Using colours in mail

Hi Forum,
I'm looking at using Colours to flag mail in Mail. firstly, i know i have done it before but i simply cannot find how, when i create a new colour palette, how I changed the colours?!?!? i can create the palette, i can create a new colour name, but i cannot then change or assign a colour to that new colour name. any ideas?
secondly, any tips on how to use Mail to flag differing accounts for different reasons? I have 2 business accounts A, and B, in both I want to flag the mail with its own colour, easy enough, A can be red, B can be blue. i then need to flag different e-mail with each account for different reasons but similar in each account.
For example, in A, i need to flag the email from that accoutn to be blue, then i want to have a smart folder to sort certain types of email, say:
To Do: Urgent
To Do: Not So Urgent
This Months Expenses
Last months Expenses
i can use a flag, but if i use just the colour flag for this account to match the email colour, Blue, only one flag for 4 uses needed. how do differentiate the task above?

nobody knows how to edit the colour pallette in Apple Mail? at all? is it harder than i imagined?

Thank you, "the-edmeister" -- You render a great service, one that lifts my spirits.
Your answer also taught me to be a little more persistent, as I had started looking at Preferences, and just didn't notice the icons (including Applications) at the top of that window that would have led me to my answer.

How do I use the „Apple Mail To Do" Folder on multiple Macs?

Hi,
I'm using the Apple Mail To Do Folder respectively the "To Do" function in mail on my iMac and my MacBook. I will find To Dos created on the MacBook in the "Apple Mail To Do" Folder on my iMac, but the iMac doesn't show these To Dos in the associated mails. Same happens for To Dos created on the iMac when I try to use them with the MacBook. Any hint?
Thanks.

Turning the mail account off does not really solve this problem. All the snooper has to do if the mail account is turned off is to turn it back on, read messages and then turn it off again.
If the Apple mail works like other mail systems, you can mark read messages as unread. Then you really won't have any way of knowing that your messages were read already.
The simple solution is (wondering why Apple has not implemented it) is to remove the password in the Mail settings so that each time the Mail is opened, it will ask for a username and password.

When I try to sign in to the support community using one of my email addresses it asks for my apple support community user name and when I type in what I think it might be I get one of several messeges Ie. An account using this e-mail address already exis

When I try to sign in to the support community using one of my e-mail addresses and I put in nothing or what I thought was my apple support community user name I can get one of several messages
Ie.1. Please specify a user name
2.An account using this e-mail address already exists; only one account per e-mail address is allowed on Apple Support Communities
How do I find out what my Apple Support Communities user name is

Good luck with this!!!
EVEN USING what WAS my Username, this is the exact problem I am having having entered my correct ID and Password.

When using rogers.yahoo mail, I need to refresh my screen after every 2-3 actions.

While using Rogers.yahoo mail in FireFox, the screen freezes after every 2-3 actions (read email, delete email, respond to email, move email to folder etc.). I have to refresh the screen and then it goes along for another 2-3 actions and I have to refresh again. Very frustrating. I opened the same email account in Google Chrome and IE and it works fine there. This started happening yesterday.
In perhaps an unrelated thing, I get this error message every day, once, when I start up my PC for the past 2 months:
Microsoft.NET Framework
Unhanded exception has occurred in your application If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Unable to load DLL 'hppatusg01.dll': The specified module could not be found (Exception from HRESULT:0x8007007E)

No problem.
If the above does not fix the issue, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item: 
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]] 
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you.

How was someone using my e-mail address as their Apple ID?

First time posting, so I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum.
1) I have a primary e-mail adress that is not linked to my iTunes. The only time this e-mail address was used in conjunction with anything Apple was when I purchased Quicktime Pro in 2006 and registered my iPod in 2007. I do have an iTunes account with a seconday e-mail address, and log in occasionaly to listen to free podcasts (never purchasing anything)
2) Today on my primary e-mail address, I recieved a warning that an app was downloaded, with this e-mail as the Apple ID. This was the first e-mail I've recieved from Apple on this address since registering my iPod in 2007.
I live alone, and don't share my electronics with anyone, so I know it's not that. so I'm left wondering - how did someone use my e-mail address as an Apple ID? Wouldn't I have recieved an e-mail during the initial registration this person tried to use?
Thankfully I have no credit card associated with Apple, so I wasn't overcharged, but this seems like a big security hole.

The content was this:
Your Apple ID, [my primary e-mail address] , was just used to download -KingdomConquest- from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to iforgot.apple.com to change your password, then see Apple ID: Tips for protecting the security of your account for further assistance.
Regards,
Apple
There is the possibility that I did change my iTunes account to my primary and just forgot, but that's doubtful considering a) today was my first e-mail from Apple since 2007 on this address and b) I'm still recieving iTunes updates on my secondary e-mail that I registered years ago.
Also, I don't own any devices capable of running Kingdom Conquest. Thankfully, it's a free app. It would be interesting to see a list of other apps downloaded with this ID, if any. Is there a way to do that?
Maybe someone mistyped their email address when creating their account and it just happened to be yours?
I thought that, too, but my e-mail address is [email protected] My first name is somewhat common, my last name is definitely not. And back to what I said earlier, I never recieved a registration e-mail from Apple, just the one above.

Hello everyone. I have my itunes account for some years, and i've purchased far too many apps and music. Now the company i work for, has to change my account in the iphone, in order to use the corporate mails and calendar. How can i keep my applications?

Changing your Apple ID to your current, working email address will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address.

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)
I want in attachment, not in the body mail.

I think your only solution is to zip the image files first and then attach them.
Read this from a site I found:
Sending Graphical Attachments -- When you attach a graphical image to your message, the recipient of your message sees the image inline (that is, in the body of the message) if her email client supports inline display. ("Take Control of Email with Apple Mail" contains a table listing the capabilities of popular Mac and PC email clients.) If a client does not support inline display (or the recipient has turned off the inline display option), the file appears as an attachment that must be opened in a separate program.
On the one hand, an inline image is easier for the recipient to see - all she has to do is look at it. On the other hand, inline images can be frustrating to scroll through. If you do not wish to send a graphical image inline, you must compress the file before attaching it - Mail, sadly, lacks a built-in compression option, though fortunately for Panther users, the Finder offers Zip compression without requiring a separate application.
Note that when you compose a new message, Mail always shows attachments in the body of your message. You can manually drag them somewhere else, but many email clients display all attachments in a separate list, regardless of where you place them in the message body.
If you paste an image into a message or drag & drop an image from another window (say, a Web browser), Mail converts the raw image data to an attachment in TIFF format. On the other hand, if you drag & drop the icon of an image file (or use the Attach button to locate the file using the file browser), Mail leaves the attached image in its original format. This difference is significant, because although most email clients can display JPEG images just fine, support for TIFF - especially in non-Mac email clients - is less common. If possible, I suggest attaching image files as opposed to pasting or dragging in raw image data.

Why can't I login using my e-mail address anymore?

Hello,
I've been using SDN for 8-9 months now. It's setup to remember me but in the last couple of days it would just hang when I tried to go to any SDN link.
I deleted the cookie and tried logging on using my login instead of e-mail and that works just fine. Tried logging in with e-mail again and it hangs.
So I thought maybe I had the wrong e-mail address in the system. I went through the process to request a new password which then e-mailed me the new password and it got to to me meaning that it has the right e-mail address.
So what's up? Did something change on SDN where I no longer can use the e-mail address to login?
Thanks.
David.

Raj,
I sent an e-mail to SAP and this was their reply:
Hello David,
I apologize for this problem but we are experiencing problems with the use of the email address in place of the userid number. Please continue to use the account number at this time. We hope to have this problem resolved soon.

Services that need mail server - Use an outside mail server

Hello,
I have a mail server somewhere on the internet, and outside my localnetwork.
Our OSX local server serves few services : DNS (for local dns name) OD, Ical, Ichat, Afp, Mobile access, vpn
Do they services use mail server locally ?
Do I need to setup a mail server localy or can I use my outside mail server ?
If needed
If I just set on every OD users, a mail as [email protected] and if my internet mail servers has an account for them, how can I define for these users the smtp/pop accounts to allow them to send mail through my net mail server ?
Do I have to setup a local mail server and accept in my internet mmail server this local mail server to relay mail in ?
In fact, what I'd like is to keep this internet mail servers, and set all my OD users using this mail server.
Thanks for your help, and sorry for my poor English. Hope you undurstood

I don't think you need mail services running to use any of those services. I can't speak for mobile access because I don't use that service. I think iCal and iChat need an email address for each user. You can set that in the info tab for each user in workgroup manager.

This is regarding CBMA in SAP PI 7.3.1. I have set up the alert mail using default java mail client.I do receive the alerts via mail. But my requirement is to direct all the mails to Business workplace inbox in ECC.

This is regarding CBMA in single stack SAP PI 7.3.1. I have set up the alert mail using default java mail client.I do receive the alerts via mail. But my requirement is to direct all the alert mails to Business workplace inbox in ECC.
So I need to set up PI to redirect mails to ECC Business workplace user inbox (sbwp). From here rules are set up & routed per distribution list.
Please guide me how I can achieve this requirement.

Hi,
yes, it is a little bit different. This is the issue.....
But I am not sure if your links will help:
1) /people/william.li/blog/2008/02/13/sap-pi-71-mapping-enhancements-series-using-graphical-variable
is about a different solution. I do not need to count the number of lines of the source message.
And the second variable is about concat line by line from unbound node to unbound node.
My issue is:
Souce:
Message line (0...unbound) ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
.    ResultLine   (1..1)
Mapping:
=>   ResultLine1
       ResultLine2
       ResultLine........          => into UDF to an element (1..1) in one mapping operation.
So that all "ResultLine"s are included.
The result is explained in the given link for Mail attachment with UDF.
So I am not sure how to use this thread for my issue.
In the comments of that blog Christoph Gerber writes that the new variable feature can only handle single values.
So it is not suitable for my purposes as I have a list of values here that needs to be moved into the target message field.
2) http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Java/UsingEditJavaSectioninMessageMapping
shows where to find the button "Java section" which is not available here in 7.1
3) /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/10/01/xi-new-features-in-sp14
too is about the nice little button for Java Section that is no longer existing on PI 7.1 screen for mappings.
So my issue is: How to replace the Java section function with global variables in PI 7.1?
Best regards
Dirk

Using Apple's mail how does one overscore a text?

Hi Air007,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I think you are asking about "Strikethrough? "
In your email message, select the word or words that you want to edit.
Right click or Control click on the selected text.
From the menu, choose Font > Show Fonts
Select the second item on the toolbar, which is Text Strikethrough
Choose a single, double or color line
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Can't use iPhone and Mail at the same time

When my iPhone is on I can't receive Apple Mail on my computer. I get an error message on the computer that says another client is using the mail (or something to that effect). If I turn off the iPhone the error message usually disappears on my computer allowing me to access mail. Is there something I can do so I can keep my iPhone on and also get Apple Mail at the same time?

Never seeing this problem.
Are you using a MobileMe IMAP account or another provider and account? Is problem when using the Apple Mail application in OS 10.4.11 on your listed G5?
