Want to set up .mac mail on Windows Outlook

I "thought" I was filling in the blanks properly to set up a new account.
Obviously not. I cannot get mail to SEND.
Can someone please give me dummie step-by-step information on what to put in each of the blanks and do I need to use any advanced settings.
Or any other secret tips.
This is so frustrating for something that should be so simple. Argh!!!

*Microsoft Outlook 2002 / 2003 / 2007*
The following steps are the same whether the account is being configured for IMAP or POP, except where noted.
1. From the Tools menu, choose E-mail Accounts.
2. Choose Add a new e-mail account, then click Next.
3. Choose either POP or IMAP, then click Next.
4. In Your Name, enter what you would like your recipients to see when they open a message from you, such as your full name, company name or even a nickname. Below that, enter your full .Mac email address.
5. To the right, enter mail.mac.com as your Incoming mail server (IMAP or POP).
6. The Outgoing mail server (SMTP) is smtp.mac.com.
7. The User Name field should already be filled with the first part of your email address (before the @ symbol). Enter your password below.
8. Click More Settings.
9. Click to the Outgoing Server tab and enable the "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" option. "Use same settings as my incoming mail server" should also be selected.
10. Click the Advanced tab.
11. If you would like to use a secure connection to the .Mac servers, enable both of the options for "This server requires a SSL-secured connection." The Incoming server (IMAP) port number automatically changes from 143 to 993, but you will need to manually change the Outgoing server (SMTP) from 25 to 587. If you are configuring the account as POP, the Incoming server changes from 110 to 995.
12. For POP accounts, you will also see the option to leave a copy of messages on the server. If you decide not to turn this on, your messages will be deleted from the server immediately after being downloaded to your computer.
13. Click OK.
14. Click Next.
15. Click Finish.

I want to use Mac Mail for my work email address, which containts multiple outbound options (i.e. hr@, me@ etc). Is there a way to set up Mac Mail to have an account with multiple outbound addresses rather than adding in multiple accounts?

This sounds like the age old problem with keychain & Safari. I don't know of a way to solve it without using something like 1Password.
The iOS app has it's own built in browser, so it has more control over what gets autofilled. Safari on OS X has an 1Password extension that handles account selection & autofill etc.
Keychain is great in principle, but it quickly falls down when you need tight integration with many ID's & different use cases (work, home etc).
I'd suggest you submit feedback to Apple about your thoughts. I did so years ago about this issue & this is how far we have come (back to the point where me.com synced passwords) :^)

Other tools like lastpass or keypassx may also help if you want to truly segregate password storage, but that doesn't fix autofill, the way around that issue is to dedicate one browser for work.

Setting up Mac Mail on Outlook for Windows 7

I'm trying to setup Outlook on my work machine so I can receive email from my Mac Mail account. I've just attempted the steps presented here in Outlook using their add account wizard and am running into a problem. After completing all steps and testing them I'm getting a window that pops up asking me for my user ID and Password repeatedly. I've tried inputting them and clicking ok but the window just pops up again with no error message.
I would love to download the iCloud client for windows but unfortunately my organizations regulations prohibit me from doing so. I'm also unable to access the iCloud website due to the same regulations.
Any help or advice anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

.MAC Mail on Windows Mail

Hello All,
I just got a new laptop from work, it has Vista and ''Windows Mail'', how do I import .mac mail on there? My work uses my .mac email address and I have to go to mac.com to get mail. HELP PLEASE!
P.S. Windows=Devil

I quote from Apple's Help on the subject:
'You can use any standard email program to read your .Mac Mail messages.
Open your email program and set up an account that uses your .Mac member name for the account name, your .Mac password for the mail password, mail.mac.com for the POP or IMAP server, and your ISP's SMTP server for the outgoing mail server.
If your email program supports SMTP authentication, you can use smtp.mac.com instead of your ISP's SMTP server.'
You may be able to set Windows Mail to use IMAP, which would leave messages on the server to be read by other machines if required: or you can use it as a POP account meaning that messages would be downloaded to your Windows machine (though you should have the option to leave mail on the server if you want).
To send via .mac, enter smtp.mac.com as the server, enable 'Use Authentication' (or set 'Authentication' to 'Password', depending on how it's worded in the the program) and enter your .mac username and password.

Set up e mail to windows live mail

I have set up my e mail to Windows Live mail, when i send e mails it comes u with 'Server does not support ssl connection'. I have read a few other sites and says change the outgoing mail port from 25 to 465, i have done this and can now send, is this the corrct port numbers for BT. When i log in with live mail i then says 'The server you are connected to is using a security cetificate that could not be verified. The certificate's CN name does not match the passed value. Do you want to continue using this server?' I clock yes and my e mail gets sent. ANybody have any ideas?

If you have an Anti-Virus Application that scans incoming & outgoing emails you probably also need to check out that Application's setup instructions.

How to set up mac mail to keep mail on server for 1 year

Hello;
i use mac mail and want to keep the mail on the mail server longer than 1 month, i would liketo keep it for 1 year.
Is there something i can configure this, instead of the options 1 day, 1 week, 1 month? 1 month is too short.
Keeping it forever is also not good.
An alternative would be to keep it 'forever' and then use the 'webmail' interface to remove mails older than 1 year
but his is too much work.
best regards

POP accounts will only give you control to server settings at the inbox. If you never remove it from the server, it will download all messages when you log into your account from another computer. This could be a problem with thousands of messages left on a server.
For IMAP, your inbox will atuomatically sync to the IMAP inbox, so what you do in Mail or Webmail will reflect the change at the other.
For the other mailboxes, storing messages on the server in Mail settings basically syncs the IMAP and local mailboxes like the inbox does. So, if you trash a sent message in Mail, it will trash it at the IMAP site.
If they are left in those mailboxes, then the server setting in Mail will control how long the remain in those mailboxes unless you move them or delete them manually.
If not set to store on the server, the local mailbox will not sync with the IMAP. So, deleting a sent message from the local sent mailbox will not delete the sent message in the IMAP sent mailbox.
Some accounts like GMail have settings at their site that will let you further control how mail is handled.
You can make settings to archive messages automatically when deleted from the inbox or sent folder. I believe that is the default setting in GMail. That would be what you want to save all your mail. That would keep your inbox and sent mailboxes clean. Look at your IMAP site to see what settings you can make there.
In GMail, the "all mail" is just a reflection of all messages kept and archived. You have no settings control of this mailbox on your mac in Mail. But, you can view the "all mail" under the IMAP folder in Mail.
You can still set up a smart mailbox on your mac in mail to show the messages in the "all mail" mailbox that are greater than a year old. Only those would show up in that smart mailbox and you can just select all and delete without having to visually look at all the messages in the IMAP "all mail".

Can i use mac mail in windows. from where can i download it

Hi Apple,
I would like to use mail.app (Mac mail client) in windows. Could you people please help me out in this. from where i can download this for windows.
Thanks,

Apple doesn't make any email software for Windows. The only current software it does is iTunes, Safari, QuickTime, a limited version of Software Update, and a couple of hardware-specific products.

How do I set up Mac Mail?

If your college provides wither POP 3 or IMAP access to your account. How do you access your e-mail now?
Also, i have no idea what "Account Type", "Description", "Incoming Mail Server" mean. Please help me out and let me know what I need to enter to set up my mail!!
You need all of those - no one here can provide them - your college network administration will have them and will give them to you IF they allow access to their mail server by outside programs
Account type is either POP3 or IMAP - incoming mail server could be anything and varies depending on the account type - same with other required information

How do I choose how to set my Mac up for Windows compatibility?

I bought a new Macbook due to Vista fears. I started with a trial version of Office 2004. That has expired. I have heard there is software that enables Mac to use Windows simultaneously. Parallels is apparently not for intel-based Macs, and Bootcamp requires a reboot to switch over to the other operating system. Boot Camp also requires that I burn a copy of the software onto a disc, but my computer is not able to burn discs. I want to be able to run and access Windows files and programs and also be able to access PC applications (like Pokerstars, for example, which is for PC only), any advice would be helpful, I am new at this world of Mac.

Parallels.
Parallels is apparently not for intel-based Macs
Parallels is ONLY for intel-based Macs.
but my computer is not able to burn discs
Yes, you can. All Macbooks have CD burning capabilities.
I want to be able to run and access Windows files and programs and also be able to access PC applications (like Pokerstars, for example, which is for PC only)
You need to install Windows on your mac either through Parallels (which creates a virtualized environment within OS X) or use Boot Camp to install Windows directly on your Macbook, as you would any other non-Apple computer.
