Mail reduces my pictures and attachments automatically

If I write or transmit mails with pictures attached (even if they are attached by Iphoto), mail reduces my Pictures automatically.
How can I send pictures in original size?

Catherine, I'm having trouble with Mail resizing my images, even though I am selecting Actual Size or Large. In the email it generates, the image appears, but at an optimized size, down to 20-40K, from an original or about 4M.
This just started happening suddenly. I've always sent large files, sometimes zipped, but even that isn't working. I found many solutions in Apple Support, but they all say something similar. Here is one.
The problem here is, what does 'Open Terminal' mean? Thanks for your help!
1. Quit mail
2. Open Terminal, type:
defaults write com.apple.mail MaxImageSize 'large'
3. Press Enter
4. Open mail again and drag an image to a new message.

Mail - Uintended Saved Messages and Attachments in .imapmbox

+Why do I have thousands of documents (messages and attachments) from past years stored in folders with suffix .imapmbox?+
Time Machine quit backing up because of insufficient space on my external drive. Searching for an answer, I found (and deleted) a few thousand files dating back a couple of years: nearly 150gb of old messages, images, movies, and documents that I did not know were stored. Many were stored multiple times. Most were at the locations:
Macintosh HD => Users => (Username) => Library => Mail => Mac (Username) => Deleted Messages.imapmbox => Attachments
. . . and similarly with the last folder in the sequence being "Messages." : Sent Messages.imapmbox =>
The situation also occurred with "Sent Messages.imapmbox" having hundreds of Messages and Attachments.
I had no knowledge of these being on my HD because when (in Mail) I clicked on "Sent" and "Trash On My Mac" I saw relatively few files only the ones I expected, given the selections I made in Preferences.
In Mail Preferences for "Sent" I have checked store on server and delete when one month old.
For Trash I have checked moved deleted messages to Trash mailbox and store deleted messages on server. Also, "Permanently delete messages when one week old."
In Preferences - General, I had selected "Remove Unedited Downloads: After message is deleted."
I do want email downloaded to the Mac HD to read offline, why do they get stored embedded out of sight (and previously out of mind) down in those .imapmbox locations?

No, you can't emulate that feature. But you can just compose your message and when you're done, press Return at least 3 times and attach your file there; that will make the attachment be at the end of the message (such as an image), or appear separately as an attachment in the message header when the recipient opens it.

Mail 2.1.3 and attachments in the middle of messages

Hi
We have users with OS 10.4.11 and Mail 2.1.3. Often I get messages from them with attachments mid message, the rest of the message gets converted to ATT00001.html and I have to open that view the rest of the message. Other's with various Mail clients get similar results.
It's usually because they've attached the message when the cursor was mid-message. 10.5 / Mail 3 has the Edit>Attachments>"Always attach Attachments at End of Message" option which gets around this.
My query is can I emulate this option somehow with Mail 2.1.3 ?
Thanks
Matt

HT5622 I lost my phone in Regina, Saskatchewan and had my same number to my new phone I purchased in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. All my contacts, text messages, and a few pictures and videos automatically transferred to my new phone how get latest pics

My phone number is same as phone that was lost. When the rep from Bell in Moose Jaw, sask all my contacts, text messages, and only some of my pictures and videos came through but, not all of them, it loaded my oldest pictures and videos. I want the latest pictures and videos, how do I do that? I also purchased 15 GB Icloud storage, when I go into the "Manage Storage" at the bottom of screen it says 12.1 GB available of 15.0 GB on icloud the processing bar has only moved slightly and just stays that way. What do I do to get all my pictures and videos?

E-mail with Subject, Body and Attachments

Hi,
I am currently completing a project to create an intranet site for employees.
We need functionality to send email confirmation of a sale to customers. I'm going to start by saying i have zero web design experience and have only been doing this for 3 months heavily using the ribbon with minimal coding. So the situation is:
I have a button that i want employees to be able to click and it opens a new email from outlook with pre-populated body text (which is static and never changes) and 3 attachments also never changing. The employee will then enter the clients email address
and add their name to the email.
I have managed the email and subject no bother. However the body text i want to enter needs to look like this:
"TRAVEL INSURANCE
I confirm cover is in place.
If you need any assistance whilst abroad call: 0800 000 000 for 24 hour assistance or contact our claims department on:
0800 000 000. This office can be contacted on: 0800 000 000
asking for extension number:XXXX to speak to myself.
Yours Sincerely
XXXXXXXXXXXX
Travel Adviser
Please Note: This e-mail was sent from a notification-only email address that cannot accept incoming e-mail. Please do not reply to this message."
I've managed to get some of the body text in but no formatting. I've managed line breaks using %0D%0A but if i add a double break to get a clear line there doesn't seem to be enough room and it begins to lose the body text.
Thats issue 1.
Issue 2 is how you manage to attach files. Everything i look at says you need to do your own piece of coding which is far beyond my capability for this project!
Any help would be fantastic.
this is my code so far:
[email protected]?subject=Travel%20Confirmation%20Email&body=TRAVEL INSURANCE%0D%0A%0D%0AI confirm cover is in place.%0D%0AIf you are in need of any assistance whilst you are abroad please contact our 24 hour emergency
helpline on: (0000) 000 000 or the claims department on: 00000 000 000. If I can be of any further assistance, please contact our office on 0000 000 0000, extension number: XXXX.%0D%0AThank you for insuring with us.%0D%0AYours sincerely%0D%0AYOUR NAME%0D%0ATravel

Hi,
According to your description, you might want to let users be able to send email with attachments.
As you might prefer a codeless solution, I would suggest you create a
SharePoint Designer workflow to achieve it.
A solution can be like this:
1. Create a list “ListA” for storing the three attachments which you want to add into your email, it will be referenced in the workflow;
2. Another list “ListB” with two columns “ClientEmailAddress” and “ClientNames”, it will be used to collect user input and sent to the workflow;
3. Create a SharePoint Designer workflow and attach to the “ListB”, set the workflow to be started when there is new item added in the current list.
By doing this, users can simply add a new item in “ListB” with two columns filled, an email will be sent out as you required.
In SharePoint Designer workflow, we can send email contains predefined format easily with the available workflow action in SharePoint Designer.

send email with attachments, you would like to install this solution in your environment, it provides a useful custom workflow action you will need:

Best settings for saving photos to help reduce duplicating pictures and clogging my storage

Hi Everyone, i have finally bought myself an imac and loving it already.
The support community has been great as I have founds alot of useful info that has helped me in the set up of my new imac.
but I have found a problem i never knew i had....
The problem which was highlighted after migrating my PC files over to the imac was the number of photos i had. it was a ridiculus amount. When i looked into it, it turns out many were duplicated, and even in triplicates.
I don't have any particular settings set up, i just always connected an automatically saved on my PC.
It will take me a while to review and delete the duplicates, i just want to ensure going forward that I don't continue to do the same, and i am hoping someone can help point out the right set up (settings) I should be looking at.
I will be looking to save photos from the following devices:
Canon EOS 550 - which i sometimes save photos direct onto my IPAD as well as saving to my PC (now my Imac)
Ipad - photos and videos
iphone - photos and video
I am probably not utlizing the icloud properly but I am sure there is an easier way to just get my devices saving the new photos and avoiding duplicating.
Any recommendations?

Hi Terence, yes it does. i just finished reading your post regarding iphoto and file saving.
i have quite alot of photos i migrated over, I have just sent the imported (it is still importing) the whole folder into iphoto.
it has already highlighted duplicates and i have clicked the do not import for duplicates now. the product i have is that there will still be duplicates in the original folder due to various sub folders. ( i know this is such a newbie thing to do).
i was thinking just move all photos out of the sub folders in one big foldered but didn't want to loss date info. ie when the photo was taking as i couldn't see any other dates attached to the file except for date added, date last used etc which all showed the date i migrated the photo.

When my wife goes to login to Yahoo mail, my email Id and password automatically appear. How do I tell Firefox not to populate these fields with my id and passwords. Basically how do we not have firefox automatically fill in these fields.

When my wife was already login to our shared computer, I went into Yahoo email and told the computer to save my login and password. Now, everytime my wife goes to login to her Yahoo email my ID and Password are filled in. How do we have firefox not remember the Yahoo ID and Password for anyone?

Mail reduces pictures size - How can I stop this?

Hello,
Recently whenever I want to send a picture with a good resolution (for ex 2MB), Mail reduces it automatically down to 100 or 200 kb.... Ok I know it's better to send smaller attachement, but sometimes I want/need to send full resolution pictures. How can I stop mail from doing that? I looked in the preferences, I looked at the attachement window... can't find it. Please help because this is annoying.
Thank you in advance for your time and attention.

William you're my hero And as I suspected all along it was right under my nose the hole time but I had looked everywhere except below the message window
Thanks a lot

Mail 4.5 (1084) is not automatically downloading larger attachments.

Mail 4.5 (1084) is not automatically downloading larger attachments (i.e. a 2 MB file) without the user clicking on the SAVE button or the attachment icon (white square with down arrow).
Before download:
The problem is that if the user accidentally deletes the message before downloading the attachment, and then views that message in the trash OR moves the message from the trash back to inbox, the attachment is lost and message appears garbled up.
This is not a problem if user clicks SAVE or clicks attachment icon itself before deleting it - message and attachment will be readable in trash and when restored to inbox.
Question:
Is there a way to force Mail to download all attachment regardless of size without requiring user interaction?
Thank you
ig

Actually smaller attachments are downloaded automatically, or perhaps it depends on attachment type?
Try the same with say 2MB .PPT file .. email the file to yourself. It will come through as "click to download" icon (see image above). Trash the message (before SAVE or clicking on attachment), now try opening it in the trash or pulling it back to inbox and then open it. Attachment is gone and you get garbage - clearly extra data is there but is non-readable.
Not a big issue for a single user - potentially very big issue for an admin supporting large number of end-users, some of which are recent Outlook transplants.
Btw, I'm using IMAP server and I have enabled "Store deleted messages on the server"

I received 2emails with attachments 1st had pictures and music can see pictures but no music 2nd had words and commentary can not open attachment at all after downloading

I received 2emails with attachments on both, 1st had pictures and music , can see the pictures but cannot hear music, 2nd had words and a commentary , cannot get either after downloading when I press the download a mail sign appears

Depending on what kind of computer you have, you're gonna need to put that backup in the appropriate folder or itunes is not gonna be able to see it for you to use.

Copying text and attachments in mail

I want to print several emails without the header information (just the body of the email containing pictures). When I try to print from within Mail I'm given three options, none of which are satisfactory so I've tried to just copy (select all and then copy)and then paste into Word or Text Edit. The result is always just the text is copied, no pictures (attachments). Is there some reason pictures are not copied and is there a way to do what I'm trying to do?
TIA

Here's what to do:
Open the message in Mail, click somewhere in the body and select Edit -> Select All. That will select the body and not the header. Then Edit -> Copy.
Then open TextEdit and with a blank window open select Format -> Make Rich Text. Then Edit -> Paste.
That should paste the mail message body into TextEdit, pictures and all.

How do I get mail on my iPhone and computer to sync automatically, so e.g. messages read on one appear read on both? I am working in VN and the microsoft access server is in the USA.

How do I get mail on my iPhone and computer to sync automatically, so e.g. messages read on one appear read on both? I am working in VN and the microsoft access server is in the USA.

If you created as an Exchange account on the iPhone (not IMAP or POP) and you have Push on it should all work smoothly; Reading a message on either client should mark the other read (it does on mine). Try deleting the account from the phone, rebooting the phone (to clear out old settings), then go to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendar, add an account and tap Microsoft Exchange and add the account back.
There is a fundamental difference between BB and iPhone that you should be aware of; on the BB you do not sync directly with Exchange; you sync with the RIM server which then syncs with your Exchange server. The iPhone syncs directly with Exchange using Microsoft's ActiveSync protocol. So in some ways they will behave differently. But ActiveSync should manage marking messages as read correctly.

Reducing a picture file to attach to an e-mail message on a new Z10

Hello out there, recently got a new Z 10, love it by the way. Does any one know how to reduce the picture files that you take with the Z10 to attach one or more to an email message. There is no prompt in the sending process that warns you the files are to large and options to reduce the sizes. I have tried all the visible edit icons that come up but none of them are associated with file reduction.
I would appreciate any knowledgable responce.
Thanks, Joseph
Solved!
Go to Solution.

the picture editor in the z10 does a great job with cut, effects, sharpening etc. but there is no re-size. There are a couple of free photo editors in the appworld that does this for you.

In putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I wnt to red

picture size...in putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I want to reduce the image to fit the size of the box.

If you right click on the image on the page in the context menu select photo box alignment and then select one of scale to fit {centered, Left-aligned, Right-aligned}
That should do what you are loking for.
