Where is my mail stored???

Hi everyone!
I am using Gmail IMAP on my iPhone. I would just like to know is the mail I have accessed stored on my phone so I can read it offline as well? Or am I just seeing it if I have internet access?
Thanks!
Reg

Mail in the Inbox is partially cached on the iPhone and this can be 'sort of' viewed offline. But, you cannot view attachments, and HTML emails are not fully cached (thus, not viewable offline). Simple, short text emails are cached in their entirety, and those can be viewed offline.
On the whole, though, offline email use is not optimal on the iPhone.

Wheres email on MAIL stored in HDD?

Hello...
Can any1 plz tell me the path where the emails are stored on MAIL...I want to know the path on the hard drive..
So that I delete unnecessary email, and the attachments and create some more space on the hard drive..
Thanx,
Dipti Lavya

Hi Dipti, the directory on your hard drive where mail stores it's data is home/Library/Mail. Home is your home user directory.
With that said, deleting messages from this folder is not the proper way to delete them. Use the mail.app and delete them there, then empty the trash in mail. I'm not sure of the problems caused from deleting them via Finder, but it's probably not good.
If you try to access your messages through the finder, you will have problems. They are named with an arbitrary naming pattern, and it will be very difficult to identify the message you want to remove. Use the mail application.

Where is Sent mail stored in POP account?

OK;
I should know this and Wikipedia doesn't explain it, but in using Mail under a POP account where "leave mail on server for x time " is selected, are both the incoming and outgoing mail saved on server or only the incoming? I ask because I am trying to restore a POP account using a TM backup that is a few days old. I know the incoming mail will be there for the time since the backup because I checked "leave on server", but will the Sent mail be there also?

Mail that you send is stored in the Sent Messages.mbox folder for the account, in your Library/Mail folder. It is not stored on the server.

I downloaded a word file from an inbox mail (the mail app) onto my iPad2, where is this file stored? How can I delete it if it takes up space in my iPad? Any ideas??

Did you ever figure out what happened?
I had the same experience as you did, but in my case it was a big fat pdf that Mail insisted I had to download before I could view it. As happened with you, I saw the file actually downloading, and after a time I was able to view the pdf. It's been my assumption that the pdf is still somewhere on my iPad, but I have no idea where, nor how to delete it if it is still there.
Thanks.

Where is mail stored after archive and install?

Hello All,
I need to know where my old mails are stored after archive and install. To give a bit of background... This is a work computer. Its a MacMini which came with 10.4 installed. Before I joined the company boss upgraded to Leopard and thats what I have been using all this time. Recently it blue screened and I had to do an archive and install after trying various other options.
I only had the original install discs with 10.4 in them and not the Leopard discs. Since I needed to my computer up and running, I used those discs and did an archive and install.
I have all my old documents, etc but I couldn't open mail from the previous systems folder because its a different OS.
Is it possible to retrieve my old emails without having to install Leopard again?
Any help is appreciated.

When I started the computer up, instead of the login page with the account names coming up, there was just a blue screen. There are lots of articles that gave suggestions to try but nothing worked so I had to archive and install.

Where is mail stored? etc...

I got a few quick questions...
I want to make backups of all the email on our server (we use IMAP accounts)... Where are the files stored?
Also, any suggestions on a good offsite backup program? I want to have a drive at home that automatically backs up the server at work every night... I could backup the whole server once when I'm at work... after that, when the drive is at home, it only backs up files that have been changed... since i am remotely backing up, i should back up incrementally like that right?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi:
No doubt others will give their opnions on what and how to back up as well as what to use.
Briefly Mail is stored in either an outgoing queue awaiting transfer to a remote server or in a local mail store accessible by local mail users. Outgoing mail messages are stored, by default, in the following spool directory on the startup disk: /var/spool/postfix. This location is temporary and the mail is stored until its transferred out. These locations can be moved to any accessible volume, either local or NFS mounted and symlinked to by the mail administrator. The Mail Service keeps track of incoming mail messages with a database, but the database doesn’t contain the messages themselves; the Mail Service stores each message as a separate file in a mail folder for each user. Incoming mail is stored on the startup disk in the following directory: /var/spool/imap/user/whatever the user name is. Cyrus puts a database index file in the folder of user messages. You can change the location of any or all of the mail folders and database indexes to another folder, disk, or disk partition. You can even specify a shared volume on another server as the location of the mail folder and database. Be careful if you decide to use a shared volume as things can slow down a bit. You should not use NFS for remotely mounted filesystems. Incoming mail remains on the server until its deleted.
You could also enable IMAP for all users that have their accounts enabled for mail. This way all mail is kept on the server until its deleted by the administrator or by the users, if you decide to go for this option as well then /var/imap is the database and /var/spool/imap is the mail store.
As for backup it depends on what you want to spend. Retrospect is a cheap solution that will do the incremental backup that you seem to want. Its been around for a long time and for most people its the first thing they turn to especially on the Mac platform. However its not perfect its slightly limited in its functions and there are problems with it running on the Intel platform, specifically Xserves. It can be ran remotely and supports a variety of devices. There are numerous others which others I’m sure will mention.

Where is mail stored?

Hi, I have a lot of various folders created for clients and projects -- from my .mac account and an IMAP account. I'm curious, where these e-mails posted on my hard drive? I want to be able to see how much space these messages are taking up on my drive, and I need to make a copy/backup some files to give to colleagues in a different location. Any tips? Thanks!

Welcome to the discussions, Denise.
The messages are stored in the various account folders in the Mail folder in your Library (~/Library/Mail). Attachments are in ~/Library/Mail Downloads.

Where is the mail folder in 10.8

I recently changed from 10.6.8 (snow leopard) to 10.8 (mountain lion). In 10.6, in the finder window, under the library tab, there was a folder for "Mail". I was able to copy the folder "Mail" and take it to another computer I have at a different location and keep both computers synched.
In 10.8, the Mail folder is not there.
Where is the application Mail, storing the mail folders with their content? I want to do the same thing of synching another computer with all of my current mail boxes and content.
Lee

It did work!
Thank You.
I did notice that the "Mail" folder in the Library maintains the same date, (the date when I installed Mountain Lion, June 11 2013 6:15 PM) even after there are updates and new E-mails comming in.
The size of the folder does change when I delete (put into trash E-mails) or receive new E-mails, but the date of "date modified" never changes. It stays on June 11, 2013 6:15PM.
Because the date never changes, it makes it hard to know when i look into "Time Machine", which is the most current Mail folder.
HELP PLEASE!

Where is the mail folder in Mtn. Lion?

I am setting up Time Machine to back up the files on my iMac. I want to exclude Applications, the System, and related files for space reasons, but want to make sure that I get a backup of my e-mail files. I have searched for the MAIL folder but can't find it. What is the path to where the e-mails are stored in Mountain Lion? Thanks

Hmm - out of curiosity - would the User Library be part of the System deep down in the file hierarchy?
@ ReidMac:
Not sure if excluding the System (or Applications for that matter) would be wise - it may prevent you from being able to restore from Time Machine in case your system is borked? If size is of concern - and since Time Machine keeps making backups until the disk/partition is full - have you considered a different backup strategy, such as a bootable clone which needs exactly the same amount of space as your system currently uses?

I have just upgraded from CS 6 (Dreamweaver) and now when I click on a picture on a web page in Dreamweaver it doesn't go to the folder where the photo is stored anymore. If this continues I'll have to go back to CS 6 as I have to put in alot of photos.

Where are printer drivers stored in OS 10.8?

I am trying to set up a Epson Stylus Photo R3000 as a new printer on OS 10.8. The printer setup locates the printer and automatically selects Epson Stylus R3000 with the notation "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download and add this printer." However, clicking on Add leads eventually to an error message: "Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R3000 because it is not currently available fromthe Software Update server." This result blocks me from setting up the printer.
I know the driver is part of the Epson driver software package that is installed with OS 10.8. I would like to select it manually. My question is where are printer drivers stored? How do I select a driver?
Thanks in advance!

While a bit of a stretch, you can download the entire Epson printer package from Apple and install it. This will include all drivers for all Epson devices as opposed to the one just for your system. The package is 1GB in size, but will include everything supported.
The package can be downloaded here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398
This following knowledgebase article says your printer is definitely supported, so the driver should be in that package: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson

ICal Problem with Mobile Account/Home and where are the calendars stored

I am using MacMinis in an office with my MacPro SnowLeopard Server running LDAP with NetworkHome accounts. Almost everything works except this ical is driving me nuts.
The problem is iCals don't sync with the NetworkHome. When I look in usr/library/calendars a new calendar appears there but it won't sync on to a different machine.
What is even more frusterating, if I disconnect the server so I am just logging in locally, I can delete all the calanders in usr/library/calendars, but when I log back in the calendars just re-appear. So where else is ical storing calendar information?
thanks
jake

where else is ical storing calendar information?
in a folder in usr/library/syncservices/local. You will have to look in the clientname.txt file in each of the folders to find which one is for iCal.

Where the table is stored.,temp tablespace is not freed .

I have created one table in oracle 8.1.7 containing 500 mega records .
my question is
1. where the table is stored as the size of users.dbf is just 20 mb and is used upto only 2 MB.
so it must not be there.
2. the size of tools.dbf in tools tablespce is somewhere around 13GB. is it there?
if yes then why?
3. also the size of temp01.dbf+temp02.dbf + temp03.dbf in temp table space is somewhere around 14 gb and it is going on increasing. say when i give command to create index it after running for some 8 hrs gives error that disk space is full . when i again run he command after adding more file and space the command runs but the space earlier utilised in temp is not released .
i have tried restrating the oracle service . but it does not release the space utilised by temp.Also the table space is temp not permanent.
IMP.
4. can i manually delete the data files in temp.
will it affect my database????
thanksin adv.

thanksin adv. Query user_segments as the table owner. This will tell you which tablespace (also the size of you table allocation).
Query dba_data_files, may need to be a DBA account (e.g. system). This will relate files to tablespaces.
The files in dba_data_files and in v$logfile and the control files listed in init<sid>.ora comprise your database.
Hope this helps
Ken
