Email attachments file names removed

I have a new problem with Safari 2.0.4 running on my Powerbook G4. When I download an attachment from my Yahoo account, it strips the extension and file name from it. It shows up on the desktop as "secure download". I then have to rename the file with the proper extension for it to open up. I don't have this problem when using firefox or downloading the same file from hotmail while using Safari for that matter. Anybody with any thoughts on why this started to happen all of a sudden? It's a real pain to have to rename all of the files I download.

Roy,
Ijust checked my console log and found the following message when I went to Yahoo Mail from MyYahoo. I'll let others to figure out what it means:
Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL http://us.f564.mail.yahoo.com/ym/login?.rand=5topbgd32k2al from frame with URL http://view.atdmt.com/CNT/iview/yhxxxatc0010000006cnt/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/?time=1190083704254740&click=http://us.ard.yahoo.com/SIG=12i29j62j/M=568923.11346069.11878097.1414694/D=mail/S=150500014:LREC/Y=YAHOO/EXP=1190090904/A=4854426/R=0/*. Domains must match.
When I do the same with Firefox, I don't get those messages.

Email attachment file names

I have a sender mail adapter that picks up emails with file attachments from a mail box using the IMAP transport protocol.
The mail adapter passes processing onto the PayloadSwapBean and then onto a customised module that processes the file attachment (a CSV file).
When I use the messaging system i.e. http://xiserver:port/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp
I can see that Content-Type includes the attachment's file name:-
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;name="INV_5016888091848_20060912_00001.csv"
Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="MailMessage.bin"
Content-Description: MailMessage
In my customised module I would like to pick up this file name so that it can be stored in a database table. I have attempted to pick up this file name from the payload using the "getContentType" method of the "XMLPayload" class but this only returns "application/octet-stream" and does not include the file name.
Does anyone know how I can get hold of the above file name using the Adapter Framework API? Or, alternatively, by some other method/approach.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Please check for Adapter -Specific Message Attributes
->To store adapter attributes in the message header of the XI message, set the Use Adapter-Specific Message Attributes indicator.
The following attributes are added to the XI message header if the sender makes them available, and if you choose Variable Transport Binding.
To transfer further header fields, set the relevant indicator. You can then store the following attributes and their values in the XI message header:
You can set the details in header with the file names you required like this Variable Header-> XHeaderName1

Email PDF file name issue via output determination - order confirmation etc

I can email pdf files via output determination. Unfortunately the file name is same as sapscript name. How do I change it to the name I want for example document number.
Thanks,
Jai

Hi Jaideep,
You can change the mail title at Output determination.
T/code NACE--> Application > Outputtype> Select O/P --> select Mail title and texts --> specify your text( with language) in "title" .
Whenever Script send via e-mail the text you have entered will apear as mail title.
Hope this may help you.

Burst by email - specify file name

Hello All,
I have implemented the bursting by email functionality for one of my reports. I have tested this report. Everything is working fine. I am able to receive emails with file attachements.
The problem is the attached file names are prepended with some xmlp_12345678_ .
Ex: if the building_id is 'AB0001' , the file name in the attachement is xmlp_23456789_AB0001_1.xls.
I would like to know is there any way to get it as AB0001.xls.
I tried to give bldg.building_id||'.xls' as one of the parameters in bursting definition. But, looks like its ignoring it. The file attachment is still prepended with some xmlp and some auto generated number.
Here is the bursting definition
select distinct bldg.building_id KEY,
'Report_with_status' TEMPLATE,
'RTF' TEMPLATE_FORMAT,
'en-US' LOCALE,
'EXCEL' OUTPUT_FORMAT,
'EMAIL' DEL_CHANNEL,
'my email address' PARAMETER1,
null PARAMETER2,
'my email address' PARAMETER3,
'Report for '||bldg.building_id PARAMETER4,
'Please find the attached report' PARAMETER5,
'true' PARAMETER6,
'Do_Not_Reply email address' PARAMETER7,
from building bldg
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Probably, you have to request for enhancement on this from standalone bip.

How to get email attachment file name?

Hi,
I have a macro that executes when the user sends an email. In this macro, I want to get the subject of the email itself and the titles of all of its attachments (be they documents or other attached emails).
To get the email subject, I use Groupwise.ComposingItem.subject
To get the attachment filename, I use Groupwise.ItemAttachmentGetDisplayName("X00", <attachment_index>)
However, this call only seems to work for document attachments. For other emails attached to the current email, this call returns "Mail Attachment" instead of the name of the attached email. How can I get the name (i.e. subject) of the attached email?
Thank you,
Monika

Email attachment file name

Hi,
I have a macro that executes when the user sends an email. In this macro, I want to get the subject of the email itself and the titles of all of its attachments (be they documents or other embedded emails that were attached).
To get the email subject, I use Groupwise.ComposingItem.subject
To get the attachment filename, I use Groupwise.ItemAttachmentGetDisplayName("X00", <attachment_index>)
However, this call only seems to work for document attachments. For other emails embedded in the current email as attachments, this call returns "Mail Attachment" instead of the name of the attached email. How can I get and modify the name (i.e. subject) of the attached email?
Thank you,
M

Embedded emails do not have names.
If you want a name for an embedded email, you will
have to read the embedded email and get the subject.
You can not modify embedded emails.

EMAIL ATTACHMENTS - file too large

I tried emailing a catalog that's in a PDF format. It's file size is 12.29mg. I got a message that the file size was to large to send. Message stated that I needed to remove images so that file was than 10.0mg or that I could sign up for Windows Live Hotmail Plus in order to send larger files!
I went to the file's properties>advanced settings and clicked: compress contents to save disk space but I gather this has nothing to do with saving the file with compressed space such as a zip file. RIGHT?
Does anyone know a way around this? HELP!!!!!
I am using Windows XP, Explorer 7.0, and get my email thru Windows Live Hotmail.

You need to adjust your settings in making the PDF, perhaps to use
more agressive compression, or you need to reduce the complexity of
the original (perhaps less pictures). Then you have a smaller PDF.

How to automatically add file name to email subject line

I just upgraded from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 to Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
Previously, when I sent a form via email in outlook, the subject line of the email automatically filled the file name. With this new version, this no longer happens.
Is there a setting that allows me to automatically fill the subject line of the pdf with the file name (or some way for me to set the subject line automaticallly)? Most of my emailed pdf forms go to the same person with the same subject line.
Thank you for your consideration!

Unfortunately Adobe lacks the ability to control and access the email attachment file names.
You can set a standard submit button url action to a mailto command string with a mailto:you[at]yourdomain.com&subject=Your+Custom+Subject+Here
But you won't be able to know what the file name is to insert it into the subject.
To have full control over the output, I suggest you submit the data or whole PDF to a server-side script, such as PHP or ASP.net.
A script can can inject a field values into the custom SMTP email body, subject, recipient lists and attachment file name by parsing the submission or passing values via a Querystring.
Visit pdfemail.net for online examples and more information on server-side scripting.

LabVIEW 2011 file selection fails to fill in the file name into the "File name:" field

In LV2011 I am selecting a text file while my code is running. The "file name:" field is not populated with the selected file name.
This is inconvenient, especially if I want to modify a file name by one or some few characters.
How do i make LV 2011 behave like the previous versions?

Thank you fot your reply it causd me to find the problem.
I figured it out while I was trying to extract the applicable section of my code to send it to you.
I had an asterisc wired to the "default name" input of the "File dialog" VI.
Now I am not wiring anything to the "default name" input of the "File dialog" VI and it works just fine.
I am sorry for your lost time.

Auto saving email attachments using date email received as the name of the attachment file

I would like to be able to batch save hundreds of email attachments in my inbox to a specified folder and use the date and time email was received as the name of the file. i found sample script that would give it timestamp but would prefer date and time of receipt. any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.

I found the below script online but it does not seem to be naming correctly. it appears that the month always defaults to 12. perhaps somehow could suggest a fix?

Email attachments I receive have numbers and brackets at the end of the file names

Sometimes the email attachments I receive have numbers and brackets at the end of the file names, please view the screen shot attached. Any idea what causes this? Mac OSX 10.8.5 and Mac Mail v6.6

E-mail the sender and see if that is how the attachments looked when attached.

Is there a way to alter the file name given to the attachments in an email button?

When ever I click the standard email button, I get an attachement with random alfa and numeric characters for the file name. Is there any way to change the files names to match a data field in the form or start with something I choose?
Thanks,
Judy

Hi RudyLou36,
While viewing the form in Preview TAB of LC Designer you will always get the junk characters as the name of the file. Save the file and open it in Acrobat or Reader.
You won't be able to change the filename unless you save the file first. Here (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/462681) is an example of a number of ways to deal with parts of the email programatically.

Name/type of downloaded email attachments is changed to attachment.ashx or something similar

I access an email account at the site below which provides Microsoft Outlook Web access. Since the last Firefox update to version 8.0, the true name/type of email attachments that I download is changed to attachment.ashx (or attachment1.ashx etc if there are several downloaded files. This is very inconvenient. Note that the problem does not exist when downloading attachments from aol.com. There is also no problem when I use IE as browser. Version/system details below are correct.

Outlook Web Access sends an illegal Content-Dispositon header to Firefox. This is no longer allowed in Firefox 8. Firefox 9 will have a workaround for this so that Microsoft has time to fix their software.<br>

Can't email files with spaces in the file name since 10.5.2 upgrade

Not sure if this is a bug with Leopard or I'm being stupid (possibly the later) but... Has anyone else experienced this issue and do you know what is causing it? I am currently unable to send a file that has a space in the file name. The only change on my system that has occurred since I last sent and email in a similar way is I've updated my OS from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2. Any ideas how to fix it?

Sorted. Well sort of. I still have the problem but I know why. Apparently O2 will not allow anyone to send an attachment which has a space in the name. They claim that this reduces spam - no idea why they think that will stop spam but there you go...

I am using OSX 10.9.5 and Outlook Web App for emails. When I download an attachment it replaces the space in the file name with - how can I change this?
