Gmail Help

Say, please help me with instructions on how to set up Google Maps Live Location on an iPhone. It’s an older model.
A Gmail account has been set up. When trying to install Google Maps, it’s asking for the password for the “iCloud” email address ?? and we have lost this password. How do we reset this? I presume once we have downloaded Google Maps, we would be able to easily navigate to Live Location from within Google Maps App. Kindly advise how we can download this and get past / reset the security on the iphone.

Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2019 in Miami

The Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2019 will be held at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Resort on October 13–16, 2019, and it promises to be the must-attend event for IT infrastructure managers, CIOs, service providers, value-added resellers, ISVs, and developers.

Does anyone know if there are any Gmail extensions that auto delete specific emails from specific senders after they have been read and sat for say 3-5 days in my inbox.....automatically. Like a rule sort of but runs to check the inbox for say a daily alert.
Here is an example I get a daily balance from my Wells Fargo accounts that say what my balance is or if there has been any activity.
is there a feature or extension that will look at emails from Wells Fargo that are either opened and sat in inbox for 3 or more days and delete them automatically.
Or If I watch the TV show Frontline on PBS and it tells me that a show is airing that night.
These kinds of emails are great. I just forget to delete many like them and they build up.
Also I noticed that some businesses or marketing emails from companies constantly send messages I do not need. EVEN AFTER SETTING THEM TO UNSUBSCRIBE OR PREFERENCES IN THE PROFILES THAT THEY BUILD...!
Is there a way to manage all that excess junk crap etc that just builds up.

I want to get to a place where all my emails I handled every day had a place for completed archived deleted or work still in progress. The big thing is to clean up else my Tiny Mind will get overloaded with junk and I will develop a brain fog I cannot navigate. Any good tools or extensions for gmail that do that. Primarily the auto delete part?

What software is best for downloading gmail to my local pc/drive? At one time, I downloaded with Systools gmail downloader, but I've had the account since 2008 and it has grown so much that I pay $15/year for 100GB of storage. I read that gmail downloader doesn't work with paid gmail accounts, only the free ones. I downloaded the latest version and tested it in demo mode.....working with the onsite tech, I kept getting "invalid credentials".

I'm also uncomfortable with sharing my login with another party, even though they say they don't store the info. I have tons of junk mail, so if I POP the account to Outlook or a local client, it will probably crash. Imap only downloads the headers, as far as I know.

What about GmailVault.org? Please help with this, it is a big headache.I have WIndows 10, chrome browser.

Outlook 2010 IMAP to Gmail not working...
I set Outlook 2010 IMAP to Gmail March 1 2018 for a client....so just one year old...
System was working perfectly until about 3 days ago...we do not know why it stopped...

Went thru the various attempts to connect to Gmail...would not connect...bad pw...
1. I changed the pw in Gmail webmail...logged out and logged back in with new pw...I have a known good pw...
2. Attempted to log in again...I would get error message "email server rejected your login...
3. I changed IMAP and SMTP ports...SSL/TLS and various combinations...nothing is working...
4. Ran scanpst and reported minor errors...repaired them...
5. Double checked Gmail settings and IMAP is ON....logged out and back in with new pw and it works...pw is good...
6. Double checked Outlook settings...everything matches up...double checked username spelling...double checked everything...
7.Googled "Outlook 2010 not pop gmail"...read various responses...nada...
8.Found this link https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha ....went thru that process...nada...
9. Deleted email account in Outlook thinking profile is corrupted...
10. Now I cannot recreat the account in Outlook because Outlook will not connect up with Gmail...
11. Logged into Gmail webmail and turned IMAP off and turned POP on...
11. Tried to recreate the account but this time with POP settings rather than IMAP...no joy...

I have no idea what is going on...something is wrong within …

Is there a way (without adding a gsuite account to Outlook) so that calendar appoints created within Outlook under a non GSuite account can replicate and showup in Google Calendar? I don't know if google calendar can be synced to Outlook but not bidirectional?

I know this seems like a crazy question but I am being asked if its done.

So to try and clear this up domainnamea.com is currently configured in Outlook as a profile. The user wants to add calendar appointments and have them sync to her gsuite calendar without having anything from her gmail calendar replicate back to her outlook calendar kinda one way. So if she adds an entry in Outlooks Calendar it appears on her google calendar but nothing added on Googles calendar appears in her outlook calendar...

I don't think this can be done but I thought I would check.

I have a gsuite account with about 10 users, I need to migrate them to 365.

My issue is all the uses are travelling and only use these accounts very periodically, I am trying to log into their accounts to add application access so I can connect o365 for the migration. I keep coming up with the verification for individuals mobiles, emails etc as I have not logged on from this location / device to these accounts before.

I know why it is there but I have all their user credentials as well as gsuite admin access, the users are aware of this and I am fine with them being alerted, however doing these one by one and tracking users down will take weeks, is there a way I can override the verification settings to say add them all to my phone while I do the migration.

ITanks in advance

Hi,

We are using web server to send emails to different users (gmail/hotmail/yahoo and other domains). Email related to daily stock exchange rate.
Everything is working fine except few (20 out of 150) gmail user didn't receive email and we received below NDR.
Domain (exacmple: abc.com.au) is configure on Exchange server 2016. When we send those emails via exchange server we didn't face any issue but when sending via web server we received below NDR.

More Information:
Exchange server have public IP and WebServer server also have public IP. Both servers are not same network. Exchange server in office and Web server on cloud {dedicated server (VPS)}. Please review the SPF record is fine? Kindly review the attach image from mxtoolbox related to SPF record.

v=spf1 ip4:exchange public IP/27 ip4:webserver public IP mx:abc.com.au ~all

Note:
I replace the exchange public IP, Same with Webserver public IP and domain name with abc.com.au

I have a customer with a mail domain running with Google Mail called DOMAIN.DK.
All of these users access their mails through web mail.
My customer wants to migrate to Office365 Exchange.
Is there a way to extract all users mailbox from GMAIL and upload it to Office365 directly without having to sync the mailboxes to a pc with Outlook and make pst files from here?

Is it possible to access the old gmails after migrating to Office365 through another domain name?

Gmail > Archived emails

I had some emails selected in Gmail and I accidenly hit archive. How do I get all the messages back into my inbox?

13 Comments

A user's gmail account in our Gsuite sends a spam message at the same time every day.

At 8:20am every morning an email is sent from the account to eight internal users @mydomain.com

The body of the message is empty and the title is 'jknkljn'.

I initially thought it was spoofing but I have SPF, DKIM and DMARC entries in my DNS. The emails also appear in Gmail 'Sent'.

I have change passwords and 2 step verification enabled.

And anti-virus scanned both clients.

Any help would be greatly appreciated?

Folks,
For years I've been using bellsouth.net to host my emails. Today I have come to HATE bellsouth.net. I have .pst files and .ost (?) files.
I have built up a large library of emails that I refer to from time to time. I also am using Outlook 2016.
I have three needs.
First I want to convert my .ost format to .pst format.
Next I would like to export the new pst file to a gmail account I already have.
Finally, I would continue to use Outlook.

I am not seeking a solutions for all three in this question, but would like to know which of these can be done.

SPF Configuration Question

Allot of received emails are being spoofed from Gmail and sent emails to Gmail ending up in recipients spam folder. Due to this I want to confirm SPF records are correct.

I'm referencing these two articles.

The first one is from Google itself
http://www.openspf.org/Introduction

The second from
https://www.dmarcanalyzer.com/spf/how-to-create-an-spf-txt-record/

I want to make sure my clients sending to Gmail are not bounced back or going to the Gmail recipients spam. I also want to decrease the amount of spoofed emails coming from Gmail.

I created the following SPF record:
v=spf1 mx a:mail.domain.com include:aspmx.googlemail.com -all
My understanding is this points to our IP address on record that the A MAIL record points to, our MX record. Also allows communication to googlemail.com and the -all prevents any other IP's to be blocked. Am I correct on this assumption?

I also have a smart host configured using Proofpoint (Spam filter) so when I go to MXToolbox it doesn't show my servers IP address rather it shows Proofpoints. Should I include these IP addresses in the SPF record?

Active Protection takes the fight to cryptojacking

LVL 2

While there were several headline-grabbing ransomware attacks during in 2017, another big threat started appearing at the same time that didn’t get the same coverage – illicit cryptomining.

When trying to sync a gmail account to the windows 10 mail app (the default one that comes with the OS), we continually receive this error:

SOMETHING WENT WRONG
We're sorry, but we were unable to do that.

Error code: 0x8000000b

We have already allowed less secure connections in security settings and enabled Imap in gmail.

We have setup multiple other emails on other machines with no trouble using the same methods.

I have a client that has their own domain using GSuite based email. Their customers are receiving a lot of spoofed (not hacked) emails from one of the users. The usual spam/infection type of email like "here is your invoice" which the customers almost open but think better of it.

The users system is clean, no infections, usual protections, etc.

Any way to reduce or prevent this problem from happening? It seems to only be happening to this one user and it comes in waves...nothing for a month or two and then an onslaught of emails to the people in the users address book.

Thoughts?

Thanks.

My MS Outlook 2019 connected to Gmail as an IMAP/SMTP type.

How do I stop receiving product ads from "Services" by creating a rule in MS Outlook to delete anything that comes into my mailbox with the word "Services in the beginning of the email address .

I have done my best to prevent Gmail form sending me product ads by opting out of all ads from Google. After all, if I need something I can just go to the web and search for something.

I have created rules in MS Outlook 2019 that state if the sender's email address contains the word "Services" and it is sent directly to "my email address" "Delete it"
However, day-after-day it comes back again.

I must have 50 of these rules stated for all different product ads.
I also unsubscribe to each product ad before I create the rule.

I am not sure what I am doing incorrectly. There must be a better way.

Any help will be appreciated

For a couple of weeks I am having an issue with out exchange 2013 servers.

we have two exchange 2013 CAS servers and two Exchange 2013 mailbox servers. email to the internet is routed through cisco IronPort located in the DMZ. emails to the partner domains is routed directly through wan links and there are connectors for the partner domains.

we are receiving complaints from users that mails are not being delivered from partners domain to out domain and the some users have provided evidence of that. but when we test emails seems to be going but with some delay. it looks like emails with attachments are having issues more that emails without attachments. some emails are missing and not all mails.

there seems to be some problem now since a few days that emails sent to Hotmail are going in spam and some times emails to domains like Gmail are not being delivered (Authentication errors).

there has been no change from our side and now we are having all these issues.

as far as the dns name registration is concerned we have mx records configured only without spf records and it has been like this since the beginning. and we had no issues. fixing the spf records is gonna take time as we have to go through the HO.

I have this issue and lots of tickets related to these issues. any suggestions highly appreciated.
