Using Mail with my school's email address.

I don't know if anybody can help besides my school's IT guy, but my school email is @georgiasouthern.edu. This is used as a Gmail App, so basically my school email is running off Gmail servers. I have tried setting up the POP and IMAP to allow it to work in the Mail application, but for some reason when I try to create my account, it can't find the smtp.gmail.com server for the outgoing mail...or the incoming mail for that matter. I have looked at Google Help and followed all the instructions to no avail. Please help me. If this post was too confusing, and you think you can can help me, e-mail me and ill try to explain better.

I followed everything on this website:http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=86394 , which was sent to me from my school's IT specialist.

  • I am using Mail with OS 10.9.1...I used to be able to drag and drop contact addresses from my address book to an e-mail header.  Now I have to type all the names and can't drag and drop.  Is there a setting for this?  Thanks!

    I am using Mail with OS 10.9.1.  I used to be able drag and drop names from my address book into the address header, but can no longer do that.  I now have to type each name in.  Does anyone know if there is a setting for this or is it a feature of the updated software?  Thanks for any info!

    Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
    If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
    Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
    You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

  • HT1363 hi, i use an old but great black photo/video ipod. Suddendly it won't recharge, when connected it emits several clicks and an ipod icon appears together with the apple support email address. I have tried to restore and reset but it won't work. Any

    hi i use an old black 60G photo/video ipod. Suddenly it won't recharge, when connected to the pc it emits several cicks in serires and then it shows at intervals a low battery signs and another sign, a sad faced ipod icon with the apple support email address. Any clues and to how I can rescue it? Thank you very much. Alf1962 

    I am having essentialy the same problem, but my iPod came from a PC and is now on a PC. The person who gave me the iPod didn't give me the wall adapter piece, so I bought a "Griffin" brand that was said to be compatible with this model. When I first plugged it into the wall, the Apple appeared with a bar underneath as though it was loading the new software. When the bar got to the end, the "plug into the wall" icon reappeared, but when I plug it in to the wall now, that icon is the only thing that shows, even after resetting and trying to run diagnostics.
    When I doc the iPod on a charger I have or plug the USB into my computer and "reset" it, a battery with a charge icon appears, but there is no "motion" in the icon so it doesn't appear to be charging. The screen eventually goes back to the apple then to the "plug it into the wall" icon. HELP!!! Is is possible the wall adapters isn't the right one? Should I be charging through a firewire cable instead (which I also don't have...)?

  • Using Spiceworks Help Desk with mixed primary smtp email address users

    Hello, our current spiceworks help desk environment is configured for ourone domain (we'll call it domain1.com). Everything with help desk works as expected with this domain. We have recentlypurchased a second domain (domain2.com) and configured a few of our users to use domain2.com as their primary email address. They are still using their original AD account, we just chose domain2.com as the primary smtp address.When these users try to create a trouble ticket, spiceworks seems to not recognize them and will not let them create a new ticket. Normally our users are automatically logged in when the go to the help desk portal, with the domain2.com email users spiceworksprompts for theirusername and password.When they enter it in it says that their account has not been activated yet. Is there anything I can do to get around this?Thank...

    Until now, a major problem faced by bomb disposal experts was that robots designed to deal with larger bombs didn't have the dexterity to deal with smaller ordinances in tight spaces, like a pipe-bomb under a car; while smaller robots did not have sufficient range, putting operators in danger as they were forced to move closer to dangerous scenes."To get under a car a robot has to be under four inches high; the problem that creates is that the robot can't even get over a curb, and as the antenna is so close to the ground, the range is poor," said managing director Padraig Roche."The Reacher is the first robot in the industry to have a cargo-bay to store a smaller robot designed to get under a car to destroy pipe bombs and the like...Read More

  • How to replace one char with two chars in email address policy?

    I very much like to replace the 'ß' char in the surname with 'sz'. However, applying filter '%rßsz%[email protected]' on 'Preußig' leaves me with '[email protected]'.
    So, how do I replace one char with two chars in email address policy?

    As far as I know, your only solution is to manually create such addresses instead of using e-mail address policy.

  • Cfmail "failto" not working with non-existent internal email addresses

    We've hard-coded cfmail TO value in many places across many
    applications, i.e.
    <cfmail to="[email protected];[email protected];[email protected]"
    ...>
    Suppose when one of the users (user1,user2, user3) left
    company and his email address was removed from the MS Exchange
    server, cfmail would fail saying
    A problem occurred when attempting to deliver mail.This
    exception was caused by: javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid
    Addresses; nested exception is: class
    javax.mail.SendFailedException:
    550 5.1.1 User unknown
    in the server exception log and cfmail wouldn't report the
    error to the email address of "failto".
    So I'm wondering if it's possible to have cfmail ignore the
    bad one(s) and continue to send the email? Or is there anything I
    should do with the Exchange server?
    Advice is much appreciated.

    Thank you, Dan.
    Sorry, what I meant by "non-existent" is not quite
    straightforward. Let me explain this way:
    I observed the problem only occurred to emails of our
    company. For instance: our company's email address ends with
    @abc.com.
    my email address: [email protected]
    my previous colleague's address: [email protected] (he's gone and
    the email is invalid / deactivated now)
    my client's email: [email protected] (used to be valid)
    If I code this way:
    <cfmail to="[email protected]" failto="[email protected]"...>
    "failto" does work and I got the email.
    but if these:
    <cfmail to="[email protected]" failto="[email protected]"...>
    <cfmail to="[email protected];[email protected]"
    failto="[email protected]"...>
    I never got emails reporting the failure but error lines in
    the mail log and the exceptions log which read:
    "Error","scheduler-3","01/28/09","11:55:32",,"Invalid
    Addresses"
    "Error","scheduler-3","01/28/09","11:55:32",,"Invalid
    Addresses"

  • Cannot Send Mail One of the Recipients Email Addresses is Invalid

    Cannot Send Mail One of the Recipients Email Addresses is Invalid
    This is the error message I keep getting on outgoing mail. Incoming mail works fine. Does anyone have any suggestions to try?

    You mean you can receive and send messages when you are connected to your wi-fi network at home with your internet service provider as the internet connection for your wireless network at home, but you are unable to send messages with this account when connected to AT&T's cellular network?
    If so, this leans toward your email account being provided by your internet service provider.
    Most internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of the ISP's network or not provided by the ISP unless the SMTP server is authenticated. Not many ISPs provide an authenticated SMTP server with the email account they provide their customers.
    You can do one of two things. The iPhone includes AT&T's SMTP server to select as the SMTP server to use for this email account when you are connected to AT&T's cellular network, but you probably won't be able to use AT&T's SMTP server to send with the account when connected to your wi-fi network at home.
    Or you can switch to using an email account that provides an authenticated SMTP server. A Gmail account is one, and a MobileMe account is another.

    My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address.  I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email.  My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices, it tells me that email is already being used.

    In using mail with my mackbook air with maverick, to open a message takes time as if the message is downloaded & its same every time I want to open the message from inbox.

    WoW! I'm surprised by the speed you reply and how serious you are with your answers! Thank you very much guys!!!
    Replying to Toad-Hall:
    I have a proper mailing list created as the manual says. It's a small group of contacts that exist in the address book. I do not type them as CC I just write "clients" and before I finish the word the name of the list appears.
    How can I stop Avast from scanning out going mail? It's the free version and I haven't found a real solution. I also tried to totally turn off the "mail shield" but I kept facing the same issues. However, I just turned it off and tried to send the mail, I didn't restart windows or thunderbird
    The idea with ipage server was fantastic! It would never come to my mind!!! As far as I see, the limit is 250 mails per hour. I doubt if I have ever reached the 50% of it. I also don't reach the bandwith limits... Besides that, if I had exceeded the limit I would get multi responses that "mail was not delivered".
    I want to thank you both for your excellent help so far. I'm sad to say that I still haven't solved the issue. When I made smaller lists, with the same addresses chosen from the address book I could send the messages, having a short delay. I would blame Avast but I tried the same on another laptop with my favourite NOD32 and had the same problem.
    What else should I check? Should I focus on Avast?

  • I am giving up my primary email address. i want to use what is now my rescue email address as primary. what steps do i take?

    i am giving up my primary email address. i want to use what is now my rescue email address as primary. what steps do i take?

    You will need to remove the address as your rescue email address first, which you can do by logging into your account via http://appleid.apple.com, selecting the Password & Security section and answering the security questions.
    Changing rescue email address : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
    You can then try putting it as your primary email address, which you can do either via that site, by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into, or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes. If you don't do it directly on your phone you might then need to log out of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version.

  • Is there a way to "stamp" PDF files with the purchaser's email address?

    I would like to sell PDF reports and/or eBooks via BC, but I would like to be able to stamp each such PDF/eBook with the purchaser's email address.
    There are certainly stand-alone PDF stamper programs and some providers like gumroad.com already offer that feature.
    Anyone actually done it with BC, please?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the rapid response, Liam -- even if it's not the response I was hoping for.

    if email receiver does not use thurderbird(with enigmail), can my email be traced back or spied by third party? is it meaningless if just me as a sender use thurderbird with enigmail enabled?

    Looks like the link you originally clicked was a scam to get you to submit your username and password.  I reckon the email from Google was legit (because it did not ask you to enter your username and password, but advised you to change your password.)  So it looks like they did actually block a sign-in attempt.  Sometimes, scammers do send out emails like this, but they are the ones which ask you to sign in again (because it's those details they are after).
    Given that you've changed your password three times you should be safe.  The golden rule is never submit usernames and passwords when prompted from an email - it's almost certainly a phishing attempt designed to get hold of your details.
