TOTALLY seperate mail accounts possible??

Apple is proudly pronouncing that your e-mail accounts are unified within the same inbox. I don't want this! How can I avoid it?
I want to read my private e-mail and also my work e-mail, but I defintely do not in any way want those to to mix!
Inbox private, inbox job - isn't it possible?

It would be perfect to be able to just have an option to DISABLE the unified inboxes. I don't want to have to navigate to see my default mail account.
In addition, I sync with MS Exchange and use server side rules that move emails to different folders and as such I don't want to see my inbox as the default I want a different folder.
Please APPLE - don't impose features on us without the option to disable them. You don't know best, everyone has their own working practices, so please give us the option to configure the **** mail application to allow us to use the features we want and not use those we don't want.
surely it's a simple request - let your customers use the APP the way they want to and not the imposed/forced way YOU want us to.

There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that. You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
Unlikely. But nothing is impossible. Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

Is it possible to have different mail icons for different mail accounts?

I have several mail accounts configured in my iPhone 5s, and I want to see them separately and know when i have unread mails in each account, without having to enter in mail app.
Thanks

No, all unread email is consolidated under the single icon for the Mail Appl.
You could use several different mail apps (one for each account). This would show you the unread emails for each account with a seperate icon. Chech the App Store for many more email Apps.

TS3367 I have 3 apple systems.. Mac, Macpro, and IPad.. I have a seperate e-mail account set up of each but facetime is still acting like it is calling itself on the Mac.. do you have to have seperate appleID on each system?

You don't need 3 separate Apple IDs, but you do need to set up each device with a unique email address for Facetime to communicate between the devices. You can go to Settings > Facetime and add another email address for each device.

How it´s possible when I want to unlock my apple ID. Normely I get a mail, what I unlock, but I don´t get anyone on my e-Mail-account.

How it´s possible to unlock my apple ID. Unfortunately I don´t get any mails from apple on my e-Mail-account to unlock.
Is there another way to unlock?

Hi Schimmer,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your Apple ID may be disabled, or you need to reset the password. You may find this article helpful with resetting your password and security questions, if necessary:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
However, if you're not able to receive email to your rescue email address, you may need to contact iTunes Store Support:
You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.

How to delete a windows 8.1 mail account when 'attention is required' = no sign in possible

my account settings have been changed by the service provider and I can not sign into the mail account via the mail app. without signing in a delete of the mail account in windows 8.1 is impossible and so far adding the new account with the
same4 name does not work

If that be the case then you must contact your service provider and explain him the situation so that he can make necessary changes in the said account settings to restore mail account.

Is it possible to sync contacts between different e-mail accounts?

My Apple ID is based on my personal address (to keep my accountant happy).
I'd like the contacts and calendar on my work laptop (w/ a differnet, work e-mail address) to be able to sync with my iPhone and iPad that are set up with my Apple ID.
I have iCloud set up.
My e-mail client is OUTLOOK 2013 and the e-mail account is POP.
My OS is WIN 8.1.
Or, am I dreaming...
Thanks!

randers4,
THANKS! But, I'm not using EXCHANGE. My web site and e-mail are hosted on Google-based servers using POP3.
Thanks!

If you don't want them reading your email, yes.

A send-only e-mail account on iPhone. Is that possible?

I have two accounts on my iPhone: Gmail and work (via VPN).
The Gmail account is managed via 3rd party app (Gmail app).
But the system won't let me send e-mails such as photos from the Camera Roll via this 3rd app automatically, so I have it on the Mail app also.
So every time that I have to check or reply my work's e-mails I enable VPN, launch Mail app, wait for the system to timeout checking the Gmail account (because the VPN won't let it reach the Gmail server), and then it checks the work account successfully. And that takes a long time (and uses cell data).
Can I prevent the Mail app to check every account that I have added to it? Or putting in another words, can I have a send-only e-mail account on the Mail app on iPhone?
Sorry, English is not my native language.
Thank you,
Rafael

I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, but I would try setting up an e-mail account without an Incoming Mail Server set.
As long as you have your outgoing mail server details it will send e-mail.
If it doesn't allow you, maybe set up a dummy e-mail address that you don't use and enter the Incoming Mail server details for that one instead
So the two options are:
Outgoing Server (Gmail)
Incoming Server (blank)
or
Outgoing server (Gmail)
Incoming server (Gmail 2)

Help with multiple Mail accounts

There are two user accounts on my computer. I am the administrator and recently set-up a .Mac email-only account for the secondary user.
Now, in the Mail application, I am receiving the mail for both myself AND the secondary user in my box. How do I set up the Mail for account #2 so it is totally seperate from my own?
Thanks.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Is this email only account (not an alias account)
available in the Mail application as a separate
account under your admin login account?
Yes, I believe so. When I'm logged in as admin, I can see both accounts in preferences. Is that what you mean?
Since an email only account is created as a separate
email account in Mail, I don't know how you would be
receiving messages addressed to the email only
account unless you also created the account in Mail
under your login account.
That's likely what happened. How can I fix? Should I delete the second account created under my admin login and re-create it somewhere else?

Apple Mail account suddenly offline, smtp offline

iMac 27" (late 2009) updated to Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10 and Apple Mail 8.0 (1990.1) 17th October 2014.
Mail accounts in Apple Mail where working as years before until Yesterday, 3th November 2014. Suddenly 2 out of 3 accounts where offline showing the warning triangle icon on the right. Command "go online" and "syncronize" has no effect. Activity in Mail is showing no try to connect. Looking into the account config I see that the SMTP are "offline".
I checked everything and compared to the settings of the one account which is still normal working. Everything is identically set up. Only differences are the domain names, username and pwd. The domain names are on the same external virtual hosts and have same configs. The on the iMac faulty accounts are working on iPad and iPhone like ever and from the same internal network. My hardware firewall or the external mailserver can not be the reason.
I deleted 1) SMTP config, 2) whole mail account, 3) all corresponding keys in keychain and was setting up from new. No chance, they show SMTP offline and do not go online in IMAP. Next was trying to give account #1 the SMTP from the working #3. The SMTP #3 shows fine but near the inbox of account #1 i have again the warning triangle. No go online, no sync, no action in the activity window.
I go setting up Mail with these accounts in a new user. Mail was totally empty as I started config of two accounts. After doing all they where at the same point. No connection possible.
Why is this happend suddenly and after more than 2 weeks after Yosmite update? Why is one account working, two others not anymore?

Sorry, just found the details. Here we go:

Non-Verizon e-mail account

Does anyone know if I can keep my non-Verizon e-mail accounts when I get a FIOS connection? The reason I ask is I previously had a Verizon DSL account and I could not use my e-mail account with a seperate ISP. Is this scenario possible with a FIOS Internet account?

On residential accounts Verizon blocks port 25 on all but their SMTP server, on the Verizon network. You would need to route your mail through outgoing.verizon.net. It is the only way to send residential outbound mail, unless you use a webmail account. I have been using Outlook Connector with MAPI connecting to my msn account, but suspect it would work with other web based email accounts.
I have seen this stated many times, but I have had no trouble sending emails using an sbcgobal server for the last two years while using my FiOS connection. I have AT&T DSL service at a lake house and I have that account defined in my Outlook Express with the SMTP server specified as smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com, using Port 25. I don't use that account for sending very often when I am on FiOS, but I just did another test and and the email went just fine (I sent it to one of my Verizon email accounts and received it just fine, and looking at the source of the email it clearly shows it came from the AT&T server). I also do the reverse, send from my FiOS email account using OE while connected via AT&T (I did have trouble in the beginning because they were blocking Port 25, but a short phone call to their tech support fixed that problem).
I don't know whether Verizon only blocks port 25 in certain areas of the country, or perhaps have removed the block completely, but it most certainly works ok for me.
