Change mail send to: to Thunderbird

I would like to accomplish two things if possible
1. When I ctnrl click in finder, is there a way to have the service mail to come up?
2. When i click on Mail to: is there a way to have it go to/ open thunderbird rather than apple mail? I am not sure where I would set this up.
Thanks

This automatically creates an email with the attachment already in the email. When I do that now, it automatically goes to Apple Mail and creates a new message, rather than creating a new email in Thunderbird. I made the changes that you previously suggested, but it still opens Apple Mail when I perform the above sequence.
I would prefer for it to open Thunderbird. It seems like this should be possible to set what application the "Send File" menu items opens, but I can not figure out how to do it.
I suspect that most of the services under the Services menu are offered by the individual programs themselves. If that is true, then it appears that the Mail application offers some services but Thunderbird does not.
There may be a way to modify this behavior, but in the time I spent looking for it I was unable to find any trace of the mechanism that controls services.

Change mail sender to a generic sender

Hi,
I am sending a PDF by email but I need to change the sender. I am using the current user id to get the user email but the business tells me they need a generic email address as a sender address.
My Code is this:
Mail Contents
      CONCATENATE text-000 text-001 text-002 INTO lv_line
      SEPARATED BY space.
      APPEND lv_line TO lt_text.
      CLEAR lv_document .
      lv_send_request = cl_bcs=>create_persistent( ).
   Body Text and Document Title
      CONCATENATE vbdka-land1 vbdka-name1 vbdka-bstkd
      INTO lv_title SEPARATED BY '-'.
      lv_document = cl_document_bcs=>create_document(
                      i_type    = lc_raw
                      i_text    = lt_text
                      i_length = '100'
                      i_subject = lv_title ).
Mail Subject
      lv_sub = lv_title.
      CALL METHOD lv_send_request->set_message_subject
        EXPORTING
          ip_subject = lv_sub.
      CALL METHOD lv_send_request->set_document( lv_document ).
      lwa_sender = cl_sapuser_bcs=>create( sy-uname ). ---> I NEED TO CHANGE THIS!
      CALL METHOD lv_send_request->set_sender
        EXPORTING
          i_sender = lwa_sender.
If need to indicate SAP an email address instead of a user id.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks very much!

That was a long time ago. I don't even remember asking the question. I don't have that trouble at the moment.

Mail Sender - Encoding (I need to change from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1)

Hi,
I'm getting data from email (in ms exchange) using the Mail Sender Adapter.
In the e-mails exists characters as ç (ccedil), ã (atilde), õ (otilde) and others. The XI cannot read this characters because the encode in XML is UTF-8.
How I do to change the encode in XI from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 ?
Thank you!

Unfortunately most mail server do not apply the codepage to the content type of a mail.
In this case you have to set the content type with help of the MessageTransformBean:
Transform.ContentType text/plain;charset="ISO-8859-1"

Changing the default mail sender name in Application server

Hi,
how do I change default mail sender name in application server.
It is administrator@application by default.

Does the email send from the operating system (sendmail ) or from the IAS?
If its from the ias , then its in the httpd.conf.
If its from the Operating system then I dont rememeber
If you have a non windows platform (like unix) easiest way will be to do a grep for "administrator@application "

Change Mail for Exchange sender name

Hi,
How can I change the sender's name for outgoing emails in Mail for Exchange application?
I am using Nokia 5800 Xpress Music.
Thank you!

Well,
Nokia MfE doesn't reply to my mails. I guess that only poeple using MfE v 2.09.158 who are not registered to the MfE Service (I guess you have to pay a monthly fee as it is with the Blackberry service) have the sender name problem. Of course you can use MfE with other mail providers than Nokia MfE. But in this case "Mail for Exchange" will appear as sender name.
I now switched over to MfE's competitor "RS" and don't have this annoying problem anymore. The alternative to RS would be using the old MfE version where I didn't have that sender name prob. But as my battery was empty after 15 hrs using the old MfE version (with RS my battery lasts 3 days !!!) there is no real alternative to RS!
This sender name problem seems to be part of Nokia's business strategy. As they want to compete with Blackberry they want you to register (and pay the MfE mail service monthly). Probably that's the reason why you get MfE for free (RS costs 50 US$).
Any comments on my theory?!
BR, Johnny

I have a problem sending mail via smtp. I use a satellite system and the average return time for a ping is 675ms. Is this a problem with mail? If so can I change Mail to accept it. The problem also exists with Lion

I have a problem sending mail via smtp. I use a satellite system and the average return time for a ping is 675ms. Is this a problem with mail? If so can I change Mail to accept it. The problem also exists with Lion and on both my MacPro and my wife's Imac. I also see my mailboxes randomly disconnecting and reconnecting. Any other ideas of a possible cause?

I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
Now all is working.
Thanks,

Why does Mail change the sender email address?

My email address from work has a subdomain: "[email protected]".
Although my mac Mail account is set up correctly with that email address in the account settings, when I send mail, users receive it showing that the sender (from:) is "[email protected]" - it drops the subdomain and replies to that address get bounced back.
Does anybody know why this is happening?
Thanks -

In the From header of the copy of the message in teh sent box,
it reads correctly as [email protected]
Does this provide me a clue?
Sure it does. What you see in Sent is what Mail sends to the outgoing (SMTP) server. If the message gets changed afterwards, some agent other than Mail (probably the outgoing server) is doing it...
I know that Gmail’s outgoing server, for example, does this. In order to be able to use Gmail's SMTP server with another address, you must first enable that address in Gmail's Settings > Accounts page, and let Gmail validate it by verifying that you do indeed own it. If you don't do this, even though Mail will correctly send the message from the address you specify, Gmail's SMTP server will silently change it to the address associated with the Gmail account that corresponds to the username specified during SMTP authentication, instead of refusing to send the message as other SMTP servers would do in those circumstances.

How do I change the hostname used when Mac Mail sends EHLO

Hi All,
I work for a tech support group and one of our clients is experiencing some trouble sending emails. When they connect to their outbound mail server Mac Mail sends the EHLO command with a hostname like 01:23:45:67:89:ab.home
Another Mac on the network sends a hostname like 00:A0:C9:14:C8:29.home2
So they appear to be the a Mac address for the computers NIC followed by a generic location in this case .home, not sure if thats a generic Mac thing or something they chose to configure but because the hostname is not an ip address and contains ".(dot)home" the outbound mail server our client uses believes it to be a domain so then rejects it as an invalid domain when a lookup on it fails.
I've changed the hostname of one of the Macs using the command "cutil –-set HostName new_hostname"
This has changed the hostname when checking it by the hostname command in a Terminal but Mac Mail still persists in using the old hostname. We've tried rebooting the machine and rebooting the machine with the left shift key held down as I believe this does some kind of rebuild of configuration files, but still the old hostname is send when Mac Mail sends EHLO.
How can I force Mac Mail to pick up the new hostname or is there something else I need to do to change it?
thanks for any assistance you can provide,
Martin

You can sign out from the account in iBooks and then sign in to another one.
From the menu bar, choose: Store->Sign Out
Then sign in again with the desired ID: Store->Sign In

Broadcasting - change user sending mail

Hello,
I've created broadcasting settings - distribution by e-mail. Now I want to change user who is sending the mail. It looks it uses user who created the broadcast settings by default.

Hello Ondrej,
I never tried but you can edit these tables in order to change the sender:
RSRD_SETT_NODE_A
RSRD_REGISTRATN
RSRD_SETTING
Let me know if works.

Mail Sender Adapter with IMAPS

Hi,
I had a Mail Sender Adapter running fine with imap. Our Email Server has changed now to secure protocol. Therefore I need to use the Mail Sender Adapter with IMAPS. If I use imaps://<mailserver>:993 in the channel configuration the Mail Adapter aborts with error "not initialized; mail agent null" and in the default trace it says "failed to initialize the channel: java.io.IOException: illegal protocol for XMBIMAPInitiator: imaps#". If I configure the Mail Adapter with <b>imap</b>://<mailserver>:993 the Mail Adapter starts and says "running", but it does not poll the postbox. In the security.log file there is a warning about untrusted certificates "com.sap.security.core.server.https.SecureConnectionFactory#Plain###Attempting to create outgoing ssl connection without trusted certificates#". I did already import the (CA) Certifcate of the mailserver with key storage service of J2EE Engine in the Trusted area and I configured the J2EE Engine for using SSL (the https access to the J2EE Engine works fine).
What is still missing in XI 3.0 (SP12)? I can access the postbox securely with e.g. Thunderbird using port 993.
Has anyone an idea or had already this issue?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Peter

Mail sends intermittently

Apparently Mail settings are stored somewhere other than the mail accounts.
In Mail setup following this thread, Mail, Preferences, Accounts, Account Information, Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), Edit server list, and delete all references to the old ISP The old ISP shows up upon restart. I need to delete all references to the old ISP. Can anyone give me the settings so that the settings won't change.

Jason, I don't know how to fix your problem, but there are a couple of things that don't sound right to me:
If I am sending an e-mail of some length it looks
as if it sends, goes into my sent box, but is never
received by the recipient. I know, because I CC myself.
I don't understand this. What does CC have to do with it?
It seems like Apple Mail knows which messages are tests
and which are the ones I want to send for real and just
blocks those from actually going out.
Well, you've already stated that your messages go to the Sent mailbox, so it's clearly not Mail that's blocking them...
Something to try here would be using another mail client, such as Thunderbird, and see what happens there.
Apple : Please help me on this, because it is a very
bothersome problem and one that I don't think is easy
to pinpoint the cause of.
If you really want Apple to help you on this, you've chosen the wrong way to request it.
BTW, have you checked your server settings? :-D

Automatic font size/type change after sending - why and how do I fix it?

This only seems to happen when I copy text from a web page and paste it into a compsosing email within Mail but it does not display on screen as anything different until the email is sent.
Here is an excerted screenshot from an email that was sent. When I composed it there appeared to be normality but after sending it changed.
A little more background on when this seems to happen. My french is not good. I use dictionary.com to translate text then copy and paste it to the email. I am not sure if this is the only circumstance of when this debacle happens but it seems to be constant when I follow the previous steps. Note: If I am not troubleshooting when it happens and I highlight all text (even though it looks normal) before sending then manually change the font size or font type and revert back to the size type then it does not always happen but still will periodically.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Is it a known bug or virus?

This is not a virus.
It's important to keep in mind that Mail sends HTML e-mail, when the text needs to be "styled" in any way, rather than just plain text, and not all mail clients will display that in the same way (or even at all). Also, Mail doesn't really have much in the way of editing capabilities for HTML e-mail.
Fortunately, from what you describe, there's a solution... if text you are copying from somewhere and pasting into Mail has strange formatting, try command-option-shift-v, or Edit -> Paste and Match Style, to paste the text. This discards all the style information attached to the copied text, and pastes just the text itself, making the text match the style of whatever you're pasting it into.

Variable Transport Parameters in Mail Sender

Did anyone ever successfully use the "Variable Header XHeaderName1" in the mail sender adapter (IMAP4)?
We have two mail sender channels which require a slightly different mapping. My idea was to define a value for the field "Variable Header XHeaderName1" and evaluate that in the mapping. But the value is not passed into the SOAP header, I can configure what I want. I turned on "Adapter spec.attributes" and "Variable Transport...".
So I cannot access the field value in the mapping.
Now I evaluate the dynamic configuration field "SUser", that works, but that's only a workaround.
So either this is a bug in the system (XI 3.0 SP 21) or the documentation is wrong.
We are using an attachment, is that the problem ? "Use Mail package" off/on does not change anything.
Any ideas ? No general links to the documentation please.
CSY
Edited by: Christian Sy on Aug 15, 2008 8:48 AM

I think the DynamicConfigurationBean would help in this scenario.
You can assign a constant value in sender channel and use that constant for the determination of the mapping.
