Yahoo email and tiger mail program

Can I use the mail program that is on Tiger with my yahoo email account? how do I set it up?

yes, you need a premium account to set up POP3 on yahoo USA. Yahoo Singapore is the nice one, and free...
don't forget to setup the POP3 configuration on the "mail option"
--> log in to yahoo mail (singapore) with iE or Safari, after login, then chose "option" --> "POP Access and Forwarding"...
hope it help...
cheers,

I just updated to 10.8.4 and my mail program is showing a series of boxes with AAAAs inside them instead of the email addresses. Also when on Safari web pages are displaying the same AAAAAs instead of type. Firefox displays fine. Can someone help me?

Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

TS3274 I recently lost all my notes and my ipad will no longer allow me to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail app. Is there anything i can do?

I also think it may have to do with the fact that i dropped it...
When i try to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail thingy, it will say "user name or password for apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect even though my yahoo password and user name is correct. I know because if i were to het my username or password wrong, it would tell me "user name or password for *insert my email* is incorrect".

This is copied from your first post. Am I reading this wrong? Aren't you saying that you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect? That's why I asked another the word apple in the name. I don't use Yahoo mail that may in fact be correct but I'm just checking,
IF you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect.....
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Mammoth printing snafu with Tiger Mail Program/OS 10.4.4

Problem: My HP 2250tn Inkjet printer--which is connected to my G4 computer through AppleTalk--is unable to print...
DRUMROLL, PLEASE...
*99.9 percent* of my text-only email messages, whether they're incoming, outgoing, or in the drafts or sent folder. By contrast, that same printer has no problem printing Microsoft Word documents, Quicken reports or Stickies.
Taking the following actions has not solved my printing problem: (1) installed the latest printer driver; (2) reinstalled the HP software: (3) completed HP's printing set-up assistant program; (3) copied and pasted the text from one of my email messages into a Microsoft Word document to see if my printer was able to print from Microsoft Word, and, sure enough, the document printed without a hitch...proof positive that the driver's working properly and is not locked up.
Additional insight, FWIW: Just got off the phone with a technical expert from the Macintosh group for Business Inkjets at HP, and he said it's not HP's problem. He said I can't print any email messages from my HP 2250tn Inkjet printer because "Tiger's email program is not sending data to the printer, even though the driver is still accepting jobs and sending jobs."
In short, the printer driver goes through all the correct handshaking protocols--e.g., "Starting Job," "Sending Data," "Printing"--BUT THEN QUICKLY CHANGES TO "No Job printing." In the "Completed Jobs" window, the printer says it's finished printing, even though nothing's printed!!! So I end up having to clear the unprinted jobs that just keep stacking up in the Completed Jobs window. Exasperating? Yes.
It appears this is a problem that only OS 10.4.4/Tiger Mail Program experts can find a work-around for.

Thanks for attempting to shed some light on the situation, but the printer problem hasn't gone away, even after optimizing my hard disk with DiskWarrior and Disk Utility.

I have yahoo email and it downloads, but there is nothing there when I open it. Does anyone know how to get the message?

I have yahoo email and it downloads, but there is nothing there when I open the message. Does anyone have any suggestions?

First of all, thank you for your patience, this is driving me nuts, can't imagine what you must think right now....
I made a screenshot that hopefully clears this up:
On the left is what I see when I open up Finder preferences, and then the Sidebar tab. As you can see all boxes are checked. The Middle folder that is open is what I see when I open Finder from the taskbar. which is fine by me. On the right however I have opened Macintosh HD. And as you can see, there is no sidebar, it just opens up with 4 folders.
Weirdly enough, when I tried to add a photo to my apple ID just now, the sidebar came up just fine. And I have found that it does that with more programs. So it is literally only when I open up Macintosh HD that it wont do it. I hope this clarifies it a bit more.
and to answer this question:
I'm not quite sure I understand. Is the sidebar layout you showed me not the one you want? Because if it is the one you want then you should just close the preferences window behind it.
this sidebar only pops up when I open the preferences - general - show in new finder part and then choose 'other'. I cant close the preference window behind it, because then it will close that pop-out folder as well..

My iPhone 5 will not allow yahoo email via the mail center

Since Monday 3/16/2015 I have been unable to access my Yahoo email from the Mail Center. I have deleted, powered the phone down, re-added the account. I have read numerous past post/questions from other users. HELP! I am about ready to get an Android phone at this point because I am so frustrated with the inability to 1) Find out WHY it is doing this and 2) how to resolve it... I have had to download the Yahoo mail app in the mean time. Additionally, on my iPad my yahoo account is working just fine!

no i have seven app icons on my home screen they arrange in 4 at the top and three in a row just below it. can i move them around anywhere i want on my screen or will they always automatically move to the top in rows.

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox. Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions. It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app. But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone. And not in the Deleted box. Just gone. Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up. Please help.
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
Next...
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
Select All = command A

i found out my prob!
here is what you do.
go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
click "software updates".
click "installed software"
if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
go to mail.
click "mail" at the top.
click "preferences...".
find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

I downgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 7, do I have to reinstall firefox? Text in Yahoo email and Craigslist getting smaller and smaller automatically.

I recently purchased a new laptop which came with Windows 8 (appears you can't find a new one with Windows 7 any more). Reinstalled the latest version of Firefox from the official Mozilla download site. Gave the laptop to my wife and she HATED Windows 8. So I purchased a license of Windows 7 and had Fry's downgrade my Windows 8 laptop to Windows 7. All going well for my wife except her Yahoo email and Craigslist adds get continually smaller and smaller. Did the CTL + trick and reset, but was wonder if I need to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. My thinking is that the Firefox configuration may think it's still on a Windows 8 machine. Would that eliminate the continual need to CTL+ every time the text gets smaller?

[[Unistall Firefox from your computer]] During the unistall process if you want to remove your Firefox user data and settings, put a check mark in the box that says Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations. If you select this option, Firefox will not preserve your bookmarks, saved passwords, and other data if it is installed again.

I am sending a mass e-mail out to my mailing list and the mail program gets locked up and stops responding before sending the e-mail?

I am sending a mass e-mail out to my mailing list and the mail program gets locked up and stops responding before sending the e-mail. How can I fix this issue? I have done it in the past successfully.

Holly, how many are you sending to?
Are you using the To; or BCC: field?
Individual names or Groups?
I suspect one malformed address at the moment without much else to go on.

How do I sync comcast email with the mail program on my iPhone and iMac

I have two email accounts set up on my iPhone. One is my gmail account which I use for work. The other is the comcast email, my default home email address. The comcast account doesn't sync iPhone, web mail, or the mail program on my iMac at home. My gmail account does. For instance, I send an email from my phone it shows up in the sent box when I go to the mail web page on my work and home computer. With comcast, if I send an email from my phone it stays on my phone. I have to bcc or cc to myself if I want the sent message to show up on the home computer or on the mail web page.

Unfortunately that is really the only work around since
Comcast uses POP3 and not IMAP like Gmail or
iCloud.
I had received an email quite some time ago that they
were beta testing IMAP with select customers but I doubt
if it has gone much further than that.

Difference between BT Yahoo email and new BT mail

I am at the moment on BT Yahoo mail and when i get an email that looks suspicious like i did this morning from BT Billing [email protected] I use the ACTIONS tab on the purple bar and select "View Full Header" which then displays details of the email and in this case in showed Return-Path: <[email protected]> which it should of been Return-Path: <[email protected]>
My question is will the new BT mail have the same function that allows me to "View Full Header"
Mike

I never saw that option during the field trial, however you can view the headers if you use an e-mail client.
edit:- I have just looked at the trial account, and there is no option to view headers on webmail.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Syncing Yahoo email and Mail

Hi there,
just wondering if its possible to some how sync Mail with Yahoo email account... that is... I have an elaborate folder setup on Yahoo, I'd like it so that if I use Yahoo email account and and create new folders that when I get home and use Mail, Mail syncs the folder structure to the yahoo structure, without me manually intervening... my Yahoo email is already set up so I can receive/send mail through Mail... its just the syncing part that somehow annoys me... I guess if this is possible for Yahoo, it would be possible for all other web mail accounts?
PPC MDD Dual Boot/Dual 1.25GHz Mac OS 9.2.x 2 x 23" Apple HD Display, 4GB RAM, 2x150MB + 1x1TB HD

The 'secret' to mail synchronization, if there is one, is the use of IMAP technology, as opposed to the more common use of POP3.
If your Yahoo account supports IMAP, you're set. If it does not, it will not be possible to 'synchronize' your mail content or Yahoo mailbox structures.

My computer and iPhone mail programs have stopped downloading my email. What happened?

Yesterday, my Mail program stopped downloading my mail messages from my email server. I noticed it won't download to my phone, either. Actually, it lets a few messages through, but not all. I went in preferences, but everything looks normal. What could be the problem?
