Mail Composing Problems

For some reason when I want to attach something thin an email, like a PDF file, it is embedded in the email. Why is this happening? It's wasn't doing it and then all of sudden it was, is there a setting that I need to change? Please let me know as this is really annoying. Thanks.

This is normal behavior and really has always been that way for attachments that Mail can render.
Are you saying it is embedded when a recipient gets it? Do you drag it on to mail or Attach it?
What annoys you about it?
I think you will find that it is not embedded when the recipient gets it.

  • Powerbook G4 Mail, composing problem

    I gave my old G4 to Mom and I'm too far away to help her. She says when she is typing the content of a letter in mail, the typing turns blue and disappears. (kinda like highlight for cut or copy) Thereby, she can't send any letters. Any help out there? She still thinks I'm pretty smart. Let's keep the dream alive. Thanks.

    Now we get to the bottom of it. Mom is 75 years old, so there is leeway here. It would seem she had no idea mail is on the dock. Even though we set up her smtp etc together. She goes Safari to Cox mail. That is where the program is eating her writing. She was pleased to find that Apple has it's own mail app, and it works fine. So I think you get solved points for showing a little old lady something new. For her, mail is mail. Now it's different. Thanks Brody. ( Now she has 1400 messages to go thru, file and delete. That should keep her busy.)

  • Mail Server Problem

    The mail server problem has been resolved, mail is working as designed....yeah!!

    silly discusting board, I've got 3 replies in my email but it's not showing here ...
    anyway, this time I found after some chasing my tail .... that the mail preferences had wiped my password and I needed to reinstall it, then instruct it to go online and some other click stuff ....
    and it seems to be ok now ....
    but each round in past 2 weeks has been different "fix" .... or wait ....
    sorry for anyone without master email for 5 days, that's just not right ....
    I'm afraid that as apple starts "giving away" email accounts to build the cloud into something much bigger than the mobile me was .... that their folo up will fail and we will find ourselves not with the same apple durability / consistency but with the "hey it's free" attitude ....
    let's see

  • What's with the new edition of Pages using Maverick?  Google rejects the files  with the following message attached "The reason for the problem: 5.3.0 - Other mail system problem 552-'5.7.0 This message was blocked as its content security threat?

    I recently upgraded both Pages 09 (I believe) and went to OSX 10.9 Maverick .... now I am unable to send a pages document to a friend on gmail.  Google rejects the message and attachment with the following explanation -
    The reason for the problem:
    5.3.0 - Other mail system problem 552-'5.7.0 This message was blocked because its content presents a potential\n5.7.0 security issue.

    Same Problem here
    IWORKS 09    pages, keynote, numbers does not send in MAIL (mac) because of "This message was blocked because its content presents a potentialsecurity issue"
    its a problem not only on GMAIL but also Live, Hotmail, Yahoo, and other services...
    The problem is that gmail and others haved yet accepted the latest iworks 09 files. its a problem that apple can ask then to fix but its up to the gmail and others to fix it.
    Solution!!!:
    1 - Send it by exporting to office files
    2 - Saving the files as old iwork documents
    3 - Command P and save as PDF
    4 - Save in icloud and send the URL
    So you can still send them but have to take a bit more of your time
    i hope you understand my english is not optimal
    And if you have any questions feel free to ask me

  • Maverick Mail Printing Problem: prints email header on separate page from body of email.  Why?!

    Maverick Mail Printing Problem: prints email header on separate page from body of email.  Why?!

    For what it's worth, I can report exactly the same problem.  I just recently converted from Outlook for Mac 2011 to Mail.  I did the conversion while running Yosemite.  I like pretty much everything about Mail EXCEPT that it take 2 pages to print a 1 page email!!  The header appears on the top of p.1, followed by a blank space.  The message begins at the top of p.2.
    If you scale it down, you can get the message to begin to appear on the bottom of p.1, but clearly, Mail is inserting BIG SPACE between the header and the message.  Changing the display fonts for Mail had no apparent effect (except that the font DID change, of course)....still a BIG SPACE between the header and the message. 
    Coming to Mail for the first time, I would have assumed that this was just a quirk of Mail, but am I understanding that some of you Mail users out there USED TO NOT have this problem??  I think it's pretty clear that it's Mail that's causing the problem, not the message, because I went over to my old Outlook and printed the same couple of messages with no such space between the header and the message.  So Mail is inserting a space into the print formatted email message that is NOT there in Outlook's print formatted same message.
    Be really nice to get rid of this problem, but my Apple Care free support has expired.  Not sure I want to pay for something that's generic to Mail!!  Anyone else made any progress on this?

  • Mail loading problem

    Hi all
    I've got this mail loading problem,
    whenever the mail is loading I always scroll down to read the text first
    but it always to back to the top, I scroll down again it scroll back up.
    this happen only during the images are loading.
    it is very annoying, though it might be fix in 10.5.7
    but it was not.
    any plan to solve this?

    I have the same problem. Did you get any answers?

  • How can I increase the width of the 'mail composer' box and put the attachment box (at present on the right) below it?

    The width of the 'mail composer' box is too narrow so that with my email program half the buttons are missing.
    == All the time

    Thanks for your swift response.
    I understand the difference between the web browser and email program.
    I have just started using Firefox from IE and IE displayed the new mail page full width.
    Firefox displays the reading web page full width but not the compose mail page because of the layout with the attachment box to the right of the box where you write your mail.
    I was hoping that there was a way to customise and change the layout.
    Is that possible?

  • Has anybody experienced missing sent emails after updating their iPhone to IOS 5.0?  Mail composed on phone appears to send but is never delivered nor does it show in sent items. Using Exchange 2010. Any thoughts??

    @Satterp
    Not sure if you were responding to me or OP - my iPhone is on 5.1.  The OP at the time of writing was on 5.0.1.
    Also, the OP and I had setup our Hotmail as an Exchange server (similar to IMAP), not POP3.

  • Problems sending mail: some problem with the outgoing mail server SMTP?

    I can't send e mails: some problem with the outgoing mail server SMTP?

    I had this same problem with both my imac and mac book pro using hotmail via mac mail with bt as my internet provider. Suddenly 4 months ago out of nowhere i could receive emails but could not send them. I scoured all the threads followed all the fixes none of them worked. However I just phoned apple support and fixed it in a matter of minutes. I am SO happy. This is what the technician advised me:
    Go to your apple icon and scroll down to system preferences. Then dependant on what machine you have it is different for my imac and mac book pro click on either air port/wifi then the advanced tab in the bottom right hand corner. Then click on the DNS tab. Hit the + sign on the left hand side and type in 8.8.8.8 then hit the + sign again on the left hand side it will create a new line underneathe and type 8.8.4.4 then hit okay on the bottom right and then hit apply, again on the bottom right. Then send a test email to check but it should be fixed.
    Had to share this. Its been driving me mad for months.

  • Yahoo! Mail send problem

    Hello all, anyone know when we will see a fix for the Yahoo! Mail sending problem? (This is when the iphone appears to have sent an email by playing the "swoosh" sent mail sound, but the message was not sent, the way users have been getting Yahoo! Mail to send again is by turning their iphone off then back on).
    Cheers

    For what it's worth I also had this problem with Yahoo mail on my iPhone. After getting tired of waiting for Yahoo to do something about it, I decided to cancel my Premium Yahoo account and switch to Gmail. I have to tell you Gmail has been amazing and I haven't looked back since. IMAP Gmail on my iPhone has made my email experience a pure joy.
    BTW - I had my Yahoo account for over 7 years. And did you know that Yahoo is an acronym for You Always Have Other Options? Well I took them up on their advice since I wasn't too impressed with their service! My 2 cents.

  • HT6147 iOS 7.0.6 update - mail sending problems & uncontrollable apps closing

    Hi all!
    I’m having problems on two iPads after installing iOS 7.0.6 update. The first one is “sending mails via Exchange account and gmail is a NO GO!” an the second is “closing apps from time to time uncontrollably”. With iOS 7.0.4 this worked fine.
    Anyone with same or similar problems? Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    I already tried rebooting and deleting/adding accounts again in mail app with no positive effect.
    Since iPads are used by company’s managers where seamless emailing is crucial function, this made iPads expensive bricks and nothing more.
    The rest of iPads are to stay on the older version till this is fixed or workaround is found.
    Thanks
    Misci

  • New iPhone 5 - internet and mail reception problems?

    I just acquired a new iPhone 5. I have regular reception internet and mail reception problems. The internet on both Wifi and provider network drops out on a regular basis, although reception signals of both wifi and network are strong. When turning off the phone and restarting the internet comes back for a short while and loses connection again. Has somebody else experience similar difficiulties, If yes how can this be fixed.

  • Mail app problem

    My wife and I have seperate user accounts on the macbook. When I ran the mail app in her account it asked for some set up info, which we entered based on what was being used in her imac. Didn't do much with it for a day or two and then when I came back to it I was unable to connect to the defined POP server (Connection Doctor window showed POP login failing). After fiddling around a bit with no success I decided to delete the mail account info (via the - button from mail->preferences->acounts) and create a new one. The account info appeared to be deleted then but we got a multicolored spinning wheel that woudl not go away and ultimately had to force quit the mail app. Now when the mail app is launched all we get is the spinning wheel and all we can do is force quit the mail app. I tried to find out how to run the mail setup assistant again but could not find any info on how to run it or where to find it. All I found was info that said it would run the first time mail app was run.
    Dose anyone have any pointers or know what I should do to resolve this mail app problem?
    Thanks
    Craig

    There are several threads on this in the forums. Search for "Mail spinning beach ball."
    Essentially, there is something wrong with the Mail folder in ~/Library/Mail/. Move the Mail folder to the desktop and restart Mail. It will create a new Mail folder. You can then import anything that was in the old mailboxes.
