Do you mean the ‘From’ portion? Or some other headers?

Can you post the header(s) you’re talking about? (You can obscure the addresses 
if you want)

Just wondering: are these set up as Google accounts, or as IMAP Accounts? 

I’ve never had issues sending from gmail, but I’ve got only a single account. 
Maybe setting each one as an IMAP account will fix the issues?

Mail start-up issue

2015-03-01 Thread Michael McMurtrey
At one time I had selected Mail to open automatically at start-up by  
checking it in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items. But now I  
don't want it to, so have unchecked it. However, it insists on  
continuing to open automatically at start-up/restart. What's going on  
here?


Computer is a PowerMac G4, dual-processor mirror drive door  
(PowerMac3,6), Boot ROM 4.4.8f2, running OS 10.5.8.

great deal...the computer is 12 years old, the os is what, 7?


pffft.  They'll pry my ppc macs out of my cold dead hands.
(not to be confused with my saying the same thing about Eudora a few  
years ago).


With Snow Leopard (iirc) Apple moved from monolithic .mbox mail  
files to .eml files in directories, which speeds up message  
management by a gazillion times.


The transition from the standard unix mailbox to the proprietary index  
with separate message files occurred in Leopard.  That's why I now  
gots an additional 100,000+ files on me drive.


I see now that Apple has changed their file format/set-up three times,  
during the transitions to Leopard, Lion, and Mountain Lion.  That's  
got me thinking: The older versions of Mail do not run on newer  
versions of the OS.  So how are people and businesses (with a legal  
requirement) handling this inability to read their backups and archives?


How do I tell Apple Mail to throw a message to my default browser?   
Now and then, friends (peecee users) send me poorly formatted  
html messages that get mangled by WebKit.  I know by previous  
experience that if I throw them at a non-webkit browser (eg:  
TenFourFox), they display just fine.  In Eudora, I did this by  
selecting the message then hitting an open in browser button.   
What is the equivalent for Apple Mail?


There really isn't one; because Mail is using (theoretically) the  
same engine as the default web browser. Of course, since your system  
Webkit version is ancient, you'll run into issues.


My default web browser, as selected in Safari's preferences, is either  
a newer WebKit app, or TenFourFox.  So Mail is *not* using the same  
engine.


I think I'll try Cam's suggestion of relinking Mail.  That will fix  
the slow rendering issues.


Still need a way to outright throw the email...

How do I quickly grab in-line photos?  Some people send me messages  
that contain dozens of photos.  They're in-line - dragged into the  
message body, not regular attachments.  In Eudora, they appeared  
as files in Eudora's Parts folder - easy to grab from Finder.   
Where does Apple Mail stash them?


I know that in current versions of mail there's a kind of pop-up  
menu that will let me select any or all attachments to save.


Yea, it's there if the files are attachments.  If they're in-line,  
then it's AWOL.


I've discovered that I can drag individual images to a fold in Finder,  
if I'm patient (Finder has to see each drag before you let go of the  
mouse).  I guess that will work on messages that contain only a few  
files.


Any idea where Mail is stashing these?

Explore the toolbar customization menu, there's a bunch of useful  
tools that aren't in the standard set.


Nothing pertaining to saving images tho.

How do I create a rule to move sent messages to their appropriate

I suspect it’s not ‘stashing’ them anywhere, but decoding them out of the mail 
message source at runtime.  IAC I cannot find any place attachments are saved

source with a .plist appended to the end for book-keeping purposes. Mail 
doesn’t work like Eudora splitting attachments away from messages like that.

You might try using ‘smart' mailboxes.

Mail used to have that option; but it no longer does, mainly because it just 
increases the total spam load on the system because the ‘from’ address is 
rarely the real place it came from.

To be honest, I’ve never really like client-side mail rules; I always had the 
luxury of being able to set up server-side ones. Note: if you use your iCloud 
email address you can set the rules on the iCloud server, which will filter 
email before it goes to your devices:

One thing I now notice that Dan did not mention was what kind of email server 
he’s dealing with: POP or IMAP? I think Mail does things differently between 
those two. I’ve NEVER used POP mail for more than a few months. Just too many 
devices I need to get my email on...

Apple Mail questions

2014-12-01 Thread Dan C

Hi,

Sooo... I switched from Eudora to Apple Mail and am having a few  
growing pains.

(QuickSilver 2002, Leopard)

I used EudoraMailboxCleaner, rebuilt the resulting mailboxes in Apple  
Mail, and got most of my filters er a rules working.


My first impression of Apple Mail was that it's a POS because it was  
abysmally slow.  Turns out that to rebuild a mailbox, Mail opens each  
and every message for *writing*, not just reading - so when they're  
closed, fseventer throws them at ClamXav and Splotchlight for that  
unnecessary 2nd and 3rd rescan.  Splotchlight, of course, goes into  
convulsions from being given so much work to do, mangles its indexing,  
and throws thousands and thousands of errors at the console, which  
then requires several cpu hours of the logger process futzing around.   
sigh.  So I beat it all with a stick, disabled Clam and Splotch, let  
the rebuilds finish (21 years worth of mail!) then let Splotchlight  
spend the night reindexing from scratch.


Overall Mail's performance is improved, as long as I stay away from  
big mailboxes.  Those still take 30s to a minute to view.


Ok - the questions:

Other than installing a newer WebKit system-wide (which has stability  
issues), is there an easy way to point Mail to using a newer build?   
The newer builds are much faster at displaying image heavy messages.


How do I tell Apple Mail to throw a message to my default browser?   
Now and then, friends (peecee users) send me poorly formatted html  
messages that get mangled by WebKit.  I know by previous experience  
that if I throw them at a non-webkit browser (eg: TenFourFox), they  
display just fine.  In Eudora, I did this by selecting the message  
then hitting an open in browser button.  What is the equivalent for  
Apple Mail?

mailbox.  I'd like them to automagically move to the right mailbox, to  
keep the threads intact.


How do I create a rule to move attachments to an alternate folder?   
I've no problem creating rules that move messages to specific  
mailboxes.  But on some, I'd like to also move the attachments to a  
different folder, away from the default (which has become cluttered  
fast!).


Thanks,
- Dan.

No really, because Mail is calling the system Webkit libs; again 'getting a 
newer version of the OS' and, hence, moving to an Intel system is a surefire 
way to improve performance.

 Other than installing a newer WebKit system-wide (which has stability

 The newer builds are much faster at displaying image heavy messages.

You could try to relink the binary from the command line with
install_name_tool. On my 10.4.11 system, it is linked to

/System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/WebKit

You could change this to point to another WebKit library with something
like

install_name_tool -change 
/System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/WebKit 
/Foo/Bar/Bletch/NewWebKit.framework/Versions/A/WebKit 
/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail

However, I would back up your Mail.app first! No promises that this would
work, YMMV, batteries not included, please see your physician for execution
time lasting longer than four hours.

alerts and considering  other features dropped in Yosemite. PLUS, Yosemite is 
BUTT UGLY.   The Safari Icon is moronically, dimwitted, as is the contacts 
icon. BUT, I love Apple Mail.

 Hi,
 
 Sooo... I switched from Eudora to Apple Mail and am having a few growing 
 pains.
 (QuickSilver 2002, Leopard)
 
 I used EudoraMailboxCleaner, rebuilt the resulting mailboxes in Apple Mail, 
 and got most of my filters er a rules working.
 
 My first impression of Apple Mail was that it's a POS because it was 
 abysmally slow.  Turns out that to rebuild a mailbox, Mail opens each and 
 every message for *writing*, not just reading - so when they're closed, 
 fseventer throws them at ClamXav and Splotchlight for that unnecessary 2nd 
 and 3rd rescan.  Splotchlight, of course, goes into convulsions from being 
 given so much work to do, mangles its indexing, and throws thousands and 
 thousands of errors at the console, which then requires several cpu hours of 
 the logger process futzing around.  sigh.  So I beat it all with a stick, 
 disabled Clam and Splotch, let the rebuilds finish (21 years worth of mail!) 
 then let Splotchlight spend the night reindexing from scratch.

Well, to be honest, moving to a modern version of the OS will help a great 
deal...the computer is 12 years old, the os is what, 7? 

With Snow Leopard (iirc) Apple moved from monolithic .mbox mail files to .eml 
files in directories, which speeds up message management by a gazillion times. 
Spotlight was vastly improved over the years. I have users with tens of 
thousands of emails in their mailboxes and normal performance. 

Spotlight actually works now :-) It's quite useful, and I haven't seen a 
machine bog down with indexing in a dogs age. Apple's made a lot of 
improvements over the years.

 
 Ok - the questions:
 
 Other than installing a newer WebKit system-wide (which has stability 
 issues), is there an easy way to point Mail to using a newer build?  The 
 newer builds are much faster at displaying image heavy messages.
 

No really, because Mail is calling the system Webkit libs; again 'getting a 
newer version of the OS' and, hence, moving to an Intel system is a surefire 
way to improve performance.



 How do I tell Apple Mail to throw a message to my default browser?  Now and 
 then, friends (peecee users) send me poorly formatted html messages that 
 get mangled by WebKit.  I know by previous experience that if I throw them at 
 a non-webkit browser (eg: TenFourFox), they display just fine.  In Eudora, I 
 did this by selecting the message then hitting an open in browser button.  
 What is the equivalent for Apple Mail?

There really isn't one; because Mail is using (theoretically) the same engine 
as the default web browser. Of course, since your system Webkit version is 
ancient, you'll run into issues.

 
 How do I quickly grab in-line photos?  Some people send me messages that 
 contain dozens of photos.  They're in-line - dragged into the message body, 
 not regular attachments.  In Eudora, they appeared as files in Eudora's 
 Parts folder - easy to grab from Finder.  Where does Apple Mail stash them?
 

I know that in current versions of mail there's a kind of pop-up menu that will 
let me select any or all attachments to save. 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4pojrv6fatugfvu/mail%20attachments%20menu.png?dl=0 
IIRC there were attachments buttons in the tool bars that did the same thing.

Explore the toolbar customization menu, there's a bunch of useful tools that 
aren't in the standard set.


 How do I create a rule to move sent messages to their appropriate mailbox?  
 I'm accumulating mailing list replies and such in the Sent mailbox.  I'd like 
 them to automagically move to the right mailbox, to keep the threads intact.

I'm pretty sure if you add a rule to the Sent mailbox you should be able to do 
what you want.

Image Attachments in Mac Mail

Why does Mail sometimes change my attachments to embedded images? I'm

I assume you mean one of the ADC displays that get power from the  
video card.
Nothing special -- if the power supply was marginal enough for an  
ADC display
to push it over the edge, there's nothing you could realistically  
have done

to avoid its failure.

However, ADC doesn't draw a great deal, which is why Apple ended up
abandoning it.

Yes, which version of mail? I am using 2.1.3 under 10.4 and there is  
an option for image size in the bottom right corner of the compose  
window once you add a picture. Make sure that is set to actual size.  
I took a quick look and I did not see where to set the default image  
size in Mail's preferences.


The 640 x 293 is pretty close to the medium. so it may be sizing  
things down to that.

You could try compressing them (one by one, or in a single folder/file), and

Every version of Mail I've used has had some means of setting the size of an 
attachment. I believe Mail tries to be 'smart' and limit  sizes to a 
'manageable range' by default

IIRC, since 10.4-ish, there's been a small dropdown menu at the top of the body 
when an attached image is present, allowing you to choose small, medium, large 
and 'original size'. This applies to all attachments.

That said there has been seven versions of Mail to date, always specify the 
version and/or OS X version when you post a question, because the actual answer 
may vary depending on the version.

Re: Mail corruption issue Cause:Corrupted Envelope Index

2013-08-21 Thread Len Gerstel

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I ruled out real ram problems since it was only mail that crashed,  
and when I re-initialized it everything was fine.


It appears that the problem was a corrupted Envelope Index file.

I copied my old ~users/me/library/mail folder back, and returned the  
old mail.plist. Deleted the Envelope Index file. It rebuilt the file  
on relaunch and it appears that everything is back and working fine.


Thanks again for the help, and this trick goes into my pile of early  
step, non destructive, repairs.

Re: Mail corruption issue

2013-08-20 Thread gifutiger
Greetings,

If you haven't tried this yet it might just work. When I've had mail 
problems it has worked for me.

In your home folder go to Library/Mail and you will find a file 
called Envelope Index.
With the Mail Application closed change the name of this file to 
bak.Envelope Index (which will save the file incase it is needed later)
Now open the Mail Application, when it is opened it will give you a message 
that this is the first time that you have open the Mail Application. 
Accunolage and continue, now the Mail Application will look for all of your 
emails and rebuild the data base index If you have a lot of eMail's it may 
take a long time.

If the Envelope Index is corrupt, when done you will have all of your eMail 
just like the last time that they were before corruption. 

Cheers.

Bad RAM could cause this, but given your other problems, I suspect it's a
simpler cause: your mailbox somehow got corrupt and it's causing Mail.app
to freak out on the unexpected data. Unfortunately, unless someone else
knows a shortcut for this , until the offending portion of the mailbox is
deleted (hopefully a message and not some essential metadata) you probably
have no choice but to manually go through each and every one of them.

Re: Mail corruption issue:? Testing Ram

What browser (and vers) are you using?

I was just puttering around in Yahoo's webmail this morning (my 
'throwaway' email address), and had no big problems.  Safari 5.0.6 w/ 
Leopard-WebKit.  Overall it was crapyahootastic slow and typically 
cumbersome, but then their webmail interface has never been very good.


The select all function is there.  At the top/above of the select 
checkboxes, there's an unlabeled checkbox with a wee triangle next to 
it.  Click that box to select everything.  Use the drop-down menu 
from the triangle to do other things.


The real alternate solution -- get off Yahoo Mail.  Switch to Gmail. 
It's completely free, has a better web interface, and supports both 
POP3 and IMAP.

Strange Mail behavior

My Mail application has started doing something strange: When I copy a  
JPEG to paste it into an outgoing email, Mail is converting it to a  
TIFF. How do I make it stop? I've checked the Preferences, but there's  
nothing there that seems to apply.

They're probably using your IP address for geolocation, which is why  
most of the ad-supported websites I hit seem to have ads for Tucson  
Mother makes money fast! and the like.


My suggestion is ignore the ads. If you really want ot browse in  
private, use Incognito windows in Chrome, or Priavte Browsing in  
Safari, etc.


Owners of websites DO have some control over what ads are placed on  
them, so if there's something egregiously offensive tell the  
webmaster of the site in question.

They track your IP address also, so you'll need to use something like
Tor to remain more anonymous. Even Tor can be tracked with some
effort. I have cable which is supposed to be dynamic IP, but AFAIK
they rarely if ever change my IP. If I started hosting they'd probably
pop my IP just to make it more difficult for me, after all, they're
not a bi-directional information super highway, they're one-way
intravenous ads for fun  profit.

As in all things, there is a cost to be paid to remain anonymous, in
this case Tor results in a noticeable increase in latency before
webpages load, the cost of slicing  dicing all those packets across
all those anonymous Tor nodes.

Tor on a PPC Mac may be difficult to setup now. AFAIK you use Vidalia
for PPC, but finding a browser may be harder, I suspect you'll need
TenFourFox or something with plugins enabled and a Tor plugin? The
current Tor Browser Bundle required OS X 10.6+ and Intel, so getting
Tor working on PPC may be a bit of a challenge now, but I'm sure it
can be done. Just search Tor PPC or Vidalia PPC.

Here are current PPC versions of Vidalia to get you started:

Re: your mail

2012-08-22 Thread Cameron Kaiser
 Hello. I have set up FTP server on my G4, but it shows the root of my boot
 drive an not the raid array that is what I set up as a shared folder. How
 can I get it to show my shared folder and not my boot drive? Thanks in
 advanced. 

FTP is not file sharing. When you log into an FTP server, you are placed
at the root of whatever the server thinks the filesystem is, and for OS X
that's /.

If you don't mind just cd'ing to your array from there, then just do that.

If you want to make FTP see only a part of the filesystem, you need to change

In each release, Apple has made changes in the way their Mail app 
stores data.  So I would not expect the older Mail app to be able to 
talk to the data from the newer Mail app.


Not sure if manually changing the folder structure would be enough. 
I'm thinking Mail probably made changes to the individual file 
contents too.


If you changed both to use IMAP, perhaps that would let you keep 
things in sync - at least for newer messages.

Thanks Bruce and Dan for the insight into what Apple did to Mail,
essentially making it impossible to import from newer to older
versions of its own software, but ironically taking care of switchers,
eh?

Anyway, my wife and I will stick with POP. In our joint account, I
don't want her erasing what I want to archive, nor to I want to erase
hers.

Looking at the raw source on all the photos that forward properly,  
the information in the Content-ID between the  and  is the same as

If that's what is going on it's a bug in IOS, or something odd that Verizon is 
doing. My iPad is running the same version of IOS as he is, and this is being 
set by the  email libs in IOS, so if it was something with the app, it should 
have happened to mine as well.  

Best to teach him how to send more than one photo at a time:

Go to the Photos app, select either an album, your photo stream or the camera 
roll, and WITHOUT selecting a picture,  click the 'out of box arrow' (damned if 
I know what the official name for it is...) tap on the photos you want to send, 
then tap share. Much easier than sending multiple emails!

list of e-mails pane and the pane for the currently selected e-mail  
below it. This action moves the divider bar to the bottom of the  
Mail box and thus allows you to delete any and/or all e-mails while  
avoiding opening any. It's a perfect way to delete spam messages  
without opening them or causing Mail to mark e-mails after the  
deleted messages as read. To restore the divider bar to its  
normal position, simply double-click on it after you've deleted  
messages.


This is a neat way to avoid inadvertently letting a spammer know  
their message has been sent to a live e-mail address since most  
spam reports back to the sender as soon as an e-mail is opened. I  
use it all the time to delete suspected spam as well as e-mails Mail  
marks as Junk.

I will look at Eudora.  I had it on my Mac's for years way back but  
stopped using it for some reason.  Think is was version 5.  Thanks.

Yeah because if you arrow down to the next message the marker for 'Unread' 
doesn't change. Didn't know that, although it's not surprising since I use my 
email client to, you know, READ my email, and so never have it set not to

It's really not open, as Bruce has learned. Double-clicking on the Mail divider 
bar to expand the list of Inbox e-mails and prevent any from opening may be a 
partial solution for you, but it's all I need to delete posts either marked by 
Mail as Junk or that have all the earmarks of spam without opening them. Neat

 The idea that all mail should be IMAPped HTML  and opened with all of the

IMAP vs POP has nothing to do with the HTML stuff and spammers.

Spam is easily contained...my junk mail folder (which I leave to fill until I 
empty it) currently contains 19 spams that escaped our spam filtering system on 
our mail server, going back to the middle of April.

I've had maybe one or two a week that gets past both the server-side and 
client-side filtering.

Last time I looked we were sending nearly 90% of all mail messages straight to 
the bitbucket, and this in an environment where emails mentioning online 
pharmacies and viagra could well be legitimate messages.

Once this system was set up it was pretty much automated, (for anyone who wants 
to know, we're using using amavis in conjunction with clamav and spam assassin 
+ RBL filters + some other stuff to do the trick, then passing the filtered 
mail from our SMTP servers to our IMAP mailstore running dovecot. I can provide 
exhaustive detail if anyone wants)

Maybe once a month someone complains that they didn't receive something and 
we'll find it in rejected emails, and either whitelist that sender or adjust 
the rules to fix it.

This is done for approximately a thousand users for about 0.1 FTE...ie: the 
person who runs our email system spends about 1/10th of his time doing that.

We are all assuming that you are attempting to avoid opening spam,
thereby sending the message that yours is a live email address.
If this is the case, you can turn off the Mail option to automatically
load email images. I've understood that it's that that triggers the
response to the spammer. The option is in both the Mail client and the
Webmail versions.
Should you wish to see the images in a particular post, the option to
Load Images is a button in each note's upper right corner.

Mail error log

2012-05-03 Thread Len Gerstel

Running Mail 2.1.3 on a G5 with 10.4.11. Connecting to a POP server

I am having connection issues to my mail server, hosted by a small  
firm. I frequently get the connection issue (I am pretty sure that is  
it) icon when checking mail. The icon that is an exclamation point in  
a triangle inside a circle. It normally goes away the next time Mail  
autochecks for new mail, but right now it has been in this state for  
45 minutes.


I am looking for the error log that might give a hard reason for this  
(can't find server, too many connections-connection denied, whatever)  
to pass on to the hosting company, since I am probably the most tech  
literate customer.


The only Mail logs I can find are in /var/log/mail.log (and mail.log. 
0.gz through mail.log.4.gz). None of these have any entries for  
today, and the issue is going on right now.

Caveat, I've never been saddled with a POP mail account, so I'm not sure

Look in the system log, the /var/log/mail.log logfiles are for local SMTP use, 
ie: your machine acting as a mail server. All userspace apps, and most system 
programs and daemons log to the system log; the only things logging to any 
other log in the /var/log hierarchy are system-level programs that explicitly 
create their own logs, like apache and cups.

Clean out the dust. 

Absolutely, recently purchased a MDD and while unpacking it a dust bunny about 
the size of a mouse (the rodent) fell out.

When I opened the MDD up the inside was really dusty. Before I attempted to 
start it up, I blew all the internals out with the shop's air compressor. Now 
it is nearly as quiet as a cat that only makes noises when it needs to; you get 
the idea.

Look for a bunch of dust below the Garth Vader grill and also the dust in and 
around the power supply. And clean out all the dust you can find --glen

I have been able to peel back the sticker in the center of the hub very 
carefully and a little drop of olive oil will usually do it. Not all the fans 
have the sticker.

My MDD was not quiet even after a good cleaning.  In fact it was so  
noisy, it was uncomfortable to use it.  I finally found a Silent fan  
to replace the main fan inside the dual 1.25GHz G4 MDD.  It was only  
about 3/4 as many CFM's as the original fan, but made a huge  
difference in the sound level.  I removed the PSU fans and ran them  
outside the computer, but found that they did not produce much noise,  
so I put them back into the PSU and left them in my MDD.  I did not  
check to see how noisy the small case fan is, but now after replacing  
the big fan that blows through the G4 CPU modules heat sink, I am  
satisfied with the noise level and don't mind using my G4 MDD.

My stock Apple Copper heat sink just arrived today, so that should  
help keep things cooler than the Aluminum

Thanks, and I bow to your HAXORness. I installed Perl and  
Email::Address as per the instructions, but my eyes glazed over  
pretty quickly.


After some more googling I came across http://andreasamann.com/MacOSX/ 
Mail_Scripts which does it from address Book


I figured I would give it a shot. Selected 14,547 messages in Mail  
and selected Add Sender to Address Book, then let my dual 2.0 G5  
churn for a while. Address book deduped them, so left with 3,152  
cards. Then ran Export Addresses (Address Book) from the site above's  
scripts and let that churn.


Total time trying to find a one step solution from mail, both active,  
including searching, and computer churning was about 4.5-5 hours  
through all the variations I tried.


Total time once I accepted a 2 step solution going through Address  
Book, about 40 min. 10 of that was active, the rest churn time.

Mail problem

2012-01-14 Thread Baldassare Guzzo
PM G4 933 OS 10.4.11.  Mail 3.6.  Something new and weird just  
started.  When I open Mail, I now get two copies of all my Gmail  
mail.  If I delete one, the other just disappears and sends me to the  
oldest mail in the list.  So If I delete the mail to slowly, I end up  
deleting mail that I want to save because it bounces to the bottom  
of the Email list (which I have sorted by date).  I hope I described  
this properly.  Is it a problem with iCloud, Gmail (IMAP), or Mail?
Any idea's?  Thanks in advance.

Select Rebuild from the mailbox menu. Likely it's a munged local index file for 
that mail folder. This happens fairly regularly with the old style mail setup 
in 10.4 ...your mail 'folder' is one giant file of concatenated email messages.

It's not iCloud, you can test if it's Gmail by logging into the gmail web 
client, and seeing if the mail duplication occurs there.

But I'll lay great odds that rebuilding your inbox will fix it. This is a 
relatively common issue with IMAP accounts.

I think you made your own problems by possibly jumping the gun for the  
full reinstall. Normally the process for a non-booting System would be:


1) try a Safe Boot by holding Shift key at startup.
2) Boot alternate disk, partition, or disc and run Disk UtilityRepair  
Disk.
3) reinstall the latest Combo Update, in this case the 10.5.8 Combo  
Update.


Only as a last resort should you reinstall the whole System software.  
Now that you've gone this route, you'll probably have to mess around  
with this for a long time. I've always avoided the Archive  Reinstall  
method, and rather opted for a clean reinstall on an alternate HD and  
then transfer all the accounts and data with Migration Assistant.


You'll probably have to manually find your old mail files, and old  
mail preferences now, a real hassle. I wish I could help, and I have  
done this before, but I can't remember what I did (other than transfer  
files  folders from the archived system into the new system). You've  
got a lot of work to do now.

When Mail opens you will get a screen almost like it is the first time

This is what the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) line is for. If you're using Mail.app, 
and it isn't present in the composition window, make sure 'BCC Address Field'

Re: Mail Question

2011-08-14 Thread QuoVadis
Hey Jeffrey!

You'll need to activate the BCC entry-field in Mail. Here's how:

http://email.about.com/od/macosxmailtips/qt/How_to_Add_Bcc_Recipients_in_Mac_OS_X_Mail.htm

BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) sends an exact copy of the e-mail you've set
up, but the e-mail addresses added in the BCC line will not be visible
to (at least) any recipients listed in the 'To' and 'CC' fields. Might
even be so that no one sees the e-mail addresses in the BCC entry
field!


Greetings,

Eelco.

That is correct, if all of the addressees are BCC none of them will be 
able to see who else it went out to.


On the flip side, if you want to see who you sent a message to 
previously using BCC, double-click the message and when it opens in it's 
own window it should show who the recipients were. Note that this only 
works for messages you originated, not messages you received BCC.

I have been having the same problem lately.  I just keep re-entering  
the password and one can access through a web browser.  It may be an  
issue with Mail 2.1.3 - Tiger?


Also, be sure and DO NOT RESPOND to the spam please verify your  
account e-mails that seem to stalk Yahoo.


SPAM is getting smarter, I guess.  AOL Mail used to intercept just  
about everything, but more and more spam is getting through these days.

Yahoo doesn't make it easy to contact them.


That's totally completely massively unacceptable from a for-$$$ 
service provider.  Get thyself away from them ASAP.


Seriously, considering dropping Yahoo, except I've had the address 
for so long and it's associated with can't-remember-how-many 
accounts.


Yea.  I know how that goes.  What a PITA.  I've got several GMail 
accounts, a Yahoo account, and a few elsewhere.


When my original provider, Netaddress -- the ubercool @usa.net domain 
- went pay, I thought ... ok, it was cheap.  But then the next year 
they went PAY!  wtf!  From $12 to $50/yr!  So I went to Yahoo.  About 
the time I got things migrated, Yahoo went pop-for-pay!  g. 
Before that changeover they were rock solid.  After, outages and 
other problems galore!  That's when I switched to GMail.  Kept the 
Yahoo account as webmail.  Took me about two years to migrate fully.



I spend hours trying many different configs.


I'm finding two different sets of settings being recommended in 
Yahoo's help system.  How nice.


This page seems to be the latest, and was updated YESTERDAY (June 23)!

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html

It says to use
   pop.mail.yahoo.com, SSL and port 995.
   smtp.mail.yahoo.com, SSL, port 465, auth.

But then other (older) pages say to use servers such as
   plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
and
  plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
(same ssl and port settings)

Finally, for now anyway, I'm having Yahoo mail forwarded to my other 
email address.


Good.  And when you reply, it should have the better address on the 
outgoing messages.  Start telling people to use it instead...

Yes, I'm a paid customer.

So, finally found the Yahoo complaint (customer care) form yesterday
late.

Today,  Yahoo POP3 working OK.
No way of knowing what's different.

One of the main reasons I've kept the Yahoo acct was ease of web mail
for the rare
traveling. But, I think I'll now begin migrating elsewhere.

Thanks for all the input and support.

The do not even mention Mac Mail in their set up advise.

Yahoo doesn't make it easy to contact them.

I spend hours trying many different configs.
Finally, for now anyway, I'm having Yahoo mail forwarded to my other

I have Mail rule that puts the forwarded emails into a mailbox, but
to get them up near the Inbox, I have a Smart mail box that draws from
that forward box.
It's a jury rig but acceptable for now.
