Question by e-mail and iClouds
I use Mail 9.2 in OS X El Capitan. The problem is an e-mail sender/recipient unwanted but persistent recurring which always forces me to change the e-mail address of the recipient manually. Here's how it goes:
I receive emails from x which is sent from the account x now uses exclusively. Previously, x maintained two accounts of different e-mail and addresses - I deleted the defunct address x info by his Contacts on the PC as well as Contacts also stored in iCloud. ICloud information contains is no longer the address defunct e-mail, but Contacts on the PC he maintains he is now grayed out, listed under the heading of 'other', and I can't edit/delete it. Whenever x sent me an email from the email account it uses now the old defunct email address will appear as the sender and if I don't manually change to the correct recipient address - this is if I use 'reply to sender' - the email is only sent on behalf of the deceased. "Deceased" means the x e-mail account is now no longer in use.
How this issue can be resolved? (1) I would completely remove the old e-mail address. (2) when I receive an email from x, I love to show the correct address of the sender; and (3) when I send an email to x, I like that it appears as the recipient's address whoever x uses now.
Another question: after I went to iCloud to modify the coordinates of x, all my contacts on PC's Contacts have doubled and slept that way, even after disengagement from iCloud, forcing me to manually delete all the duplicates. Why is this happening and how can it be avoided?
Hi dubwisedude,
For the specific problem with a beneficiary, in addition to delete the contact from your Mac, at www.icloud.com and on your PC, I'd also look for delete recent recipients list in your email applications. Here are the instructions on how to do this on a Mac. You may need to pick up how to do the same on your PC. Close the Mail application and restart the computer to refresh after doing this.
Address postal (Yosemite): manage the e-mail addresses in the list of previous winners
iCloud: delete recent recipients e-mail addresses
For the biggest problem of duplicate contacts, the resources below will explain how to resolve contacts iCloud on your iMac and your PC (if you use Outlook).

Hello! I'm just curiosities about why the Mail App is included in the iCloud features? I mean, your mail is updated on your device once you connect this device to the internet. So, what is the purpose of the iCloud?

question about sending mail and the use of UrlEncodedPostData
Hello
I need to send over https three things:
(1) framework, which is a byte [] object, and has some information about the device and the things that need to be sent to the server
object String 2) imei - imei of the device.
(3) data - some data, which are a String object
now I need to use URlEncodedPostData, but...
UrlEncodedPostData _post = new UrlEncodedPostData(null, false); _post.append("frame", ???)-> my frame is a byte[] object
so, what should I do? should I change channel frame? but, later when I send the _post to the server that I use:
_httpConnection.openDataOutputStream(_post.getBytes());
YH, the problem is-how to put a byte [] object to the urlEncodedPostData and then send it?
The point of encoding is to ensure that special characters can be detected correctly. There is no URL address, as the settings.
You will notice that the class that you are trying to use is called URLEncodedPostData. I don't know if the same URL encoding is used in BOTH and given POST, but I think this class should be used in the data of PUBLICATION, rather than to GET data (look at the name). You will find that the process of encoding data GET is not so difficult and I don't know if you look you will find J2ME coding code on the Web, that will help you create correctly to GET URL format.
However, I still think you should consider the difference between GET and POST, and what data is passed by each type of application. I think that if you had done that earlier, you wouldn't be in this position, you understand better my answers and you will understand how to create the queries POST you have to best use later. GET and POST are NOT Blackberry or specific RIM, they are the Web specifications and used on all platforms. There is a lot of documentation out there.

We have 3 email addresses and on one of them (home email), we are unable to send emails using a remote server. That is why the last time, we were away from home, we have a Gmail account. We also have an address to iCloud.
We receive emails for all 3 email accounts but when I reply to the sender after receiving an email from the home address and I want to meet with our Gmail account, it is not available as an option
The only way we can do this is to disable the e-mail to iCloud.
Missing something?
You should be able to change the address 'from', which changes the outgoing mail server, on any outgoing e-mail.
Once you tap the forward or reply, tap on the address "from". Tap it again, and a list of all configured e-mail addresses should appear with a check mark next to "selected". Change to any email address you want your message 'from '.
Each account has its own outgoing mail server. Addresses gmail will use the outgoing Gmail server, and iCloud addresses will use the server outgoing from iCloud.
No need to disable anything.

I have a question regarding windows mail. I was send and receive mail with no problems until last Thursday. I can still receive mail, but I can not send. My email is with bellsouth.net and comes in my computer through windows Messaging. I spent an hour and a half on the phone with bellsouth, and they say that the problem is with my windows mail. I tried to use a restore date, and that did not help either. I will post a copy of this message, as I keep getting. Your server suddenly put an end to the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Object 't', counts: 'mail.bellsouth.net', server: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800CCC0F thanks for any help.Sometimes, WinMail settings get screwed up and you must remove the account and then add it back back. Make sure first that the antivirus software not interfere (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3). Delete your account completely, then close WinMail. Then compact and repair the database of WinMail (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/). Add your account to mail back once again, and then make sure you have the correct settings under Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Servers and | Advanced to what AT & T Specifies to WinMail (or OE). Then see if it works.

iCloud in app Mail and calendar in Windows 8 account
Hello!
I was wondering...
Is it possible to connect my iCloud account for mail and calendar app in Windows 8?Thank you!
Followed the instructions and still does not work. Wanted to try TLS with the outgoing SMTP server but TLS option is not available. (I had the similar problem with my email Android phone application, I have to use TLS to retrieve messages from iCloud to work.) "But, TLS is not available on Windows 8 Mail app.)"
I had the same problem, but I just fixed it:
At first, I think that you don't need the iCloud-Panel. Just enter server from Apple as described here, information in settings--> account of your mail app: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
After that, your inbox should already work! But in my Situation, I was not able to send mails from my Apple-Mail account. To resolve this problem, I played a bit with the boxes about Athentification settings:
The first area after the Mail-Server address out as something like "Server requires SSL" must be unchecked (!)
The second area referred to as something like 'Server requires athentification' you have to check (!)
After that, your Apple account should work in the application Mail in Windows 8!
Good luck! ;)

Mail and gmail don't agree in the Sierra, once again.
I had resolved all the gmail against messaging problems in El Capitan, but after upgrading to Sierra problems are back.
When I write and send an e-mail message, I find myself with a project in gmail attached to the messages thread which is waiting, despite having sent in Mail. The message is sent, but it remains as a draft in gmail. If I delete those, I'm deleting my copy of the message sent in gmail, but if I send them from gmail I'll send the same e-mail twice.
Any who see other related issues with Mail and gmail to disagree again?
I noticed that they have changed the settings in mail preferences you must specifically choose folder where you want to that mail to store drafts in. I have changed (back) to save them locally, which is always annoying, but I hope it will help with future messages, but what about all these projects message already sent? If I remove them, gmail sync sent versions of mail or delete?
How did the years and years pass, and Apple can't do gmail and work well together? Is not gmail so widely used they would have fixed this now?
I have problem with my IMAP accounts additional air currents. I suggest that you create a new user to test.
Try to set up a test account, see if the problem is global, or just linked to your account.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.
Switch to the new user by logging incoming/outgoing or use the fast user switching.
You can skip signature with your Apple ID, unless you test iCloud Mail.
By default only the applications Apple will be in the dock in the new user. Go to Applications to open other apps, that you can test.
If you see the same question in the new user, report it to the comments of the Apple in order to be connected and put in the queue to be fixed.

e-mail account mail and bt Mac
Story: I have been a customer of BT to * using the mail to send and receive mail for 10 years and more. Joined infinity bt jan 2016 everything is ok with mac bad BT account (os10.11.6). Then early August outward mail could not be sent obstruction in a box for 24 hours.
Consulted help bt, told me that they did not have third-party software (gmail account successfully performed with third-party mac mail on my macbook pro) and it is a problem to apple and I need to check their software engineer recommended for sorting.
Asked this question to bt and still waiting for answer "can you answer why I got the service for the past 10 years, using an account in mac mail and mal.wolf@btinternet, but now I can not yet send email from mac e-mail?"
My question to the community is the number of mac users are there in a frustrating similar post I am?
And Apple once for all is a problem with mac mail as bt say and is there a solution/s?
I'm holding out to feel like a tennis ball to the middle of two players please!
< personal information under the direction of the host >
Although all the settings of the server are correct, then Apple Mail will work with any email account. It's just an email such as MS Outlook or Thunderbird client. I use Apple Mail with various providers including Virgin Media without problem. It would be good to check your account settings, just in case BT have tweaked then because you added last.
Mail > Preferences > accounts > account-BT
It shouldn't matter that you are currently using BT infinite because it's just the name of the router they provide.
IMAP
Mail server incoming: mail.btinternet.com
Port: 993 (this must be completed automatically if you check SSL encryption)
SSL encryption: enabled (but not STARTTLS)
User name: your e-mail address, including the part of @btinternet.com or @btopenworld.com
Password: your password btinternet
Root folder path:
Folder separator:. (full stop)
Please, do NOT "secure password authentication" (SPA). It is not necessary when using SSL encryption and will not work.
If your IMAP client support, we recommend that you also set the following folders:
- Trash
- Sent items
- Air currents
SMTP
Mail server outgoing: mail.btinternet.com
Port: 465 (this cannot be filled on selection of SSL, so you'll need to check it out)
SSL encryption: enabled (but not STARTTLS)
Authentication: PLAIN
User name: your e-mail address, including the part of @btinternet.com or @btopenworld.com
Password: your password btinternet

Can someone tell me what exactly the difference between iCloud and iCloud drive.
On both you can store files, records and photos, but why use one over the other, or maybe both.
Thank you for answering,
Marja
(Sort of) See the difference is to connect to https://www.icloud.com
ICloud is not in iCloud drive information includes Mail, Contacts, calendar, Photos, Notes, reminders, etc. iCloud Drive is a separate app or a section in iCloud.
It is possible to transfer the photos to iCloud by car, but they won't be in the Photos app iCloud.com and not integral to the Photos on your Mac or iPhone app. To do this, you do not want to use iCloud photo library: iCloud photo library - Apple Support
If you save any iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) devices that are part of iCloud, but is not available by connecting to https://www.icloud.com/
For me, this isn't a case of 'one on one' about iCloud and iCloud Drive, it's both.

delete, record mx, mail, and gmail
I'm helping a friend with a mac and I do not have a mac or have much knowledge on how to use one. Problem of my friend is that she created her [email protected] address is linked to a [email protected] account, so that she could use google groups. His gmail account finally be filled with all the messages, she got on her address @ mac.com or icloud.com. She has deleted the account gmail, a long time ago, and now, whenever someone sends her an e-mail message, the sender receives an email saying that the gmail account does not exist. This causes the sender to think that she never received the message. I watched the bounced message and it seems that there may be an mx record in his address @ mac.com. She gets her email fine, but shippers always get the bounced message. She lives in another city, but it will make me stop Saturday with his mac. I'll try to fix it for him, but need help how to access his accounts mac.com or icloud.com on the server configuration and exactly what to change.
Try to go to iCloud.com and connect with his Apple ID. Then select Mail and click on the gear down to the left, then select Preferences. On the general tab, under redirection, uncheck all boxes.
