Transferring email address from old DNS to Business Catalyst

I currently have a clients email address (ex. [email protected]) through an old Registrar site (Network Solutions) and am currently working on an Adobe Muse site for this client. Once the site is completed I will then need to complete a Domain Name Server change and transfer the address (ex. www.clientsite.com) and upload this through Adobe Muse. With this change comes the need to change the email from the old server to be now hosted by Business Catalyst. Is there a certain way to go about this? Not creating necessarily a new email through Business Catalyst but transferring an email address from an old server/network to our existing Business Catalyst account.
Thanks!

Hi,
When setting up a domain name with Business Catalyst, you can either host e-mail with BC or Externally.
http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/AP/2013-11-28_1419.png
When you're hosting externally you'll just be redirecting traffic when it comes to mail, to wherever you have e-mail setup. So after adding your domain in BC admin, you'll be prompted to add the mx record. http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/AP/2013-11-28_1420.png
Network Solutions can provide the mx value. You will also probably setup a CNAME record so that mail.yourdomain can point to their login interface.
(I've tried to search for any listings of their mx values and only stumbled across this post http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/mx-record-with-network-solutions, maybe it's of any value)
You'll select Hosting e-mail with us implies creating e-mail accounts in our interface. So that means that it's best you back-up your e-mails before switching, as the actual e-mail account over at Network Solutions will be lost and re-created here.

Transferring email addresses from one account to another

I'm not sure if this is a good place to post this but after spending a good bit of time on the phone with FiOS customer service and technical support I just feel like venting my frustrations and hope that maybe someone could give me a valid explanation of why this cannot be done.
To give a brief (hopefully) summary of what's going on...
My wife and I are currently in the process of moving from Florida to Maryland because of the current job market and economy situation. As always...the moving process has been a "blast". For at least a few months we will be "between" homes and will be staying with friends. Because of this we had to cancel our FiOS service (which I did last week and it will be shutting off sometime today). Since we've been very please with the actual service FiOS provides we have (or maybe I should say "had") every intention of signing back up with Verizon once we're in a new home in the Maryland area.
So here's where the trouble comes into play...I contacted Verizon to see if it would be possible to somehow transfer our existing Verizon.net email addresses from our account to my friend's account (the person I'm staying with). You would've thought I was asking for a year's worth fo free service. Initially I was told by customer service that this can't be done. They explained that an email address is like a phone number and two separate accounts cannot have the same email address. Thanks for the newsflash! I explained again that what I wanted to do was move my email addresses so they would now be associated with my friends account. This didn't seem like such a horrible request considering my friend pays for FiOS service and with that gets 9 available email addresses....and was only using 2 of them. She ultimately just told me it was something that couldn't be done. But she did inform me of the "Verizon Your Domain" service that would allow current FiOS subscribers to associate their Verizon.net email account with a new domain name that you create. It would cost $20 per year and would allow you to keep your Verizon.net email if you canceled FiOS service. This sounded like an ok option.
But still -- I was curious why I couldn't transfer email addresses. So I then contacted technical support. This time it was explained to me that an email address was like a social security #. It couldn't just be given to another person. Great analogies in use at Verizon....I give them that. I told the guy I was a fellow "techie" and asked him for a more detailed explanation. That's when it got good. That's what killed me. He spent all this time talking about ACL's and routing and how email addresses couldn't be moved because "you're talking about 2 million addresses". Long and short he was trying to say the Verizon email system was just too complex. Finally I told him that it had to be something that could be done....and his exact words were "well sure it can be done...but we're not going to do it if you're not paying for a service". Wow! Great response! I've been a paying customer of FiOS for about two years. I've had some form of service with Verizon for about 15 years (from phone service to mobile service with V-Wireless). I fully understand that I'm no longer paying for FiOS service. But my friend is. And he has 7 email accounts he's not using. So why couldn't they be moved? Because the system is too complex? Give me a break. Like this guy finally admitted...it boils down to money.
Finally I gave up. I told my wife that we'd just have to deal with switching to a new email address. Life will move on. She wanted to try the "Verizon Your Domain" option though. She started doing the process online...had some questions....and decided to call customer service. She got transferred around to three different people...the last of which told her "you need to call a different department" and then CLICK.
Great, great job Verizon. All I ask is if someone could give me some sort of response that makes sense. If you just don't want to offer the transfer option then tell me.
I expect to be in a new home within a month or two. And suddenly Comcast is looking very good.

Well, CS was right when they said that Verizon cannot transfer your email to another account. In order to do that they would have to overwrite the email of your friend ( I dont think your friend would apreciate that ). This is due to a limitation on the email system.
However, you may have another option. If you are going to be getting Verizon service again in the realitivly near future (4-8 weeks or so), Then after your acount is closed, contact tech support. If you get the right agent they will "enable" your email. That way you can continue to use it even though you dont have service any more. Now they cant do this for long but for temporary it can be done. Then once you get your service back, they can then move your existing email to your new account. (this can now be done as they will overwrite your new email with your old).
Now if your going to be without Verizon service for more than a couple months, you may be out of luck but this is one option
umm, oh bhoy!
In fact, a "repoint" of an email address CAN be completed onto another account AND it does not overwrite anything on the receiving account.    Each acount, whether its a FiOS account or a copper account, has an account number. The email address is assigned to the account number.    The email address can be "repointed" from one account to another, as an 'add-on' to the new account, then it can be 'repointed' back to another account later.    HOWEVER, the contract does say that you must have a valid account. AND, Verizon cannot (no company can) allow you to manipulate someone else's account.
as to the "after your acount is closed, contact tech support. If you get the right agent they will "enable" your email", well, the fact is that the account has to be provisioned to an address. So, though I have come accross accounts that seemed to still be "on" after the listed close date, it was not something that verizon's tier 1 tech support can effect (that's who you get on the phone when you call tech support) (note that 'sales' could not do this for you, either)   So good luck with that.
What happens is that Verizon will not allow anyone to take your email addresses for at least 6 months.
Before you cancelled you may have had an option to have a notice auto-replied to any email that gets sent to your email address, for a limited amount of time, like they can do with a telephone number ("this number has been changed to . . . . . ") that "this email address is temporarily suspended, or something. . . . I said MAY have had the opportunity. .. .   but if it was me, I would get to where you are going and make sure they have Verizon internet account already   and have them call verizon tech support (so they can verify their account info) with you standing there so that you can verify your old account info and immediately and plainly ask if you can have an email "repoint" done for you.

Release email address from old apple id

long time ago - before family accounts - I created an appleid for my daughter so she could use facetime on her ipod - and used her email address as the appleid. Now in the process to set up a "family" account for her so she now has a icloud.com account. What I'm unable to figure out is how I can release her email address from the previous appleid so I can add it to the new Family account appleid. It keeps on complaining about already being associated with anothe apple id.
Any ideas on how to break through that??
thnx
Dennis

Right, once an email address is associated wth a particular Apple ID, it is forever tied t that Apple ID.
Not sure why you don't just set up an iCloud account on her existing ID and then invited her to join Family Sharing?

Can I transfer my email address from old iCloud account to new iCloud account?

Hi Guys,
Basically I left the Apple ecosystem a year or so ago, I have recently purchased myself an iPhone 6 and decided I wanted a fresh start so decided to create another account.
The only problem is I still use the old email and if possible I'd like to close it on my old account and have it transferred to my new one, is this possible? I'm not too fussed about losing calendars or contacts as I successfully transferred those over.
So yeah, basically can I have my other email address moved over to the new account?
Thanks

You cannot transfer your iTunes account to your iCloud account. However you can change its login to another non-Apple address. Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID. Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'. Enter your new address (which cannot be an Apple address) and click 'Save changes'. Now open iTunes and sign out; sign back in with the new login address.

How do I transfer contact numbers and email address from my Mac to my new iphone?

Connect your iPhone 4S to your Mac using the iPhone’s USB cable, and then use iTunes to transfer your contacts from to the iPhone. (An alternate way is to use iCloud.)
I’m not sure what you mean by “transferring email address” from the Mac to the iPhone. But if you mean you want to access your email from the Mac and the iPhone, the best way is to configure your email account over IMAP in Mail on both devices.

How can I delete an email-address from an old Apple ID-account?

I need to delete an email-address from an old Apple ID-account, but the Apple ID seems to be deleted (but not by myself), to use it as a validated mail-address for communicating via iMessage from my new Apple ID.
I already tried 'Find my Apple ID'.

but the Apple ID seems to be deleted (but not by myself), to use it as a validated mail-address for communicating via iMessage from my new Apple ID.
If that AüpleID has been disabled for security reasons, you may not be able to access it. Then you need to give Apple Support a call: only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.
You can also try to email the iTunes Support using this form:https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

I recently purchased a new iPad. I would like to delete my email addresses from my old iPad so I can give it to my grandson. Can I do that without deleting the apps?

I recently purchased a new iPad. I would like to delete my email addresses from my old iPad so I can give it to my grandson. How do I do that for just the old iPad?

If you want to remove your Apple ID from the iPad you can just sign out in Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. That will not delete the apps from the iPad. He will not be able to update the apps without your username and password and he will have to sign in again in order to that.
If he is going to use his own Apple ID and he begins to switch and back and forth from one ID to the other - and if he downloads anything again using your ID, he will lock himself out of his own ID for 90 days.
If you are asking how to remove your email account from the iPad go to Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>your email account>Delete account. That will not cause you to lose any apps either.
You should probably explain exactly what you want to do in order to clarify.

Welcome to the Apple community mohinderjeet.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Mail - how to delete old email addresses from FROM box?

I'm using:
Mail 4.5
Snow Leopard 10.6.8
iCloud IMAP for my mac.com/me.com email address
When I compose new messages, in the FROM box are listed old mac.com email alias addresses that I have deleted.
I tried deleting the icloud IMAP account within mail, then recreating that account. But still, those old alias email addresses still appear. And one of them has the name of my ex-girlfriend, so I really want that off my screen, haha!
How can I delete those expired email address from the from box?
Otherwise, my iCloud IMAP account works fine.
Thanks for your help!
Bill

Thanks, Kurt.
Yes, those are email aliases (that I created on mobileme) that I no longer I have. I still have the main mac.com address, but today I deleted the aliases through iCloud.
And thanks. But I already tried that. After deleting the iCloud aliases on the iCloud website, I then deleted the iCloud account in preferences. And in the FROM box, ALL the icloud email aliases and main mac.com addresses disappeared. But when I recreated the iCloud acount within preferences, all those aliases reappeared in the from box.
I did another test - I set up the email account on my friend's computer (also running 10.6.8). And same problem. So looks like the problem is on iCloud's end.
Meaning that though I deleted those aliases from the iCloud website, when I create an email account from within Mail, it gets the info from the iCloud server and that hasn't been updated to reflect deleting those aliases.
Hm.
