Outlook Meeting Attachments in e-mail Campaigns

Hi,
I have been asked to provide the functionality so that when an e-mail campaign is executed, to have an Outlook meeting icon sent with the e-mail to put the item in the recipients Calendar.
This is assuming the recipient uses MS Exchange of course.
Has anyone done anything similar to this? Is it even possible?
Thanks
David

Hi David
have a look to the SAP- Produkt Groupware - Mapbox.
This can replicate Data to Outlook, for excample meetings in the calendar.
We use this feature, but we have a lot of problems.
Perhaps this solve your problem.
regards

Outlook Webapp attachments to e-mails.

I have to be able to attach files to e-mails. I just bought a brand new iMac yesterday and now I cannot attach e-mails in Outlook WebApp. The attachment box comes up, but it is cut off at the bottom and is therefore completely useless. Help!

I receive e-mail attachments " win mail.dat" from iPhones and iPads.All I can find is that Outlook users send these e-mails. I found "letter opener" and it helps but I'd rather receive jpeg in stead from my Apple friends

Last week I suddenly started receiving all e-mails with photo attachments from other iPad and iPhone users (on my iMac, iPhone as well as iPad!) as " winmail.dat" files. It says everywhere that that is caused by Outlook users sending RTF e-mails. Obviousely that is not the case here. I found an app to open the attachments, but of course that is no real solution. I asked Android and MS Outlook users to send me e-mails with JPEG attachments and the arrive aas they should.
Does anyone know the answer to this?

By the way, some non-delivery receipts (NDRs) are themselves spam messages with malicious attachments designed to infect your computer, so be cautious about opening any of those.

Outlook meeting invites received as ICS txt file in Yahoo mail

My boss is sending Outlook 2010 meeting invites to external users at Gmail, Yahoo, & hotmail. Gmail accept the meeting invite, but yahoo and hotmail get that as text (.ICS) files.
He is convinced this is an issue with our Exchange server and/or Outlook. Should he expect that Outlook meeting invites will be received correctly in other mail platforms or is there something I need to enable/install on either his Outlook or
the Exchange 2010 server to enable this?
Thank you,

Hi,
To determine if it's an issue on Outlook or Exchange, you can send a meeting request from OWA, check if this issue persists.
In Outlook, please go to File tab -> Options -> Calendar -> Calendar Options -> Have you checked "When sending meeting requests outside of your organization, use the iCalendar format"? Check or Uncheck it and click OK to test if this
is involved.

Can I attach a document to an e-mail campaign sent from BC?

I am preparing an e-mail campaign for a client and wish to attach a document.
Previously I have uploaded the document into the media downloads module and inserted a link in the e-mail campaign to download the file.
I have a feeling that more people will view the document if it is sent as an attachment rather than as a download link (particularly on mobile devices)
How so I include attachments in my e-mail campaigns from within Business Catalyst (if it is possible)?
I realise I will loose tracking options by doing this.

Attached files from an auotmated service - Instant block in most cases. Thats if you could, you cant in BC.
Your doing it the best way with the link and it also means you can track it.

ATT00001.htm attachment in Outlook when sent with Apple Mail

Hi,
This issue was highlighted previously

Title:
Mac Mail att htm issue in outlook
Question:
I'm using mac original mail software. I did set my HTML style template. The software is best ever.
And works good when I send email to outlook users on PC. However if I attach PDF for example, it does go through and outlook users get it, however when they open message all they see.
- attached PDF
- and att00001.htm file which has inside email text
Not everybody gets idea to open it and thy think it is empty email. The same email will be sent to apple user everything looks properly. Why email text is converting into the htm file? It happens only if i attach something to my message, if I don't then email text is not being converted to htm attachment.
I think there are a lot of user that know this issue, did anybody find a solution yet?
Thank you

I don't think there is anything you can really do about it.
I think that it's how the receivers program is going to interpret it.
For example, I sent an email to my Outlook account from my Mac with just an attachment; no text. I looked at the email in Outlook 2000 and I see the attachment as an item in the body text section of the email. When I look at that same email in Outlook 2003 the attachment shows in the attachment area under the subject line and the body text area is blank.
Then I sent another one with an attachment and some text in the body of the email. In Outlook 2000 I see the text in the text area and the attachment as well as a attxxx file in an area at the bottom of the email. The att file was empty. In Outlook 2003 that same email as the attachment and the empty att file in the attachment area at the top and under the subject line and in the body text area of the email is the text that I typed.
Although Mac Mail uses standard protocols, which is why you can send an email to a Windows PC, it just does some different things. In the WIndows world Outlook and Outlook Express also handle some things differently.

Thank you for your reply
This issue makes mail.app useless, do you have any recommendations?
Other client which are as good as the mail.app or would be nice to know what is forcing to convert body text to attachment? I could reduce beautiness of my email template by taking out header (jpg) or not using rich text. What exactly is forcing outlook to convert body to attxxxxx.htm file?
jhyiesla:
I truly don't know the answer to that question. Sometimes similar things happen coming the other way. I'll get emails in to my Mac Mail that have jpg files and I'll see the actual pictures in the body of the email.
I happen to also have Office 2008 for the Mac installed and when I sent my self a message and looked at it in Outlook 2000 and XP, the email looked "normal" in all instances. The attachment was marked as an attachment, text was where it should be and no att file.
There are other email clients that would probably work on the Mac like Thunderbird... but I'm guessing that you'd have a similar thing as happens with mac mail. Still it might be worth the download to test it out.
Goldblum:
I used entourage and same HTML template for email and have no problems. It is just so that entourage is as any other MS product "broken" out of the box but did good job and same message is not being converted to HTML attachment when it goes to outlook on PC. I will continue researching internet because it has to be solved. I can't send a message to client without comment to attached invoice. This is so not professional. I will play more with settings of mail.app to see what else can be done to avoid conversion.
jhyiesla:
Entourage probably works well with Outlook because they're both MS products and MS is going to have somewhat similar looks to all their Office products... although there is quite a bit of difference between Entourage and Outlook.
Here's a link that may help you on your search:
http://email.about.com/od/macemailclients/tp/free.htm

As mentioned, Outlook is not email standards compliant. It probably never will be based on Microsoft's history. However, I think there are various issues involved in the problems people have. I often send emails from home to my Outlook account at work. I have never experienced any of the problems that I've seen posted anywhere regarding Mail and Outlook.
My conclusion is that there are issues with certain Exchange Server configurations and/or issues with your own ISP mail server causing the issues.
I do have my system set up to Always send windows friendly attachments (from what I've read, this really is 'send Outlook friendly attachments'), and always put attachments at the end. Prior to the 'always put attachments at the end,' I wasn't having any issues, either. However, I read that that setting helped with other email clients, so I use it.
The obvious question is, "well, how is your exchange server configured." I would love to provide the answer to that question; however, I work for a DoD organization, so actually tracking down the person that knows the answer to that question will take somewhere between five years and never. With my 20+ years experience with the DoD, I'm leaning towards the never end of the spectrum. The other half of the equation is, "I'm using cox as my ISP."

Transferring Outlook meeting notices (ics files) to iCal

Hello,
When I receive an outlook meeting notice in Mail the ics file does not show up as an attachment. If I look at the same email in my web account the ics meeting notice shows up and can be downloaded and added to ical with no problems. Is there a way to get the ics file to show up as an attachment in Mail or to have it load in iCal properly? Thanks for the help.
Doug

Is there a solution for this problem. Since I am using Mail I have the same problem. As long as I used Eudora this problem didn't occur.
TIA,
Dick

Outlook Meeting Request Notes Incomplete

I have ditched Outlook in VMware for Apple Mail and iCal.
Over the past couple of months I have been receiving some meeting requests that I have accepted into my calendar which do not include the complete notes from the meeting request. It has cause me to be late or re-request meeting details a few times now. We use webex for many meetings and most meeting hosts include meeting details and URLs to join the meetings in the note section.
Sometimes the complete details are included in the iCal entry and other times not. I have not figured out when this works versus' when it does not. It happened today when I believe I was forwarded an existing meeting from another's calendar, but so far I have not figured out a pattern.
When I accept the meeting the original note is moved to the Trash in Mail. When I look at the deleted email that contains the missing meeting details. This has happened on my Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro.
Does anyone else experience this or have a fix?

Integrating Outlook (Meeting Request) with JSP/ASP

Hi there
I am new to this forum. I was wondering if anyone knew a way where I could have a form in ASP or JSP for setting up meetings, and this form sends in meeting requests(instead of mail) to the recipients' outlook mailbox?
Thank ya all.

Hi,
Before we go further, Please kindly confirm does this issue only happens on that iPhone 5c? or repro's on all recipients' devices?
You might need to check if you have checked the check box of use the iCalendar format in
File->Options->Calendar->When sending meeting requests outside of your organization, use the iCalendar format.
Start your Outlook client in safe mode also worth a try as some add-ins, like the Anti-virus add-ins may also cause this kind of issue. Just press Win + R and type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, then press Enter.
Please try above workarounds first, and feel free to post back with any findings.
Thanks,

Use Muse pages for an e-mail campaign?

Hi All,
My client asked if I can provide Muse content for an email campaign.
If I export my Muse project to a folder then view the .html files using a browser the image looks close but not exactly right.
Does anyone have experience with using Muse designed pages for an e-mail campaign (as to how this can be done)?
Thanks!
Gary

I asked David Blatner, who runs the InDesign Secrets website, the same question about creating HTML Newsletters with Muse in a future edition, and he replied:
"The problem with "html email" is that it is dependent on very old email clients. For example, we are having a problem right now that some (but not all) people using Outlook 2003 are having trouble reading the free InDesign Tip of the Week email that we send using mailchimp. Yes, Outlook 2003.
Basically, html email has to be super lowest common denominator HTML. The best html email wouldn't even use CSS, but most email clients can read very simple css now. But remember that later versions of Outlook use MS Word as their HTML viewer, so… it's painful. That means, you really want to use tables and shim.gifs and stuff like that. It's not pretty.
Muse and in5 and most other tools are interested in creating 21st century HTML, not html from 1998. That's why it's extremely unlikely we'll see anything like this from Adobe (or probably even anyone else)."

Outlook viewing attachments as imbedded

Lately, my attachments sent from Mail have shown up on receiving PCs imbedded and are not extractable. Even Macs using Outlook receive attachments this way.
Anybody get this? Is there anything I can do on my end? What's a mother to do?

Just wanted to provide a bit of my experience. When sending email from Mail to PC/Outlook Express, attachments (jpegs, gifs) were visible in the message body but the Outlook Express Attachments button was not visable. Troubleshooting a bit demonstrated that the addition of a signature to the outgoing message would cause the missing attachments button problem. Messages were RTF. After disabling the signature, the Outlook Express Attachments button returned.
After finding this thread and switching to plain text messages, I was able to use signatures and add attachments with no Outlook Express Attachments problem.

Attachments freeze in MAIL

Attachments freeze in MAIL
The "Choose File" blinks..I cannot cance, or save, or select all, or dismiss.

I just experienced the same issue...
Although, it chaged a bit: sometimes hitting the "Attach file" Button would freeze mail, sometimes not. But adding an Image by drag'n'drop freezes the app everytime here.
Even replying to an email containing attachments (like images) would result in Mail.app freezing, as the attachment would be copied to the new email...
And it seems it's not related to the Upgrade to Mavericks, it worked like charm the last couple of months, now its happening....
I tried re-creating the Mail Account, removed the mail.plist, removed all emails on disk, had it downloaded new... I don't know what to do next...
Does anybody have any idea how to fix it?

E-mail Campaign Reports

Hi,
Is it possible to send e-mail campaigns through Webmail, but still obtain e-mail campaign reports through Business Catalyst?
I have some e-mail lists that I can only access through webmail, but require the reporting features that Business Catalyst provides.
Thank you,
Denise

Hi Manatee2013,
It's not possible to use your webmail account for mass mail-outs. This is against our email provider's policy and you may risk having your email account temporarily disabled. Please only use the email marketing campaign within the admin console of your site for this specific feature.
Note that within webmail you can export your address book. However you'd need to then modify the format of the exported file if you then wish to re-import this list onto your site as a mailing list.
Cheers.

Firefox crashes, even in safe mode, when I try to add attachments in Yahoo mail -- running Mac OSX 10.4.11, FF 3.6.16.

Firefox has consistently crashed when adding attachments in Yahoo mail. For a while Firefox would crash immediately when I clicked "attach." Then, for a while it would allow me to upload files if they were located in a folder that the Yahoo mail application opened when I clicked "attach," but if I tried to navigate to a different folder, I would crash when I clicked on the root user folder. I then updated Flash and tried Firefox in safe mode, and now Firefox (in safe mode or not) is again crashing as soon as I click attach in Yahoo mail. My system is as above, Mac OSX Tiger (10.4.11) on an original Mac Pro, all stock parts (I had added some aftermarket RAM but removed it some time ago, before these crashes started). Firefox does NOT generate a crash report dialog when I restart.

can't make much of this crash log but try this. when you get to the smtp server page in setup assistant hold option while clicking "create" or 'continue". this will skip the actual server validation and might prevent crashing.
