Help with icloud/syncing emails

Hi

 

I may be missing something really obvious here as I like to think I'm pretty good with technology and have been Mac based for the last 8 odd years so I'm used to the Apple setup etc. However, I'm having some difficulties getting things syncing across devices and wondered if anyone knew how to resolve this.

 

I have several different email addresses I use, my personal one and my work one, plus the standard icloud one you get when you create an icloud account. My personal email address is from my own domain name so is set up as an 'other' type of email account, my work email is Exchange Server type.

 

Across my iPhone, iPad, Mac and iCloud on the web the Exchange email address syncs perfectly. I can send/receive email from this account and if I delete a message/read a message/move a message to another folder etc it syncs automatically across all devices. With my own personal email, although I can read/delete/send emails from any device, they don't sync, in that I may read all my emails on my iPhone and then have to go through them again on my Mac and my iPad separately.

 

Also, when I log into iCloud on the web, the only emails visable are from my iCloud email address and this is all I can send emails from as well.

 

My personal email address is the one my Apple ID is set with.

 

Is anyone able to shed any light on this for me please as its extremely frustrating to have to keep going through my emails 3 times each day, and even more frustrating that my work email which is Microsoft based works better than my Apple Mail account!!

 

Many thanks

 

Jo

Extracting all email addresses contained in emails.

Canyou help me, I extracted "from" addresses with the following script:

 

--script begins

property theBoxes : {"mailbox1", "mailbox2", "mailbox3", "mailbox4", "mailbox5", "mailbox6", "mailbox7"}

 

on run

          set theMessages to {}

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theSpamFile to make new workbook

set theSheet to active sheet of theSpamFile

set formula of range "B1" of theSheet to "Subject"

set formula of range "A1" of theSheet to "From"

          end tell

          tell application "Mail"

set theRow to 2

get mailboxes

--set theMessages to messages of junk mailbox

repeat with aBox in theBoxes

set theMessages to theMessages & messages of mailbox aBox

end repeat

repeat with aMessage in theMessages

my SetFrom(sender of aMessage, theRow, theSheet)

my SetSubject(subject of aMessage, theRow, theSheet)

set theRow to theRow + 1

end repeat

end tell

 

end run

 

on SetFrom(theSender, theRow, theSheet)

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theRange to "A" & theRow

set formula of (range theRange) of theSheet to theSender

          end tell

end SetFrom

 

on SetSubject(theSubject, theRow, theSheet)

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theRange to "B" & theRow

set formula of range theRange of theSheet to theSubject

          end tell

end SetSubject

--script ends

 

Which worked very well.

 

I now want to extract all of the to, cc and BCC emails and changed the above script to:

 

--script begins

property theBoxes : {"RWG Archive", "NRW Archive", "Contacts#Newspaper List", "JOBS R", "JOBS N"}

 

on run

          set theMessages to {}

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theSpamFile to make new workbook

set theSheet to active sheet of theSpamFile

set formula of range "B1" of theSheet to "Subject"

set formula of range "A1" of theSheet to "Recipients"

          end tell

          tell application "Mail"

set theRow to 2

get mailboxes

--set theMessages to messages of junk mailbox

repeat with aBox in theBoxes

set theMessages to theMessages & messages of mailbox aBox

end repeat

repeat with aMessage in theMessages

my SetRecipients(recipients of aMessage, theRow, theSheet)

my SetSubject(subject of aMessage, theRow, theSheet)

set theRow to theRow + 1

end repeat

end tell

 

end run

 

on SetRecipients(theRecipients, theRow, theSheet)

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theRange to "A" & theRow

set formula of (range theRange) of theSheet to theRecipients

          end tell

end SetRecipients

 

on SetSubject(theSubject, theRow, theSheet)

          tell application "Microsoft Excel"

set theRange to "B" & theRow

set formula of range theRange of theSheet to theSubject

          end tell

end SetSubject

--script ends

 

It does not work, I get the following error:

 

error "Can’t make «class trcp» 1 of «class mssg» id 135522 of «class mbxp» \"RWG Archive\" of application \"Mail\" into the expected type." number -1700 from «class trcp» 1 of «class mssg» id 135522 of «class mbxp» "RWG Archive"

 

I am not good at this and would appreciate help to get TO, CC and BCC address.

 

Kind Regard
