Email message text size

How do I increase the text size in my email messages? Apple traded me a new 5C iPhone for a 5S that had died. The new text is tiny.

How do I restore margins? I now have a small body go text vertically down the page, with over half the page devoted to a margin.

Using Rich Text Formatting Tools for Email Message Text Box in Webdynpro.

Hi All,
I would like to know whether WebDynpro provides a feature of including the Rich Text Formatting Tools (like Font, FontSize, Spell check .....) inside a Text Box.
I need to allow the user to format/indent text inside the Email message box, before sending the Email.
Is ABAP/Java Webdynpro providing us the above feature currently?
Thanks for your time.

Change iCal's default email message text for invitations?

Does anyone know how to modify the default text strings in the e-mail message that iCal generates for invitations? The default text is pretty useless, especially for Outlook users who receive an .ics attachment rather than a "link below."
If I knew where the text strings were stored, I could go in to change them.
Thanks

Sent email message text missing

I'm having sporadic problems with email. Only a portion of the message gets through. I can't figure out exactly what circumstances create this problem, but it seems to be when I'm replying to or forwarding from another message. It doesn't happen all the time, but it has persisted for weeks.

For me, I get a number of "intermittent" emails, each with a portion of the text, but all those "pre-copies" get moved into the Trash; only the full version is sent. Are you sure you're not viewing one of these "pre-copies"? What email provider do you have? (MobileMe, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, etc.)

How to deal with tiny text size on the display, especially in email?

I got a Macbook a week ago. I have been using a Windows laptop for about 5 years. Before that I had a couple of Mac desktops.
All in all I am very happy with the Macbook. I haven't had any of the problems which have come up in these forums, unexpected shutdown, bad DVD drives, etc. One thing I love about mine which I had not seen mentioned before I got it is that the Macbook (or mine anyway) is absolutely whisper quiet. I cannot hear the hard drive doing anything. My Dell laptop sounds like a construction site in comparison.
The main issue that is vexing me has to do with the high-res, small-size display. The combination of those two factors means that the text size onscreen is often so small that even with reading glasses I have serious eyestrain.
Back on my Dell this was a lot easier to deal with. In Internet Explorer and Outlook Express, there are very simple settings in the menus to make text sizes better. And this is really important -- those text sizes are remembered after you close and restart the program.
So far as I can tell, that is not true (in general) on the Mac. I find this shocking, since Apple makes such a big deal about the simplicity and usability of the Mac.
Specifically, in Safari I went into preferences and reset the fonts. A little more complicated than in Internet Explorer but it basically works alright.
With Apple Mail, though, it is really troublesome. There is no remember-able setting to increase the text size for viewing (that I can find). And the on-screen size of 12 point text in an incoming email in Apple Mail is just absurdly small. It makes me wonder if Apple is taking bribes from the American Opthalmology Association. This is going to ruin my eyesite pronto.
Of course I can hit Command-+ several times when viewing each email to increase the text size to a readable size. But what a pain.
Is there a way to make those settings rememberable?
Otherwise I like Apple Mail. But I really prefer not to have to hit 6 keystrokes when looking at each email just to get it to a reasonable size.
I looked at the help files for Mozilla Thunderbird. They seem to indicate that program works the same way.
How about Eudora? Any others? Any suggestions much appreciated.
thanks

Hi Jeff, thanks for your careful attention and your comment.
But I have to point out you've missed what I'm talking about.
In OE, in the View menu (right on the menu bar, not under Tools>Options) there is a setting called "Text Size" which allows you to set the text size for viewing and composing (independent of sending). That makes it very easy to make the text easier to read on small screens. It does not "change the appearance of the formatted text so that it no longer corresponds to the intent of the sender". It merely makes the text bigger or smaller, like a magnifying glass.
Via email I had some back and forth today with another poster here discussing this. You might be interested to see the email he sent me in which he included both Helvetica 12 and Helvetica 14. I took a screenshot of the email he sent me (from Apple Mail). When I read this email in Apple Mail with the "Message Font" set to Arial 18 (which is the size I need it set at for readability), Helvetica 14 is displayed at a smaller size than Helvetica 12.
screenshot here: http://www.pbase.com/paulduke/image/64910338/original
That's weird.
Here's a test I did, and this is what really matters to me.
I sent two emails from Windows/Outlook Express. For one I set the default composing font to Arial 12. For the other I set the default composing font to Arial 18.
When I downloaded and read these emails in Apple Mail, sure enough, the Arial 18 font appears much bigger than the font in the Arial 12 mail.
Then I did the reverse. I set the "Message Font" in Apple Mail prefs to Arial 12. Sent an email.
Then I changed the "Message Font" to Arial 18 in prefs and sent another email.
Then I downloaded both these emails into Outlook Express.
On OE, font size is displayed exactly the same in both emails.
So that's good -- I know that Apple Mail, whatever the setting in "Message Font", is sending some sort of "standard" font size. (By the way, I have Apple Mail set to send Rich Text Format mail). My correspondent tells me that Apple Mail doesn't send "true" HTML mail, and Outlook Express does, so perhaps that explains this.
Okay, no big deal. But if I were a graphic designer and I wanted to know for sure that my carefully crafted email styles were getting through, I might be going bonkers because of this.
But I'm not a graphic designer, and for the moment my concerns are assuaged.
And I accept the wisdom of your advice to "go native". I'm trying, I'm trying...

How to attach a text file as an attachment to email message?

Hello Everybody,
I have a .csv file, in which details about emp-id, emp-name, e-expenses for Reimbursement and email address are stored.
My application reads this .csv file, and sends a mail to each employee with his id, salary details in text format. (by changing content type to "text/plain") The code is working fine. But,
My problem is:
The message is sent as message body to the end user.
The end user / the person who receives this mail will not be a technical person. So,
1) If he trys to take a print out of this e-mail, He get only half of it.(as no. of colums will be more than paper size).
2) I am finding alignment problem. IF employee name is too big, other columns will shift to right and data will not be exactly under column header. (it is going in zig zag way)
So, I thought sending text file with all the details as an attachment might do well.
But, I don't know how to attach a text file to email-message body.
code
try
 { String s1="";
 File f1 = new File(the path);
 FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream(f1); //new
 BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fstream));
 int count=0;
 while((s1=br.readLine())!=null )
 count++;
 //out.println("within while loop "+count);

Text size is reduced when printing with a jpeg imbeded in the email

When running Thunderbird 31.3.0 and there is a large sized jpeg attached, the email will print showing the entire email but text gets scaled down so the jpeg image will fit. Is there a way to either have the picture cropped so it does not control the printing size of the text message or print without the jpeg being printed, thereby leaving the text not reduced in size?

Try the Aperture forum area.

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.

Since 10.5.6 upgrade, email messages are garbled text

Hi,
This problem seems to have started with the latest upgrade. My email messages are coming in with garbled text. This happens in my Yahoo account where I will go to the mail website and the text there will be fine. It's only in the mail program.
Thanks in advance,
Pete.

Hi,
I have the same issue.
Although the mails seems to have been downloaded correctly parts of the parts of the message mime information is displayed as part of the mail body.
The only thing that helps is to rebuild the index of the specific mailbox (inbox in my case).
BTW: Mail of iPhone OS does NOT have this problem. Generally it handles mails MUCH better than the real OS X. Strange, isn't it.

Email to text message

Before I switched to an iPhone it was possible for someone to email a message that was received as a text message (SMS). there are times that receiving a text message is much more convenient than checking email. The AT&T web site says it should be possible to do this by emailing a message as follows:
"All AT&T wireless phones are set up to send and receive e-mail messages by using the following address: [email protected] You can exchange short e-mails with any e-mail address worldwide."
However, when I or anyone else tries to do this to my iPhone the email immediately bounces back with the message of "no such user" or something like that.
It is clear that on the iPhone you cannot enter anything other than numbers when you want to text someone but I would be content if I could receive texts that originate as an email.
AT&T says this feature doesn't work on iPhones.
However, I went into an Apple store and an employee successfully emailed a text message to themselves on their iPhone
I think the problem is that AT&T somehow messed up my account so that they don't have a way of accepting an email intended for my text messaging.
Can anyone shed any light on this? I have a 3GS.
Thanks,
Pete

Allan-
you CANNOT enter an email address in the "To:" field of the Message app on an iPhone. first of all the entry keyboard that pops up when you are in the Messages app only has letters and numbers. there is no way to enter the "@" symbol or a ".". even if you copy an email address and paste it into the "To:" field, when you try and send the SMS the "." and the "@" are removed.
give it a try and see what you see.
but, that isn't what I want to do. I want someone sitting at a computer using any old email client to send an email that gets sent to as a SMS. to do that the person should enter:
[email protected]
when the person does that with my cell phone number, the email gets bounced back. have you tried this on your computer using your cell phone number and the rest of the address above and iPhone and does it work?
thanks,
Pete Rock

My iPhone no longer gives me audible alerts for email and text messages. Just stopped. Help.

My iPhone just stopped giving me audible notifications for email and text messages. It still rings for calls. I have checked the settings for "Sounds" and they have not changed. However, in these settings when I try to change the sound I get only the vibration and not the sample sound. Can anyone help?
