Crash when I send mail with attachments.

Having upgraded to 10.6, when I send an email (through Mail) which has an attachment, Mail will crash. This is bad. Bad, Bad, bad,bad, BAD! Almost every email I want to send has to have attachments, and so mu mail has (effectively) been crippled.
This is something I need a solution to YESTERDAY!

I have the same problem, but its not limited to Mail. whenever I attach a file to mail or entourage or import to word, or upload via facebook or safari, i get a crash
any help on this issue would be advisable

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 !

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
Hop this helps,

Cannot send mail with attachments-plain mail its ok. Any ideas?

Out of the blue I cannot send e-mails with attachments (any kind). Mail without attachments go out without problems.
Very weird.
I have an iMac, mac mail 5.2. and Lion.
Please help.
Thanks

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.

Iphone - cant send mails with attachments

Hi,
We run exchange 2007 & I have my account setup on my iphone but mails with attachments wont send they just sit in the outbox. Now other users in job have nokia E63 which they can send attachments without problems.
Both would use activesync but presume maybe in a different way & that i just might need to make some change on exhange.
Anyone have any ideas?

Turns out a couple of components of AVG were causing the problem. Please see http://www.avg.com/us-en/faq?num=3254#tba7

Sending mails with attachments is sending some parts in HTM format

I have configured my ME account to Apple Mail. When I send an email with first some text, then i add an picture under the text, and after the picture i add some more text. Then i send the mail to someone.
When that person opens the mail in Outlook on Windows for example, the first text that i typed above the picture is visible in the mail, the picture is added as an jpg attachment, but the text that i typed under the picture is always added in a HTM file
So they don't see the whole mail, only the first end until the picture, the rest is an HTM attachment.
It happens with mails send with Mobile Me, but also with other POP3 accounts.
I already tried to change EDIT - ATTACHMENTS - SEND AS WINDOWS ATTACHMENTS and ATTACHMENTS AT END OF THE MAIL
Both settings doesn't work.
Please HELP!!

I was troubleshooting my own issue noted above and tried to send the attachments via gmail's web interface (bypassing Apple Mail). This time, gmail provided an error message stating that the file contained a virus.
Since it was a zip of several Word docs, I saved them as PDFs and then rezipped, and Apple Mail sent them off like a champ.
Evidently, Mail does not have a method for relaying the precise nature of the error message that gmail sends (in this case that the attachment had what gmail thought was a virus). This would be a prime area for some software developers to tackle on a future version of Mail.
By the way, the files almost certainly do not contain viruses; they are extremely old Word Docs that have been on my successive Mac hard drives for at least 9 years. Too old a format for gmail to recognize?
Hope this helps someone who may be having the same trouble.

On Mac, Firefox crashes when opening Yahoo Mail with attachment

On IMAC using OS 10.4 Firefox crashes completely when using Yahoo Mail to open email with attachment. Also crashes when attempting to attach photo to outgoing email. Email without attachments do not crash Firefox.

Installing a Flash plug-in took care of this problem

Mail doesn't send mails with attachments 1Mb

Hi,
I'm using Mail with a ManagedExchange account. Before Snow Leopard I was using Entourage 2008.
Everything seems to work fine. Except sending of larger files fails.
Every time I send a mail which is approx. <1Mb Mail starts transmitting data (see it via Little Snitch 2.2b) and stops after a while doing nothing anymore. The mail stays in the outbox, and the moving circle which indicates that a folder is being synchronized appears endless. No other mails are going out then. After a while I get a message that my email couldn't be sent via my mail server. And the connection failed. And I can choose another mail server if I would have any. Entourage doesn't have that problems. So the connection seems to be fine. Small attachments are no problem.
What's the problem?
Regards,
OberMufti

I'm getting a similar problem. Snow Leopard Mail for me seems to be choking on large attachments - sending them, forwarding them, or even moving them from one IMAP folder to another.
My mails are getting through, but it takes a long time and they are dragging the whole system to a crawl in the process.

Email not in sent box when I send email with attachments in Word.

Several times, I've noticed that when I send an email with attachments in Word = .doc format, I don't find the emails in my Sent Box…Why?

Then this sounds like a problem at the receiving end. More information is needed.

Double check your contacts email, and if its incorrect, go to their contact and change it and save it or you can delete the email you put in, and manually type it in.
Hope this helps.
How would that help the original poster?

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.

Mail crashes upon opening of mails with attachments

This happens all the time since i bought it two weeks ago. everytime i try opening one with an attachment, mail would just hang and crash. does anybody face this problem too? How do i solve this?

that's it - I ran the updater - and I believe I have been able to use it all day without the program crashing when it encounters an attachment.
one goofy thing I noticed, for the first time, there appear to be two applications folders on my start-up drive (1) in my user folder (2) in the "main" hard drive folder.
MAIL is in both - I believe the "main" one was updated; when I turned on the "user" MAIL it crashed when I opened an eMail with an attachment; when I opened the same eMail with the "main" mail there was no problem.
now what does this tell us?
thanks again!
will
