Attachment icon is visible even no attachments

Hi all,
I'm new to javaMail. I just tried some examples. My problem is if I send a message using java mail to yahoo account, the attachment icon is always visible even though there's no attachments for the mail.
Is there any way to solve this?
thanks and regards

Hi bshannon,
Thanks a lot for ur reply
Yes. I used multypart always. The code I used is attached below.
MultiPart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
String messageText = "message here";
MimeBodyPart mbp = new MimeBodyPart();
mbp.setText(messageText);
multipart.addBodyPart(mbp);
Do you mean that that attachment icon is always visible if multiPart is used? If so, how can I set message text without using MultiPart?
Thanks and regards.

I have a macbook pro and use MS Office 2011. In Outlook 2011, i have noticed a strange phenomenon. In some messages, although the attachment icon appears indicating presence of attachments, i am unable to actually see or access the attachments.

vivebk67,
FYI, I have the same issue. I converted from MS Office 2010 to Mac Office 2011 by importing .pst files several months ago and I have noticed that many emails, which I originally received in MS 2010 but coverted to Mac 2011, show the paperclip as if there is an attachment. But when I open the email, the attachment is not there.
At this point I cannot find any pattern as to why some converted emails retained their attachment and other emails appear to have retained their attachment but the attachment is not visible.
I can confirm that there actually is an attachment by opening up MS Office 2010, but that is a huge pain becasue I have to open Parallels to do that. I have no issues with any attachments received in Mac Office 2011.
I spent an hour opening up a ticket with MS, sent them .pst files with examples and the guy was able to confirm that he could open the attachment in MS, but not Mac. BUT, of course, I was told that I would not be apprised of any ticket updates and that the only way I would know if the issues was fixed was when I was finally able to view attachments that I was not able to view previously.

Attachment Icon (Staple) Should Differ If Empty Or With Attachment

Acrobat 9 Pro V9.3.4
Win7Pro x64
The Attachment Icon (Staple) gives no indication whether there is or is not an attachment. The Attachment Icon (Staple) for no attachments should look different than the Attachment Icon (Staple) when there are attachments. If the Attachment panel is not showing, you have no way of knowing if it has an attachment or is empty. Hopefully, you will add this feature in an update (patch) rather than wait for an upgrade. Thanks.

Attachment icon visible in Mail 5.1 but attachment is not visible

Running a couple of iMac's with OSX Lion and Mail 5.1.
Quite often we have problems receiving mails with attachments.
Lately in the list of received emails you do see the attachment icon (paper clip) yet in the message itself there is no attachment visible. Although there should be one. We have checked that the email was indeed sent with attachment and others (not with the same set-up/Mac) do receive these attachments.
Have found several threads about attachment issues but with earlier OSX and Mail versions.
The amount of knowledge here is too big ;-)
Any help is more than welcome.

Exactly the same problem here. Yesterday installed Lion, since then some attachments show for example in google mail web interface but not in mail (exactly as you describe above). Also Outlook 2010 receipents (windows) don't see the attachments that I send anymore....
I just switched to Microsoft Entourage. Sad story, had been using mail for a long time it it worked pretty well, but there is no way I can live with these issues. If anybody comes up with a solution please let me know.

Hello
You would not be able to add attachments from Safari on your iPad. You would need to setup your Yahoo mail in Mail on your iPad and then you can add your Photos and videos within your Photos app.

Why do the attachments I'm trying to send open in the body of my email rather than as an attachment icon?

I'm having trouble with attachments. When I select a document to attach, in either Word (doc) or pdf, sometimes the whole file opens in the body of the document, instead of just appearing as an attachment icon. I can't figure out why this only happens sometimes...seems to happen more with documents I've scanned in and saved as either Word or PDF files - what might I be doing wrong?

There is nothing wrong. I never understood why Apple Mail shows attachments randomly as icon or inline documents or a mix of them.
If you ctrl+click the PDF or Word document you should be able to choose from the menu, show as icon.
If you want to permanently show the attachments as icons, close Apple Mail, open Terminal and issue the following command
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes

I want messages with attachments to not be sorted and I want to see the attachment icon

Thanks for sending me the information on showing the attachment icon. I did what you suggested, and it did not work. And now, if I get an email with an attachment, I don't see the email--it is buried somewhere in my inbox. I used to be able to get messages with attachments and they would come in chronological order, and there would be an attachment icon. Can you please help?

Click on the header label DATE to sort by date. Click DATE a 2nd time to reverse the sort order.
This works on any header. The one to click on is where it is going to sort.
Do you have the attachment column showing? See image.
If not click the circled icon and add it.

Finally when I put a movie in full screen mode, the icon isn't visible, but as soon as I quit the full screen mode it reappears.
Thank in you in advance for your answers !
P-S : as an example, the icon stay displayed even when I am on the Dashboard.

CRM5: Edit an attached excel doc in the PCUI attachments tab

Hi Experts
I am using CRM 5.0, Portal 7.0
After attaching an excel document under the attachments tab in the PCUI for a lead transaction: when I open the document to from the attachments tab by clicking on the document link icon, the document opens fine and then I make some changes to the doc and thereafter close the excel doc, I get a prompt to save the doc, I click Yes but then the destination to where I must save the doc points to my Desktop.
So the changes do not take effect becoz document has not been saved in the correct destination. But in the GUI you can just click on the edit doc button and save it as versions or replace the existing doc.
How can I edit/change an attached excel doc in the PCUI attachments tab and save the changes so the attachment reflects changed doc in versions or even replacing the original??
Please help?
Regards
Pragasen

hi,
i had the same problem, but actual there is no solution according to SAP!
in pcui you can only work online on MS Word Data... Any other file types have to be saved locally and replace the file in crm.

Printing Emails that have pdf attachment icons

WHen I send an email that has a pdf attachment, I generally make sure that the attachment is "View as Icon". Even so, when I need to print the email for archive purposes, the printout always includes an image of the first page of the pdf, not the icon. This can result in unnecessary page prints.
In Lion, this used to happen only with pdf attachments that had only 1 page. In Mountain Lion, it seems to happen also with multi-page pdf attachments.
Is there a way to force print only the attachment icon in the email, not the full page?

To make the icon the default view of attachements, do the following:
Use the Terminal to set the preference.
Terminal is in Applications>Utilities. Open Terminal and type:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
That will make every attachment you send act like an attachment instead of a pretty unusable decoration.
If you decide this isn’t what you’re looking for, to restore inline attachment viewing type:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool false
Restart Mail and you’re back to normal.
Please tell me if that worked for you!

Is it possible to make the attachment icon on my journals form a compulsary step when creating a new manual journal entry?

Good day,
Our company uses EBS 11.5.10.2. The company has a policy whereby any new manual journal needs to have the supporting documentation attached to it, using the attachment icon in the task bar.
Users sometimes forget to do this, though. This has now prompted management to request that we try and make this process of attaching a document when creating a new manual journal compulsary to the process.
Is this possible on the current version we are running on?

Well, that depends on if you are using client/server or web. Currently there is a bug being investigated, which is preventing the cursor size from being altered. For client/server, do the following on the client machine (assuming Windows):
Control Panel > Accessibility Options > Display > Cursor Width
By increasing the width, the cursor will be more visible. The same is expected to work on the web, but currently is problematic and being investigated.

Remove the Attachment icon link in GP Process Runtime View

Hi, SDN Experts.
We find that the "Attachment" icon link actually involves too much "clicks" and "navigation to another views". So, we custom developed a Web Dynpro Component implementing GP Interface, with GP Attachment API to achieve the document upload and attachment purpose. And we also restrict the atatchment to one instead of multiple attachments.
Now, we want to remove the "Atatchment" icon link at the top of the GP Process Runtime View.
In GP Design Time, I tried to configure Runtime View so that it does not displaying the "Attachment" icon link, but I could not find one Generic View available for this option.
I wonder if I can custom configure a new Runtime View that is without the "Attachment" icon link?
Or is that any other alternative I can use to achieve the same purpose, including custom development of the runtime view?
Thanks,
KC

Hi,
After taking sometimes to look at how I may achieve to remove the attachment icon link, it seems like it requires some great effort to create another custom class to replace the existing one.
I wish there is a feature I can just turn on or off of this feature.
Thanks for spending time to reply my message.
I would find another alternative for this.
I will keep this post open for a while, hopefully there is someone able to give me some insight.
Thanks,
KC

Workflow attachment icon not showing

I have a help desk question. A user no longer sees the attachment icon in SBWP while others do. This workflow item does have an email and a document attached. Is there a setting I am missing?

This is a screenshot of how it looks for the user on our PRD system (no attachment icon present)
This is how it looks for the same user in our QA system (attachment icon is there)
The issue is only occurring in our PRD as stated earlier and it is only occurring for one of our agencies. Our security folks have completed authorizations traces in both systems and there is no information in the trace that would lead us to believe that it is an authorization problem.
The user is able to see attachments in her outbox, but not in her inbox. If she highlights the PO and clicks the "details" icon, the entry for "Attachments Exist" is also not there.
Is there a repository on the back-end in workflow that would store these documents? Maybe there is a broken connection/process from the email being sent to it being saved in said repository??

Hmm....
It all smells like third party software conflict. Can you think of any candidates for third party stuff that interacts with mail, attachments, the file system?
