Apple Mail

[Iomega01]

I just recently purchased my first Mac last Thursday. At the same time I got .mac.

I'm using the Mail application that was included and just setup an alias in .mac.

With the web-based email, when sending an email, I can choose which alias I want it to send from. But from the Mail application on the Mac, I don't see an option for this. Is alias only offered on the web-based? or am I missing something? Thanks.

go into pref in mail and then composing there is a send as drop down box there.

job done

Or just when you click to create a new e-mail message under the subject field is a drop down box showing all your e-mail accounts allowing you to pick which one sends the e-mail. Picture below shows what I mean .

If that doesn't work, and you're talking about multiple identities under a single .Mac account, try this hint:

not a bad way of doing it if you want to do regular e-mails with aliases

Cool... I got it working. It just need to be restarted. Thanks.
