To Do + iCal + Mail.app on IMAP Idea

I've been looking into a good To Do app for my iPhone for a while, since Apple seems to have completely overlooked this functionality.
So the way it looks, if you're using IMAP, these To Dos show up in full in a folder at the root of the IMAP account called "Apple Mail To Do."
Hawkz already has a Web App called Shkeet that can view these To Dos on a web interface. I'm wondering if any developers are working on an actual App that can store login information and give me quick access to this IMAP folder on my mail account, and let me edit these To Dos? Seems like a simple and fully effective solution to me.
Thanks,
Cody

No, sorry.
I've already tried that.

  • Multiple gmail accounts in mail.app via IMAP - how to delete messages

    multiple gmail accounts in mail.app via IMAP - how to delete messages so that they are not stored on gmail and not in All Mail therefore either.
    i know that dragging messages to the GMail.Trash folder deletes it in Gmail, but doing that for multiple accounts is a hassle!
    anybody else struggle with this, solved it?

    i have still not figured out a solution to this. very painful - the fact that messages iwill not be using ever again and with large attachments, just sit there in all mails and slow down mail.app for me, fill up search results with stuff i don't want to see and fill up space on the HDD. the attachments as a result often are stored 3-4 times on the HDD!
    some geek here must have solved it - come on!

  • Backup Gmail using Mail.app and IMAP

    I would like to backup my Gmail emails using Apple Mail. I have IMAP turned on in Gmail. I know I need to add the account in Mail but I'm not sure what to do after that. I'm thinking I need to create a local mail folder in order to store the emails.
    Also, how could I automate this? Is Mail the best option for this scenario? Again, I'm only wanting this as a backup for Gmail.

    How about avoiding redundancy (http://superuser.com/questions/114253/backup-gmail-using-mail-app-and-imap-witho ut-redundancy)?
    I got this all working, there's even this literally great guide on my superuser post (http://db.tidbits.com/article/10253) but IMAP generates a lot of repeated files due to gmail labels nature.
    Anyone knows a way to circle around this and still be able to use IMAP and labels with mail.app and gmail?

  • Mail.app + Gmail IMAP, stop auto mark as read

    I just switched over to IMAP on my Gmail account and I got everything working fine, except one thing:
    I've applied rules in Mail.app so they sort into their corresponding folders on the server (or Labels, in Gmail terms). For some reason because of this, certain messages are automatically marked as read.
    This doesn't happen to messages that aren't sorted (ie, they stay in the Inbox > Gmail). The strange thing is, this only happens to certain messages that are sorted.
    Anybody have any idea?

    Resolved.

  • Mail.app keeping IMAP connections alive and active

    Hi all,
    I was having some issues with the MySQL databases on my website, so I gave my hosting provider a call.
    It seems that Mail.app is opening up an IMAP process for each of my 24 e-mail accounds, and keeping it alive for as long as Mail is running. According to the representative I spoke with, e-mail clients, even with IMAP should start a process, synchronize the mail, and close the process, and all of this should happen in around 0.2 seconds.
    The problem is that there is a cap of 20 processes on my hosting server, so Mail's behavior is basically causing lots of problems - as long as mail is open and all of my accounts are enabled, my website can't access my MySQL databases.
    Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? I used to have "Automatically synchronize mailboxes checked" and tried unchecking this for troubleshooting purposes, but the same thing still happens.
    Any ideas or suggestions will be very appreciated.
    Thanks!

    From what I've read, imap is designed to create a persistent connection, and keep it open until you quit the program.
    But there's another problem which might be getting in your way: mail.app does indeed create persistent connections, but then rather than re-using them, it seems to open another new persistent connection each time it checks the mail. So the processes never close, and they start to pile up as new ones are added.
    What's more, mail opens multiple connections per account. Looks like it opens 4 connections to check each separate account, and those all get left open until you quit the program.
    The reason they do this is, so they say, "performance". More connections = faster mail. But it's a real headache when it doesn't close old processes before opening new ones.
    Also an option to limit the number of connections made per account would be welcome.
    Thunderbird does exactly the same thing, by the way.

  • Problems sorting messages? (Mail.app, Lion, IMAP)

    I'm wondering if (how?) I'm the only person with this problem...
    I generally run with a window just open to my Inbox(-es).  That window is 2-columns, message list and message contents.  The hidden "Mailboxes" pane has several accounts under Inbox, most/all of which are IMAP servers.
    Here's the problem: The column heading for the list of messages reads "Sort by date".  However, the message list isn't sorted by date at all.  It appears that "Date" may be "date received", but I can't be certain of this.  In previous versions of Mail.app, there was a distinction between sorting by date of the message or the date received; in general I prefer the former.  But that doesn't seem to account for this:
    The options for this are Sorted by: Date, Ascending. 
    The interesting aspect of this is that if I choose one particular Inbox (i.e., the inbox from any account, rather than the "consolidated" listing), messages are sorted properly.  It's only when I have the view of all the inboxes (that is, the "Inbox" itself is selected, rather than any of the accounts under it) that sorting goes awry. 
    I do have lots of rules defined, moving certain messages from one place to another, and applying colors.  But this hadn't previously (nor would I expect it to) cause this issue. 
    Does anyone else have this problem, or any ideas on how to fix it?

    Apparently, I was either the only person to have an issue with this, or the only one bothered enough to write to the group!
    I do have a solution, however.
    From what I was able to tell, the issue was that the menu items for sorting, including the "Sort by" in the Mail window header bar and the View -> Sort by menu simply displayed "Date" as the option.
    Recalling the old trick of using the Option key while selecting a menu item, "Date" changed to "Date Sent".  It has not changed back to "Date"; now holding down Option changes it "Date Received", and the menu item continues to read "Date Sent", which is the desired behavior.
    Unfortunately, Mail was stuck in a state where both these indications simply said "Date"; I've now apparently changed this and the indicator reads properly (and the sort order is as expected).
    I hope if this bugs anyone else this explanation (?) will help.

  • IPhone, calender, iCal, mail.app: probem inviting people to meeting

    Hi everyone,
    last night I downloaded the 3.0 Version. Everything runs fine but...
    I tried the new feature to invite people to appointments in calender. On the first sight everything works fine. But then there where Problems.
    My colleague received my invitation on his iPhone but the iPhone could not open the "winmail.dat".
    We then tried it using mail.app, where the "winmail.dat" was visible. The content of the "winmail.dat" could not be opened. Therefore iCal.app could also not handle the invitation.
    This feature is very important to me and surely to many others.
    Could anybody tell me what went wrong?
    kind regards, Uwe

    Ah! after talking to different people we found out that this might be the support for Exchange 2007 from Microsoft.
    What I have to tell is that we are using Zarafa as a replacement for Exchange.
    Probably this will be tha cause for the missing functionality.
    As far as we know the colleagues from Zarafa are working hard to update their Software.
    Still waiting for a solution,
    regards, Uwe

  • My email account in Mail.app is IMAP, but when I delete emails, they don't delete from other devices connected to the mail server with IMAP. Deleted mail on other devices delete as normal from the server and thus from other devices as normal.

    MacBook Pro, late 2011 version. Up to date Mountain Lion.
    My email account in the Mail.app is set up as IMAP, but when I delete emails in the Mac Mail App, they are not deleted from the mail clients of the other devices that are connected to the mail server with IMAP. IMAP works perfectly between Windows Outlook 2010, iPad Mail App and Android default mail client. Deleted messages behave correctly, as in delete from one device and the mail is deleted from all devices.
    Having just tested in reverse order on the Mac; emails deleted from the email client on Windows, iPad and Android are not deleted in the Mac Mail App.  It appears that the account is behaving like POP rather than IMAP.
    Any advice on how to have IMAP work correctly on the MacBook Pro Mail.app?
    Thank you.

    Hi Csound1, thanks. The email host is 1and1.co.uk, however, i am going to fess up and make myself look like a plonker now -
    the email account in question was set up in Outlook as POP - stupid, stupid, stupid me, wasted an afternoon on this!  I have now changed the Outlook account to IMAP and Mail.app works perfectly - and looks much nicer than Outlook did.  Im in the middle of converting from Windows to a Mac, and still finding my way around the Mac
    The lesson learned, never assume - always double  check!  All my other email addresses with 1and1 are all imap, except this one, and it happened to be the first one I set up in the Mail.app. (bows head in disgrace!)
    Thank you anyway for attempting to help me!
    Cheers

  • Mail.app downloads IMAP data repeatedly

    I user mail.app on three different computers. My main desktop is an iMac. My main travel computer is a MBP. Both of these systems are running SL 10.6.5 (actually 10.6.6 as of today). Mail.app is configured to access my work email via exchange, and my personal email through IMAP. For archiving purposes I use mail-act-on to archive my read email from exchange to IMAP (not sure this matters, but throwing it out there). The problem is that if I happen to leave mail.app running on one computer while using mail.app on the other, they both get confused and re-download all of my archived IMAP email.
    I have 23GB of email on my IMAP server. Over time, I've had the local copy of my email on both computers grow to over >160GB. The crazy thing is that, although the mail has been downloaded multiple times, the messages only appear once mail.app. I have to fix this by deleting the IMAP account, recreating is and re-downloading all of my email. As long as I don't forget to shut down mail.app on the inactive computer, I don't have this problem. However, any time I accidentally leave it running on multiple's the problem re-appears. This behavior has been seen by a friend of mine that uses mail.app in a similar fashion.
    Has anyone seen this? Any way to fix this?

    Looking into the Diagnostics and Usage Reports in 'Settings' -> 'General' -> 'About' I see nine different "ExcResource_MobileMail_DATE" reports. Looking at the report I see a SysInfoCrashReport that indicates that the CPU was pegged at over 50% (mostly over 75%) for over 180 seconds using the MobileMail app.
    I also see a "MobileMail_DATE" report that indicates that there was an 'Exception raised during monitored invocation of _loadMoreMessagesWithMaxVisibleIndexPath:maximumIndexPathsBySource:, exception: ** -[__NSArrayM objectAtIndex:]: index 4294967295 beyond bounds for empty array"
    And finally I see three "stacks+MobileMail-DATE" reports with "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.message.fetchMobileSynchronously...' Simply resetting it now." and "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.mobilemail.messagebodyloader' Simply resetting it now" reports.
    I updated to iOS 7.0.4 and decided to try and delete the account in my Mail settings and recreate it and set it to manual instead of the non-working fetch. Now, when I try to check my mail it still takes up to five minutes to respond, pulling the screen to refresh brings up the spinner for about one second and then disappears and no indications of activity occur until about three minutes later when I see the spinner in the status bar near the clock and then see a notification that it's downloading X of Y messages. At that point, message headers come in very quick and then about a minute later message previews come in. At random times, opening the mail app I get a "Password incorrect" error, even though the password works on other attempts.

  • Mail.app and IMAP does not change message in server

    Hello all...
    I'm having a strange problem with Mail.app.. I have a IMAP server that uses pine-imapd. I can login and read messages, but anything I do with the messages to not change the message status on the server... If I read a new message, it remains NEW on server, if I delete, it DO NOT delete form server, and so on.. There are cases that I keep receiving the same message over and over again, but actually there's only one message on the server... I used to use Linux with Evolution and everything works just fine, but with Mail.app on Leopard, I have this issue.. Anyone experienced the same thing and have solved it?
    THanks
    Carlos Barros

    Hello Neithan.
    Assuming Preferences > Mailbox Behaviors > Move deleted messages to the Trash is ON, does having Store deleted messages on the server ON or OFF make a difference?
    Does the problem persist if you take the account offline, then back online (e.g. by means of Mailbox > Go Offline/Online)?
    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    To make accurately reporting that information easier, open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
    ls -1 /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • BCC will not show recipients in Mail app - for IMAP client user

    Our office iMac was just upgraded to Mavericks.  The Apple mail app (which we use via IMAP to receive our gmail) will not show BCC recipients on sent mail.  Not sure what other info you might need.
    Yes it did work prior to Mavericks upgrade --lots of other quirks that are just user preference issues but this is by far a concern because we need to keep track of school sent emails.  So far the only solution has been to use the gmail client via web interface -- hoping there is a different solution!
    Thanks for any help

    John -- Thank you for your reply. 
    When we send the email we (our user end) can see the recipients in the BCC field (good)
    When the email is delivered they (the recipient) cannot see all the other emails (good)
    "Susie" (who was on our original BCC list as a recipient) calls and says I did not get the email - We go to our sent folder and click on the sent email to verify the email address we used but (and here's the issue) it says "No recipients"
    Prior to installing OSX Mavericks -- it listed ALL the recipients in our sent folder copy of the email (this was very helpful to us)
    To date the ONLY solution has been to use the web version of gmail -- My question is (and please know I have done a number of checks on this process) Why did it work BEFORE upgrading to Mavericks and why does it not work NOW?  Our school secretary is convinced it is "my fault" for upgrading the system -- I am convinced there is a user error since she NEVER lists anyone in the TO field
    She will NOT use the web interface because it takes "too much time" -- for this my response is -- then fix it yourself! (Sorry 10 days left of school -- tech coordinator frustration creeping in -- tired of id10t erros -- should have waited to upgrade until no one was around and NOT tell them!)

  • Lots of disk activity in mail.app with IMAP

    Hi -- just switched to IMAP and then uploaded about 3k email messages to each of two IMAP accounts. I am also using HTTPmail. It's insane how much disk activity mail.app takes up. My disk seems like it's always being read to or written from. It's making a ton of noise all the time. When I quit mail.app, the noises stop. Is there a way to make it stop doing all these reads/writes? It cant' be good for the disk and it slows down my computer.
    Thanks!
    Nathan

    Let it run. Chances are, IMAP will simmer down after it does all its processing. If this continues, it might be the result of you simply having a lot of new email. Try disabling the auto synchronization feature if it really bothers you.

  • Mail App and IMAP sync issues

    I am facing IMAP sync issues with Mail App ver 4.4. I have specified the automatic fetch interval as 1 minute. The problem is the App does not seem to send requests to the server to sync the Inbox folder alone, but it send requests to get STATUS and sync the other folders.
    Has anyone else faced similar issues.
    Radha

    Not many of us would set the interval to be only 1 minute -- too often for the speed of many connections. Have you tried 5 minutes to see if the behavior continues?

  • Mail.app - Gmail - IMAP - alias send from

    I recently upgraded my OS and switched from POP to IMAP. Now I am no longer able to send an email through Mail.app for a imap gmail account FROM an alias.
    [email protected] IMAP
    me@domain - forwards to [email protected]
    I want to be able to send from me@domain
    I used to be able to do this with POP on a previous OS, now I don't know if it is the OS or mail protocol change that is preventing this, but all my emails show up as me@gmail even when I select a custom 'from' in mail.app
    Thanks!

    As jeremyScout replied, I don't think it's a matter of settings on gmail. I already send emails using an alias on gmail but on my ipad 4th gen I can't send them using the alias and I didn't found a solution yet.

  • Mail.app + Google IMAP. Locally stored messages being dropped.

    I have an IMAP account setup under mail.app to sync with a gmail account, its was all working fine for a few months until a few weeks ago when I noticed that messages were missing from mail.app. I checked time machine and noticed that at some point my local storage of emails had dropped from ~5Gb to 300mb. All messages remained present under gmail.
    This is very annoying because Mail.app obviously figures out the discrepancy at some point and begins trying to cache the Gb's of messages that are missing, and this blows my tiny, expensive, Australian download quota.
    I've now just noticed that the same thing has happened again - I have been able to use Time Machine to retrieve the 5Gb worth of messages, however I'm not sure if I can just dump this back into the library>mail folder and hope that everything syncs back up without having to download the lot again.
    Anyone know how I might figure out what is causing the local messages to be deleted? And how I might safely move the 5Gb of local messages back allowing me to save some quote for the month?

    Same problem here today! Not good at all, i checked the settings of the account and even if i told mail to keep a local copy, all the messages disappeared.
    The thing doesn't affect the iphone mail luckily so i think that is a mail bug somewhere...
