Transfer Mail & Settings for new disk

I'm about to upgrade the current drive in my laptop to something bigger, so I wanted to check what is the simplest way to back up my mail + settings in order to restore them on the new drive. Can I just rely on TimeMachine or should I just copy ~/Libraby/Mail to an external drive and then back again onto the new drive?
TIA
Mike

You'll also want ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist if you want to keep your settings.

  • How to transfer mail & settings to new computer?

    I'd like to transfer my mail accounts and mailboxes over to a new computer, without using the Migration Assistant. Is this possible?

    If you can mount the other computer as an AFP share on your desktop (in Finder's menu bar, choose Go then Connect to server or choose Go then Network), then launch Mail, there is an "import mailboxes" function under File in Mail's menubar. You'll be prompted to identify the type of previous Mail client, and you'll need to navigate your way to the mailboxes' locations on the mounted volume of the old computer.
    I'd be careful about copying files and such from one computer to the other if one is Tiger and the other is Leopard. I don't know if everything is stored in the same format from one OS to the next or not. If they're both the same OS, you would be ok doing what Kappy has suggested below.

  • The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.

    Hi,
    I have SP 2013, and it was working properly. and workflows send emails perfectly. yesterday, i decided to build a fresh site collection so i deleted the old one and created a new one. now, workflows are unable to send emails. i'm sure it has nothing to do
    with my mail server cuz no changes happened to it. i'm sure about the settings for outgoing mail on central admin. all i did, was to enter mail server IP in outgoing mail field and email below it.
    in the workflow status the status says "error" followed by this message: "The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly."
    Any help please?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to send email after building a fresh site collection.
    I recommend to verify that you have entered your SMTP server name correctly.
    You can add it as FQDN e.g. ServerName.DomainName.

  • The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly

    I have a 2 server SharePoint farm.
    All outgoing emails were working fine.
    I just restarted both servers and now after that none of the emails are being sent. I am using OOB publishing workflow and it shows message:
    The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
    Even if I setup Alert on some list, it doesn't send email.
    I have checked that outgoing email setting in CA is defined and like I said it was working fine without problems but after restart it is showing error.
    What could be the cause of this and how to fix it?
    EDIT
    I removed outgoing mail server in CA, added again and restart IIS but still emails from OOB workflow is not being sent. But email from Alerts are being sent. Don't know what to do now.

    This is really weird, It works when an alert is set but workflows doesn't send emails... Can you create a simple 1 Step workflow in SPD to send an email when a specific field is set. See if this sends an email..
    AJ MCTS: SP 2010 Configuration MCSA: Windows 7 If you find this post useful kindly please mark it as an answer :) TY
    I created a test workflow which sends email to user and it is also not sending email. But I am getting email from SharePoint regarding "variation" page changes as well as alerts which I told above.

  • I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

    I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have checked all mail settings for ID and password.

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
    Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems

  • Jumper Settings for new Hard Disks in RAID

    How do i have to jumper new disks which should be added to my RAID. In factory settings they come with the cable select setting. Do i have to set all the jumpers to master or does cable select work too?

    I know that setting the drive to slave didn't work when I tried it just for curiosity's sake.
    It may vary by drive vendor whether you use 'cable select' or 'master.' My xserve raid's a little busy right now so don't want to pull my drives out to look but I'm think that half my drives are set to 'cable select' (maxtor 250GB drives in my left bank) and the other half (hotachi 500GB drives in the right bank) are set to 'master.'
    You'll know pretty quickly if it works or not: when you put the drive carrier into the chassis, the drive carrier's status LED (not the blue activity light but the tri-color LED adjacent to it) red light will either turn to green or not. If it turns green, the system has recognized the drive as a valid candidate, if the LED remains red it has determined the drive is not.
    You can also click on the individual drive in RAID Admin to determine individual drive status.
    FYI, I use RAID Admin 1.5 w/1.5 firmware, have SFP controllers, dual 512k cache, dual cache batteries

  • HT3309 Share mail settings with new user account on the same mac?

    I have had to set-up a new user account on my mbp to use a new piece of software which refused to work on the main user account. I want to transfer the mail settings from the original one simply so that mail opens in an identical way whichever account I'm siging in with.

    Oops.
    If you just need Mail settings, only copy
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    All the messages are in
    ~/Library/Mail

  • Mac Mail: Check for new messages doesn't work

    Hi,
    In Mac Mail the setting at  "Preferences -> Check For New Messages" I have set for manual and yet Mail still fetches emails when I haven't asked it too. I previously had this setting set to check for messages every hour but it ignored that setting too so I set it to manual but this setting is ignored. Ideally I'd like to check mail every four hours but there isn't a setting for that.
    I'm running Lion and have IMAP email accounts.
    Any idea how I can get Mac Mail not to ignore my Check For New Messages setting?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the link. Well I never would have found that out without some help. I saw the IDLE in the IMAP settings I didn't know it was a kind of PUSH / FETCH thing. Anyway I've got it on manual now and only seems to get emails when I send one or press the button. I've only changed it a little while ago so I hope this is actually fixed.
    Thanks again it was driving me nuts!

  • Mail settings for iCloud, etc

    I'm using 10.6.8.
    I see two kbases for setting up Apple Mail to work with iCloud email.
    But, one says it's specifically for 10.6. The other is for other email apps, using IMAP setup.
    But, wouldn't the IMAP settings in the second work for 10.6 as well?
    10.6
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5330
    other apps
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    I gues I'm trying to figure out why they are different since iCloud is an IMAP account, but both articles have different settings for that

    it would seem one of those kbases made sure to mention option-click in the process to allow edits in the IMAP setup.
    So, in the 10.6 info:
    mail.me.com
    user name (excluding @me.com)
    smtp.me.com
    But, in the iCloud server setting for email clients:
    imap.mail.me.com
    user name=[email protected]
    smtp.mail.me.com
    It seems user name under each is different in that one wants @iCloud.com and the other doesn't.
    Also, "imap" is added to the icoming and outgoing info.
    I set my SL up using the "icloud: mail server settings" instead of the one for 10.6.
    But, I was trying to figure WHY there are two different ways and why specifically 10.6 differs.

  • Transfer global settings for Fiscal year

    Guide and help me...
    with regards,
    Jaya

    Hi,
        I doubt if we have such option for Fiscal variant. I maybe wrong.
    But try to get the data for Fiscal Variant in a flat file and load it to BW.
    or
    Check the the table T009B if the Fisc variant is Updated.
    If not, there must be some option for that.
