What is the "reply-to address" in the email config...

Hi
Since I failed miserably to get gmail working via POP3 on my 6280 (apparently because this handset does not support SSL on POP3 (which gmail requires) only TCP/IP, although neither vodafone or nokia cust serv could tell me this), I have resorted to using the somewhat clunky workaround of forwarding my gmail to my email account given by my service provider (vodafone).
So, I have set this up to work through POP3 and it does (!). But when I reply to messages (that have been forwarded from gmail) the reply comes from the @vodafone.net address.
And now (ta-daaa) my question. There is a setting in the mial configurations on the 6280 called "Reply-to address". I was (probably optimistically) hoping that this would enable me to send messages with a different 'reply to' address than the vodafone account it is actually coming from.
Well, upshot is its not working, can anyone tell me what this setting is actually for? THe user guide is ambiguous fpor this field, simply stating "..the email address to which you want the replies to be sent".
(I knew I should have gone for the n70)

You don´t have to insert your e-mail adress in this field, if you don´t want to have the e-mail back to some other adress (that is the only purpose of this setting - just like in Outlook)

  • Reply to address--- mailto: vs. email

    I have been told by a friend that he is unable to reply to my emails to the address I write them from. He says the mails bounce back. I looked into it to see if there is anything different in the settings, and I can't see anything unique about that particular account. The only difference I noticed is the reply to address in the mails when someone responds. The account that he says bounces shows this as my reply to email address.

    All of my other accounts look like this. Notice how instead of having mailto:, it shows the email address like this <email>

    First of all why would one account have the reply to like that, but my other two accounts don't? Second, is this possibly the reason why my emails aren't coming through from him? I haven't had anyone else tell me their getting bounced messages, but that doesn't mean their not.

    Just called him. He's not at computer and said it works fine from his phone. Makes me think it's something with his email, not mine. However, he replied to a message earlier and it went to the right email address with no bouncing. When I pointed that out, he said he never sent it there. He says he deleted the original reply to address and type in my other account, yet it still went to the one he deleted out. If this were anyone else, I would tell them their doing it wrong, but this guy is very tech savvy. I'm waiting to get a call back and will test some more.

  • Ipad: how does mail decide what the "reply to" address is?

    I have a weird problem.  Any mail I send from my iPad has the "wrong" reply-to address.  That is, when I send email from one account, it applies a different account address in the "from" field.
    Here is the problem (all addresses are fake)
    I have two email accounts on my ipad:  [email protected],  [email protected]  I specify "[email protected]" as the Default Account in Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    I also have an old account ([email protected]).  This account was my AppleID, etc but I want to get away from that account and move completely to gmail.  Again [email protected] is NOT registered (installed?  what is the term) on the iPad.
    Now, I would expect that when I send email, that "[email protected]" would be the "From:" address and that this would also be the reply-to address.
    Indeed, when I make a New Message, the "From:" field DOES have [email protected]  I can also tap the From: field and it gives my two choices: [email protected] and [email protected]  However, when it arrives at the recipient, it says "From [email protected]".
    Here is the header in Thunderbird when I send a test email from iPad to [email protected] (when I receive it), the header is really strange (again, edited to obfuscate my email):
    From: Joe Blow <[email protected]>
    Mime-Version: 1.0 (1.0)
    Reply-To: [email protected]
    Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2013 13:57:10 -0600
    Delivered-To: [email protected]
    Message-ID: <-2305465076252779989@unknownmsgid>
    Subject: test of return address
    To: Joe Blow <[email protected]>
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
    Sent from my iPad
    Now this is a strange header.  It is missing all kinds of fields, (such as "Received:, Retur Path, etc) but it is clear that the iPad sen the mail with incorrect From and Reply-To fields.  I dont even have [email protected] as an account on the iPad.
    So the question is:  where did it get and how do I fix it?
    Any takers?
    BTW, this is with iOS 5.1 (why, because every time I try to update, it says "An error occurred".

  • How do I change the "reply to" address for an account?

    When I try to change my reply to address it shows "recipients will reply to this other address" and I can't change it. I get this even when I try to add a new identity. Thanks.

    ''re: When I try to change my reply to address it shows "recipients will reply to this other address" and I can't change it.''
    So the 'Reply-to Address' is empty. What do you mean by 'I can't change it' ?
    You do not say what you did.
    Tools > Account Settings for the mail account
    or
    right click on mail account name in Folder Pane and select 'Settings'
    Reply-to-Address: 'recipients will reply to this other address' will be in a greyed font.
    You put the mouse cursor in this text box and over write with the email address you want to use.
    click on 'OK' to save changes.
    You can also get access to the various options and text boxes by using the 'Tab' key on your keyboard.
    Right click on mail account name in Folder Pane and select 'Settings'
    Then press the 'Tab' key to move the focus to different sections, it should start with the focus on the mail account name and after pressing 'Tab' it will move to 'account actions', press again to move to 'Account Name', then 'Your Name:' then 'Email Address' then 'Reply-to-Address' so that you can type the email address.

  • My billing information is correct however iTunes won't accept it. I have tried changing it to "no" card, my statements from the banks are addressed to the same address. What the **** is going on?!

    My billing information is correct however iTunes won't accept it. I have tried changing it to "no" card, my statements from the banks are addressed to the same address. What the **** is going on?!

    Debit cards already in an account seem to keep working, but many people have reported that when entering or updating a card that debit cards are now rejected, and they're not listed in the accepted payment methods.
    As to your issue, only the iTunes Store can help you with this. I understand the irritation, but please note that the U2 free offer is just a single song, not an entire album, so we're only talking about $.99 if you miss out but still want the track. Not a big deal, in my humble opinion.

    "You have to change your router's IP address to be able to access it. It will not give you the internet."
    I'm not sure what that means Richard, but I did change the router's IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.5.1- isn't that what you meant in your first post. I know that isn't reflected in my screen capture that I took last night, but I did do that this morning after I read your post.
    "Log on to your router and change two settings.
    Change the setting in Setup from PPPoE to Automatic Configuration-DHCP and click on save.
    Click on Advance Routing and change the setting from Gateway to Router then click on save."
    I did this and still same results as far as I can tell. Can't get online through the router.
    "Click on MAC address clone under setup tab ... click enable & click clone ...click save settings ... Check the IPaddress under WAN page ....
    If getting IP in public range .... try going online ...."
    I tried this- at least to the part about checking the IP address under WAN. I assume you mean the WAN page in the modem setup- nothing looked any different after trying what you suggested, and I'm not really sure where I would be "getting IP in public range" or what that means.
    I'm about to give up and just buy a new router to see if I can get the same lack of results with a different one. My ISP maintains that everything is set up correctly on their end and really can't do anything more for me. The Modem works and is set up correctly and they can give tech support for a router.
    Here's what my basic setup looks like now:

  • Changing the reply to address for emails?

    Is there a way to change the reply address when I send emails from the iphone. Due to the lack of exchange support I am redirecting my work emails to a gmail account and then grabbing them that way. I want people to reply to my work email when I send or reply from my iphone. Gmail has a setting to choose the reply to address but when i send an email from my phone it shows up as [email protected] and not the desired [email protected] Thanks

    I had the same issue - here's the fix.
    In your iPhone mail settings, select the account you want (in my case - and yours - it's the work account).
    Edit the Account Information section by inserting the e-mail address you want people to reply to in the "address" box. Then keep the incoming / outgoing mail server information set to your g-mail account. Your phone will now check your g-mail but address all your responses with your desired reply-to address.
    That's it...

  • How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to.

    How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to, so setting up an account with the correct reply-to address doesn't work because there's no associated outgoing mail server.  I had this working under iOS4 but it seems to have disappeared when I upgraded to iOS5.

    Welcome to the forum, NicoleYM. I don't think the Touch Mail has as many options as the Mac Mail app. However, you could set a standard signature. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Signature. There you can type a reply address and hope people see it.
    Alternatively, you can go to your GMail account in your web browser and click on Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP. There you will have an option to forward all emails (or only some, if you set up a filter) to your other address.
    Good luck!

    Creation/modification of the ship to address at item level/Allowed by SAP when sold to ≠ ship to/Impossible when
    sold to = ship to
    Hello All,
    I would like to set up an enhancement on the sales order.
    > What we want : we want to have the possibility to modify the ship to party address at item level. Indeed, we sometimes make slight modifications to address, such as adding the words "to the attention of"
    > What we don’t want : create a new ship to, to take into account the address modification or manage this modification in an item text
    > What SAP allows : At item level (as at header level) SAP allows you to modifiy the ship to address when the sold to ≠ ship to. BUT, SAP forbids the modification of the ship to address when the sold to = ship to
    Is there a means on the customizing to authorize these modification address at item level each time the sold to = ship to ?
    Many thanx
    Best regards
    Vincent

    sold to party=ship to party
    goto item and tab partner
    select partner function ship to party, again enter same code and press enter
    now see item partner automaticlly selcted.
    now double click on ship to party and change addrss etc accordingly.
    Hii Vincent,
    It is possible to change address of shipt to party at item level and it doest matter if sold to part & ship to party are same or different at header level.
    Please see above images.
    All you have to do is to select ship to party again in item tab-partners and enter code.
    Please check item you are using is activated for business data.

  • The install has detected that the primary IP address of the system is DHCP

    While trying to install Oracle 10g R2 on RHEL 5.4, I got following error during "Checking Network Configuration requirements"
    Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
    Problem: The install has detected that the primary IP address of the system is DHCP-assigned.
    Recommendation: Oracle supports installations on systems with DHCP-assigned public IP addresses. However, the primary network interface on the system should be configured with a static IP address in order for the Oracle Software to function properly. See the Installation Guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP.
    Can any one please help me resolving it. Thanks in Advance

    It really doesn't matter if the server is "production" or not. A server needs a fixed IP adddress. The IP address is how other computers (and in some cases, processes on the same computer) locate the server. If the addess is DHCP, then you can never know what the address is because it can change. It would be like you changing your telephone number or email address every day, and still expecting people to be able to contact you.
    127.0.0.1 (aka 'localhost) is a fixed address, but it is also non-routable, which means no other machine will be able to contact this one by using that address. Every computer on the planet has that address. It means "me, myself, and I". A request to that address never leaves the machine from which the request originated.
    You stated earlier that "DHCP can't be changed to Static IP", but why not? Why can't your network guys allocate you a fixed IP address?
