Email attachments to foreign countries

Can anyone suggest a decently simple way to limit email attachments from my 2007 exchange server to foreign countries?  And furthermore limit ALL emails to locations in certain countries (China, Russia, North Korea, Cuba, etc.)?  I just can't seem to build a transport rule to address this.
And furthermore it'd be a bonus to have a custom error message to let the sender know why the email was bounced and who to contact for help.  
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Now, using Tiger and Mail, if I do the same thing with the attachments, the recipients tell me that the graphics and other attachments "embed" in their emails and they can't open the attachments. Only if I Zip the files can they open and use them easily.
You might try Mail Attachments Iconizer (http://lokiware.info/Mail-Attachments-Iconizer) and see if it helps.
However, some files and PC mail programs may still have problems.
Good luck. ...pt

  • My Iphone 5c will pick up wifi in foreign countries but not email! Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

       I can't access my email while in foreign countries although my Iphone 5c will access
    wifi for all other applicatons.How do I fix this?Apple doesn't seem to have the answer>

    My daughter's 4S did this after Apple replaced the back.
    There's a clear piece of plastic in there was not seated correctly and the flash was popping back into the lens.
    Apple store just took the back of and reset the piece where it's supposed to go. Took about 2 minutes.
    Take it to an Apple store.

  • Godaddy Email attachments not working with Firefox 10.02. Works with Internet Exporer. What can I do.

    Attachments are not attaching to my emails in my [email protected] godaddy with Firefox the past 2 days. Going to website in Internet Explorer the email attachments work find. What can I do?

    Hello,
    I have very similar problem. Suddenly Firefox stopped work - It was working few days after ver. 4 update. I was looking everywhere for some solution but nothing worked.
    - uninstalled firewall - did not worked
    - added full exception for Firefox into the firewall - did not worked
    - Firefox reinstall - did not worked
    - Firefox complete reinstall (registry included) - did not worked
    - IPv6 diseabling - did not worked
    - diferent proxy options (no proxy, system proxy, autodetect proxy) - did not worked
    - new firefox profile - did not worked
    - complete coockies, history... deleted - did not worked
    - there is only one solution which partly works - I have used public proxy addresses for Firefox but the ping is (750ms), down/up (0.8MB/0.2MB originaly (10MB/2MB) and yes I have tried different proxy server from different countries from my included.
    - IE is working perfectly and without proxy
    - other companies browser - did not worked too
    - only IE is working
    - I have used three different malware, trojans, spyware, anti-virus programs and nothing
    It seems to me as hopeless situation or very clever move from Microsoft, I am forced to use IE - at least this works
    Any ideas, solutions?
    System Windows 7, firewall Comodo Internet security
    Thanks everyone for the help

  • Cannot save email attachments to folders in Finder

    Ughhh, I'm getting a sinking feeling.... It's happening again.
    Ever since I installed Mavericks back in June of 2014, I've had nothing but problems. In fact, the actual install (perhaps coincidentally, I'm told) caused my hard drive to fail in mid-install, even though it was only 2 years old. Apple Care cheerfully paid for the new hard drive and installed Mavericks for me, but ever since my previously fast, responsive computer has been incredibly sluggish, lots of beach balls, tons of problems with things like the one I'm experiencing again today -- can't save email attachments to folders in Finder (the computer behaves as if the save was successful, but when you go look in the Finder later, you discover it was never saved anywhere). Also, I can't create any new folders because it says the location is Read Only (I've tried various file locations -- same result).
    Since June, after countless visits to the Genius Bar and all sorts of attempts to fix the accumulating problems, the Genius erased my User Library last December in a final attempt to get the computer to work right before my Apple Care ran out. It was one of many attempted fixes that would actually work pretty well for a few days, but then the problems would accumulate again.
    Last week, Word kept crashing. I took it to the Genius Bar and the June 2014 hard drive failed a diagnostic test. Even though Apple Care had expired, Apple replaced the hard drive for free because they could see the long list of notes from all of the visits I had made to the Genius Bar. I restored everything and, although it seemed to be working okay at first, I was still getting a lot of beach balls. Sometimes it can take 30 seconds to open a Word document, even if the application is already open. (FYI, I don't keep a lot of applications running.) But at least it was working. Today, however, I'm seeing some of the old familiar problems creep in. I cannot save email attachments to a folder. I cannot create new folders. I've tried restarting the computer multiple times. All of this was working fine as recently as yesterday.
    1. Am I doing something that is causing this? This is my sixth Mac and I've never a serious problem with ANY of the others (including one that I bought USED) and I use them at least 8 hours a day. As far as I know, I'm doing everything the same way I've always done it.
    2. Has anyone else encountered this "Read Only" problem and do you know how to fix it? I'm starting to think this is just a bad computer and that this is a symptoms that something is very wrong again.
    3. Do I simply need to start over with a brand new computer (although, frankly, I'm scared to restore everything onto a new computer and risk "infecting" the new one). This is my work computer and I am self-employed, so I really cannot afford to be running to the Genius Bar once or twice a week any longer. Any advice? It's a MacBook Pro that I bought in December 2011. According to the stats, I'm using 354.68 GB of my 499.25 GB storage capacity.
    Sorry this is so long. Just trying to give the context.

  • Why does Reader XI download email attachments to my Download folder before I am able to print them?

    After last update my Reader XI automatically downloads email attachments (.pdf) to my Downloads folder. I then have to open that file in order to print it.  Before, the attachment would open in Reader and I could print from that direct.

    Windows 8, Firefox email client.  What happens is that I click on attachment links in emails, which are .pdf files.  Instead of a menu allowing opening of the file with Reader, the file gets automatically downloaded to my Downloads folder.  I then have to open that folder, click on the file name... then Reader opens and I can view the file as well as print it from the Reader menu.

  • Email attachments download as ashx for Microsoft Outlook, instead of jpg, pdf, doc, etc. Tried to fix in Preferences Applications but still doesn't work.

    Using MacBook Pro running 10.5.8. Downloaded Firefox 8 on 11/9/11 and now Microsoft Outlook Web App 2010 downloads all email attachments as "attachment.ashx" instead of jpg, pdf, etc. This was not a problem with previous Firefox releases which I've been using for the past couple of years. Can open files if I edit the extension to the proper variety (ashx to jpg for example), but no longer initially automatically opens. Instead I first get a "can't open this file" message.  Attempted to fix in Firefox > Preferences > Applications by indicating the proper "Actions" for various "Content Types" but this had no effect. Chrome and Safari browsers still work properly. How can I fix this?

  • How to  delete email attachments from server

    Hi,
    I created an a CF template for sending e-mail which includes
    attachments. It has been tested on my dev box and is functioning
    fine as the attachment upload to a designated directory on the
    server. I would like the attachments to be purged once the e-mail
    has been forwarded to the recipent.
    In Macromedia's ColdFuision 7MX web application construction
    book page 913 "Interacting with Email" there is a CFC that will
    delete the file when the user ends their session.

    The tutorial only explains how to delete the attachment when
    the recipient checks there mail
    in the POP server.
    Assuming that the sender is in a session would the code be
    written to delete the attached file from the directory on
    the server one the e-mail is sent.
    Can someone explain how to automatically delete email
    attachments from a designated directory or provide me with the code
    that would handle this after an email is sent with attachment.
    Thanks,
    Tony

    I don't know why your dos code didn't run. It could be
    addressing. My limited experience with cfdirectory/cffile/cfexecute
    is to type out the complete path at least once.
    Good books?
    Hard to say, depends on what else you are new at. If you are
    new to html, then htmlgoodies.com has good tutorials. So does
    webmonkey.com. If you have trouble with sql, I have heard good
    things about the SAMS book, Teach Yourself SQL in 10 Minutes by Ben
    Forta. I learned javascript by buying the book Teach Yourself
    Javascript in 24 Hours. The O'Reilly books are also good. I learned
    awk with one of those books.
    Glad you liked the fish pics. The camera is specified on most
    of the pages. If it says Reefmaster, I used an external strobe. If
    it says Sony I either used the camera flash only or natural light.
    By the way, that is not a Cold Fusion site. It's strictly html and
    javascript.

  • Mail 4.5 - how do I permanently delete email attachments?

    I'm using Mail 4.5 on OS X 10.6.8 - I'm using a late-2008 aluminium unibody MacBook with a 250GB hard drive and I only have 4Gb of available space left.  I'm trying to free up space on my hard disk and I downloaded Disk Inventory X to check what was taking up so much space - apart from my iPhoto library and Pictures folder which together account for about 125GB I see that the folder containing Mail messages is 42.8GB in size!
    I'm assuming that this is because I've received a lot of photos via email but I've added the ones I wanted to my iPhoto library so I assume I no longer need the images that were emailed to me.
    Can someone please tell me where I can find these email attachments so that I can delete them all at once - I'm hoping that I don't have to go through all my emails one by one to select and delete them individually?
    Cheers

    Hi again .... The Preferences/Accounts/Advanced tab is set to Keep all messages and their attachments for offline viewing.
    I agree that it seems strange to say that junk messages should never be deleted ... it was one of the settings in the article that I thought odd but assumed that 'there must be a reason'. 
    I had a look in my Macintosh HD/Tricia/Library/Mail folders - there would appear to be a great many ....
    Disk Inventory is telling me that my Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Recovered Messages folders are the following size -
    Mail 46.4 GB
    Mailboxes 44.8 GB
    Recovered Messages 42.1 GB
    When I look at the Recovered Messages data it shows 775 messages numbered from 260549 to 161324 with a suffix of .emlx - each one is 69.6 MB exactly!  Apart from these messages there are another 40 odd with sizes that range from 5.6MB down to 2KB.  I have the feeling that this might be where my problem arises but I have no idea what these Recovered Messages are.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers

  • How can I open email attachments in Pages?

    I am unable to open email attachments such as Word docs and PDFs in Pages. If I select them I get "open in mover lite." Until recently, when I selected them I could open in iBooks but that is no longer an option for me. I am not sure iBooks would help anyway!
    How can I open attachments in Pages?
    Thank you,
    Prea

    according to MS KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278061
    That file is made when someone is using Rich text format and attaches a file. Have them switch to either HTML or plain text and reatatch the file and you should see the proper attachments.

  • After my OS update I can no longer open email attachments.  What could be the issue??

    After my latest OS update I can no longer open email attachments.  What might be in the issue??

    Quit Mail and restart.
    Select each of your mailboxes and select Rebuild under the Mailboxes menu.
    If those don't help, then reinstall Yosemite:
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My email attachments won't open after ios7.1 update on 4s! HELP!

    I recently updated my 4s to the new software, iOS7.1. Since then, my Word document email attachements are not opening. When I try and open attachments I just get a message saying "OfficeOpen XML word processing document" on a blank screen. All attachments were opening before the update... so I was wondering;
    Is my phone "too old" for this software? (Phone is only 16 months old)
    Are the attachments emailed to me, in the wrong format for me to open them?
    Or is there something I need to change in the settings so I can open email attachments????
    Please help!
    I rely on my phone to email on the run for my job so desperatly need to get it working again!
    I also have an iPad2 and have updated it to the new iOS7.1 software and email attachments and everything else is working fine.... just my phone isn't!
    Thank you all so much for your help.

    I have same problem when I upgraded to ios 7.1.  I have done the test that by sending a attachment both in .doc format and docx format but still cannot open the attachement and the message said "OfficeOpen XML word processing document", I have tested another iPhone in ISO 7 which don't have any issues to open.
    I don't why Apple still don't doing something to solve it.  We are well known that iPhone / iPad is not only for home use, we are use this everyday for work.  Please kindly give us solution.
