Email oddities

I'm new to Verizon e-mail and want to confirm some odd features I've noticed. First, it seems only messages in the Inbox can be moved to a folder. I see no way to move messages from Drafts to a folder. Second, when I copy something, I cannot right-click and "paste" into an e-mail, which I can do with the same copied information if I'm using g-mail. Instead, in Verizon e-mail I can only use the "control-V" function (which I discovered totally by accident). Am I correct about both of these, or am I missing something?

Go to Draft, click on actions, click on forward.

  • Email notifications - oddities

    This thread

    contains references to UNC paths. In the web forum, these get translated to
    links with href=#, and when the post arrives as an email, all the message
    contains is the '#' and not the '\ \server \ share' I would have expected to
    see. Could someone please ask the powers that be to rectify this?

    I don't know if this helps you at all, but all of these posts that appear as links on the Web come to Opera as simple octothorpes with no hyperlinks.
    From message 8
    And now from IE6...
    From message 25
    Let me know if this comes through in Email.
    All of the messages that do not appear as links on the Web look just fine in Opera - also not hyperlinked.
    I am tempted to send one from Opera, but it might start auto-repeating, so I will refrain. Opera only sends plain text anyway, now that I think of it, so it probably wouldn't help. I suspect it is the sending email clients adding the link references that the forum software has to deal with.

  • Some PDF attachments are corrupted when emailed using javamail

    I have a java class that takes a file name, 'To' email, and 'From' email as parameters, and then emails the named file to the specified address as a Multipart email.
    The problem that I am facing is that sometimes the PDF cannot be opened when it arrives because it is corrupt. I know that prior to sending, the PDF opens without issue, so the problem is in the code somewhere.
    There are a couple of oddities here:
    1) PDFs that get corrupted and PDFs that do not get corrupted are generated from the same source (Oracle Report), so I believe that rules out a problem with malformed emails?
    2) If I compare the PDF before it gets sent to the PDF that arrives in my inbox using a hex editor (XVI32), the files are identical except that an extra character is getting added to the corrupt PDFs at the end of each line - hex '0A', which corresponds to ASCII linefeed. This indicates to me that maybe there is a problem with the way that the file is getting encoded when it is read. If I remove all of the 0A characters, the file opens correctly.
    I believe that the code I am using is set up correctly, as I have looked at countless examples of this online to try to find my problem. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Code is included below.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Normally pdf files are text, with any binary data represented as encoded text. If your pdf files
    include raw binary data, JavaMail can be confused. JavaMail will try to guess what encoding
    is appropriate for your data. If the data is mostly text, JavaMail will use quoted-printable encoding,
    and will canonicalize the text lines to end with CRLF (0x0D, 0x0A). A 0x0D in the binary will look
    like an end of line and will turn into 0x0D, 0x0A.
    You can force JavaMail to use base64 encoding for your data, which will preserve the binary
    data exactly, by using
    attachFilePart.setHeader("Content-Transfer-Encoding", "base64");
    after setting the content for the part.
    Alternatively, you could figure out how to generate pdf files that don't include raw binary data.

  • What programs do you recommend for email marketing?

    We use Act for our databases and Outlook but have heard that Outlook creates problems with HTML distortion.  We're wondering, before we start a project, if we should use Dreamweaver for HTML, or copy and paste from InDesign or Illustrator to Outlook?  Or should we try a program other than Outlook?  We have CS5.5 but would be willing to upgrade if that would eliminate potential problems.  We need some expert advice!
    Please help!

    Dreamweaver will work, those other programs should never be used to create html emails or html in general, ever.
    HTML email isn't the same as creating a website, there are a ton of oddities to working with html email. Here's a good article on the subject from one of the contributors here (Nancy O) that sums up most of what you need to do...
    http://alt-web.com/Articles/HTML-Emails.shtml
    Sending really should be handled by a service like mailchimp.com, icontact.com or constantcontact.com (or similar) to avoid potential problems with getting your email address blacklisted.

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

  • How do I email pictures as attachments ???

    Hi!
    i obviously know how to send pics from aperture as an email -- but is there an easy way to do it os that they are sent as attachments?

    They are sent as attachments.  If you are using Lion there are some oddities, but are nevertheless attachments.  Why do you think otherwise?

  • Flash Player update 16.0.0.235 prevents pictures in emails downloading Outlook 2013

    Windows 7 64-bit.  Updating Flash Player from V 15.0.0.246 to recently released V 16.0.0.235 causes an unintended consequence.  Within Outlook 2013, images/icons included within a HTML email are prevented from downloading, leaving the red crosses where they should be displayed.  The option 'Click here to download pictures' no longer appears above HTML emails, and pictures/icons do not display within emails from sources already in 'Safe senders list'.  I could not find a solution and have had to use 'Restore Point' to revert to previous version of Flash Player to restore normality.  The conclusion is that there is an issue with V16.0.0.235 that interferes with Outlook 2013.
    Adobe please look at this issue.

    To Jeromie:  What you note ... that everyone else, including the folks that write and maintain this software, USE it .. is understood and all the more frustrating!  I do respect you guys and appreciate your comments!  As I said, I am no tech person, just 'get by' reasonably with my functionality on computers ... but can follow reasonable directions.  I too get intrigued, as you say, at least as a curious/interested outsider.  I keep our PCs up to date (automatic and periodic manual checks) and we don't game, visit 'questionable' sites or download a lot of anything .. and are very careful and 'smart'- careful - users of email and the interwebs.  I just know from when I worked (I'm retired), our office IT persons were good about sharing their own frustrations with oddities with software of many stripes and the way a small 'glitch' would effect one PC or server and not several others.  So I'm glad to see someone looking at this with some level of interest.  It is not unlike that recurring issue with my RAM truck ... makes the darndest sound at only odd times that cannot be intentionally duplicated and the techs don't have a clue.  "Bring it in when it does it again" .. "but it doesn't do it constantly and it just suddenly stops" .. "Sorry, don't know what to tell you" ....  And these days, it too could be a software issue!
    An update: When I uninstalled Flash and opened Outlook, graphics that only a moment earlier would not open, just popped open as normal!  Then an hour or so after posting on this topic on 1/17, I re-installed Flash and everything continues to function just fine in Outlook.   The only common denominator seems to be Flash Player (or something associated with it), no?  Seems there are so many interconnecting aspects to these interdependent software codes that it doesn't take much for even one or two individual machines to have an odd aspect to their configuration or something that creates this kind of 'software confusion' that flips a switch or something.
    Adopee is a very frustrating piece of software ... gotta have it so often, but it has issues.  It repeatedly crashes on any machine I've ever used.  No common denominator, it just up and quits after running fine for X days, or X hours.  Then you reload and you're back up.  And now I see on Computerworld Security: January 27, 2015,  that Adobe isn't minding their own store again.  So I disabled it from automatically loading in FFox.  Hope I don't have this issue again, but maybe it's like the old PC adage,  "if it locks up, just reboot"... but what a pain.  THX

  • Mysterious email goings on

    Hello, 
    I have noticed the following oddities with my email, also my girlfriends email, and ever so coincidentally, a friend mentioned that he was noticing the same mysterious events:
    ---emails disappearing, then reappearing ( i have mine set to save up to 4 mos and I only seeing about 6 or 7 days, and they are several days apart- for example, (newest on top) it shows Sept 6 (all my emails *i think*) then Sept 2 (3 emails), Aug 26 (maybe 2 or three emails)...you get the picture.   I know for a fact I get more emails than this, just from my weather service subscriptions and a couple of other subscrs. 
    --- sometime I get emails ( or my girlfriend gets my emails), a few days after they were actually sent. 
    These two and a couple of other phenomenom have been occuring over the past two weeks, or maybe longer. If I can be of any help with more info please let me know. Conversly, if anyone has had these occurances and somehow construed that there was something they were doing wrong or not doing please post. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this and consider it. -Ed 
    oh, forgot to mention that I use Verizon

    I suggest your sister immediately change her e-mail password as her e-mail address may have been hijacked.

  • IOS8 on a IPhone 5 bugs, youmail, Email and app store updates

    I've discovered the following oddities with IOS 8.0.  Maybe they will be repaired when I install 8.0.2, however I wanted to document them.
    App Store updates do not clear from the list after they have been downloaded and installed.  For instance I updated 5 apps.  I downloaded them via Itunes and synchronized my IPhone 5 as I normally do.  The App Store Icon still shows I have 5 apps which need to be updated.  Opening the App Store icon, and clicking on the updates tab does not clear the list.  It instead shows the "update" soft key for a moment and then it changes to "open".  I have tried several things including rebooting my IPhone 5 to no avail.  I did notice that when a new app shows appears to be updated the previous apps which were indeed updated are purged from the list. After downloading via ITunes and again synchronizing my phone, the latest app which has been updated also will not purge from the list when clicking on the "updates" soft key.  Now my App Store icon continues to show that I need to update one app.
    Youmail app.  I can't purge (delete) voice mails from the trash folder.  Selecting them, and selecting the purge (delete) soft key does not remove them. It's as if the command is ignored.
    Email,  I noticed that when I use the delete all soft key from the trash folder selecting the "edit" soft key and then "delete all" that the soft key in the upper right corner which normally changes from "edit" to "cancel" when I select delete all is blacks out like a hole in the screen.  The "cancel" soft key which normally appears there is gone.  I did note that touching the now black hole where the cancel soft key was previously still functions as "cancel".
    I am using the current version of ITunes 11.4.0.8 in a Windows 7 PC.

    Youmail just released an update which fixed the deletion problem with old voice mails.  The other problems are still not resolved, even with the 8.0.2 IOS update.

  • Cannot send email from iPad2 with Shaw

    Hi there,
    I have issues that I cannot seem to resolve:
    I can receive from my shaw account but it sends all outgoing to the Outbox - I've double, triple cheked all incoming and outgoing servers - I even sat with my iPad next to my iMac to make sure everything matched.
    it says  The sender address "myemailadrees.com" was rejected by the server. even though I recive ok.
    Help please??

    I too have spend countless hours trying to get my iPad 2 to work with my Shaw email.  I FINALLY got it to work this morning after about 3 months of trying different "solutions".  Here is how I set my POP email account:
    Incoming mail server:
    Host name:  shawmail.ed.shawcable.net (I live in Edmonton)
    User name: my shaw email address without the @shaw.ca
    Password: my Shaw email password
    Outgoing mail server:
    Host name:  shawmail.ed.shawcable.net (I live in Edmonton)
    User name: leave blank
    Password: leave blank
    Use SSL: off
    Server port: 25
    This has worked so far for me, so hopefully it will work for others as well.  It seems like there is an lot of people on these forums going through the same frustrations.  I was able to set both mine and my wife's email accounts on my iPad.

  • How can a family share an iPad, specifically, using email? Seperate account

    I know, you can have multiple email accounts. i have 3 on my iphone 4. But if my wife, daughter, and I all use the ipad. Can you set up email to ask for what account to load?
    Again, i know you can switch after the fact. I am trying to avoid the scenario where I may see my daughter email, or my wife may see mine. Not that we have anything to hide. But if i order flowers or something, i wouldn't want here to inadvertently see the conf email because ipad defaulted to my account.

    Perhaps consider setting your family up with Gmail accounts. Gmail (Google's email service, even though you probably already knew that) is totally free and has an awesome web interface, especially on the iPad. Then each member of your family could log in/out of their Gmail accounts using mobile Safari.

  • How can I use multiple ipad's on one account without sharing individuals personal email accounts?

    Is it possible to have multiple ipads on one account and share info, but also allow the individual users to have personal email that is not seen on the other ipad's? We have all ipads on same icloud account because we all need to see the same ical. It seems like that's the problem. If it IS related to icloud then if we have separate icloud accounts, how would we share the main ical otherwise? Sharing the ical is very important for this business so everyone can access the daily schedule. Of course each user still wants to have private email.
    Hope this wasn't too confusing!
    Thanks!
    Doreen

    you could set up the main icloud itunes acount for ical and not have in setup on the devices
    and share the calandar with the other itunes accounts on the devices
    or only have it on one device
    devices have the users indervidual itunes icloud setup
    they should be able to access the shared "main" itunes icloud ical account once it's shared
    http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-57542557-285/three-methods-for-sharing-an-ic loud-calendar/
    if the devices are company owned you could go futher and setup find my iphone on the main itunes account
    and not on the user icloud accounts

  • Cannot send email from my Touch (connection to smtp server fails)

    Hello,
    I have a new iPod Touch with 1.1.4 and the January apps. I am having a problem setting the Mail application.
    I am trying to connect to the IMAP/SMTP servers at my university. I am using the exact same settings and passwords I use on my laptop, which works fine. I can receive email fine on my Touch, but every time I try to send one it fails tellings me "the connection to the outgoing server smtp.myuniversity.edu failed".
    If I on purpose write a wrong password for the outgoing mail, the error message I get is different ("check the account settings for the outgoing server smtp.myuniversity.edu").
    The university IT people confirmed my settings, and told me that there is nothing blocking any handheld device from using the server.
    Does anyone know why this would happen?
    Thanks,
    Marcelo

    Thank you very much for your responses
    1) the link to mail setup is (sorry, it's quite long)
    http://www.knowledgepak.com/kpaksonline/kpol.asp?PiAlias=kpolpi17&k2dockey=04096 3251575739@kpol17&ViewLink=true&SkipHeader=false&printformat=true
    2) I am indeed using SSL, as instructed by IT
    3) I do use port 587 instead of 25 (25 does not work either)
    Any ideas? Thanks again.

  • Cannot send email from yahoo mail client

    I cannot open or send or attach anything to my email in the yahoo mail.  I know there's nothing wrong with the email because it works on my laptop, just not on my computer.  Could there be a setting problem, or a cookie problem or something?
