Account Information tab, where she currently has this:
[email protected], [email protected]
If that works, that'll be great, but one flaw in this method is that you can't specify a different sender name. Her customers at "herdomain.com" will still just see her name, Jane Doe, when what she really wants in the sender field for that e-mail address is "Jane Doe, Director, Her Domain Inc."
Can anyone verify if I am finally understanding this correctly? Or if there is something else I can do to get her that alternate identity on her mac.com account?
Thanks.

10.5.3 Mail Creates New Message on Account Activation -Totally Bizarre

Hi there - this is a weird one.
I recently added a new pop account that had some ssl connection issues, but otherwise seemed fine. The account frequently goes offline during the day and whenever I take it back online, Mail grabs the last received email from any account, and places its contents into an email from one of my addresses to the same address.
It's worth noting that Mail has been behaving slowly and crashing a lot since the 10.5.3 update. Is anyone else seeing the same bug, or have any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks Barry. I agree - corrupted preferences can be sources of strange behavior.
It's been recommended to me that the combo updater should be applied before trying to rebuild the accounts and such as I'll have to if I scrap the preferences. I'll post the results here after I do so.

Mac Mail - Create New Mailbox Shortcut?

Hi everyone,
Can you help? - I'd really like to be able to create a new mailbox using a keyboard shortcut, instead of navigating the menus.
What's the best way for me to do this?
Thank you.
Graham

Hi, dibleyg. Welcome to the forums!
Have you tried using the "+" button at the bottom-left corner of the Mail window?
