Attaching messages in Mail

Hello everyone. I've searched the forums and can't find a clear answer or recent post. I started using DavMail for my work email, since we use an Exchange 2003 server, along with Mail to get away from Entourage 2008.
A common practice for me is to attach messages to new emails and when I send them they are received with the text embedded on the new message rather than an attachement. My question is if Apple has implemented a way to have attached messages show up as attachements in Mail. I'd rather not change the email format to Plain Text. I've tried with and without "Edit~Attachements~Always insert attachements at end of Message" enabled and no luck. I'm on OS 10.6.7.
Thanks in advance.

Most e-mail clients display attachments inline if they can figure out how to do it - as their default behavior or as their only behavior. If the attachment is an earlier e-mail message, it goes without saying that they can display it. Their users may have some control over this behavior, but (as Barney - 15e posted) you don't, at least not directly.
This is the standard action because, 99 percent of the time, it makes things easier for the person who gets the e-mail. That's why the people you send messages to will usually have their software set this way, if that software lets them control this at all. Is there any reason you want to force your correspondents to open a separate attachment to see the earlier message? If there is, converting it to (for example) a Word document will prevent most e-mail clients from opening and displaying it while still enabling just about all recipients to open it if they want to.

Is there any way to automatically add an attachment to a message in Mail?

Hi,
I have to responsd to a lot of emails with basically the same response. I use a TextExpander snippet for the body of these messages. However, I usually need to attach a PDF file as well.
Is there anyway to automate attaching a PDF attachement to a message in Mail?
Perhaps, this can be done by adding the attachment into a Signature, although I havent seen a way to do this.
Or perhaps, some kind of Automator scritpt?
The mail account is actually a Google Apps account, so perhaps there is a way to have the GMail server do something to the message on the way out?
Thanks

it's fairly easy to create an outgoing message with attachments in applescript; just use a script like the following:
tell application "Mail"
          set newMess to make new outgoing message with properties {visible:true, subject:"test emal"}
          tell newMess
make new attachment at end of attachments with properties {file name:"/path/to/attachment"}
          end tell
end tell
it's extremely difficult to add an attachment to an outgoing email that's already been created, however (there's no easy way in applescript to get a reference to an open outgoing message window if the script did not make the window itself). I'm not sure which you had in mind.

Missing Incoming Message Attachment Bar in Mail

Hi, I have suddenly noticed that when viewing a message in Mail which has been received with an attachment, I do not see the attachment options that used to appear on the right side of the window below the header (in line with the reply, forward etc. that appear in the center). See photo below.
The attachment options had options to save, save individual attachments or if they were photos, an option to add to iPhoto. Basically that whole menu has disappeared and does not show in the message window anymore.
Is there an option that I have turned off by mistake? Please help with a a solution.
Kind regards,
Kunal.

Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)

I have this problem as well. Not only is that entire menu missing, but sometimes when I receive an e-mail with an attachement the attachment doesn't even show up. The person sending me an e-mail says "invoice attaced" or something of the sort, yet there is no attachment. I am using a GoDaddy e-mail accout, so when I actually go to the website and sign on I can see the attachment on the e-mail. Clearly the attachments are attaching, but they are just not showing up on Mac Mail. This is only sometimes, other times I get the attachments no problem.
Any suggestions out there would be great!

How can I view my messages in mail, I only can see incoming emails, but the the screen where the message must be visible is empty. Also attachements are nog visible. These messages are visible on my Iphone. thanks

Filename attachment in E-Mail from Support Message

Hello,
Can You explain me how to manage a filename of the attachment in E-Mail from Solution manager ServiceDesk.
We receive the mail notification with attachment which has always same filename - "service_operation.pdf".
Thank you.

Hi,
Do you want to receive the e-mail as a pdf or e-mail? I suppose it is in a pdf. However, if you are unable to set teh attachment name, trying setting the e-mail in text format rather than pdf.
You can check the SCOT setiing for SMTP> Internet>Set--> Output formats for SAP documents. Keep this value as TXT.
This should help.
Thanks,

Using header paramter SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH in Sender mail adapter

I am trying to check if an e-mail contains attachment in reciever determintion
I set the Variable Header XHeaderName1 to be SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH
in Sender mail adapter
I added a condition in the receving determintation
XHeaderName1 = yes
I see the DynamicConfiguration tab in sxmb_moni and the value of SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH is "yes"
but the message fails with the error
No receiver could be determined
any ideas?

Hi,
In Receiver determination you need to set SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes instead of XHeaderName1.
As far my understanding, in receiver determination you need to verify the condition with SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes (check with syntax also ie. case sensitive and all)
Thanks

How to download / read text attachment in Sender Mail Adapter IN XI

Hi
I would like to know how to download / read text attachment in sender mail Adapter & sent same attachment to target system using file adapter.
Please help how to design / resolve this concept.
Regards
DSR

I would like to know how to download / read text attachment in sender mail Adapter & sent same
attachment to target system using file adapter.
Take help from this blog:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/18/xi-sender-mail-adapter--payloadswapbean--step-by-step
From the blog:
However in most cases
our message will not be a part of the e-mail's payload but will be sent as a file attachment.
Can XI's mail adapter handle such scenarios? Sure it can but with a little help
from the PayloadSwapBean adapter module
Once your message (attachment) is read by the sender CC, you can perform the basic mapping requirement (if any) to convert the mail message fromat to the file format.....configure a receiver FILE CC and send the message...this should be the design...

Open attachment from AOL mail

when i download a attachment from AOL mail I get a message "Adobe Reader could not open (name of file) it is not a supported etc

What is your operating system? Reader version?
If you download the attachment to your local disk first, then open it from there, does it open?

Since installing 8.0.1 I cannot send an attachment in AOL mail when I could with previous versions.

When I try to send an attachment in AOL mail I get an error message "We encountered a technical issue, please try again."
This happens every time over the past few days.

Never mind the above message....I uninstalled Firefox 4.0.1 and reinstalled 3.6 and then updated to 3.6.7. Now I've lost all my Bookmarks. This is really getting to be frustrating and ridiculously hard to find answers!! What's up with the brains behind Mozilla?? Are they all hacked??

How to open a pdf attachment in imac mail

I am unable to open a PDF attachment in Mac Mail. There is not a PDF Icon in the email message. Is there a setting that should be checked?
I have a new iMac (less than a month old) with Mountain Lion.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It is an actual PDF that is an attachment to an email. There is not a link to click on to open the attachment.
The attachment is a statement that I normally open, then print..
What I am seeing on the monitor is the heading portion of the email with the statement image, all on one page..It prints exactly as seen on the screen.
I have checked my Mail>Preferences>Viewing Tab."Display remote images in HTML" messages is checked..
Thanks for the help.

Retrieval of attachment filename - receiver mail adapter

Hi,
I am using the mail adapter to receive an e-mail into PI. This e-mail has an attached CSV file.
First, I am using the PayloadSwapBean to swap the application playload to the attachment payload
Second, I am using the MessageTransformBean to transform the CSV file into an XML document
These are both working fine and the message is then passing into the relevant message mapping.
However, I would like to be able to use the attachment filename in the message mapping.
Can anyone advise how to do this for the mail adapter ?
I've done it loads of times for the file adapter but never the mail adapter (when using attachments) so I am a bit stumped.
Any advice greatly received.
Cheers
Colin.

Hi Progirl,
I want to dynamically set the name of attachment in receiver mail Communication Channel.
Example: IN__9907211000004_4048454000005_20081211_01000000002643
The first two numbers 9907211000004 & 4048454000005 I want to read it from the message
20081211 this is the date and
And againg this number 01000000002643 is read from message.
I read from your response. You had created adapter module for the similar purpose. Can you share it. Since I am new to writing Adapter Module.
Thank You in Advance.

Text file as an attachment in reciever mail adapter

Hi,
>>>I want to pick the text file using sender file adapter using file content converion, same file i need to send an attachment in reciever mail adapter.
use payload swap bean to put the attachment in place of the message payload - do the content conversion using
content conversion adapter module, then do the same in the reverted order at the receiver
there are dozenz of blogs showing how to use the two adapter modules I mentioned so just do a little search in blog section

Adapter Module Error-Sending excel file as an attachment of the mail

Hi ,
My scenario is as follows
1)I am sending an excel file as an attachment of the mail.I need to read that excel attachment as a payload.
So mail adapter is used in sender side.
To configure this, have used standard PayloadSwapBean module with proper module key.
Next to convert excel to XML another custom adapter module is being used.
Both this adapter module , I configured into the CC of sender mail adapter.
The order in which adapter modules are being used in the sender CC are as follows
1)localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean
2)localejbs/MDPExcelToXMLConversion
3)sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
MDPExcelToXMLConversion-Custom adapter module written to convert excel to xml.
I am getting the following error
exception caught during processing mail message [4899]com.sap.aii.af.lib.mp.module.ModuleException
And also,
no messages in coming MONI of PI.
Pls suggest what to do.
Thanks
Ayan

Shabarish,
Will the ordering in which the adapter modules(In this case there are two-PayloadSwapBean & MDPExcelToXML) are appearing into Module tab of sender adapter matter?
Firstly, what is happenning
1)If I take out the custom adapter module MDPExcelToXML and put only PayloadSwapBean then it is successfully converting mail attachment into the main Payload i.e PayloadSwapBean module is working.
2)Nextly, my local code( i.e java code without including standard Module specific method like ejbActivate(),ejbPassivate(),process() etc etc.)) for MDPExcelToXML is successfuly converting the excel file into the XML file.Then I am making the local code into adapter module specific code and deploying that.
A few question arises here,
Do I need to do any specific configurations here in PI for this particular things.Maybe both the adapter module is clashing with each other.
And also using tracing and logging into my custom adapter module code.Getting the following error,
java.io.IOException: Unable to read entire header; 116 bytes read; expected 512 bytes#
Thanks

Cannot drag MP3 attachment out of mail.

Hey All,
Since somewhere in Mavericks, now in Yosemite, I lost the ability to drag an MP3 attachment out of mail. I remember the time I was able to do so. Don't know where or what or why that changed. I can drag it in though, but not out. With things like jpeg, or pdf, I have no problems. I checked all prevs, of Mail app, and Finder.
What Am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Barracuda

i do want to leave 'automatic sync' enabled because, well, i want my phone to automatically sync when i plug it in. i also want drag-drop to work once it's done that, but that's why i posted...
the 2nd drag-drop: "the same drag-drop that worked not two minutes ago" refers to "[[dragging]] .MP3 files from elsewhere on my computer to my iTunes music library". Nothing to do with the phone. In fact the problem still occurs if I disconnect the phone after iTunes has launched.
i'd be interested to hear if anyone else sees this behavior:
1) iTunes launched by Explorer => drag-drop enabled
2) iTunes launched by iTunesHelper (plug in iPhone) => drag-drop disabled
where 'launched' means actually launched, and not just restored from the system tray.
