Very Basic Mail Issue

I have been hosting my website on a g4 xserve with 10.3 server successfully for a year and a half or so. I am not running any mail server on the machine. All email for the domain is hosted by an email hosting company.
Recently I noticed scripts that generate email on the server are unable to send to users with the same domain. Example: If the website hosted on the server is mydomain.com the server itself cannot send any email to [email protected] but can send email perfectly to any other domain.
I am sure there is a simple record that needs to be added somewhere but I have been unable to find it. I assume I am asking my books, forums, and google the wrong questions. If anyone understands what is going on here I would really appreciate a little advice. Apologies if this is posted in the wrong section.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks Dave for all your help.
Here is the result of that command.
Dictionary: "DNS: host mail.mydomain.com"
lookup_DNSdomain: mydomain.com
lookup_DNSserver: 4.2.2.1
lookup_DNS_time_tolive: 1800
lookup_DNStimestamp: 1149873524

The ip addy listed is that of my email host so that is correct. The DNS server listed is from the collocation facility where the xserve is.

  • Very annoying Mail issue

    Every time I open Mail.app it highlights an email in my inbox (not random, always the same email) thats almost half way down the inbox list. Why is it doing this? Every time I open mail I then have to scroll to the top of the list to see if I have anything new.
    Thanks for your help

    Another piece of information:
    I just opened Mail.app for the first time and sync'd it with my work email. While my work mail was syncing, I clicked on this email. Somehow that seems to have made it stick as the email it highlights when I open Mail.app; even though it's nowhere near the newest mail I have

  • E55 e-mail issues and solutions.

    The main problem of Nokia E55 e-mail (and AFAIK generic Nokia e-mail problems) is there are too much support for email but poorly documented. I just discovered everything I'll write here by my own trying to figure out the problems. This message is also a bug report if Nokia cares.
    First, there are many ways to setup an email account (or mailbox in Nokia jargon). Just to name the ones I know:
    (Assumption, you got some internet connection.)
    1. Go to Control panel, settings, general, personalization, one touch keys, messaging key, short press and select email setup. Then close the menu and short press the messaging one touch key. An application will start, check for connection and then asks for an email address. If you continue, you'll see that the setup options are few and useless. If you check the task manager by long pressing the menu button, you'll see a @ sign.
    2. Go to menu and select email to start Email 2.1.0 application. Select "new" and settings wizard will start then it starts a screen with email on top. Then, you need to press start and it will show you some commercial (free or not, but commercial) email options together with "other" option.
    2.a. If you choose any commercial email provider (e.g.. gmail) and enter your address and password, the application will "detect your email settings" which means your phone will communicate with a nokia server and the nokia server will log in for you as a man-in-the-middle. Then, the application will download a contract in your language and ask to sign it. If you don't accept see 2.b, if you accept the contract, it means the "Nokia Messaging Service" will be enabled. Nokia messaging service is hosted at http://email.nokia.com. (A very bad, confusing name) From now on, NOKIA WILL KEEP YOUR EMAIL PASSWORD (with some poor privacy act based on the unbalanced contract) and Nokia will access your mail in your name, Nokia will be able to change your email settings, Nokia will be able to delete your email messages Just like the well-known man-in-the-middle attack in crypto courses. (See TR's note of Aug 26, 2010 18:18 at http://noknok.tv/2010/05/26/how-to-set-up-nokia-messaging/)
    2.b. If you decline the contract or choose "other" that Nokia doesn't know how to access your account, then the application won't enable Nokia messaging service (*) and the application will enable the email access protocols already installed on your phone. Thus, you'll access your email directly and Nokia will not keep your email password. In that option, you may need to enter more server settings. But IMHO, it worth it.
    (*) Oh, yes. This is a very good point. If you're willing to use the Nokia Messaging Service but doesn't have a commercial account, you can't enable it. At least, you can't enable it as you pay. E55 includes fuzzy-lifetime service agreement. If you go directly to the site and sign up yourself online, you'll get a trial service agreement. Not the full service you've already paid. (See TR's notes above to understand what fuzzy-lifetime is. Shortly, you can enable it just once for just one person but not for each person using the same phone.)
    3. This is the tricky one. I found only one way to configure my email in that way but it has the most detailed settings for your account and it connects to the server directly. Bad news is, you can set only one mailbox up with that method. Go to menu, messaging, options, settings, email, options, new mailbox, start, enter your address and password, choose imap/pop, enter server settings, save. You'll see the default mailbox box will change. (But you won't see the mailbox in the messaging application [the app we've started by selecting menu then messaging]. I don't know if this is a bug or a feature.) Suddenly, the Email 2.1.0 application will start and it will try to take the control of your mailbox. Don't let. Selecting options, exit close that application. You'll be in the messaging application's menu again. Another options, exit closes this application too, and will take you to the main screen. Now, the tricky part. If you go and check Email 2.1.0 application, you'll see your mailbox is there. If you go to the messaging application, it won't show you your mailbox. Still, if you go options, settings, email, you'll see your mailbox as the default. Ok, who cares. Now, the settings. If you shortly press the email one touch key, you'll see your mailbox in the messaging application. If you select options then Email settings you'll get hell a lot of settings to set your mailbox. This is the only way I know to see the "Email settings" menu item and set the mailbox in detail. Remember that, there are projections of these settings on the Email 2.1.0 application's menu with less options.
    There may be other setups for exchange and so on but I didn't check that options. These were already enough for my brain to explode.

    Continues...
    The third solution is the native solution, I think (as it doesn't support html messages and Nokia Email 2.1.0 and Nokia messaging service are marketed to be able to read HTML messages).
    Another issue of the third solution is that the settings in the native messaging application and the settings in the Email 2.1.0 are sometimes conflicting. So you need to crosscheck them after you set up.
    Nokia hardly have IMAP-idle support. So, don't trust on it. The very basic example of such is, you seem to be connected with the fancy green circle at the top right but when you try to read any email, you'll be asked to connect to internet continuously and you won't be able to fetch or read the message.
    I checked many IMAP server logs to realize this issue. The problem is, as Nokia doesn't keep the credentials and disconnect from the server way too early, server generally interprets it as "remote party disconnected". And if you ask to fetch something again the second time, it creates an SSL 41 error (certificate not found) and closes the connection.
    (Yes, I got SSL installed in my mail server. I think nearly everybody has it in these days.)
    Another thing is about the "Nokia messaging service" It has hardly any customer support and it goes offline from time to time. Sometimes, you cannot reach the server even from your PC or if you can reach, you cannot configure anything.
    For example, it is possible that it creates an account for you that you aren't aware of. The account creation is automated and the username/password pair is set as the first email address you've logged in with your phone. Sometimes people are unaware of this and when they change their passwords on their accounts, their email suddenly gets disconnected. Also, sometimes they cannot remember their old passwords or their old mailboxes not in use anymore.
    Second, it maps many personal data altogether, which is against privacy. I realized this issue by practice. Here is my story:
    I got an mail account,say [email protected] and I created a nokia messaging service account with this email. This is normally a "trial period" subscription of which the username/password pair is identical to my mail account. Namely, [email protected] and some password. I also added my second email account, [email protected] to my nokia messaging account. During account creation, the site asked me about my phone number.
    Then, I bought E55 which has lifetime nokia messaging service subscription. I switched on my brand new E55 and try to configure my email. By chance, I started with [email protected]. So, Nokia created an [email protected] nokia messaging account for me. (I realized that account creation afterwards and it was a phone-lifetime subscription.) Then, I added my second email [email protected] on my phone.
    What the duck, everything was scrambled. After I realize the double Nokia messaging accounts issue, I decided to delete the old one, which was a trial. At the end, I actually got a lifetime. So I logged in to the service and cancelled my first account. What do you expect? Nokia messaging service deleted both of my accounts and all email messages from both of my phones. I was lucky that I backed them up recently. I can't imagine to lose all my business mail because of the poor and ill policies of Nokia. Moreover, now, I can't get another phone-lifetime subscription to the service in the first week of my phone. Very nice...
    Still, I got the third issue. I mentioned that I was checking my servers' logs to understand what's going on. After I tried to delete one (but practically deleted both) of my nokia messaging accounts, there shouoldn't be any references to my servers. Do you think so?
    These are some of the IP's trying to connect to my mail server even after the messaging accounts are deleted:
    131.228.18.22
    131.228.18.67
    131.228.18.30
    131.228.18.40
    When you check them at geo locator, they're all in Finland... Very nice... The only way I found was changing all my accounts passwords to get rid of the great and fancy Nokia eavesdropping service. After that, these IP's started to try the same password to log in. Currently, Nokia is trying to log in 6 times every 15 minutes to my mail accounts. I don't know when they'll stop trying. They're like terminators, they never give up.
    Advice: IF YOU EVER SUBSCRIBED TO NOKIA MESSAGING SERVICE, JUST CHANGE ALL YOUR EMAIL PASSWORDS ASAP.
    The fourth issue is about the setup process again. If you connect to the internet during setting up the email (Second option above), wizard runs so slowly, because it is trying to connect to the Nokia server (to send your username and password to Nokia databases).
    This is probably one of the reasons why people end up waiting for minutes and cannot get a mailbox at the end.

  • Basic Mail and DNS help

    I'm sorry to ask something that I'm sure has been dealt with many times. I've searched all around and found many threads that seem very close, but I guess there's some little difference that always ends up confusing me. I also get confused by what seems to me to be ambiguous terminology. Anyway, I'm pulling my hair out, so I've finally decided to ask for help.
    I'm sorry that this post is so long -- I just don't know what bit of info might be important. I'm trying to give a detailed description of my setup so experienced people can give me better advice.
    Here's my situation.
    EXTERNAL DNS
    (1) I've purchased a domain name through my ISP. Let's call it mydomain.tld
    (2) This comes with a very rudimentary control panel that allows me to define 10 A records, 10 CNAME records and 10 MX records.
    (3) I have defined an A record pointing to my static WAN IP.
    (4) I have deifined an MX record pointing to the same static WAN IP.
    (5) This seems to be OK, because if I "dig mydomain.com" or "dig MX mydomain.com" I get my static WAN IP.
    MY LITTLE NETWORK
    (6) The Internet comes into a 4-port router/modem. (192.168.0.x) This is my "Outer LAN"
    (7) One port goes to a Mini with SLS -- Say it's on 192.168.0.99
    (8) Another port goes to another router (192.168.1.x) This is my "Inner LAN"
    (9) I have forwarded port 80 through the outer router to the SLS. That seems to work fine.
    (10) I have also forwarded port 25 through the outer router to the SLS. That does not work yet.
    The SLS
    (11) When I did the initial install, I gave the SLS the name mydomain.private (I some places, Server Admin gives the name mydomain.local ... I don't know why.)
    (12) I set up the INTERNAL DNS on the SLS to handle all initial DNS queries from my LANs, with my ISP's DNS as a forwarder.
    (13) I set up the DHCP on my routers to assign the internal DNS server on the SLS as the primary DNS, and my ISP's DNS server as the secondary -- so clients on my LANS are looking at the right DNS servers.
    (14) DNS seems to work fine on both my LANs.
    BEFORE GOING ANY FURTHER:
    If anyone sees any problems with what I have done so far -- Please say so.
    ... and now THE MAIL
    (15) I created a few network user accounts on SLS.
    (16) Using squirrelmail, they were able to send and receive messages to each other -- using a browser on the SLS machine or a browser on any other computer on the LANs. But this is all resolved through the internal DNS, using mydomain.private
    (17) Mail clients (Mail.app) on the LAN can also retrieve these messages. But I can't send mail using a regular mail client ... and squirrelmail only works internally with mydomain.private
    Now, I want to get my mail server working normally for sending and receiving mail both within my LAN and over the Internet. And here is where I get confused. There's the EXTERNAL DNS server that clients on the Internet will use to find my server -- and there's the INTERNAL DNS server that clients on my LAN (?and possibly some services on the server itself?) will use. Then there are terms like HOSTNAME and DOMAIN NAME ... and I'm not really very clear as to the disnction (despite, or because of, reading so many articles). I don't know where I should be using mydomain.com and where I should be using mydomain.private)
    in the Mail Service Configuration Assistant:
    (18) I use mydomain.com for both the Domain Name (Enter the local Internet domain name) and for the Host name (enter the Internet host name of this mail system). These match the A and MX records of my EXTERNAL DNS (ie. what I see on my ISP's control panel).
    (19) To try to make things easier to start with, I enabled all options for both secure and non-secure authentication.
    (20) I added a host alias mydomain.private
    (21) Setup appeared to go fine.
    (22) Back on the LAN, "dig MX mydomain.com" gives my static WAN IP
    (23) In the outer router, port 25 is forwarded to the SLS
    (24) In SLS, in Server Assistant, In DNS, Mail Exchanger is set to mydomain.private -- this works for sending mail within the LAN only.
    (25) I tried changing this to mydomain.com, and then nothing worked.
    (26) The Nameserver for my primary zone is set to:
    Zone: mydomain.private.
    Hostname: mydomain.private
    When I try to send a message FROM an account on the Internet TO an account on the SLS, I get an error: "Couldn't find a Mail Exchanger or IP address."
    When I try to send a message FROM an account on the SLS TO an account on the Internet, the Mail Delivery System returns it to the sender.
    Well, that's where I stand now.
    I hope people reading will give me some ideas of some other paths to run down, and tests or experiments to try. I'm not afraid of the command line -- but I'm not very experienced with it either -- so maybe there are some useful diagnostic commands that I should know about.
    My ISP is not blocking port 80.
    Is there some way that I can tell if my ISP is blocking port 25? (Their customer support doesn't know anything.)
    Thanks a lot for your attention and patience.
    (Intentionally Blank)

    Oops. Sorry for the delay getting back to you.
    Thanks David_x. That was really helpful information. It opened up more questions, but it gave me some good ideas of things to try.
    I reinstalled SLS. This time I used my FQDN and accepted the installer's
    David_x wrote:
    Firstly, remove the secondary from DHCP. Otherwise clients will 'randomly' use info from either inside or outside DNS. You want them to use the internal DNS so use that alone.
    I see. So "secondary" doesn't mean "in case the primary fails" -- it means something more like "another one in the pool of possible DNS servers". Doesn't that present a problem in the event that my server is down? Why is this preferred as opposed to clearly defined prioritized list? (Then there is another issue of some services using mDNSResponder in some cases and resolv.conf -- at least that's fairly well documented.)
    DNS & Hostname, etc...
    If you want to be able to access services from inside and outside your LAN, using the server's hostname (same one inside and out), then set up your internal DNS using your .com domain, same as is used externally.
    Okay. Got it. I did that with the reinstall.
    DNS is only an "IP lookup" system so you want the hostname inside to resolve to your LAN IP and the hostname outside to resolve to your WAN IP. Forget about the .private stuff - it just confuses things.
    Okay. Thanks.
    Public MX Record…
    (3) I have defined an A record pointing to my static WAN IP.
    (4) I have deifined an MX record pointing to the same static WAN IP.
    The above may not be what you meant to say but just to check… Your public MX record should resolve to your A record hostname. Then the hostname resolves to an IP address. Your MX record should not be pointing directly to an IP address.
    Yes. You are right. That's very good of you to point that out. I did have it pointing to an IP address. (My ISPs simplistic DNS control panel is in Spanish, and I was confused about whether "nombre" referred to a name or number.) I had discovered this through brute force trial and error. This sort of thing was very difficult to test, since I don't have control over many of the DNS parameters (like TTL). That was probably my main problem. Now I can send and receive mail from my server to outside accounts, and from outside accounts to my server.
    At the moment, I can't retrieve mail on my server from a computer outside of my network. I suppose that's an authentication problem, or a hostname alias or something. I'll continue trying different things.
    Testing Port 25...
    To see if port 25 is blocked, get an outside computer and "telnet your-wan-ip 25". If you can switch on logging at the firewall for your port-forwarding rule, all the better as this will be only sure way to see that it is reaching the WAN firewall.
    By "logging at the firewall", I suppose you mean at the router? Alright. I still have to try this. From my point of view, this kind of suggestion is great advice.
    Instead of using an outside computer, would it be possible to do this sort of checking using an anonymizing proxy? I suppose they usually don't allow telnet.
    ...any chance this could be tested from my "inner" LAN? (My guess is that it needs to be from a computer that is "upstream" relative to the "outer" router. I'm under the impression that routers handle upstream connections differently than downstream connections, this wouldn't work.)
    After that, test at server... open Terminal and enter: "tcpdump -v tcp port 25"
    Tcpdump will listen on port 25. When the telnet session gets port-forwarded, you will see a listing of information about the packet received. If you get nothing then the port-forwarding is not working.
    So, to make sure I've got this straight:
    Turn on logging on port 25 in my outer router.
    Go to Terminal on my server.
    Start tcpdump listening on port 25.
    Take my netbook out to some WiFi hotspot (for example).
    Telnet into my server.
    Come home and check my logs.
    (Maybe I should check out this VPN stuff.)
    I'm looking to see that the router forwarded the port correctly.
    That's great trouble shooting advice.
    Now you'll see how slow I am. I'm reading along, running through all of this in my head, imagining all of my steps ... And only now do I realize that if (as of my latest experiments) my server has been able to receive mail from outer accounts -- then the router must be forwarding things and the mail server is, to some extent, working fine. Okay. I'm still going to go through these steps anyway to see what it should look like.
    Server Admin: Domain Name & Hostname...
    The Domain Name is just your domain name... e.g., mydomain.com
    The Hostname is ideally the same as your external MX hostname... e.g., mail.mydomain.com
    The main thing about the Hostname is that this is what your server will report as it's HELO name to other connecting mail servers. Some will check this against the public MX record and use any discrepancy to increase likelihood of spam filtering.
    Is there really any reason that a small setup like mine should use "mail.mydomain.com" instead of just "mydomain.com". Since I don't have a separate machine dedicated to mail, maybe it's just an unnecessary complication. I was just copying what I've seen around (configuration for mail and articles I've read).
    Under Advanced-> Hosting, tick the "Include server's domain as local host alias".
    Okay. What exactly does this do? I understand the words, but not the sense of the phrase. (I find this happening a lot.)
    Checking Server Settings…
    Use a terminal session to debug any basic configuration issues on the server. The error responses are much more informative than just using a mail client. Open Terminal in a local computer… "telnet server-lan-ip 25" and carry out following…
    I could connect with telnet to port 25 on the server:
    (1) From a remote computer.
    (2) From a local client.
    (3) From the server
    As we step through the experiment, you will see that we have a few problems.
    Server Response:
    Trying...
    Connected to fqdn.or.ip.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    220 fqdn.or.ip ESMTP Postfix
    #1. Declare where you are sending the email from:
    HELO something.name
    You can use a real hostname but the mail server has no choice but to accept whatever you type.
    Response: 250 servers.hostname
    So far, so good.
    On remote computers, I couldn't get any further than this.
    I'll try again tonight.
    #2. Give senders address:
    MAIL FROM:<mail@senderdomain>
    Response: 250 Ok
    I could get this to work for either a local email account or a remote email account, from telnet sessions initiated either on the server itself or on a local client.
    #3. Give recipients address:
    RCPT TO:<mail@otherdomain>
    Response: 250 Ok
    Here, I did not get consistent results.
    From a local account to a remote account, I could get "Relay access denied".
    From a local account to a local account, I could get "Recipient address rejected. Service is unavailable. But this was not consistent. I used three different local accounts, and all could send or receive at one time or another.
    #4. Start composing the message:
    DATA
    Response: 354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
    #5. Type a message. Finish with a single "." on a line on it's own.
    Response: 250 Ok: queued as dah,de,da
    #6. Close the connection by typing: QUIT
    Response:221 Bye... Connection closed by foreign host.
    suggestion for hostname.
    Were you going to add something else here?
    Well, any comments or insights that you might add will be very much appreciated. I'm going to continue sending and receiving and making little tweaks. It's really pretty confusing for a newbie. I thank you a lot for all the time you spent reading and helping me.

  • VERY annoying Mail Problem

    I'm having random mail problems that are quite strange. If I have an E-Mail waiting on my account, when I start Apple mail, it will get the message but the little wheel will just keep turning and then I can't quit mail. I have to do a force quit. Then if I start mail, the same message comes through again and it repeats the cycle. I've tried various things and I've even got rid of all mail preferences and the mail folder and started from scratch and when it tried to create an account, it does the same thing. The funny thing about it is that if I delete the messages on the server and start mail. Any further message will arrive correctly and mail doesn't go into this "loop" and all will be well until the next time I start up mail and there a message waiting to download.
    This thing is driving me up the wall as it seems almost to be a random thing. There are some interesting messages in the console log though that may help. First off, I don't think this problem even started until I installed Safari 4, then, I updated to Safari 4.0.1 today but it didn't help the problem.
    Here's the message I'm getting in the console logs.
    Jun 17 18:57:20 The-Beast Mail[371]: WebKit Threading Violation - NSData* -[WebArchive data](WebArchive*, objc_selector*) called from secondary thread
    Jun 17 18:57:20 The-Beast Mail[371]: Additional threading violations for this function will not be logged.

    Count me in with the same problem. I have spent 5-6 hours already on trying to troubleshoot the issue.
    These are the processes that I have gone through so far:
    --Used Terminal to turn off Mail's auto function for checking for new mail, so that it is check to manual checking. (The reason I had to go through Terminal to accomplish this was my Mail settings were set to check automatically ever minute. After force quitting 10+ times and restarting Mail and trying to get to the preferences and switch to manual checking before Mail started the auto process of checking. I could not beat it in time. LOL <very frustrating> Problem that I encountered, which seems similar to the both of you is that mail would begin the checking new mail process and then I would get the spinning grey gears next to every email account I had in Mail. It just looped and eventually I would have to Force Quit Mail.
    I ran disk permission repairs and keychain first aid. No apparent problems. I removed a couple of 3rd party bundles from user/library/Mail/bundles and /library/Mail/bundles as suggesting in one of Apple's tech documents.
    Still no signs issues rbeing resolved. According to another Apple doc, if you have startup disks from 10.5.7 onwards, you can re-install certain Apple applications without having to reinstall the entire operating system. Mail is one of those Apple applications and I just purchased a new MAcBook Pro which did indeed have 10.5.7 discs.....so I re-installed Mail. No resolve of issues.
    The next step I took was one which I learned from an Apple support call a couple of years ago with a similar mail issue. The tech had me set-up a new user account on the same machine and begin re-adding mail accounts in Mail in the new-user account. I imported the mail messages from the non-working Mail application in original user account. I was able to import folders from old account into the newly created account's folders. Basically I didn't loose any mail. I did not copy over any of the various preferences files associated with Mail. (files ending in .plist)
    So this is where i am now. I am going to do some research regarding any library, pref files etc. that are associated with the Mail. I plan on trashing all those files in my original user account and all data/message files which have already been imported into the new user account.
    My next step will be the transfer the entire Mail folder located at newuser/library/Mail to the original user account in the same location. I will also be replacing any of the pref files mentioned above that I find which are Mail related. With fingers crossed, hopefully Mail will be working fine, just as it now in my newuser account. Wish me luck.
    I'll log back on later to let you know the results. It's a very time consuming process. <sigh>

  • Voice mail issue with CUCM or CUCME

    Hi,
    I want to know a basic information regarding voice mail configuration in CUCM or CUCME.
    With the very basic configuration of CUCM or CUCME without any unity or unity connection, is it possible to have basic voice mail features with the system. Say, I have configured call manager server with voice gateway connected to PSTN. Now is it possible to have voice mail for the system without cisco unity or unity connection configured.
    Same goes for CUCME. We have CME bundled router configured. Can we configure voice mail with unity express without having separate license?
    Please help ,e to get the answer for this query.
    Regards,
    Sagar

    Hi Amer,
    Thanks for your help. Is this same for both CUCM & CUCME?
    For welcome greetings, I have configured its-CISCO.2.0.2.0.tcl in the VG. Can you please guide me about basicAA.tcl script, i want to give it a shot.
    Regards,

  • Using Yahoo Basic Mail w/FF, no drop down box of my e-mail contacts as I type an e-mail address - but it works in IE 8, plz fix ...

    I use Yahoo Basic Mail. When composing an e-mail, Yahoo has an "e-mail address autocomplete" function. As I begin to type an e-mail address in the To CC, or BCC boxes - if there are addresses in my Yahoo Contact list with the same string of characters, a drop down box appears and I can click on the desired address and it populates the To, CC, or BCC box. This is an extremely convenient feature.
    And, it works with IE 8. BUT, this feature DOES NOT work with FF 30.
    Obviously, this is a problem with FF 30 - can you plz advise as how to correct the problem?
    FYI: Java plug-in is always activated and JavaScript is default enabled in FF 30 on my PC.

  • Very basic questions on text/email

    So I'm now convinced - with the 3.0 OS and the 3GS handset, the iPhone finally does all I want it to do and I'll be buying my first one in a couple of weeks.
    Before I do, though, I have a couple of very basic questions:
    1. Does predictive text only work in the SMS app, or does it work in the apps for email, writing notes, etc?
    2. Can you turn the predictive text off? (I find it wildly irritating, because I know far better what words I want to write than a pesky phone does!)
    3. Having email sent to a mobile is a whole new world for me! Do I need to subscribe to MobileMe at £££ per month, or is there another way of having email from my three accounts forwarded to my mobile?
    Hope someone can help!
    Cheers,

    1. Does predictive text only work in the SMS app, or does it work in the apps for email, writing notes, etc?
    It works with Safari, the Mail client, the Notes app, and with the SMS app.
    2. Can you turn the predictive text off? (I find it wildly irritating, because I know far better what words I want to write than a pesky phone does!)
    Yes.
    3. Having email sent to a mobile is a whole new world for me! Do I need to subscribe to MobileMe at £££ per month, or is there another way of having email from my three accounts forwarded to my mobile?
    You can access any IMAP or POP account with the iPhone's Mail client, and access multiple email accounts. I currently access to email accounts with the iPhone's mail client - my MobileMe account, and a business POP account. You can access all 3 of your email accounts with the iPhone's Mail client.

  • Curios text in one of three computers when displaying the very same mail in Outlook. I run Outlook 2003 under Windows 8.1.1

    Curios text in one of three computers when displaying the very same mail in outlook.
    I run Outlook 2003 under Windows 8.1.1 in all of my 3 computers. 70% of the mail from the same sender are shown OK in the actual computer and 100% of the very same mail are shown OK in the two other computers. If I forwards an OK received
    mail from one of the “100%”, it will be received OK in the “70%” as well. For me the wrong displayed mail shows up as some kind of vector-descriptors (non converted html?). All links in blue are displayed ok and most of the text is readable in an unformatted
    way. When it comes to logos etc it’s not readable at all. What to do?

  • Entities not showing Contribution - very basic question

    Hi guys,
    Apologies for this very basic question - I'm very new to Hyperion, with just a weeks training! Anyway I'm building a basic model and have noticed that in the Value dimension my entities are not rolling up to the [Contribution Total]. This means that Entities do not roll up!!
    One suggested issue was that I needed a Sub Consolidate in the Rules, however I've set the attribute "ConsolidationRules" to be = to N. In the documentation this is defined as "N to use the default consolidation and eliminations."
    Wondering is there anything else that is needed to use default consolidations, or do I need to create some Rules??
    Thanks
    G

    Why do you think it is not rolling up? If your Consoldiation Rules are set to 'N' you do not need rules.
    Make sure your accounts are set to IsConsoldiate. Make sure you are viewing a 'Parent.Child' at Contribution Total.

  • New Lion e-mail issues

  • Bellsouth "send" e-mail issues

    I am having a Bellsouth send e-mail issue that has cropped up in the past couple of weeks (no changes in settings on my side). Don't know if it has anything to do with Bellsouth's conversion to AT&T or not.
    Basically, I can receive e-mail and send newly created, blank e-mail. However, I am unable to send e-mail with attachments or reply to e-mails received or forward e-mails received.
    I tried a suggestion of changing the port number from 25 to 587 to no avail. I confirmed my Preference setups with Bellsouth tech support and they say everything is configured OK. Thinking it might be Apple Mail, I downloaded and used the Thunderbird e-mail client, but that exhibits the same problems noted above (similar message about problems with the STMP server or the server is unavailable or is refusing STMP connections. Again, this only happens with certain types of sent e-mails noted above).
    I am at a complete loss and don't know what to try next. Any suggestions????

    I had problems when I converted to Mac last Spring, and most of the problems came from the DSL Tech Support Team.
    Please make sure that your settings haven't changed from the following.
    Go to Mail - Accounts
    POP Acct Incoming Server: mail.bellsouth.net
    SMTP - Outgoing Mail Server: mail.bellsouth.net
    Click on Server Settings:
    Sever Port Should Be: 25
    Make sure SSL - Secure Sockets Layer Is *NOT Selected*
    Click OK
    Select Addvanced on the upper right of the Accounts Tab.
    Port should be : 110
    *Do Not Select* Use SSL
    Make sure the following are selected:
    1) Enable This Account
    2) Include When Automatically Checking For New Mail
    3) Remove Copy From Server After Retrieving A Messagee
    Hope this helps.
    I work for at&t - formerly BellSouth, and we haven't done any email transformations for our FastAccess customers, and I'm sure that when we do a Transformation, you will have Dual (bellsouth -at&t) emails for a while so you can advise Family and Friends.

  • Basic Mail Tutorial?

    I'd like to set up a fairly basic mail server using OS X 10.4 Server on my LAN. I do not have a static IP, but am using dynamic DNS. The main issue I've run into so far is that none of the users I've created on the server appear to have mail accounts, even though they all have "Enabled" selected under the Mail tab of Workgroup Manager.
    I'm also not sure of what the configuration should be for my situation-
    -dynamic WAN address
    -static, non-publically-routable LAN address
    I have my router set to forward SMTP traffic on port 25 to my server, but I don't know if there are other settings I need to make in OS X Server itself.

    the accounts are created when the user checks mail or mail is recvd for the account. it's normal not to see an account you've created until that occurs.
    you are asking for a basic tutorial.... that's what the documentation should provide. post questions for anything that comes up.
    Because you are on a dynamic IP, you are going to have some issues, particularly with black-lists. If you check the option in ServerAdmin>Mail>Settings to "Relay All Outgoing Mail Through Host" and enter your ISPs SMTP server, this should help outgoing mail to be delivered reliably. If your ISP requires SMTP-Authentication, a search on this board should reveal the answer.
    For incoming mail. You have a changing IP address, so of course you need a DNS service which will update (I use zoneedit.com)...
    To setup mail service is not trivial, you can tell by the number of posts to this message board. Start with the docs, you have to be committed enough to read them.
    Please post any specific questions you have...

  • Very basic doubt regarding transporting abap developments

    Hi All,
    It may be very basic doubt, But I need an answer.
    If we develop some objects in the development and transported them to quality and for some reason some errors occured and the for correction of the errors we created some more requests and ported them to Quality.
    the number of requests are say more than 15. and if we lost track of sequece of the requests to be ported to production.
    How can we overcome this problem?
    Can we create a new transport request by right clicking the package (of course all the objects are in only one package) , this will solve the purpose. I mean to say if we transport this single request to quality then to production, all the things will get transported?
    Please give your valuable inputs..
    Thanks and Regards
    KK

    Hi All,
    I really appreciate all your quick replys.
    My question is if we create a new request from the package in SE80, can we leave the old requests,
    That is if I transport a request say req 2 of domain for solving the dependency error of the previous request say req1 ( of data element ). and again transport req 1 after transporting req 2, this will solve the dependency problem. Like this if some dependency related issues are there and we lose track of sequence of request which needs to be transported, what could be the ideal solution?
    So I mean to ask that if I create a new request for the package in SE80, will all the developments will be included in the request or do we need to follow the sequence only?
    Thanks and regards
    KK
