Viewing entourage messages in mac mail

my office uses entourage. i prefer to use mac mail so i can manage my personal messages and work messages from the same program. so i set up a new account in my mail preferences with the proper incoming and outgoing mail servers and am getting my messages and sending them out fine.
PROBLEM IS...
i keep missing meetings because i'm getting everything BUT calendar events people at work send me. i don't know why these specific messages are being transferred to my mac mail (if i open entourage they are there - but that defeats the point). at my last job we used entourage and these calendar events went through - i'd just click on them and they'd go into ical and i could reply right then and there. is it because my new office account is an exchange account?
anyway, anyone know how i can get these meeting notices to come to my mac mail?
thanks

I saw similar behavior at my previous employer when using an account set up as an "Exchange" account. I eventually found two workarounds:
1) Set the account up as an IMAP account. That seemed to show the invites and I was able to add them to iCal.
2) Leave it as an Exchange account and when you get an invite (the subject or message content should tip you off to such), try cycling through the message views. You can do this either by going to View -> Message and then going through the options in the submenu that pops up, or by using command-] (next alternative) or command-[ (previous alternative). You should be able to see the invite and then add it to iCal.
Then again, none of this would be necessary if Mail handled Exchange accounts properly instead of just using IMAP (for example, I can't use Mail here at work because IMAP is disabled on the Exchange server), but that's a whole different can of worms.
Hope this helps.

Iphone receiving read messages from mac mail

My iphone used to only receive unread emails as long as entourage on my mac wasnt open. Now i have moved to mac mail and my phone is receiving read messages from mac mail. Is there a setting im missing that will make my phone only receive new messages?
I still want my mac mail to receive these same emails later as it used to work.

You would still receive read e-mails in the inbox on your iPhone (and vice-versa) if you used IMAP but they would show as having been read and not as new. IMAP keeps all mail clients synchronised. The only alternative would be to use POP to download to your phone and IMAP to download to your laptop and create another folder on your computer and move mail over to it when read. By default, POP only downloads from the inbox so your phone would not download it again. IMAP would leave a copy in the folder you have created on the server in case you have problems with your laptop. If you delete read e-mails on your laptop, you can set it to remove them from the server after a fixed time and they would remain there until then but your phone would not download them again.

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder? I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder. Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks. I suspect that will work.
With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages. If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

I loaded all of my Entourage emails into Mac Mail. Can I now upload them to mail service in iCloud?

I loaded all my Entourage emails into Mac Mail. Can I now upload them to mail service in iCloud? MacBook Pro / Mountain Lion

Remember that the move/copy is taking place over the internet so it will take a while. I would copy instead of moving just in case of a failure.

How can I import Entourage messages into Mac OS X Mail?

Hello,
I own Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger and Office 2004 Standard Edition. I have used Entourage for e-mail, since the Mac OS X Mail application in Mac OS X Jaguar and Panther was not effective. However, since I have upgraded to Tiger, I have discovered that the Mac OS X Mail 2 application is a much better program for managing my e-mail.
I have attempted to import my Entourage inbox into Mac OS X Mail, and I am able to see all my imported messages correctly. However, Mail now wants to re-download all messages from the server—even the messages that I have already imported from Entourage. Since I have told Entourage not to delete e-mail messages from my server, I have approximately 127 MB of messages on my mail server that Mail wants to re-download! On a relatively slow wireless connection, this is a problem.
Aside from deleting all messages from my mail server, is there any other way that I can prevent Mail from re-downloading all my e-mail messages?

Hello KSG2002.
That’s how POP mail works (except in the particular case of Gmail). You would have the same problem if you wanted to use any other mail client.
I have approximately 127 MB of messages on my mail server
Bad idea. That’s not how POP is supposed to work. Leaving your mail on the POP server for some time is fine. Leaving it there indefinitely is calling for trouble.

Cannot send message (from mac mail) using the server iCloud

My Mac Mail send stopped working during a large number of mail sends yesterday.Could that be an issue? If so, what to do?
Message further reads - The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server smtp.mail.me.com.
I deleted the account and set it up again, but still can't get the mail out. Same messages
If I go on to iCloud, mail send is working fine.
Can anyone see anything wrong or suggest what to do?
I've deleted the user name below for the screenshot.
Thanks in anticipation.

There is no user name entered in your SMTP (advanced) preferences.

Starring messages in MAC Mail

Hey Guys,
I just now found that MAC Mail synchornizes pretty well
with Gmail...so I might start using it instead...
One thing I'm not seeing is the ability to 'star' an item
that also syncs it with Gmail.
Is there a way?
Thanks!

Mail has the ability to 'flag' a message. Not sure if Gmail would take that as starred. You might have to experiment. Please post back here if it works. Would be good to know.

Individual messages in Mac Mail (ver 4.6) not opening

In my Mac Mail (ver 4.6), sometimes individual messages don't open in new window. Any ideas?

Is this happening to all emails from, say sender A? Or are you still receiving emails from sender A, but not in the same "convo"?
I am just wondering if sender A is sending you email that has "no subject", thus Apple Mail thinks it's apart of a convo. Therefore it'll group them into a "convo".

Gmail not sending messages in Mac Mail

I have recently switched to Gmail from Hotmail. I have linked my Mac Mail to my new account and I'm able to receive messages fine. However, when I try to send a message, it just sits in the Outbox. I also get the spinning wheel next to the Sent folder. Please help!

i think mac mail has erased the from hotmail server after placing them in the mac mail.
i need emails back on hotmail server for access to old emails when working out and about with ipad.
I do not know if you can unfortunately, having deleted them from the POP server and as Hotmail does not offer an iMap or Exchange solution for OSX they may be 'marooned'
I will search around and see if I can find a solution.
But before anything else happens backup your mail (Mailbox Menu>Export Mailbox) and save the file somewhere you can find it, you probably don't need to hear this but you should be (have been) backing up regularly, for this and many other reasons.
I'll post back if I can find a solution to the issue.

Microsoft entourage 2004 on .mac mail?

Hello!
Anyone know, how to allow Entourage 2004 to work on .mac?
I know Entourage uses a different mail server, but I can't find it.
Thanks for your help!

Anyone know, how to allow Entourage 2004 to work on .mac?
.Mac is a service provided by Apple that includes email account access and a .Mac email account can be accessed as an IMAP or POP account with any email client such as Entourage or Apple's Mail application or with an email client such as Outlook or Outlook Express on a Windows PC.
Thanks, but want to check my entourage mail on Apple's mail program.
There is no such thing as entourage mail so if you want to access the email account with the Mail application that you are currently accessing with Entourage, who is the email account provider for the email account you are currently accessing with Entourage?
Is it an Apple .Mac email account or is the email account provided by your internet service provider that you use for connecting to the internet?
You can get the account setup information for this email account by checking the account settings with Entourage such as the account type - IMAP or POP, the incoming mail server and outgoing mail server for the account along with the account's user name format which is usually the portion of your email address in front of the @ sign only but with some email account providers it is the entire email address.

View Duplicate Messages in Apple Mail 7.3 in Mavericks

Hello,
Up till at least OS X Lion, if there were duplicate email messages, there would be a blue link in the header of the message in Apple Mail that you could click on to reveal the duplicate messages.
Im currently running Mavericks and Apple Mail 7.3.
By default, there no longer seems to be any indication that there are duplicate messages?? Is that correct???
I have found the Terminal commands that will allow me to "ungroup" duplicate messages:
To disable automatic grouping of duplicate messages, quit Mail then run this command in Terminal:
          defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
To revert to the default setting, run this command:
     defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool false
or simply delete the setting altogether with this command:
          defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
If you want to see how Mail behaves with this setting enabled, but without modifying your preference file, start Mail from Terminal with this command:
          /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail -AlwaysShowDuplicates YES
These seem to work fine as far as listing the duplicate messages in the message list.
HOWEVER . . .
What I am wondering is . .
Is there no way to leave the duplicates "grouped" so there is only single entry in the message list BUT have the link in the header that indicates that there are duplicates and allow you to click on that link to reveal the duplicates in the message list???    I find having the link in the header easier to work with rather than having ALL of the duplicates ungrouped in the message list.
ALSO - for what it's worth:
I also tried setting the "Show Header Detail" option in Mail Preferences to "Custom" which includes an entry called "Duplicates" in the list of times displayed in the custom header but I still do not get any indication (that I can see) that there are duplicate messages . . .
Any ideas or experience with this????
John

Sent message from Mac Mail work email shows my personal gmail account as Mail to: and account summary shows outgoing mail server as smtp.google while incoming shows imap.google

sent email from work through Mac Mail shows to the sender Mail to: (personal gmail). Account summary shows smtp.google on outgoing server and imap.google on incoming

Is there a way to add this automatically?
For a semi-permanent change, the Sending Server is named as "OutGoing Mail Server SMTP" on the Preference pane for each Mail Account.
To change its specifics, move the mouse cursor over it and choose "Edit SMTP Server List" from the drop-down Menu. Then choose the SMTP Server you wish to inspect/change and its information will be shown. If using similar ones for two different email accounts, change the description field, e.g., change "gmail" to "gmail (work)".

Viewing entourage messages

When I open entourage to view my email messages,
I am unable to enlarge the page size. The only way I am able to see a message in its entirety is by laboriously moving the page from left to right or vv with my cursor.
With my PC, I could simply click on the upper left hand corner to expand the page size.
Suggestions?

FYI - this is the Mail, Contacts and Calendar Discussions for the iPhone only.
Since Entourage is a Microsoft product, it is probably better for you to check here instead.
