Can I force mail to be sent in HTML format (ActiveSync, EX2010)

We use a corporate disclaimer, signature, logo at the end of all our emails, but when emails are sent via iPhone, the recipient only receives a "?" in place of the signature.
I'm assuming this is due to the message being sent out in either Rich Text or Plain Text.
Is there a way for me to have our corporate owned iPhones send messages in HTML so that this signature will appear in all outgoing email? I have set my ActiveSync rules to allow HTML, but I'm thinking that is only for incoming, since this isn't working for me.
I appreciate your help in advance.

We are facing the same issue. We have a transport rule that grabs the user's info out of Active Directory and populates the fields we tell it to and then adds an image of our company logo at the bottom. We have looked at how other companies have done it and it seems like they are attaching several images to each message. I would rather avoid that kind of overhead.
The signature works fine in Outlook, but when Apple users send a message, the link for the image shows up as a link instead of the image. If you use any html formatting in the email, it gets sent as html and the signature shows up fine. I tested this by just changing some text to bold. Several of our execs use iPhones and Macs and asking them to do this just to 'trick' it into html format isn't going to work.

Can I force Mail to download ALL RSS feeds from all time?

When I subscribe to an RSS feed in Mail (OS X Lion) it typically gives the last 20 feeds published. The same happens in Safari.
This limit is set by Mail and not by the server, because Google Reader can show all historical feeds, right back in time.
On Mail in Snow Leopard, when you moved the RSS feed to 'Show in Inbox', it downloaded all old RSS posts, rather like rebuilding an email account. However, the same does not happen on Lion.

Please ignore this question. Or tell me how to delete it.

Impossible to send a mail with a message in HTML format

Hi
I try to send a message in HTML format. Here is the code :
    public void sendMessage(String subject, String message, String to, String cc, String bcc) throws MessagingException {
         MimeMessage mimeMessage = mailSender.createMimeMessage();
         MimeMessageHelper mimeMessageHelper = new MimeMessageHelper(mimeMessage, true, "UTF-8");
        if(to!=null && !to.equals("")){
             mimeMessageHelper.setTo(to);
        if(cc!=null && !cc.equals("")){
             mimeMessageHelper.setCc(cc);
        if(bcc!=null && !bcc.equals("")){
             mimeMessageHelper.setBcc(bcc);
        mimeMessageHelper.setSubject(subject);
        mimeMessageHelper.setText(message,true);
        mimeMessageHelper.setFrom(from);
        logger.info("host = "+mailSender.getHost());
        logger.info("Port = "+mailSender.getPort());
        //logger.info("UserName = "+mailSender.getUsername());
        //logger.info("Password = "+mailSender.getPassword());
            mailSender.send(mimeMessage);
    }and the message is the following :
String message = "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">"+ "<htmlxmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"><head><head/><body>"
+messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.messagetosend.part1", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+ user.getFirstName()+" "+ user.getLastName()+",\n"
+ messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.messagetosend.part2", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+"\n"
+ messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.messagetosend.part3", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+ newPassword+"\n"
+ messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.messagetosend.part4", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+"\n"
+ messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.messagetosend.part5", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+"\n"
+ messageSource.getMessage("startpeople.securim.homepage.internet.address", null, Locale.ENGLISH)+"</body></html>";according to what I found on internet, the method MimeMessageHelper.setText(message,true); specifies that the message is sent in HTML format ( second argument is boolean "true" saying it is a HTML message ).
But I don't get the message in HTML format. Anyone can help me ? thank you in advance

MimeMessageHelper appears to be a Spring Framework class; better to ask your
question in their support forum.
Of course, you don't need to use MimeMessageHelper to create a simple html message,
and in your case it doesn't seem to be making things any simpler. See the JavaMail FAQ
and the demo programs included with JavaMail for simple examples of how to create an
html message.

How can I force Mail to ask me to choose outgoing server each time I send an email?

I work for 3 different companies and I have 3 different mail accounts in my Mail for each of them. It happens to me very often that my email is sent from the wrong account, causing me a lot of trouble. This is of course my human mistake, but I want to limit this and would like to know if there is an option to force Mail to ask me for mail server each time I send an email?

Mail/Preferences/Accounts/Account/Account Information - try checking use only this server.
If that doesn't work properly, select the server, click Edit SMTP Server List and set up the server with your e-mail address so each one is named differently. Test.

Can't see mails that were sent in Sent folder.

I can't find the mails that were sent since Apr.14. No changes were made to Account Settings > Copies & Folders. No quota alerts are received either. I am on Thunderbird 24.2.0. Please help to fix this.

Right click the folder, select properties and then the repair button.

How can I force Mail to send email requesting a server DSN?

I would like mail to send every message with a server DSN request (the RFC1891 type). I found "tech savvy" info on this archived thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1965944?start=0&tstart=0
But, I am not a technical person, so, how can I get mail to do this in practise? Or would there be a utility/add-on/plug-in that allows for this?

First thing to try: go to System Preferences>iCloud and uncheck 'Mail' in the list there. Then re-check it. Give it time to settle in. Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts (not 'Accounts' in the 'Mail' menu) and select your iCloud account. You should see this:
'Email address' (greyed out) is your login - this should be your @me.com address. The 'Alias' drop-down menu should both versions of your address - @me.com and @icloud.com/ - plus any aliases you have set up.
(the image is from Mavericks, I would expect Yosemite to be much the same).
If this hasn't worked, try clicking the Sign Out button in System Preferences>iCloud. It wouldn't hurt to reboot; then sign back in again. Your iCloud synced data will disappear when you sign out but will reappear when you sign back in (give it time).

How to send mail using transaction SBWP in HTML format?

Dear All,
When a mail is sent through SBWP transaction in HTML format,
it is finally displayed in text format with html tags, instead of being displayed in html format.
how to retain its HTML format?
Please suggest some solution.
Thanks in advance.

Presuming you've already paired the bluetooth, just tap in the text box and you should see a cursor where you can start typing.
Beyond that, what are you seeing or not seeing? how is it acting?

Apple Mail.app in Leopard removes HTML formatting

Hi,
This is not something I see universally, but in many of my mails (Exchange account, company ID, hence, can't post screenshots), sometimes, Mail.app strips the html formatting! Sometimes, something as simple as a table is missing. All I see is the text that would have been inside it. The background colours, etc in certain mails also sometimes go missing.
Only when someone replies to the same mail and has the original mail included, do I see the formatting!
Also, when I open my mailbox in Thunderbird or a browser, I can see the formatting correctly in the same mail!
Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
Anup

Mail > Preferences > Composing.
You have the option there to send and receive in plain text which will remove all formatting, maybe selected...Change to what you wish to happen

How can i make a form in access into html format?

You can avoid the Ken Burns effect, but it would be a lot of work:
See: http://help.apple.com/imovie/ipad/2.0/index.html#knac3eec39c6
If you don’t want the Ken Burns effect applied to a photo, set the image position and zoom level to be the same for the start and end points.
Adjust the movement of photos with the Ken Burns effect
iMovie applies the Ken Burns effect to the photos you add to your project. With this effect, the camera appears to sweep across and zoom in on the photo. If there are people in the photo, iMovie uses face detection to keep faces within the viewing area.
You can adjust the Ken Burns effect so that the motion starts and ends on the parts of the image you specify.
In the timeline, tap the photo you want to adjust.The Ken Burns effect controls appear in the lower-right corner of the image in the viewer.
To set the way the photo is framed at the beginning, tap the Start button .
Pinch to zoom in or out, then drag the image in the viewer to frame it the way you want.
To set the way the photo is framed at the end, tap the End button .
Pinch to zoom in or out, then drag the image in the viewer to frame it the way you want.
To close the controls, tap the Ken Burns Effect button , or tap outside of the clip.
If you don’t want the Ken Burns effect applied to a photo, set the image position and zoom level to be the same for the start and end points.

Can I sort mail by its 'sent' date?

Can I sort the Mail in my inbox by the date it was sent to me rather then when it arrived?

No, but there should not be a significant difference between the two.
"The sent date, also known as the header date, is the date the archived email was created and sent from the user’s email client. The received date is the date the email server received the email from the user’s email client, which is commonly referred to as the server received date. In a perfect internal environment there is not a large difference, perhaps seconds or minutes between the times, but the times will be different if there were any problems in the email client delivering the message to the email server"

How can I make mail retry sending messages in the Outbox?

Howdy all,
As the title says how can a force Mail to try to resend the messages in the outbox? I use my MacBook Pro in a number of different environments and when I am on one flakey access point in particular or when I have forgotten to open Safari to reauthorize recently on another network Mail will fail to contact the SMTP server. When this happens my message gets stuck in the outbox to be sent later. My problem is that I do not know how to get it out of there effectively.
Once I have fixed the transitive error in the network (or or the problem fixes itself) how do I get the messages out of the inbox? At this point I can send more messages with no problem and they will happily go out but those in the queue just sit there.
Now, I have tried a number of things like quitting and restarting Mail, bringing the various network interfaces back up and down, and other things to try to trick Mail into sending the queued messages but that has been haphazard at best. I can't help thinking that there is something obvious I am missing.
Thanks for any help!

Highlight the message in the inbox, double-click on it, and click on the "send" icon
You may even consider BCCing yourself to see whether the message actually goes or not, and you just have an artifact copy stuck in your outbox that you could then just delete.
Otherwise, copy&paste the stuck message body into a new message, and delete the stuck one out of the outbox before attempting to send the new one

How can i view mail mailbox folders on my iphone

I have created folders or mailboxes on my iMac. When I move mail to one of these folders I would still like to be able to access it from my iphone but can't seem to do that. From my iphone, I can only view mail in "inbox", "sent", etc. but not folders/mailboxes I created to help me organize my mail.
Thanks,
bj

Thanks for looking. My mail account is a Gmail Google IMAP account. It is the only account I have and is working well with Apple Mail. But I created some folders/mailboxes in Apple Mail to organize my mail with, and on the iMac this all works fine. But when I check my Mail on my iPhone, I can not check the emails that I moved to the various folders I created on the iMac. ??? I'm starting to think there is something simple I'm missing here but not sure. Thanks

Force Mail (Yosemite) to display all attachments as icons all the time?

In Yosemite, I need to get rid of Mail's previews of attachments that appear in outgoing email as the previews seem to cause problems for some of my mail recipients. How can I force Mail to display all attachments as icons? Currently the only way is to right click each attachment every time - it's a waste of time to do this all day long.

Mail only previews single-page documents. They should be simply an attachment to the recipient. If they are problematic, then be sure you select the Edit menu, Attachments > Always send Windows friendly .... If there is still a problem then compress the attachment before sending it - CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Compress from the context menu.

Can't close mail, not even force quit....

I tried sending a mass email through the Mail application. It came back cannot send the message using the server smtp.aol.com then my email address. There's a drop down of the hundreds of emails I sent in BCC and I can't reach the bottom of the drop down. Nor can I close out the email. Even if I do a force quit of mail, and then come back to mail, this email returns. Any thoughts? Anyone ever have this issue?

If you got a message that says you can't send it through the AOL server, then it never got sent; it was either bounced back to you, or the server refused it after getting the To: and BCC information.
If the email is in your Inbox, you can open ~/Library/Mail/Your AOL Account Name/INBOX.mbox/Messages and delete the most recent message, then restart Mail and the problem should be resolved. If it was never sent anyway, it would be in that same path, except in the Drafts.mbox/Messages and you can still delete the most recent one from there.
To avoid this problem, don't send hundreds of emails at once unless you know your email provider actually allows this. Send the support people an email and ask them, or call them if you have a phone number.

I had over 200 e-mails. I went to my webmail and deleted most of them. However, my iPhone still shows 200 e-mails. How can I force my iPhone to update from the e-mail server? Or will I have to delete each e-mail from my iPhone as well? Thanks.
