Bad e-mail

I received an e-mail that crashes Mail every time I click on it. I've repaired permissions to no avail. Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Choose the email after it in your Mailbox, then use the up arrow and quickly press the delete key.

  • UTL_MAIL: ORA-29279..... 501 badly formatted MAIL FROM user - no " "

    Hi guys,
    I’m trying to redesign a current process that requires a large amount of manual intervention. As such I’d like to utilise UTL_MAIL to send notifications of system events but have been unable to get it to execute on my dev database (installed on my local PC).

    TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
    I’ve configured the smtp_out_server parameter:
    SQL> sho parameter smtp_out_server;
    NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
    smtp_out_server                  string        XXX.XXX.XXX.80:25
    And installed the required Oracle built in packages:
    SQL> @C:\oracle_builtins\utlmail.sql
    Package created.
    Synonym created.
    SQL> @C:\oracle_builtins\prvtmail.plb
    Package body created.
    No errors.
    I’ve compiled a simple test version of the code:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_email IS
    BEGIN
    UTL_MAIL.send(sender     => '[email protected]',
    recipients => '[email protected]',
    subject    => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
    message    => 'UTL_MAIL test body');
    END;
    +/+

    However when I execute it I get the attached error(s):

    I’ve also confirmed with our mail team that the sender is included in our firewall config and should not be being blocked……
    Any ideas? Does the package produce any log files / alerts that I could check or is it possible to execute in a verbose mode so I can debug?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Welcome to the forum.
    That error comes from your SMTP server, and it indicates there's something wrong with the email address.
    You could try the following and see if that works:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_email
    IS
    BEGIN
      UTL_MAIL.send(sender => 'test <[email protected]>',
                    recipients => '[email protected]',
                    subject => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
                    message => 'UTL_MAIL test body'
    END;
    /Some more inputs can be read here: Reg.SMTP Error while using UTL_MAIL in Oracle 10g
    Also, when you want post formatted examples, just use the {noformat}{noformat} tag before and after your examples.
    So, when you type:
    {noformat}select *
    from dual;{noformat}
    it will appear as:select *
    from dual;when you post it.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

  • My computer may be invaded by having opened up a bad e-mail.  What can i do do debug my imac.  Thank you

    My friend aleted me his computer was "spammed" and to not open up a certain e-mail.  Sadly i did and now my IMAC leopard is acting badly.  Can i get this straightened out myself without taking it in?  Thank you

    Your computer is very secure however using a little common sense is the best protection. Never download and install anything unless you know what it is first or if it comes from a trusted source. If you get a popup on your screen telling you to download load something then be very suspicious and research what is being suggested.
    As for the spinning beach ball that can be caused by many things, the most common is the computer needs a RAM upgrade or you have some process that dominating the computer's CPU. You can run Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and check to see how much FREE RAM it has (click the System Memory tab) and also look in the column that lists the processes being run to see if anything is using a lot of %CPU. As a rule of thumb if the FREE RAM is 500MB or less then you would probably benefit by upgrading the RAM. If you see a process using a large %CPU then quit the process. 
    Here is an article that explains more about the SSBBOD

  • How can I remove an e-mail address from iphoto 9.5.1

    I have one bad e-mail address in Iphoto and it wont let me correct it or enter an alternat e-mail address for that person.
    I have erased the offending address from gmail and any other place I could find it but could do it in iphoto.

    Where in iPhoto are you seeing an offending email address for a person? Has it been assigned to a face?
    Then you need to edit the address in Faces view.  Select the Faces stack on the cork board in Faces view, open the Info panel,  and click into the textfield for the email and edit it. Does that work?

  • Exchange Server e-mail only works on 4G or 3G 1% of the time - problem started suddenly

    I've been receiving Exchange Server (Outlook) e-mail on my DROID RAZR through 3G and 4G since I got the phone last November.  All of a sudden, over this past weekend,  I am unable to send/receive on that account using 4G/3G except very very sporadically (once or twice a day for a few seconds).  GMail is noticeably slower but appears to work, at least better than the Outlook account.
    Internet through the browser on the phone works perfectly fine.  However, I was unable to sync GMail contacts today, also.  Further, I just tried to check for System Updates through the phone and was told that "check for update is not available at this time."  I have no trouble making telephone calls or getting voice mail or texting.
    Any ideas?  "Sync e-mail over wi-fi only" is NOT on.
    I have changed nothing on my phone.  Nothing has changed with these e-mail accounts.  The ONLY thing that has changed recently (of which I am aware) is that I had a non-functioning phone (not this one!!) removed from my Verizon Wireless account about a week ago, and they said it would take a few days, which would coincide with this past weekend.  Is there some parameter that they could have changed at that time that would affect me receiving e-mail over 4G?  Again, it is not affecting my internet connection.
    My wifi is usually OFF because it runs the battery down, so that is how I know how bad e-mail over 4G suddenly became. The phone shows that it is getting 4G LTE.  (I'm beginning to think this is a hardware problem.)
    Thanks for any help you can offer.
    Loyal (for many years) Verizon Customer

    I understand how critical is to get emails while on our cellular network etymomel.
    First I recommend removing your exchange server email completely, then power off and on to reset your device and then add email back. I also recommend to clear Data and Cache from your email application Menu>SystemSettings>Apps>All>EmailAccoutns(may be more than one)>ClearData/Cache as applicable. Keep us posted.

  • MIME header missing "filename=" results in BAD messages

    I've been trying to track down several issues involving what appear to
    be MIME handling issues. We are running GroupWise v7.01 (we have not
    installed the "interim release" yet), and all components on the server
    are at that release level (MTA, POA, GWIA, WebAccess).
    One of the issues I am currently working on involves problems receiving
    attachments from an outside sender. Their attachments are readable if
    sent to an outside test account (i.e. - we've tested it with Yahoo
    web-based mail, and a RoadRunner POP3 account using Outlook as the client).
    The problem is that these e-mails either get dumped by the GWIA to the
    GWPROB directory, or the e-mails go through, but the attachments are
    corrupted (they do show up as attachments to the e-mail, but are
    unreadable).
    I haven't looked at why some e-mails go through and some don't, but I
    did find out why the attachments are unreadable on the delivered
    e-mails, and why the rest are just undeliverable. For whatever reason,
    the sender's mail server (or AV gateway or whatever else had a chance to
    touch the e-mail) is either not inserting, or is stripping out the
    "filename=" from the MIME header just before the encoded attachment.
    Adding this back into the message (by editing the original e-mail
    w/header, and dropping the modified message into the GWIA "RECEIVE"
    directory) fixes the attachment AND makes the e-mail deliverable.
    Below I have an example of a bad e-mail which was originally sent to our
    GWPROB directory, but was successfully delivered with a readable
    attachment through a separate POP3 account (RoadRunner). Following this
    "bad" e-mail example is the "fixed" version of that same e-mail, which
    was delivered successfully to our user, with the attachment also being
    readable.

    The only change I made, which both allowed the above e-mail to be
    delivered and made the attachment readable, was the addition of the
    "filename=" just before the file name on the line after the
    "Content-Disposition: attachment;".
    I did the same test with an e-mail that had the same "filename="
    missing, but somehow was successfully delivered to our user (again, the
    attachment was unreadable). Adding the "filename=" into the resent
    message did make the attachment readable.
    I haven't looked to see if the sender's system is actually non-compliant
    for excluding the "filename=" (I will be doing that later this evening),
    or whether this is a GWIA problem for not being able to handle this. I
    just wanted to throw this out there to see if anyone else has seen this.
    Does the "interim release" update by chance fix this?
    Thanks,
    Greg Niese

    Does this email come in directly to GWIA (or do you have a relay host in
    between)? I must say I've never experienced this problem on any of the GW
    systems I administer. Could you tell us what domain this is coming from?

  • [Solved] Any alternatives to a very buggy Evolution Mail 3.6?

    Hi All,
    I've kind-of had it with Evolution mail. I've been running 3.x for a long time, and it's always been a very "klunky" experience, with constant issues of hanging, bad HTML mail rendering, and the occasional (twice in a year) need to fix it in the terminal after upgrades (completely corrupted mail stores, etc).
    The reason why I put up with it, is that I really want to at least use an application suite where my contacts are centrally managed (Evolution Data Server) and other apps (like Empathy chat) can re-use the central contacts store. Other mail clients manage their own contacts internally in an isolated island (e.g Mozilla Thunderbird). I really want to use a Linux desktop environment where the *basics* (such as centralised contacts) are in place. I mean, we are in 2012. I've been promised flying cars and a semantic desktop :-)
    After the update to GNOME 3.6, I have well and truly had it with Evolution. Every now and then it starts to recursively spawn "Saving user interface state" and "Unknown background task" tasks that just bring it to its knees, requiring a process kill. It cannot be regarded as anything more than alpha quality software, and it's starting to cost me a lot of lost productivity.
    This is only e-mail, right? It's been around since before 1980. Surely there are alternatives for an intelligent, integrated suite of e-mail/calendar/contacts on the linux Desktop? What do you gentleman and ladies use? Mutt is starting to look real good, and that's just sad for a previous Apple user that switched to Arch Linux (which has generally been a wonderful experience in all non-mail aspects).
    I'm at my wits' end, and looking for some advice from fellow users of the thinking man's Linux...
    Surely GNOME/Evolution can't be "it" in terms of offering competition to the Apple/Microsoft desktop?

    I believe you are stuck choosing between desktop integration and performance/quality; apparently "both" is not an available option.
    Not necessarily integrated with every app, but integrateable at least. Something using an infrastructure designed for integration, with basic integration already done between the basic components mentioned in my original post. I feared that I would have to choose between quality and desktop integration - this really saddens me, and must be a big stumbling block for the adoption of the Linux desktop.

    You may already have the best available.
    I believe desktop integration is losing steam as Google and similar ventures take the integration outside the machine. A bad plan IMO, constructed to support disparate and poorly-built operating systems (including those on phones) but at the same time taking users' data away from them.
    You are right, I don't want my data taken away from me, and it goes against my grain to rely on a free online service of a publicly-traded corporation 10,000km away from me for my personal communication needs. I want to own and manage my data, and I suspect so do many other Linux users...
    I can only hope a renaissance of sorts will happen when people realise that they are no longer in control of their own data, and that hopefully then we will see the emergence of better desktop communication in Linux. I don't care about the masses, who will probably never care about this. I do care about the fellow computer geeks who understand and appreciate this, and are in search of something that at least matches what a Mac/Windows box could do a decade or so ago :-)
    For the time being, I guess I have to slog it out with Evolution, and start filing bug reports in the hope that the quality may one day improve.
    What surprises me, is that this thread has not drawn a single reply from a fellow frustrated user. I'd have loved a "me too" or two - why does everybody put up with this? You can't all be happy to be stuck in 1990 as far as integration of desktop communication is concerned? I have a lot of respect for minimalist, powerful, single-purpose programs, yet such a setup demands good integration between those components. Are there at least some forward-thinking projects on the go somewhere that is working towards this that anybody knows of?
    I thank you for your reply :-)

  • Groups within groups broken in Mavericks Mail?

    In Mavericks 10.9, it appears there's a problem if a Contacts group contains other Contacts groups.
    Example:
    Within Contacts, create Small Group with three contacts.
    Within Contacts, create Big Group with six contacts.
    Within Contacts, create Huge Group.
    Drag Small Group and Big Group to Huge Group.
    In Contacts, click on Huge Group. It appears to contain Small Group and Big Group.
    Click on either Small Group or Big Group and Contacts reports "No Cards".
    Open Mail.
    Make a New Message.
    In the To: field type "Huge Group".
    No addresses appear.
    In Contacts, a control-click on Huge Group shows a pop-up menu with command Send Email to "Huge Group" dimmed.
    Is this happening to others?

    What does it say in the "charset=" header
    charset="iso-8859-1"
    But another mail has nothing there, only "Content-Type: text/html";
    The important thing is not whether this charset is correct or not. The important thing is that Apple has made my mail experience worse by this "upgrade", for no good reason!
    Earlier, I could change encoding of mails (perhaps a badly encoded mail), but Apple has taken away that posibility for no good reason. It only affects old mails, before UTF became common. It is typical of Apple not to care about history, but for me, old mails constitute valuable history.
    Rather than taking away an option to change the encoding (or interpretation of an encoding) of a mail, I think Apple should have enhanced the feature: Sometimes, it happens that only the subject line is erronously interpretated (mime endoding of non-us-ascii characters), and I would like to fix that. It has never been possible. (This problem can even happen today with some new mails auto-generated by machines, such as auto-replies.)

  • Mail As Text Pad

    Is there a way now to write personally important notes and save them without giving much though to the work flow of the Save process? Without numerous clicks to re-familiarize the 'new' user-interface styles and gimmicks? Without required looks and styles of the current Mail application/ Note?
    Mail in 10.4 OSX allowed used to write 'notes' using New Message-- Also allowing user to easily change format to plain text and purge all the geeky stuff. Also to Save, all in 2 steps-- No danger of accidentally sending the message to some unintended person-- No danger of using Save, later to discover the important text was in fact not to be found. The 10.6 Mail looses saved New Messages-- which are not sent, which bear no addressee. They vanish, too bad for the unwary.
    Mail has offered the yellow notes in 10.5 and 10.6 OSX. However these seem to allow only complex formatting. If text is quoted from a web page, the font style, hot links and who knows what are all presently mandatory-- Even if the user was simply wanting to re-edit one's own previous writing, (in plain text). Getting plain text requires: Copy text, New Message, change to plain text format, recopy, switch back to Note or where ever else, Paste plain text. (In order to exclude excess geeky baggage).
    [Is there a better, simple but powerful text software for 'personalized notes' with easier work flows? Referring to the Notes application-- Again, reformatting is multi step-- Plain Text in one step is not allowed. Too bad that Mail has caved in to mandatory, latest, geeky, stylizations, with major OS upgrades. Instead of keeping personalization of the user-interface. Is there no longer a 'sanctity' of personal preference in new computers? Are we doomed to a future of impersonalized, cloned styling in our own, personal works? (Will we ultimately stop buying new computers for this reason? Perhaps dig up 10.4 OS X disc and use that in future?)]
    Thanks for any insights offered.-- Bo Atkinson

    like the html added to my message-- Where did that come from??? I wonder. Oh well.

  • Korean language broken in Mavericks mail

    Hi there!
    I used both English and Korean language.
    Sometimes, mail contents in Korean are broken when I receive email from Korean friends.
    I tried to view message in raw source....no improvement.
    Someone suggested text encoding...but I do not know how to change text encoding in Mavericks.

  • Why am I unable to receive incoming mail?

    Why am I unable to receive e-mail but I can send it? Mail version 3.6 for Macbook.

    I took it to the Apple store and it had them all stumped. They kept saying I had to have a "bad" e-mail that was preventing others from passing. They tried to erase all e-mails but it still wouldn't work. When they were just about ready to give up the man decided to wipe out anything having to do with e-mail-and start a new account, so I lost messages, but once he cleared all e-mail related items on the laptop, the mail went through!!!
    I haven't had problems since- so....I hope that helps!!

  • Emoticons for mac mail

    Does anybody know where I can get emoticons (smiley faces) for mac mail?
    Too bad mac mail doesn't have that feature, one that stupid pc email software has build in.

    They are easy enough to google for.
    In Mail you have to add them as attachments.
