When my Mac is on battery it goes to sleep very soon. How do I change the timing of this? I've looked all around system preferences and I can't seem to find a setting for this. the closest I can find is to decide if I should have to reenter my password when waking.
Thanks.
Kevin

You'll be locked in no matter which one of the big providers you go with. Remember, though, that iCloud is not specific to Apple devices. Sure, it's easiest to set up on them, but in the end it's just a basic IMAP email provider, so you can set it up on any IMAP-capable mail client you want, on any platform.

Hi,

You might find this crazy, but switch to Microsoft's email at <http://outlook.com>outlook.com. It's what I use, and I really like it a lot. It supports Exchange ActiveSync, which is the absolute best protocol to support, IMO. It also supports IMAP and I think POP3, but don't quote me on that. I would never choose to get locked in to iCloud, just because I run many different OS's. If you don't, iCloud may be fine. Just my $0.02.

Thanks,
Blake

Subject: Re: Mail Apps

My main problem is indeed the Imap. I had a rather lively discussion
about the issues on this list a while back. I managed to converse with
Google and Apple, and it was fixed for a while, but now no matter what
I do e-mails either 1) Don't arrive or show up on time, 2) Aren't sent
immediately (even with refresh), or 3) Are unceremoniously dumped into
my Archives folder, even though I went through the process to make
this not happen under the imap settings for Gmail on their website.
I'll probably eventually switch to my iCloud e-mail address, but at
this point it seems like an enormous hastle to switch everything over,
and could be rather lengthy especially as I am in a position of having
to e-mail back and forth with possible employers and other companies.
If you know of a way to fix the Gmail issue, I'd be open to anything,
really. I like the way Apple Mail interacts with iCloud accounts, but
the system Gmail uses for Imap totally screws Apple Mail up. I know
this also used to work in Mountain Lion to my knowledge, but since the
update to Mavericks it's been extremely intermittent. I use Gmail fine
on my iOS devices as well.
Thanks, Jason -- I'll look into those.

To my knowledge, there is
not much in the way of accessible mail clients for OS X aside from the
default one.

There is Mutt, of course, and presumably Alpine as well as Emacs-based mail
readers such as Gnus and VM. I don't know whether Mozilla Thunderbird is
accessible under OS X.
