VCard for Mac Mail

Hi,
My client wants to attach his own VCard with every email he sends from Mac Mail. Does anyone know of an easy way for him to automatically do this?
Thanks.
Kara

Hello Kara.
You can do so via a Signature.
Tell your client to export his Address Book contact information as a vCard.
With the contact info selected, at the menu bar go to File and select Export vCard.
Create a Signature in Mail - I named my vCard attachment signature as vCard.
Drag the exported vCard file to the signature window.
Select this Signature to be included with all messages.

Return receipt plug in for Mac Mail software?

Return receipt for Mac OSX 10.4.6 build in email software “Mail” 2.0.7 (746.2/749.3) 2005 Apple Inc.
Is there a return receipt plug in for Mac Mail software? I want to know if my sent mail was received and know if the mail was opened.

Kboo,
in general not a good idea. This may cause loops with Out-of-Office responders and also not a very trustworthy confirmation.
Options are to use certified email servers as an intermediate (google to find many) or to request explicitly a written reply from the recipient.

Where can I find free Christmas stationery for Mac Mail version 6.2?

Where can I find free Christmas stationery for Mac Mail version 6.2 on my MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.2??? Everything I've tried to download is from 2008-2009 and isn't compatible.
~Patty

Dear sig,
Thank you for responding. When I Googled, I received a list of suggested web sites, but they were all posted in 2008-2009 and, when I downloaded the application, they were not compatible with OS 10.8.2 and/or Mail 6.2. I did find an app in the App Store called "Stationery for Mail" for $6.99 (less expensive than equinux or ipresentee) that had one Christmas email template and several others for other occasions/seasons. I purchased that one so that I'd have at least one email template to use for now, but I'd love to find more templates for future use that are FREE.
I can't believe Apple hasn't created more email stationery templates for download (freeware) on its web site. I can find screensavers and wallpapers, but nothing for Mail.
If you or anyone else finds or knows of a website with FREE email stationery templates for Mail 6.2, please let me know.
Thank you!

I have installed OS Maverick 10.9 and now find titles are included for mac mail addressees. That is, I get Dr John Brown instead of John Brown. That did not happen before. How do I suppress the title?

I have installed OS Mavericks 10.9 and now find that Mac Mail includes titles for addressees. Thus, it shows 'Dr John Brown' instead of 'John Brown'. I have had the same problem with suffixes with earlier versions and solved that by deleting all suffixes from my address book. I don't want to have to do that for titles. How can I keep the titles in my address book but have them not show for Mac Mail addressess?

I have the opposite problem, Barry ... now only the eMail address shows ... no name at all, even though I type it in!

The inbox for Mac Mail lists every incoming message twice. When I delete a message it deleted both entries. I have tried the solution in "help" and it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

I am wondering if anyone is seeing my question? This is my first time and I am not sure if I am communicating correctly. If you are seeing the question above regading deleted messages reappearing please reply so I will at least know I am getting the message out.
Thank you.

Outgoing SMTP for Mac Mail Authentication (none or password)?

i have had to set up a test account due to some corruption issues and i have a new temporary password for iCloud.
and i am in the outgoing SMTP > ADVANCED section of mail.
does anyone know if i set up a SMTP server for Mac Mail as having an authentication set to "none" or set to "password" and whether this password should be my new temp pass?

If your ISP requires POP before SMTP authentication which requires checking the account's incoming mail server for new mail before being able to send with the account's SMTP server (checking the account for new mail should be required once per session only), then authentication for the SMTP server should be set to None.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the account information tab for the account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Setting button below.
If Password is selected for SMTP authentication, change it to None and test if this resolves the problem.
If None is selected and your ISP requires password authentication for their SMTP server, select Password and enter the account's user name and password required for the authentication.

Smtp auth. fails for Mac mail but ok for netscpae mail ???

Hello all,
I am having some persistent problems with SMTP authentication to send mail from my Mac via my ISP onto the internet.
What DOES work:
1. sending and receiving mail from my current ISP account using Netscape mail.
2. receiving mail from my ISP account using Mac mail
What DOES NOT work:
3. sending mail via my ISP using Mac Mail. The error message is that the SMTP authentication failed.
Yes, I checked the mail port (25) and the smtp address (in plain text ascii)
Has anyone had a similar problem, where Mac mail failes, but another mail tool succeeds? Has anyone succeeded at getting it to work for Mac mail?
Thanks,
Ary

Smileys for mac mail

Hello - does anyone know how to get smileys for mac mail? I went to smileycentral but im pretty sure its just for windows/pc users. I need to pimp out my mail. any suggestions?

Hi, the easiest way with OSX Mail is to have a Folder/Window of Emoticons open the just drag & drop into the eMail you're composing

Emoticons for mac mail

Does anybody know where I can get emoticons (smiley faces) for mac mail?
Too bad mac mail doesn't have that feature, one that stupid pc email software has build in.

They are easy enough to google for.
In Mail you have to add them as attachments.

How can I import Outlook for Mac mail into Lion Mail?

How can I import mail from Outlook for Mac into Lion Mail?

It is not Outlook that needs to be sync'd; it is the Exchange Server. Find out from the System Administrator of the Exchange Server the EXTERNAL name and use that to setup a new mail account in Lion Mail. I highlight the "external" because the URL used for Window's Outlook Clients will not work. Try the webmail URL first.

Where is the discussion for mac mail

They list virtually all other apps, itunes, safari etc. but there is no forum for the mail application. I see people have all kinds of problems with it but those don['t seem to be gathered under any specific heading where you can look for them or where it would be logical to post a question.
I have a macbook air, so that is why I'm here. I could also be in Snow Leopard because I'm running 10.6.8.
I'm running Mail 4.5 (eer I was running)
this is the second time in a few months that mail had trouble shuting down - I chose quit and it ground away for a while but never quit and I had to force quit it and now it can't find its mailboxes and when I launch it it wants to walk me through the setup app. the last time I did this it made all new mailboxes and I never got things right again even when I told it where the old mailboxes were.
How can I just skip the setup nonsense and launch the program and relink it to the mailboxes which are in the library folder for my user identity?
thanks,
brian
and PS - what is up with this forum. I click on "forgot my apple ID" (which I always have) and it keeps offering as a result to reset my password instead of telling me what my applie ID is. I don't want to reset my password, I know that, I forgot my friggin ID. Then I have to spend untold tries trying to remember what it is.

From the main page, click on the link with the title of the OS version you're using, such as Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard.

Is there a User Guide for Mac Mail in Lion OS

There seems to be an major hole in the MAC Mail application when you compare the utility against Outlook and Entourage. Also when using it on the iPad, it lacks the ability to attach a document or photo to your email you send to someone? In addition, how do you create a sub-folder so that you can organize your email into categories or specific interests.
Is there a user guide somewhere which may show all of the features and capabilities without having to struggle trying to find how to use the Apple Mail Application as a real communication vehicle?
Thanks
Fran Linnehan

None of this really is germane to this forum, which is for questions about the communities themselves, but answering quickly:
There seems to be an major hole in the MAC Mail application when you compare the utility against Outlook and Entourage.
And what hole would that be? You might want to ask specific questions in the Mac OS X Lion forum if you are looking for a feature you can't find.
Also when using it on the iPad, it lacks the ability to attach a document or photo to your email you send to someone?
With iOS things are rather reversed from the usual procedure on a computer. You don't use the Mail app; you open the document in an app that has an "email" function, which many apps do.
In addition, how do you create a sub-folder so that you can organize your email into categories or specific interests.
It depends on your email account type. Again, ask in the Mac OS X forum.

New email settings for Mac Mail & 3rd party...

Anyone have instructions for new email port settings for users who are:
-Using Mac Mail
-Using third mail email service provider (i.e., not sending and receiving through a Verizon address)
Thanks,
Pardon me while I rant (I'm hoping a Verizon employee reads this)...
I use my third party email account exclusively. It's listed on my verizon account page. So, does verizon do the logical thing and send announcements to my third party email address (?) - of course not, they send them to the verizon address which I have never once used in years.
New port settings for some email users...
I got a phone call from an automated Verizon attendant telling me to check the following for new port settings for some email users:
http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/Email/Setup+And+Use/QuestionsOne/124333.htm
I guess Verizon hasn't heard that there are millions of people using Mac computers, with Mac Mail as their email clients. And, some of these users are using obscure third party email service providers with names like 'Google'. On the above linked page, there are no instructions for these users.
I tried to use the online live support feature to get a clarification about using the new port settings. A polite gentleman with a long Indian name told me he couldn't help me and gave me an 800 number to call. After calling the 800 number, a nice lady in the Philippines (on a terrible voice connection) told me she couldn't help me - she transferred me to another department where I waited and waited and waited. I finally had to hang up.
I'm beginning to think that Verizon is a division of the United States Postal Service. Come to think of it, I get much better service from the USPS than I get from Verizon.

Are you using the Mac Mail client or Verizon's netmail?
