In Mail Preferences I'm trying to set the default reader to Mail 5.2 but it keeps changing back to Outlook 14.1.4. How can I stop this happening. I updated to Lion yesterday and can't receive mail. Sending is OK but nothing incoming.
Info:
MacPro, Dual 2.8 Ghz Quad Core, 4 x 1.5TB HDs, 8GB RAM., Mac OS X (10.6.7), MacBook Pro, 2.6 Ghz, 500GB, 4GB RAM
After recently installing Lion, in Mail my [URL] email address does not work. I cannot receive mail to this address. Some messages sent from this address do not seem to go out, although they appear in the Sent mailbox. A dialogue box keeps asking for my MobileMe password but does not accept it.I know I'm using the correct PW (although it is old and may not conform to present requirements)
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 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.
I've tried the various fixes, including Java prefs, restarting mail and computer, re-installing Java....but still can't see the mail attachments. I send or receive. I get the "missing plug in" message...
I use gmail and have 288 messages to upload, but it gets stuck at email 20. Have gone to gmail.com to delete # 20 email, but the application is still getting stuck. It's also duplicating messages on Mail application.
For the last week I find that after sending an email with attachments that it remains in my draft box after sending. The mail shows up in the sent box, but it never get's deleted from the draft box until I resend it. This is happening on both my MBP and iMac. Both machines connect to iCloud for mail.
I just got my Mac last week and ever since then I haven't been able to send mail from one account. I can both receive and send from my gmail account. My EDU account can only receive mail, and not send it. I've tried resetting the information, and even deleted the account a few times. All of the servers and ports are exactly like the school website says they should be.
So I've had my macbook since last January but have never been able to get the mail program to function. i set up my email address in the program but have never gotten an email or been able to send one.
any ideas on how to get it working? I'd really like to not have to log on to yahoo every few hours.
I work with Safari, my provider is Free, my adresses are also Free. For two months I have been searching how to repair my mail boxes : I can send messages but I do not receive incoming mail.
I do not know whether this is a problem with Apple or with Free (who have not yet succeded in solviing my problem) .
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.8), Safari and Free
I am now experisenicng the following error message in Mail on my macbook. I am running Lion and it is updated but my icloud emails won't come in.
the following message appears:
"There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “iCloud” or try again.
The server returned the error: Mail was unable to connect to server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” using SSL on port 993. Verify that this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct."
I have checked the password and all other settings and they are all correct so I dont know why this is now suddenly happening.
