Email

Setting up email aliases in Mac Mail

Step 1

Open the Mail application.

Step 2

Select “Preferences” from the “Mail” menu in the upper-left corner of the application window.

Step 3

Click the name of the Mail account where you want to add aliases. If you only have one account set up, it will select itself automatically.

Step 4

Click in the “Email Address” box on the Account Information screen. Move your cursor to the end of the current contents.

Step 5

Type a comma, then add the alias you want this account to have. Repeat for additional aliases.

Step 6

Click the red “X” button button in the upper-left of the window to exit the Preferences. When prompted, click “Save” to save the changes you made.

Step 7

Click the “New Message” button in the Mail window. In the “From” field, a drop-down menu appears that lists all the email addresses available to this account, including the new aliases you added. Select one of them, and the message will send from that alias address instead of your Mac Mail account address.

thunderbird repair folder

My Thunderbird Inbox is full of gibberish

Sometimes Thunderbird’s indexes get scrambled and you need to reindex the email database.

Try using the repair folder option on the Inbox.

1. Right click on the Inbox and select Properties

thunderbird inbox properties
Select Properties from drop down menu

2. Under Properties there should be a Repair Folder button

thunderbird inbox properties
Select Properties from drop down menu

Hopefully that should sort it out.

Heartbleed, what is it and will it break my website?

Heartbleed is a security vulnerability found on many web servers.  It is due to a bad coding in a program called OpenSSL. OpenSSL is used by many websites to provide a secure connection between the website and the web browser.

We have tested all our servers and they are free of the  Heartbleed vulnerability.  These checks  involved logging into each server and checking for the vulnerable code.

If you are concerned that Heartbleed may effect your website, you can test your site at http://filippo.io/Heartbleed/
