Character set when sending text emails

Hi
I am writing an app which will send out text emails. What should the character set be? I have been using ISO-8859-1 but i have some problems with that (dont want to get into that). I know i can use other character sets but which is the most commonly available around the world. I dont want to choose a character set that is uncommonly available to most people.

If you are using SBC Yahoo by chance see this link http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1444416&tstart=0.

Scheduled a webi report and set it send to EMAIL.

Our customer found when they scheduled a webi report and set it send to EMAIL, it will cost much more time than usual after they have their SIA restarts.
The first time it takes 4-5 times longer to receive a report in mailbox than next time onwards.
Please help.
Thanks Much,
Abhishek

Hi Abishek,
If the schedule is taking 4-5 times longer to schedule following the SIA restart I suppose it is possible that the Webi Job Server and Webi Processing Servers are not fully registered with the CMS - can you check that.
Also can you test by ensuring that if there are any Webi Job Servers\Webi Processing Servers in the environment which are stopped\disabled, can you retest after deleting those servers. There is a bug with XI3.1:
ADAPT01371367
Description:
Scheduled jobs often have a delay when the system is upgraded to BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP2 FP 2.2 or FP 2.3.This problem also happens when some of the servers required for scheduling are stopped and disabled. In this case, the Adaptive Job Server (AJS) tries to confirm if all available Webi Report Servers are running, and this causes the delay in running the scheduled jobs.
New Behavior:
This problem has been resolved.
Do you have a test system where you could install FP3.1 and check the fix?
The only "workaround" I could suggest would be to ensure that all services needed for the schedule are running\enabled (Adaptive Job Servers and Webi Processing Servers). This will stop the Adaptive Job Server from its continual querying for those servers. The adverse effect of this is that the more unnecessary services which are running will necessitate increased network communication.
To check if this is the actual issue you are hitting, you would need to trace the schedule and check for messages like this in the logs:
[2010-08-27 12:02:08,769] [TID:24] [ERROR] [webi.PublishingHelper.<init>():89]: unable to retrieve all mandatories servers to proceed this job
Alternatively, log a message with SAP Support for further investigation.

Kind regards,

When sending an email I used to be able to add a distribution list from my contacts, I now have to add each email address individually, does anyone know how I can add the whole list?

When sending an email I used to be able to click on a distribution list in my contacts and it would add all the email addresses, I now have to add each email address individually and this takes a lot of time. Could someone tell me how I can add a distibution list/group to my emails?

Barney,
I have four groups.
I just typed the name of one of those groups in the To field on the iPhone's email, and received:
Invalid Address
"<group name>" does not appear to be a valid email address. Do you want to send it anyway?
I clicked continue and it remains in my outbox.
Help is appreciated.

What's the deal with the swoosh sound when sending texts? IOS 5.1 needs to have an option to turn it off., What's the deal with the swoosh sound when sending texts? IOS 5.1 needs to have an option to turn it off.

Trax and kirt are correct. I'm pretty good with technology, being an engineer and all, and I can tell you for a fact that this 'swoosh' sound (triggered by a successfully sent SMS) can NOT be disabled from ANY menu in iOS 5. The ONLY way to disable it is to flip the silent switch on the left hand side of the phone. This is extremely annoying for some people (like trax, kirt, and myself). For what we pay for Apple products and, in particular, this phone, we simply didn't expect to have to deal with such annoyances. That's why we're Mac users. Please fix this bug.
I feel like I shouldn't have to say this but it bears repeating: turning off message sounds from the 'sounds' menu does not fix his problem. It still emits the swoosh noise. Whoever suggested this clearly didn't try it because it obviously doesn't work. Who posts a solution to a problem without knowing for a fact that their solution is correct? I find that response condescending because he writer is assuming we're not smart enough to have tried it. In reality, it's vice versa.

When I click attach when sending an email with an attachment I get a dropdown that says "single image" or "default multiple". I choose one. Nothing happens as far as offering a choice as to what doc or photo to attach. What do i need to do?

HT3529 why is it that when sending texts, sometimes it shows in blue and other times in green ? What does that mean?

Why is it that when sending text messages, sometimes they go through in blue and sometimes in green? What does that mean ?
My second question is, at times after sending a text it says: Sent as a text message.....I'm thinking, really? that's what I thought I sent in the first place !
Some one please help me out.......

Hi JoFan0465,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Good question!
Blue messages are iMessage conversations (Apple's messaging service)
Green messages are SMS - standard text messages.
SMS is the acronym for Short Message Service.
MMS is the acronym for Multimedia Message Service (audio, pictures, video can be added to messages).
With MMS turned on, you will see a little camera icon in the bottom left corner of your screen when you are in the Messages app. Also you will see the word iMessage where you type your text.
The link below will explain more:
Apple - iOS 6 - Messages with iMessage, for unlimited texting.
See the iPhone User Guide - pgs. 64-66 to learn more about Messages:
manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
The article that you referenced, iOS: Using Messages explains all of the parameters and requirements for sending messages on your iPhone.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

When sending an email to multiply recipiants, using address autocompletion, all the address boxes convert to the name in the first box

I use Thunderbird for my email. When sending an email to multiple recipients, I use autocompletion from my local address book. When I select an additional recipient, the name initially appears correctly in the address box. Each time I drop down to add another recipient, the names in each box all revert to the name in the first box. I've used Thunderbird for 2 years and this just started today. Also, the cursor and names in the address box appear now in red instead of black. Hopefully you can solve this problem.
Thank you,
bradoc

There are some evil bugs in the current version of Thunderbird. You may find it works better if you click with the mouse, or move down with the arrow keys and click or use tab. IIRC, there's an issue with use of the Enter key. Or maybe the other way round ; please experiment. It's one of those frustrating bugs that seems to affect everyone but me.
You can download older versions here:

I believe 31.2.0 is free of this particular issue. 24.6 seems to be a popular choice for those who dislike recent changes in the Composition window UI.

HAVE A PROBLEM WHEN SENDING AN EMAIL IT STATES IT DOES NOT ALLOW RELAYING

HAVE A PROBLEM WHEN SENDING AN EMAIL IT STATES IT DOES NOT ALLOW RELAYING

You have either entered the wrong SMTP server info or they have blocked the sending of e-mails from outside their network. That message indicates that you are not permitted to send through that server from the network you are using to connect.
Contact them again. There is no magic that will allow you to bypass this.

TS3899 When sending an email using my iphone it always goes to an old email address and not the address set up in settings

I have removed an email address from my Iphone and have added a new one. My new one has been set up in the settings as the default account. When trying to send an email the phone always asks for a password for the old email address and will not use the new address. How do I get rid of the old address and use the new one? I have used the delete account to remove the old email address.

Try chnaging the Default Account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
You can also try to Reset All Settings from Settings > General > Reset.
If neither of those work, try restoring the iPhone.

Send text email to mailing lists?

I normally send my email out formatted as html. So, I have my preferences set to do so and to format my reply in the manner in which it was sent to me. So far, so good. Is there a way so that when I want to create a new email to a mailing list that is in my address book, that it is automatically formatted as text rather than html? I would hate to have to switch back and forth to turn it off and on in preferences AND, of course, I know I will forget to do so and get myself "in trouble." So, is there a way to do this easily or set a preference for a certain recipient or group?
Thanks for the help!

no. there is no such capability in Mail (or any other email client AFAIK). you have to change the settings by hand.
Thanks for the help!

I updated to ios 5 and now when sending an email it says no subject, do you still want to send ? Can this be turned off ?

I updated my iphone 4 to ios 5. When sending emails now it says " there is no subject, do you want to still send ? " Is there a way to turn that off. I could not find the setting. In ios 4 this problem never happened . Anyone have an answer ?

There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

Error 1172 occurred when sending smtp email via labview

I found these two useful vi example to send smtp email using Labview:
http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-7451
http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2401
However, I got error 1172 saying "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 74.125.91.109:587". I'm using gmail to send emails and pretty sure that all the settings in the VI are correct. According to http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13287, I tried both 587 and 465 as the port, and nothing would help. 587 will give the 1172 error and 465 will hang the vi for a while after stopping it. This 1172 error is unlikely due to the suggestion from the 2nd link, "Note: If you receive Error -1172 with this example, try logging into the Gmail account with your browser. This error can occur with Gmail accounts that have been inactive for a period of time. You must log in with a browser and verify CAPTCHA text to reactivate the account." because the error kept on even when I login to my gmail account.
I got myself a solution from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2737823/unable-to-send-smtp-mail-with-net-network-issue, which says to turn off the antivirus software. I turned off McAfee on my PC and it did work. Now, I'm able to send email, even when I log out my account. However, I'm not happy since I have to keep my antivirus off. My question is, is there any way to walk around this issue? i.e. being able to send email with antivirus on?
My 2nd question: how to send message to multiple recipients? The string array to the "recipient" does not work, and the form of "[email protected];[email protected]" does not work neither. Do I have to create multiple property nodes for the recipients or better way to do it?
Many thanks

Hi Bhuvanesh,
I noticed that the original thread here hasn't been updated in over a year. In the future, it will be helpful if you begin a new topic for your issue.
I will first address your second question concerning sending SMS messages using LabVIEW. The only way LabVIEW can send an SMS text message is by passing an e-mail to the appropriate SMS gateway service. This gateway will vary by cellular provider. You will need to obtain the SMS gateway service information for each carrier you wish to push text messages to.
As far as the error you are receiving, we will need more information in order to narrow down your problem. What is the exact error message you're receiving? Are you receiving "1172: No connection..." or some other variation? A screen capture of your code would also be very useful.
