OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Mail Acknowledgment Of Receipt
Mar 2, 2012
How to generate an acknowledgment of receipt with MAC mail (Snow Leopard)? Some times it is very important not to contact a person (that is at the moment not available), but to know if he has got or read the mail !!!
Other mail programmes like Thunderbird allow me to request a read receipt so that I know the email has been received and read. I connot find this useful function in Apple's Mail. Am I just missing it?
Does anyone know of an easy method to receive a return e-mail receipt using Apple Mail and a .Mac/.Me account. I know that in Windows you can use Outlook to receive/request a return receipt when the receiver opens the e-mail. I believe that even using Microsoft Office Entourage '08 would work as well but I really want to stay all Apple applications if at all possible
I've searched this issue online, and it seems Mac Mail doesn't let you confirm that an email has been received. Is this true, there is absolutely no way to do this?
After clicking on 'get mail' the download bar shows activity but no mail is downloaded to the inbox. Checked to see if for some reason mail is being downloaded to another box but not so.I know that mail is being sent because I can receive it on my iphone under same email address.Email was working ok until yesterday when this started happening. Not sure what to check or how to correct.
I have a rule that copies an email to the ON MY MAC and then another that MOVES TO A FOLDER in Mobileme. They are in this order. The problem is when I quit Mail the Folder I am copying to is changed to the Mobileme folder so I end up with a duplicate. It doesn't change until Mail is quit. The other odd part, there one arragement like this that did savef at some point and works as expected.Â
I have tried having both of these rules combined into 1 and have the same results.
When I try to change the settings for my Mail app, in Snow Leopard, the incoming mail settings are greyed out. What do I do to be able to change these?Â
(I had a problem, with my Mail account, which a consultant fixed for me on my laptop. But I cannot remember what he did to access the incoming mail server preferences, and make the changes, because on my desktop these are still greyed out.)
Info: MacPro, MacBook Pro, ipods, Mac OS X (10.6.2)
One IMAP account is intermittently losing all mail in inbox except for one message. After doing opening program the receive wheel spins for a long time, but at this point there are only 170 emails in the inbox because we moved all the rest to the on my mac inbox to try to solve this porblem. There are two accounts, both from the same provider, but one of them takes a long time to receive new mail.  The wheel spins for a long time - each time it gets mail.Â
Several times after finishing receive cycle, all the mail that was in the inbox disappears, except for one. I was able to get the emails to retrn by going into settings>accounts> and changing a random setting and then changing it back the way it was. All settings appear to be correct and match the other other account that is working correctly.Â
I just installed some routine updates for my Mac and now I can't receive any mail in my apple mail program. It is version 4.5 and I am using a mobile me account. I have never had any problems before and obviously very annoyed. I know I can access it view the web but I like apple mail. I am able to send.
Since updating to Snow Leopard 10.6.1 Mail.app has been unable to retieve IMAP mail from my OS X Leopard 10.5.x server running the standard cyrusd. Does anybody have any clues? Mail just sits there syncing the mailbox forever, it never stops. If I turn on logging to file, it just continuously FETCHes from IMAP and never ends. It's driving me mad. My iphone can get the IMAP mail from the same server absolutely fine. I added the mail account to a new OS X Snow Leopard user account, and that also failed to get anywhere. So its not corrupted data on my MBP. It doesn't appear to be corrupted data on the OS X server either, as the iPhone works.
My friend wants Exchange support on mail but is on Leopard. I don't completely feel comfortable installing Snow Leopard on their machine because they don't have a backup, so I was wondering for my peace of mind before tomorrow if anybody had any experience with installing Mail from the Snow Leopard install disc onto Leopard.
I have about ten accounts that i am managing via imap in mail. does anyone know why there is no SENT MAIL in the SENT section of the left hand pane? I am selecting the SENT item and I am selecting /each/ individual box and there is no mail. i need to find one to copy a lengthy email to send it to someone else.
have i mixed up a setting somewhere and if so how do i find the previously sent mail?
I use Snow Leopard. When I check Mail i get an error message: You can't use this version of the application Mail with this version of Mac OS X. You have Mail 3.6. I installed Snow Leopard and thought that would include later versions of Mail. How do I get updte versions of Mail?
I just recently purchased a macbook pro and snow leopard. How do you sync the mail app similar to a ackberry. When i delete mail from mail, its still in my server and vice versa.
I upgraded to Snow Leopard and now it keeps launching Mail. I am getting along fine with Entourage so I don't want to run Mail. How do I turn this off so Mail doesn't keep popping up and asking me to set up an account?
Just installed Snow two days ago. Runs great, so far. As of today, when I try to send mail from Mac Mail, something strange happens every so often.
I get a message saying it can't send the message because the SMTP options have not been set. They are in fact set, and Mail has been functioning normally until installing Snow.
Anyone having this problem, and how did you fix? All my server settings are in place so I'm not sure what else to change.
for some reason, I can no longer delete email in apple mail (v4.5). I can drag it over to the Trash folder, but when I simply click delete, it says a sub-folder within my deleted mail folder "does not allow messages to be moved to it."Â Interestingly there are also two sub-folders within that folder - "on my mac" and the name of my mail account.
