Attachment issues in Mail and Outlook

We recently started to upgrade computers to Mountain Lion (10.8.2) and have discovered a frustrating issue. Sending attachments from the mail app (.jpgs, sending zipped files is not an option) to PC's running Outlook (all current versions I believe), the jpgs come through as embedded, not as attachments.
Although this would seem minor, there is no way to:
A. Grab multiple files and download them. It's "right click file 1", "right click file 2" etc. and then B. The files then lose their original names, rendering them useless for the back and forth editing we need to do.
I've tried changing from Rich Text to Plain Text, Send Windows friendly attachments On and Off, and every other work around offered here:
How can I prevent mail attachments embedding when sending mail
How can I prevent mail attachments embedding when sending mail short of purchasing the "Attachment Tamer" because, come on, Mail has always worked before, why do I need to buy an add-on to do my work now?
Any thoughts or ideas, would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Big subject, so I'll let Kurt explain it;

How can I read my incoming emails in one folder?Like I do in Live mail and Outlook express.

Now we can only read emails in different folders if I am managing multiple email accounts.
It does not feel so comfortable as we use Live mail and Outlook express.

'''Unified Inbox for pop and Imap mail accounts:'''
If you use the Unified folder view, this will show an Inbox with all emails from all accounts, with sub folder Inboxes for the individual Inboxes for the various accounts. Then you can choose to view the collective Inbox or the individual Inbox.
This method can be chosen simply and quickly.
* View > folders > Unified
'''Setting up Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox.'''
Pop mail accounts can be set up to use a Global Inbox in Local Folders.
Imap mail accounts cannot be set up to use Global Inbox, but can use the Unified view.
To change Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox, you would need to move all emails into Local Folders Inbox.
Then change the settings for each pop mail account.
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the pop mail account
click on 'Advanced' button
select 'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders)
click on OK
You need to do this for each Pop mail account.
Then close Thunderbird. You must do this before downloading anything otherwise the emails may continue to go to the wrong Inbox.
Wait a few moments for Thunderbird to fully close and then restart Thunderbird.
Please read more info on global inbox here:

Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message that says in order to use the new features, I must import existing messages into the new version first in order to use mail 4.5. Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7. Once it imports I am to click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel of death and it also says you cannot use mail until the import is finished? Now What?

Is Mail still "spinning"? If it's been doing that for a while, I'd kill it, using either Activity Monitor or the OS X application picker. Then relaunch Mail and see what happens.
Two "by the ways":
1) Your system details mention an PPC iMac. Since a non-Intel Mac can't run OS X 10.6, you seem to have another Mac. You might want to consider updating your system details.
2) You seem to have been misled by the poor labeling of the message composition fields on this forum into trying to enter your entire post into the "subject" field. In the future, just enter a summary of your post there and the main text into the field below it.

Mail And Outlook 2003 issues

Very odd one I can't pin down. There are a few people when receiving mail from my 10.5 machine in apple mail receive the email as an attachment / html link.
I sent it to my machine no problems but to others it shows as this weird attachment / link. Any ideas how to solve this.
Receivers use outlook 2003 generally and my PC version is 2003 so don't know what the option is to stop this. They all receive HTML etc.
Any ideas >

I have searched all over the net and I know it is probably an issue or setting with Outlook but though somebody may have seen this or at least know what is going on.
The email is sent but is just a link / attachment for Outlook users in the email body - no text etc. They have to open it up. Asked them to check for HTML settings.
Anyone got any pointers.

Has anyone had recent issues with iCloud mail and Outlook 2011?

Two days ago without warning when sending an e-mail from Outlook 2011 from a MacBook Pro running 10.8. (Have a .mac account), I had an error pop up, see below.
Tried entering the password but the same error popped up. Thought there might be an error with the keychain so verified and ran a repair. Still the error continued. I checked that the password was still working and logged into iCloud. I then launched Mac Mail and this worked fine and so also my iPhone / iPad etc. Nothing I did made it possible to send e-maills from my .mac account although I could receive them.
For the last couple of days I have been using my MacBook AIr for sending mails for the same account via Outlook 2011. This has been working fine all day until 25 mins ago when the same error message popped up on this Mac too. Went through the same set of tests and again Mac Mail works and so does the password.
Have tried to Google for a solution but can't find anything relevant. Could this be Microsoft trying to cause problems for Apple users, some rogue update, iCloud security certificate issue, or something more sinister. Any suggestions for a fix gratefully received, as currently I can't use Outlook 2011 on either Mac.

Hi guys!
I am also having big trouble syncing my iCloud acc. I am able to send email, but i cannot recieve any. I have tried almost everything. I have tried using p01, p02, p99 servers, without solving the problem. I have tryed typing "INBOX" and "/" in IMAP root, still not working. Have anyone got a solution?
I am using:
OS X 10.9.1
Outlook 2011 for mac v. 14.3.8
I really hope someone has got an answer!
Sorry the text in the screenshots are in danish. I hope you get the idea anyway.

Issues with Mail and SMTP and Gmail Accounts

So this isn't a question....more like a solution that I had to figure out.
We have multiple gmail accounts in our family and after upgrading to OSC Yosemite our gmail accounts wen't haywire. My wife was sending emails that eventually were sent from my gmail account (mass neighborhood emails at that.....and all replies came to me instead of her). I spent about 2 hours investigating and put together several different threads that finally fixed out problem. The root of the issue is that you can share the same Incoming Mail Server for all of your gmail accounts and your mail will go to the accounts that it is supposed to go to, but you have to have individual Outgoing Mail Servers for each of your accounts otherwise all outgoing mail will come from one account only. I don't know why this happened, it is a pain in the butt, but here's how I fixed it with 3 gmail accounts running through 1 mac.
1st - you need to remove all of your gmail accounts from mail via Internet Accounts in Settings. Just highlight the account and hit the minus sign at the bottom. You won't lose anything if you have your gmail settings set to default which backs everything up to Google's servers....it will all load back to you mac and it will all be available online at gmail.com
2nd - you need to add back all of your accounts one at a time (and follow all of the following steps for each account before adding another). Select the plus sign and choose Google (for gmail accounts only).
3rd - Give your gmail account a recognizable name in the "Name" field (if you have multiple Gmail accounts to add, you will want to distinguish between them).
4th - type in your username ([email protected]) and password. Make sure to add the suffix @gmail.com.
5th - Check the boxes that you want to add to your mac (mail, contacts, calendars, messages, notes).
6th - Click the "Details" button to ensure that you have an adequate description (see # 3 above) if you are going to have multiple gmail accounts to add.
7th - Open the Mail app.
8th - From Mail Preferences/Account Information Tab - make sure that you account is Enabled (check box next to "Enable Account", make sure that you have an adequate description name, email address is correct, Incoming mail server is imap.gmail.com, Username is your normal gmail login username (absent any suffix like .gmail.com), password is your gmail password.
9th - Then, from Preferences click on the Advanced tab and....Uncheck "Automatically detect and maintain account settings".
10th - Then, go back to Account Information Tab and.....from the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) dropdown box, select Edit SMTP List....
11th - You need to create an individual SMTP Server Account for each gmail account that you plan to add.
12th - To do this click the plus button. Server Name should always be smtp.gmail.com. Type in your own Description (I recommend naming it after the gmail account that you plan to attach it to).
13th - TLS Certificate should be "None"
14th - Click the Advanced Tab - From here, uncheck the box for "Automatically detect and maintain account settings". Then make sure Port is 587 (default is 25 for some ungodly reason). Check the box for "Use SSL".
15th - Set authentication to "Password". User name MUST contain a suffice (i.e [email protected]). Password is your normal gmail password.
16th - Click OK.
17th - Now your back at Preferences/Account Information - Link your account to the SMTP server that you just created by using the dropdown box next to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP).
18th - Save all changes and close out of Mail App.
19th - Restart Mail and recheck steps 8-15....for some reason my passwords kept getting erased, but they eventually saved and took.
20th - Add another gmail account by following these steps and then recheck all along the way for passwords, suffixes, everything. You will want to make sure that your accounts are all properly linked to their respective Outgoing Mail Servers (hence the distinct naming descriptions).
21st - Once you have added multiple accounts send email between them to make sure that they are being sent from and received to the correct accounts.

Wow! Oh my goodness Patrick, thank you so much man. That's a ton of informatiion to take the time to write out step by step and share with strangers. I really, really am grateful to you. I've been dealing with this for a month, half the month I kept changing my passwords and kept assuming I was making some mistake. It used to work fine. About a week ago I started looking for a solution and couldn't find one that worked.
You have changed that sir! I'm good to go, stress level will lower when I am on my Mac, and I'm so glad to not have all these messages popping back up that I was done with!
Muchos Gracias Amigo! Owe you one...

UAG problems with OSX - same problem with Mac Mail and Outlook 2011 (via EWS)

Hi folks,
I'm trying to fix the last snagging issue I have with OSX clients in a UAG / Exchange 2010 deployment:
When trying to connect Mac Mail or Outlook 2011 the connections are very slow to start up, both at initial config and thereafter.
On connection I see lots of the same error re Session Cookies in UAG and no connection in the mail client. If I leave it for a few minutes, sometime many minutes, the errors stop and I eventually get a working connection.
The error is:
"Sesson Attempted to Access Restricted Application"
User with source IP address x.x.x.x tried to access application Exchange EWS that was restricted that was restricted for the session. This might indicate an intrusion attempt by misusing the session cookie.
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this ?
Many thanks
Steve

Ruud, no, we didn't find a solution, or rather our solution (so far) is to tell users not to use Mac Mail and to use Outlook 2011 instead, which seems to work fine (after some Office updates!)...and we haven't upset anyone with that requirement
(yet).
There are some very long discussions on Apple support forums about the whole Mavericks / Mac Mail / Exchange 2010 issues.
I do hope to have another go at this problem sometime soon, I'm sure there must be a solution (and my money says it relates our hardware load balancers).

BB e-mail and outlook

My e-mails come thru my outlook and then hits my BB. When it hits my blackberry it changes my unread e-mails on outlook to read but I never opened up the outlook e-mails. Can someone help me????

Hello kbmousa and welcome to the forums!
What type of email account is this? Is this on an Exchange server if it is what version of Exchange are you using?
There are a few KBs with regards to this you may want to look at the following links
Email messages accessed via POP from a Microsoft Exchange Server are marked as read
Email messages are marked as Read in a Microsoft Exchange 5.5 Outlook Web Access account

Using this FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 you can send in the RECEIVERS you have to assign as below.
RECEIVERS-COPY = 'X' u201C Carbon Copy (CC)
RECEIVERS-BLIND_COPY = 'X' u201C Blind Carbon Copy (BCC)

Can same mail accounts be set up on Mail and Outlook?

After migrating PC files over to new iMac I have just about worked out where my documents are now my problem is that my two email accounts have set up in Mail and I want them in Outlook but Outlook won't recognise my passwords! Anyone out there know why this is and how I set up my email accounts on Outlook - I need all of my folders and history from the PC to transfer to Outlook too - unfortunately folders are lost in Mail. Is the problem that the accounts are already set up on Mail and can't be set up on Outlook too? Obviously I am grasphing at straws here...please help thanks .

No one got any ideas ? Have i explained my problem well ?
I guess another way of phrasing the question would be if I were to re-format my hide drive and re-install everything, what files would I need to save in order for my itunes to work in exactly the same way and have the same settings as before the re-format.

Problems with attached documents in Mail and Docs To Go

Hello everybody.
I've found a problem with attached documents in Mail. In fact, if I click on attached documents with .doc (microsoft office word 97-2004) and files in .docx Office Open .xml, the iPad doesn't open them, also if I click in "Open with Docs To Go (which should support these files' format)".
How can I do? There's an application or another way to open these files?
Other Informations:
Docs To Go version: 5.2.2

Update the patch to the Sapgui.

Very Odd Issue Using Mail and Comcast

I have been unable to send email from my Comcast email account in Apple Mail. It shows emails as having been sent fine, but they don't arrive at the other persons mailbox. I have tried sending test emails to myself, to no avail. I tried trashing the preference file, which cleared up the issue, only for it to return several hour (or even minutes) later. This issue is particularly annoying because one would never know it exists. All emails sent from this account appear to send fine, with no errors being reported, but never are sent. I can send emails fine from my gmail account using Apple Mail, and for experimental purposes I tried Thunderbird, which worked fine. The SMTP server is clearly not the issue. I tried other servers, including the local server, using RapidoSMTP, but still, the same issue. Just a note: I can recieve emails on that account, but not send them. My installed plugins for Mail are: AttachmentScanner, MailFollowup, and Growl Mail. If anyone can offer any tips on resolving this weird issue, please share them.

If Mail put the message in Sent, that means the outgoing (SMTP) server told Mail that the message would be delivered. If the message never reached its destination, it could be because the SMTP server didn’t fulfill its promise or because the message was filtered out by either the recipient’s incoming mail server or the recipient’s mail client for some (probably spam-related) reason.
Check that your System Preferences > Date & Time settings are correct. An invalid timestamp in the message headers could be the reason one of the servers involved is rejecting those messages.
It’s strange that the problem happens with Mail, but not with other mail clients such as Thunderbird, though. I can only guess there is something about the way the messages are composed/encoded when you use Mail that causes them to be considered spam at some point. If you compose those messages as Rich Text, try composing them as Plain Text instead.
