My All Inboxes has disappeared from Mail - how to get it back, and manage Favourites

If you are a Mac Mail user who has more than one Mail account, you will hopefully make good use of the All Inboxes option in the Favourites section of the sidebar - allowing you to see all incoming mail in one place, or see each Inbox individually underneath the All Inboxes heading.

But what if this All Inboxes disappears - or if you've never had it? How do you enable (or re-enable) this?

Setting up an email signature in Mail and Outlook apps - on iPhone, iPad, Mac or Windows

I have recently had to assist a couple of clients with setting up email signatures for their mail app. One client used Mac Mail, and the other used Outlook on Windows.

Have you set up your own signature? An email signature provides a standard 'sign-off' for your emails - that perhaps just includes your name and (maybe) a phone number, or may include your business and contact details as well.

The image above shows what mine looks like (at top left). It can even includes a GIF, which is an animated picture/very short video. The logo picture in mine cycles through two different versions of the wording.

How to make the icons in Mac Mail easier to see

A change that came to Mac's mail in macOS Big Sur has been a source of frustration to more than one iTandCoffee client.

The icons along the top are are now smaller and fainter than they used to be, which can really be a problem for anyone with eyesight issues.

A particular iTandCoffee client asked me this week if there was anything she could do the improve the visibility of the bar of icons. Here is what I suggested - and she has just let me know that the has made a very big difference for her.

How to adjust text, icon and image sizes in Mail and other places on Mac

For the Mail app in particular, I am often asked if there is a way to change the font size of the text.

The answer is 'yes', and there are three places that such a change can be made - and one in particular will apply to any 'sidebars' that you are viewing in some of Apple's standard apps - Finder, Mail, Notes and News

Setting up an email signature on the Mac - for both Mail and Outlook

In a separate article, we cover how to set up an email signature in Outlook and Mail on the iPad and iPhone. (Here is that article.)

These signatures must be set up on each device - including your Mac. (The signatures do not sync - they must be separately set up per device.)

Here's how to set up and customise your signature on the Mac, and how to ensure that the signature appears every time you create a new email or reply to an email.

What to do when your list of mailboxes disappears in Mac Mail

A client called on June 30, in quite a panic because all her Mac Mail mailboxes containing client emails and her expenses emails had disappeared.

She was worried that she had somehow deleted them.

Luckily, this was not the case. After remotely accessing her Mac to check just what had happened, we were able to re-instate the mailboxes with a single click!

Finding your lost mailboxes

When this client looked at the area where she normally saw her mailboxes, there was no longer a list shown under 'iCloud' (as indicate in the below example).

The solution was simple. We hovered the mouse pointer over the word iCloud'. As we did this, the word Show appeared. This is indicated in the below screen.

Clicking Show then expanded out the content of her iCloud mail, revealing all of the 'lost' mailboxes. Phew!
