HijackGMH Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Can someone please remind me how to find the incoming and outgoing e-mail file directories on a Mac OS? Long ago, I set up my games with desktop links to start each one. When my opponent sent me a file, I deposited it in the incoming folder from a link I saved for each game, in Finder. Last night, in an unthinking blur of foolish efficiency, I decided to re-name those Finder links to more accurately describe the games. Now the games cannot find the incoming file folders!?! I dimly recall some magic in originally locating these folders, but I can't remember just how to do it? Something about hidden files?

herr_oberst Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 <userHome>/Library/Mail is the base root. Depending on folders in your Mail app, I have V2 and V4 folders. V2 is basically empty, V4 has UUID named folders under there... which is which I don't know at the moment, but I have multiple email accounts that I aggregate in the Mail app. To suss those IDs out, sending an email to one account, then checking in Finder to see which folder got updated _should_ let me figure out which account ties to which UUID. That might get you started... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
