Corrupt emails sent from MS Outllook Users

We have recently had three different consultants that we work with send us email attachments that always come in corrupt. Any file format is effected. There are sending their email from Outlook 2007 SP2. I had them send me the exact same emails from a yahoo account and the files are okay. So it is either their outlook that is doing it or our apple server doing it. Does the apple server software modify incoming messages? Or do you think it could be a setting in their outllook that is causing this problem? My next step is to have them send a email directly to a windows cpu and try to open the attachment. I almost forgot the macs that we are trying to open the attachments on are G5 dual 2.0 running 10.5.8 and we are using apple mail. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Try having them zip the attachment to see if it comes through ok, it could be an encoding issue.
That said, if they sent you the attachment via yahoo to your server and it came in fine, I don't see how it would be your server? You say that they sent to a Windows XP machine on your network but they still were the ones sending hence you didn't really eliminate the possible factors. You say yourself that from yahoo, the same attachment comes through fine to your server so it must be something with the way attachments are being sent from the other clients based on your information... I mean that actually indicates the issue is not on your end.
We had this issue sending to some Outlook clients (Though not us with receiving their attachments) and it was caused by the format the message / attachments were being encoded in by the senders. So you could have a look at those types of things from the outlook client side.
You could have your secretary send you an attachment and see if you receive it through your email server without any corruption but I assume that has been working anyway. Could have them try from an external address as well (such as a google or even your own domain once they go home, etc).

Can't receive emails sent from Windows Mobile

After much troubleshooting, I've found that I can't receive emails sent from Windows Mobile users. I never noticed the issue until recently, but I can't pinpoint when the problem began: Leopard 10.5.2, Mail 3.2... not sure.
When a Windows Mobile user sends me an email, it just doesn't show up in my inbox. It does show up in a web client, my iPhone, and in Thunderbird, so I know the mail is being delivered to my mailbox on the server. However, there is no corresponding message located in ~/Library/Mail, so it looks like the message isn't being downloaded from the server. I have emails before and after the stubborn email message, so it hasn't interfered with anything else that I can tell.
Anyone else been able to pinpoint this issue and figure out a fix or workaround? Anyone have any ideas?

I am experiencing precisely the same issues. Messages from Windows Mobiles v.6 (more than just a single handset) are not being displayed in Mac Mail 3.2
I have tried rebuilding mailboxes and changing the IMAP port connecting with Exchange server. The mail is there as I can see it in Outlook, OWA, and OMA
Similar situation to you in that I have no idea when this started to happen, but it can only be in the last 3-4 weeks max.
Please, if anybody has a fix or workaround, or knows what changes have been made to Mac Mail in the last few weeks.
Thanks in advance.

TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
Problem solved.
And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

Email sent from iPhone appears in Sent Items days later

On our Mac clients we use Entourage 2008 SP2 which connects to Exchange 2003 SP2 running on Window Server 2003.
So we're very pleased our iPhone 3Gs with 3.1.1 work as well as they do with ActiveSync email to Exchange. (Well done Apple.)
However, we have noticed that some emails sent from the iPhone appear in Entourage's (and OWA's) Sent Items folder days later than when the message was sent.
Also, the Subject is BLANK.
This is not good as we are contemplating moving from BlackBerry to iPhone for our client servicing teams who need to have an accurate record on on-the-hoof communications.
Any ideas?
Regards
C.

IPhone OS 3.0 did not identify itself properly to Exchange 2007 on any iPhone. With iPhone OS 3.1, all iPhones identify themselves properly to the server, essentially fixing a glitch in the previous operating system. However, now iPhone and iPhone 3G users that upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1 won't be able to login to Exchange 2007 servers that require hardware encryption. The new iPhone 3GS, you won't notice any change. Apple's newest phone is equipped with hardware encryption, so it will meet the requirements of the Exchange server when identifying itself. If you've already upgraded your phones to iPhone OS 3.1 on an iPhone or iPhone 3G and connect to an Exchange 2007 server, you have to turn off the hardware encryption requirement for those devices. So, if you decide you have to have hardware encryption, then you'll need to upgrade all phones to 3gs.

ICloud emails sent from apple mail or iPhone 3gs never arrives, works fine when sent from iCloud website

The ony place I have been able to send and receive email since the launch of iCloud has been the icloud website. I wasn't able to send email from my iphone 3gs or apple mail at all until today, now it finally appears to let me send email but it never arrives to its destination.
I can send an email from the icloud website without issue, and email sent from my icloud account using my iphone 3gs and apple mail seems to send fine and without error but who knows where it goes.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks!
Charles

I figured out how to fix it... if anyone else has this problem, go to Outlook > Preferences > Accounts > select the IMAP account > Advanced > Folders and for "Store Sent Messages in this Folder:" select "Sent Messages (Server)."

Sync email sent from ipad

Is it possible to get emails sent from my iPad syncd to my iMac so that I have a record of sent emails it's the same email account.

I have a POP account on my macbook and IMAP access on my Ipad. When I send emails from the Ipad I caanot see them in my POP account as sent.
How can I sync the macbook and Ipad so I can track my sent emails?
There is no issue because that's not how POP works. Setup the Macbook account as IMAP and all is well.

Email sent from iPad main account arrives from gmail address

Email sent from iPad main account arrives from gmail address

I have solved this. The main account SMTP setting was wrong so it was using the next outgoing mail server available which was Gmail. Disabling Gmail as an alternative highlighted that the main one was wrong. I fixed the main SMPTP outgoing server address and all now working. Hope this helps.

Attachments in a group email sent from outlook 2007 do not show in the message

iPad doesn't show attachments in a group email sent from a Windows 7 PC using outlook 2007. Doesn't matter what the attachment is, if it is sent to a group created in Outlook the attachments do not come through. Is this a bug in iOS? My Google Nexus 4 phone handles the attachments just fine.

Is the 'in the clear' bar code number part of an image, it may be not shown because it was remote content?
What happens if you read the email using 'PlainText view' ?
'View' > 'Message body as' > 'Plain text'
Do you have anti-virus software scanning emails?
If yes, then switch it off to see if it is effecting the emails when it downloads.

Thank you very much Toad-Hall. That is the information I needed. Perfect!

Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example signatures tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example: signatures at the bottom of the mail tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

It worked for me. I took a picture with the iPhone's camera. Then opened the Photos app and selected the picture, and emailed it from one of my IMAP accounts to my gmail (also IMAP) account. When it showed up in the gmail inbox (on my iPhone), I forwarded it to my yahoo mail account (choosing the "inlcude attachments" option). When that showed up on my iPhone's yahoo inbox, the picture was there just as it should be.
So I guess the next thing would be to try it with non-iPhone pictures to see if it is a problem with image size or something. I have some 6-megapixel images in iPhoto I can try (taken as RAW/DEC format pictures with my dSLR).
Just tried it sending a Photo from my computer's iPhoto library - picture is 728KB, 2272x1704 jpeg. I emailed it to my gmail account, and it showed up on the iPhone just fine. Then I forwarded that to my yahoo account and again, it showed up just fine on both the iPhone and reading my yahoo mail via the web page.
Don't know what to say - I don't mean this to be just another "works for me" post. I was hoping to see something maybe depending on the size and origin of the picture.
By the way, my 3GS shipped with 3.0.1 on it, and I've updated it via iTunes normally to 3.1.1 and currently 3.1.2. Sorry I don't have anything constructive to add.

My emails come from computer to iPhone and iPad, but the emails sent from them do not sync to the computer. Can someone help me solve this? I have a 3Gs

Emails sent from my Q10 do not appear in my Comcast email Inbox.

Emails sent from my Q10 do not appear in my Comcast email Inbox. This worked a week ago, when I set up my email. I've deleted and re-added my Comcast email address in my Q10. Still not working. Can anyone help?

Is your pc set to retrieve emails automatically and then remove them from the email server. This might preclude them ever reaching your phone.

The email sent from macbook do not appear in my iphone and yahoo account

the email sent from macbook do not appear in my iphone and yahoo account

thanks for your help... I was feeling frustrated because the sync problem, but with your suggestion all contacts are now on my iPhone. _Thanks once again_.
I think that I was asking two different questions at the same time, because the problem with the iPhone synchronization was solved, but the .Mac Address Book still has no new contacts... just the contacts before the Mac OS X update to Leopard. I guess that I will need to look for help in other discussion topic.

Any way to log email sent from websites?

In pouring over my logs, I am trying to figure out if email that is outgoing is logged. It doesn't look like it. Specifically, I see the clients i expect and I see attempts to login -- most using plaintext which is turned off.
I don't see where email that comes from websites is logged, though. Is it already there and I don't see it?
I have wordpress installed and all is up to date. I know it can send email because I get notices from a security scanner over email. What I don't see, though, is any entry in the logs as to when the email server accepts email from the website and sends it. Is that logged already?
if not, how can I set logging to log it?

Linc,
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I think you misunderstood my question, though. I am not talking about roundcube. I'm talking about email sent from PHP websites.
I think, because I have spam filtering on, I can trust those logs to be accurate reports of each mail my server sends.
I was trying to determine if a rogue script got installed and was sending emails because I was getting backscatter.
For the sake of monitoring the server, though, I wish there was a simple log entry each time it mailed out.
