I believe that the most effective way to accomplish this is in the "Mailbox" menu. Choose "Take all accounts offline" and you should be set. Let me know if it isn't what you want.

iOS Mail app doesn't function like you are hoping it will unfortunately. The best suggestion I have is to add this mail account twice in iOS Settings, once using each email address you prefer it to have.

For syncing with iCloud you need to choose folder "Deleted Messages" on your iPhone to be default for the Deleted Mailbox. Otherwise it will create a new Folder on the server called TRASH and the emails you delete on your iPhone will in mail on your computer only be seen in this folder and not in the general Trash.

Try deleting the rule and creating a new one. Mail seems to randomly corrupt things on even the most well-maintained machines, the past few OS iterations. Passwords disappear. Then there is the step of trashing your Mail preferences, as preference files do get corrupt.

Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced There is an option called "Keep copies of messages for offline viewing" If you have that set to All messages and their attachments, then Mail will download your entire Gmail archive, which could be several GB. I suggest setting that to All messages but omit attachments, then quitting Mail, then deleting ...

I just had a similar problem and solved it by going to: System Preferences > Java > Security and set the security level down to medium. However I don't find this a very satisfying solution and I wonder why Mail requires Java to display images... Update: I assume it actually has nothing to do with Java itself but in some way with the plug-in ...

The only way that I know how to accomplish this is to use Mailplane which is a commercial Mac app for using Gmail's web interface. It has its own "Mail PDF with Mailplane" service which comes as part of the app: There's no way that I know of to automate the process of attaching a PDF (or any other file) to Gmail through a web browser. You're going to ...

I believe you can create a template for a new email (which would include you signature) and then leave signatures off everywhere else by setting our signature to none. The template can be a draft message or a sent message. Either way you have the option of sending them again, which makes them de facto templates.

The entries have to be on a single line. If you use /etc/crontab, the sixth field has to be the username: 0 9,17 * * * yourusername osascript ~/Documents/disablemail.scpt You can edit the user's crontab with crontab -e (or EDITOR=pico crontab -e).

Cron was replaced by launchd a while back. If you're just getting started with this project, you might want to do it in launchd.

There are two factors that are combining to dredge up the past: Apple's Mail app will try to link all messages according so several criteria. Gmail has designed a system to prevent the majority of people from ever deleting mail messages. They do this by presenting an Inbox view that is a subset of the All Messages store and deleting a message from the ...

Per this KB article Deleting IMAP messages, "If you want to delete a message from all folders, move it to the [Gmail]/Trash folder." If you don't move them to the Trash folder, they will just be removed from the currently selected folder (tag) on the server, and put into All Mail (Archived). So if you go into Prefereces...->Accounts->Gmail ...

Apple's mail will get all the messages by design. There isn't a setting to tell it to stop after a certain volume of downloaded content or some message count or attachment count. You'll find that altering the server settings if you can will be the only way to change the volume or number of messages. Exchange has a setting to limit the number of messages ...

Google have some documentation about how to set up Gmail in Apple Mail here: perhaps that page might help you. They suggest going for IMAP over POP (my emphasis below): Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing ...

In short, you don't. Calendar needs mail to send and receive appointments. Have you tried simply telling Calendar to not use Mail for automatically retrieving CalDAV appointment requests via Mail? Wanting to use Calendar for OS X implies you must use Apple's Mail for CalDAV appointment invitations as things stand today on Mountain Lion. You could either ...

Calendar invitations are delivered via email, so perhaps Mail app is preparing things for you to "accept, tentative, or decline" the invitations as part of the routine processing of a mail message that gets diverted from the inbox and places in another application (Calendar in this case, or iCal for those on Lion and earlier). You could also just configure ...

iPhone uses the 'modern' Exchange ActiveSync (which is a mobile-only protocol) to sync with Hotmail, which explains why read emails are synced to Hotmail.com. The only other protocol Hotmail/Outlook.com supports is POP. Unfortunately they do not support IMAP, so POP is as good as you're going to get.

I had a similar issue at one point. Try clicking the save button on the top-right corner of the email and designate where to save the files. Then open the file through finder (instead of just clicking on the pdf within the email). This worked for me.

It also comes in handy when using applescript to move mail from one mail box to another or when deleting mail. As an example, if you write an Applescript program to delete the mail in your SPAM folder, that will seem to work fine. On your Mac, the deleted messages no longer appear in the Spam folder, but do appear in the trash folder. But if you run that ...
