Using mail.app with Yahoo

Hi Guys. I have a Yahoo Plus account, which means I can download and send emails using a third party mail application like Apple's mail.app. On my iPhone I have my Yahoo account configured and it works like IMAP(I'm not sure if it is IMAP or not). It detects the folders I have on the server, It respects the rules I have applied on my Yahoo account, deletes messages from server when I delete them on the iPhone, etc.
My doubt is, can I have that kind of behaviour in the mail.app? Right now it works as a simple pop3 server. It only downloads the messages and sends them. I can't actually see the folder on the server, etc.
Do you guys understand what I mean?
Thanks a lo everyone,
Jorge

The OS X Mail application understands IMAP. Have you tried to create an IMAP account for your Yahoo mail?

Multiple mailboxes when using mail.app with google in IMAP.

Hello,
I have just started using mail.app with IMAP and my google mail account appears to be in two place. The mail.app has the following interface in the left pane.
MAILBOXES, REMINDERS, RSS and GMAIL all in grey. Below the MAILBOXES i have got the following folders, inbox, sent and trash and below the GMAIL, i have got a replication of the structure in my google account.
which set of folders should i be using?
when i deleet the mail in the MAILBOXES it does not seem to delete it in All Mail folder under GMAIL.
IS the synchronisation between the mails in the mail.app and the google server on a periodic basis. can i force the synchronisation?

Mail works fine with Exchange 2003. This is how our accounts are configured:
Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
eg. server2.bunnings.com.au
Username: domain\User alias\Full username
eg. bunnings\bobs\bob.smith
SMTP: smtp.bunnings.com.au
Web Access Server: webmail.bunnings.com.au
You can then setup the LDAP options under the composing tab to get the email list from your Exchange server.
And no i do not work for Bunnings!
Good Luck!

Assertion Failures using Mail.app with Exchange 2007...

We have been implementing and migrating our end-users to Exchange 2007. In doing so we found that Mail.app end-users were experiencing Assertion failures in Console.app. They used to cause Mail.app to crash and lose connectivity frequently to the Exchange 2007 server. We made a change to the firewall to allow communication to happen between domain controllers, but haven't been able to determine if this in fact resolved or helped hide the root cause. We seem to be no longer crashing Mail.app or losing connectivity, but the same logs when we would crash/lose connectivity are still happening when you look in Console.app.

We are getting these Assertion Failures for other end-users as well that are using Mail.app and connecting to Exchange 2007 Server. I have wiped my mail.app account and started from fresh and that didn't help. I did it manually as well ensuring that preference files, caches, and passwords related to mail.app, ical.app, and Address Book.app were removed. That did not work. I just went from 10.6.4 to 10.6.5 hoping that would correct the issue, it did not. I even set up on another Mac a baseline Snow Leopard and patched it and then configured my mail account and still got the same errors.
What I am hoping for is not a miracle (Fixing the problem), but being told what these errors mean and if there is any risks to be concerned with. In other words, can I ignore these error messages or should I be concerned? Like I said it was causing us to get the sideways thunderbolt or triangle with an exclamation point and even crashing Mail.app at times. That hasn't happened since we let the all of the domain controllers talk to each other, even though they shouldn't have to.

I echo your hope for someone shedding a light on this. I too am geting Assertion failures, every few days, though without much in the way of crashes.
Here is an example of a log entry describing one recent such failure:
+5.12.2010 11:04:40 Mail[17075] * Assertion failure in -[EWSGetFolderResponseOperation handleResponseMessage:withObject:], /SourceCache/Message/Message-1082/MessageStores.subproj/EWSResponseOperation.m: 420+

Using mail.app, exchange password expired, missing messages

Using Mail.app with an exchange account. Unknowingly my password had expired. I wrote lots of emails and pressed send. Got the 'whoosh' so I thought everything was ok. Subsequently I discovered my password had expired as I was not receiving new emails.
I then discovered the emails I was working on had not been sent (not in the exchange sent, outbox or drafts).
They are not locally in Mail.app, I can't find them in any of the local folders. What has happened? Is this a bug.
Any idea where the messages are please, 5 hours work down the drain if I can't recover them.
TIA.

Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
eg. server2.bunnings.com.au

Configuring mail account in Mail App with restriction account on

Hi there,
How is possible to create an account in Mail App with the restriction Accounts enable?
I explain myself. I configure all the iPads of my business with the restrictions enabled and select "Don´t Allow Changes" on the Accounts tab.
Settings > General > Restrictions> ( Enter Passcode ) >Enable Restrictions> Accounts > Don´t Allow Changes
It suppouses to prevent any change or create an account on Mail App, but I´ve found a couple of iPads with a Yahoo and GMail account configured in the Mail App while the restrictions still enabled.
Of course, users doesn´t know the Passcode and any of the general setting where modified.
Is there any other way ( via web perhaps, no high tech at all ) to configure an account in a restricted iPad?
I´m using iPad 2 ( iOS 5.0.1 )
I can´t figure out how, and it´s driving me crazy.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks gyrhead for the answer.
I do have Installing and Deleting Apps turned on so users can´t install or delete anything.
Guessing a four digits passcode in 10 attemps is very dificult, I discard that option.
There is somehow to add a Yahoo o Gmail account with account Restictions Enable.
Safari has no restriction indeed, except "private brownsing", so it might come from that way, but I can´t figured out how you might configure a Gmail o Yahoo account straight to the Mail App using just Safari...

Mail.app with gmail setup question

hello,
i have a large gmail account i have been using with mail.app for a long time and all works normally. however the "gmail style" is getting a bit out of control for me with the duplicates in sent/all mail. my processing is simple, after reading an email i archive it (so my inbox is always clean) so it means i move it to all mail. but since sent messages are also in all mail i'm pretty sure mail.app is storing these messages twice and whenever you search for messages you always have to filter through the duplicates. I think there are some newer ways to sync mail.app with gmail and i just wanted to ask what's the best solution to this common issue?
thank you,
rick

thanks for the reply. yes that is what i do sorry if i wasn't clear enough. actually the messages coming in are not duplicated since once i move them to All Mail there is only one copy there in All Mail. it's the sent messages since they are saved once in Sent and once in All Mail. does that make sense and how do other deal with this?
thanks again,
rick

Using mail app..

On tiger 10.4.11
I want to use mail app but i ve been asked to fill a @mac account so i filled the user name but it saus that "mail.mac.com" does not respond ? ...

Great news, thanks!
Well, Lion will slow it down, but you have to get 10.6.8 Installed first.
Personally, I'd get an external drive to install 10.6 to, update it to 10.6.8, then Download 10.7 from the App Store & Install it on the external driive, leaving your 10.4.11 Disk to boot from if you need speed.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
Lion/10.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

Remove attachments from mail app with imap account

Hi Folks,
I am quite frustrated. I am using Apple's mail app with Gmail (IMAP) and I want to remove all of my attachments from Gmail. I am using the 'remove attachment' feature of mail app to do this. However, it removes the attachment, then uploads a copy of the original email without the attachment. Therefore, I end up with two emails: The original and a copy without an attachment.
I don't get it. I just want to remove the attachments from my emails. I don't want to delete the original email.
Any thoughts?

I am not sure when I will get the chance to test this -- maybe this afternoon. But I had not understood that what you called original continued to have the attachments. If so, this strongly suggests to me that it indeed may be the way Gmail maintains the All Mail folder that is causing this. See:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6581
If there is a setting to help this, it will have to be one that is selected in the Settings webpage of Gmail, I suspect.

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 with mountain lion

Is somebody else having trouble with mail.app with mountain lion? I upgraded today and I got the Message:

I already checked and it is like that.
Ideas?

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ?

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ? iPad only prints 4x6 on full size paper. It's an HP 8600.

I also have this problem printing photos from an iPad to an Epson WF-2540 printer. It prints only 4x6 and without border (so print starts at extreme top left corner of paper). Borderless printing is not selected on printer. Printing a square photo just crops to 4x6 size.

How can I use mail merge with numbers in the new pages version?

I am trying to use mail merge with the new version of pages and can not seem to be able to figure it out. PLEASE HELP!!!

Nope. Version 5 is a fashion accessory: it looks like software, but it doesn;t actually do anything. Sort of like a sports car with a lawn-mower engine. Looks snzzy. Doesn't really work. (And given how buggy it is, I should further specifiy that the lawn-mower engine comes with a blade: it chews up your old templates, produces files that cannot be sent as email attahcments [yes, really], and—this just in—doesn;t play well with the new SMB facility of Mavericks. In short, as one reviewer put it, "un unmitigated disaster."

Can't down load mail using mail app

Can't down load mail using mail app OS, I already delete the com.apple.mail.plist but didn't work, it can connect to the server and in the progress bar, it appear: incoming messages ex. 39 of 39 but 0kb of transmission. And if I go to the Account info window, I can see the messages on the server, as well as the subject, date received, and the size of them. So, the mail, does connect to the server and see the new mail, but just doesn't download them. I also tried delete the mailbox and create a new one, but the same result.
If I use web mail I can see the mails.
Any clue to fix it.
