Cannot move mail with attachments

I was helping a friend prepare to eventually delete her hotmail account from Mail on her iPad. She did not want to lose any mails, so we were moving messages from her hotmail inbox to her gmail inbox. Moving the messages was uneventful until we came to messages with attachments. Any mails with attachments will not move. When trying to do so, we get an error message that simply says the mails cannot be moved...but gave no reason why (really helpful). They're simply stuck in the hotmail Inbox and cannot be moved out. Anybody have a clue what's happening here?
In a worse case scenario I told her we could forward those messages to her new account and then just delete them from her hotmail account. By doing so we'll save the messages, but the messages won't appear in the new inbox according to when they were originally sent, but rather by when they were forwarded. Being able to move them would be the proper solution, but it simply won't work.

Perhaps the mail server has a size limit that it allows. Might try a free web service and see if that will work for those attachments.

  • In Exchange 2013 i cannot open mails with attachments greater than 19.6 MB in EWS or OWA

    Hello,
    i have in Exchange 2013 CU3 on Windows 2012 the following problem :
    When backup mails using EWS i get the message " EWS Error Code : ErrorMessageSizeExceeded." in mails with attachments greater than 20.137 KB ( 19.6 MB).
    Then I checked all the settings of the EWS , but the defaults are already significantly higher than these 19.6 MB (Base64 approximately 26.5 MB)
    web.config ( maxAllowedContentLength = " 85000000 ").
    Settings of the MaxSendSize and ReceiveSize are 300MB .
    All requestfiltering settings in IIS are set to 85MB.
    When i access via EMS or OWA , file attachments over 19.6 MB can not be opened .
    However, the preview shows in OWA the correct mail including attachment and it can be saved from the preview up to the set maximum size.
    By double clicking on an email in OWA bigger than 19.6 MB i get the following error message:
    "Error : Your request can not be completed right now Please try again later . . "
    Send and receive mail can also be up to maxsize .
    When accessing via Outlook , this problem does not occur.
    i hope anyone here can help me
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    To change the maximum message size for Outlook Web App clients, you need to change the value of
    maxAllowedContentLength, maxRequestLength and both instances of
    maxReceivedMessageSize by editing %ExchangeInstallPath%ClientAccess\Owa\web.config in notepad.
    To change the maximum message size for Exchange Web Services clients, you need to change the value of
    maxAllowedContentLength and all instances of maxReceivedMessageSize="67108864" in %ExchangeInstallPath%ClientAccess\exchweb\ews\web.config.
    When you are finished, save and close the Web.config file. Also need to restart IIS by running the following command:
    IISReset /noforce
    For more information about Configure Client-Specific Message Size Limits on Client Access Servers, please refer to:

  • Geary cannot send mail with attachments

    I've been using Geary, a mail client, and I've never been able to send any mail containing attachments. The same mail, meanwhile, gets through if I use Thunderbird. The exact messages which Geary posts if I run it through a terminal are:
    ** Message: smtp-client-session.vala:80: Unable to QUIT: Error writing data to TLS socket: The specified session has been invalidated for some reason.
    ** Message: smtp-client-session.vala:88: Unable to disconnect: Unable to shutdown socket: Transport endpoint is not connected
    These two messages keep repeating. There is no problem with mails not containing attachments. Has anyone else had the same problem? Or is this a bug I should be reporting upstream?

    Perhaps the mail server has a size limit that it allows. Might try a free web service and see if that will work for those attachments.

  • Cannot send mail with attachments after 3.0

    Upgraded to 3.0 last night. At first I thought I couldn't send any mail at all, but after testing this some more I've found that I can send and receive email from my mobileme account, but if there is an attachment, (pic etc) mail hesitates then closes without sending anything.
    My other email account has no problems at all with this. Just MobileMe.

    I am also having this problem. Mine keeps saying that it can't connect to the SMTP server that I have turned off. I was told by Apple that I had to use the AT&T SMTP server which fixed my problem before. However, I downloaded 3.0 yesterday and now it refuses to even try the AT&T server even though it's the only one I have turned on. I can send text emails without any issue.

    - Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
    System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

    Hi ,
    There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
    However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
    I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
    Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

  • Converting mail with attachments to PDF

    I was used to archive mail in Outlook to PDF (using Adobe Acrobat).
    Now I want to convert mail with attachments from Apple mail to PDF, but the attachments are only converted as icons and not readable anymore. Is there a plugin or anything else to solve my problem?

    What are you expecting? An attachment cannot be converted to a PDF file unless you open it in an application that is capable of saving it in PDF format. And any attachments you convert to PDF would be separate from the actual email itself, which would be a different PDF file.

  • Unable to move email with attachments from local folders to icloud

    I'm in the process of migrating my email to icloud. I've been able to move all emails without attacments from local folders to the cloud but evrytime I try to move emails with attachments I get one of two errors, either the imap server times out or it's unable to establish a secure connection (SSL).
    Anyone else come across this or point me in the right direction.
    And yes - I have been searching Google all afternoon and have not been able to find anything.

    I do not have an answer to your problem but am interested in following this thread because I would like to get off the Mail application and do everything in iCloud.  My problem is I have a ton of messages in Mail folders, on my MacAir. I don't know how to get them to iCloud folders.  At this point I keep the attachments in folders on the HD so I don't need the attachments to come but I do need the message.

  • Intermittent "Cannot move Mail to mailbox" Errors.

    Has anyone else experienced intermittent "Cannot move Mail to mailbox" error messages?
    I've done everything I can think of to track this problem down: packet sniffing, reviewing the IIS logs, looking at the event viewer to see if anything is dieing around the time of the request, switching from AT&T Edge (3G isn't reliable here) to WI-FI and back again, etc.
    I have noticed while packet sniffing that when the error occurs there is a [RST, ACK] returned instead of [FIN, ACK].
    This is an intermittent problem that has been plaguing us for a few weeks now.
    Our setup includes: windows server 2008, IIS 7, and exchange 2007 with all patches and roll-ups applied.
    Thanks in advance, and any advice is appreciated.

    What argues FOR a server problem is that millions of users don't have the problem. I see it occasionally when the cell signal is very weak.
    I had a problem a couple of months ago where the push stopped working. My SA looked at it and fixed it. This is not the same problem you have, but it could be related. Here is his explanation:
    +We ran windows updates on Promail a weekend or so before this problem on the 28th. One of the updates was a DNS fix that expanded the dynamic port range dns is using. Problem was, in it’s infinite wisdom, MS allowed this range change to include 2883, the AUTD or active sync port. So we had to do a registry change to exclude the port for Active sync only. Here’s the KB article:+
    +http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956189+
    +Jason said that he recalled making this change before. But the updates on the weekend, must have reverted the registry change he did because the exception wasn’t there anymore.+

  • Cannot move mail to the mail trash

    I cannot move mail to the mail trash without a message that says:  65530.emix couldn't be copied to 'messages'because an item with the same name already exists.  The mail is transferred to the trash but still remains in the inbox.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. Some contacts have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel. A real Mac **** up !

    I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. And some contacts occasionally have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel Mac. A real Mac **** up ! Any ideas ?

    Can you drag and drop the attachments visible in the email to the Desktop OK or does that fail ?
    Re the sending: Are these recipients on Mac's or PC's as the file type could be an issue, if on Mac's then try setting the Mail Preferences Composing setting to Plain Text not Rich Text and see if that improves things.

  • Receiving mail, but can't send mail with attachments?

    Hello,
    I can't send mails anymore, I have been able to send some without any attachments (i.e. reply doesn't work as it automatically attaches the original text). This started 3 days ago. Also, my mail doesn't seem to recognize powerpoint and word docs., but I a know the people who have send me such files do not have VISTA. When I choose "open with" then it works. So I have 2 problems, one being moe urgent then the other.
    1) can't send mail with attachments
    2) .doc (word), .pps (powerpoint)attachments are not always recognized.
    thank you all!!!

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works

  • Sending mails with attachments using oracle 8i

    Hi,
    Could anybody please send a sample code for sending mails
    with attachments using oracle 8i.
    Thanks in advance

    For oracle8i there is an example package from OTN:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/Utl_Smtp_Sample.html
    You have to re-write the package a bit to work it with BLOBs instead of RAW attachments, but that should be no problem

  • Mountain Lion mails with attachments on exchange get lost

    Dear Community,
    we encounter a real annoying and weird issue with CS6 on our Macintoshs using Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
    It all started, that mails with attachments (e.g. JPGS, PDFS...) just get lost and do not arrive. Not all mails but some, spontaneously. But always the same files were affected. Some work, some not.
    Our company is using Exchange, and there is no message back to the sender, that the mail did not arrive. You can even see it on sent items and it occurs in Outlook 2011 as well as Apple Mail. I contacted our IT and they checked the Exchange logs and everything is fine, like the mail would have arrived, bit it does not.
    We went crazy and tried almost everything, clean OS installs, new users... the funny thing: when you forward the mail out of "sent items" it arrives...
    Today a milestone appeared while troubleshooting this issue: We realized, that only files saved from Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator (basically CS6) are affected. When I save a PSD as a JPEG out of Photoshop and mail it as an attachement it gets lost. Always. Same for PDFs or other file formats out of CS6.. When I open a PSD  on embedded Mac Viewer and export as JPEG or PDF it does arrive the sender. So it only happens when saving the files out of CS6.
    So now, I have no clue how to proceed. Is anybody else having this issue or can help us? It is a mess, because it turns our daily work to a horror.
    Any help is appreciated solving this weird issue. Thank you so much.

    Hi ,
    You can try setting the below value to false and see the results too since its exceeding the recipient thread limit could be a problem with the throttling as well.
    <add key="MailboxDeliveryThrottlingEnabled" value="False" />
    Restart the transport services after the change and see the results.
     Good Luck :)

    tried the change in edgetransport.exe.config. Restartet the 4 transport services (Transportdelivery,transportsubmission, transport and transport logsearch) No change though. Problem still exists. May this go into msexchangethrotteling.exe.config?
