Emails always are suck in outbox when sent through Apple mail
Emails always are suck in outbox when sent through Apple mail. How should I deal with it ? Many thanks!
As mentioned, Outlook is not email standards compliant. It probably never will be based on Microsoft's history. However, I think there are various issues involved in the problems people have. I often send emails from home to my Outlook account at work. I have never experienced any of the problems that I've seen posted anywhere regarding Mail and Outlook.
My conclusion is that there are issues with certain Exchange Server configurations and/or issues with your own ISP mail server causing the issues.
I do have my system set up to Always send windows friendly attachments (from what I've read, this really is 'send Outlook friendly attachments'), and always put attachments at the end. Prior to the 'always put attachments at the end,' I wasn't having any issues, either. However, I read that that setting helped with other email clients, so I use it.
The obvious question is, "well, how is your exchange server configured." I would love to provide the answer to that question; however, I work for a DoD organization, so actually tracking down the person that knows the answer to that question will take somewhere between five years and never. With my 20+ years experience with the DoD, I'm leaning towards the never end of the spectrum. The other half of the equation is, "I'm using cox as my ISP."

ATT00001.htm attachment in Outlook when sent with Apple Mail - SOLVED!
Hi All,
We recently discovered the problem where emails with attachments sent from Apple Mail were being received in Outlook, blank but with BOTH the attachment and the email itself as an ATT00001.htm attachment!
I've discovered that the problem kicks in if the attachment is placed BEFORE the email message! If I write an email and then add an attachment AFTERWARD, ie. below the text, there is no problem.
I hope this helps...Hi, you could try Universal Mailer plugin (http://noware-it.zxq.net), it solves this issue by correctly handling attachments. This also solves the problem for inlined images, which can now be correctly seen by recipients.
PS: following Apple's forum rules I have to state that, since I'm the developer of Universal Mailer, I might make some profits from it. Also, on the website you can find a free version of the plugin, which has some limitation but can be used to test its functionality. -
Hidden files sent through Apple Mail
Whenever I send attachments through Apple Mail, I get these 1KB files showing up in the attachment. For example, if I attached and sent a 1MB file called "photo1.jpg" through Apple Mail, my friends receive two files; 1 MB file called photo1.jpg and another one 1KB file by the same name. If I sent two attached files, I get two more 1KB files by the same name. Depending on how large the main file is the other file may vary from 1KB - 8KB.
I do not know how to avoid sending something I do not see.
Are these .ds_store files? When I sent this to myself on Gmail through Apple Mail I get the same. So, it is not as if ONLY windows guys see them. I can also see them in my Safari.
Please help.This is likely the results of the AppleDouble MIME encoding mechanisms used within your Apple Mail client; the second hunk is the resource fork from the image file.
You can ignore it, or you can switch to a sending client that doesn't generate the AppleDouble MIME message (and the resource fork), or you can switch to a receiving client that does.
Reading fodder (though potentially more detail than you probably want) is available:

http://db.tidbits.com/article/05787
There are other discussions of the AppleDouble format around.
The Windows Friendly switch disables this mechanism; the resource fork is not sent within the MIME-encoded message. -

Title:
Mac Mail att htm issue in outlook
Question:
I'm using mac original mail software. I did set my HTML style template. The software is best ever.
And works good when I send email to outlook users on PC. However if I attach PDF for example, it does go through and outlook users get it, however when they open message all they see.
- attached PDF
- and att00001.htm file which has inside email text
Not everybody gets idea to open it and thy think it is empty email. The same email will be sent to apple user everything looks properly. Why email text is converting into the htm file? It happens only if i attach something to my message, if I don't then email text is not being converted to htm attachment.
I think there are a lot of user that know this issue, did anybody find a solution yet?
Thank you

I don't think there is anything you can really do about it.
I think that it's how the receivers program is going to interpret it.
For example, I sent an email to my Outlook account from my Mac with just an attachment; no text. I looked at the email in Outlook 2000 and I see the attachment as an item in the body text section of the email. When I look at that same email in Outlook 2003 the attachment shows in the attachment area under the subject line and the body text area is blank.
Then I sent another one with an attachment and some text in the body of the email. In Outlook 2000 I see the text in the text area and the attachment as well as a attxxx file in an area at the bottom of the email. The att file was empty. In Outlook 2003 that same email as the attachment and the empty att file in the attachment area at the top and under the subject line and in the body text area of the email is the text that I typed.
Although Mac Mail uses standard protocols, which is why you can send an email to a Windows PC, it just does some different things. In the WIndows world Outlook and Outlook Express also handle some things differently.

Thank you for your reply
This issue makes mail.app useless, do you have any recommendations?
Other client which are as good as the mail.app or would be nice to know what is forcing to convert body text to attachment? I could reduce beautiness of my email template by taking out header (jpg) or not using rich text. What exactly is forcing outlook to convert body to attxxxxx.htm file?
jhyiesla:
I truly don't know the answer to that question. Sometimes similar things happen coming the other way. I'll get emails in to my Mac Mail that have jpg files and I'll see the actual pictures in the body of the email.
I happen to also have Office 2008 for the Mac installed and when I sent my self a message and looked at it in Outlook 2000 and XP, the email looked "normal" in all instances. The attachment was marked as an attachment, text was where it should be and no att file.
There are other email clients that would probably work on the Mac like Thunderbird... but I'm guessing that you'd have a similar thing as happens with mac mail. Still it might be worth the download to test it out.
Goldblum:
I used entourage and same HTML template for email and have no problems. It is just so that entourage is as any other MS product "broken" out of the box but did good job and same message is not being converted to HTML attachment when it goes to outlook on PC. I will continue researching internet because it has to be solved. I can't send a message to client without comment to attached invoice. This is so not professional. I will play more with settings of mail.app to see what else can be done to avoid conversion.
jhyiesla:
Entourage probably works well with Outlook because they're both MS products and MS is going to have somewhat similar looks to all their Office products... although there is quite a bit of difference between Entourage and Outlook.

SAP MDM Vendor email addresses are not in order when sent to SAP R/3
Hi Experts,
We were trying to maintain vendor email addresses in this order in SAP MDM:
E-mail address: massupa@nexus
Sequence Number: 001
E-mail address: win@nexus
Sequence Number: 002
E-mail address: satita@nexus
Sequence Number: 003
But when saving the record, its order get mixed up like below: (I believe it was arranged alphabetically automatically---> is this the standard MDM functionality?!)
E-mail address: massupa@nexus
Sequence Number: 001
E-mail address: satita@nexus
Sequence Number: 003
E-mail address: win@nexus
Sequence Number: 002
When it gets syndicated to ECC, its order was maintained incorrectly with incorrect IDs:
E-mail address ID
massupa@nexus 001
satita@nexus 002 -
> should be 003
win@nexus 003 -
> should be 002
we checked both the XML Files and the IDOC and found that it has the same order maintained in SAP MDM
massupa@nexus 001
satita@nexus 003
win@nexus 002
But how come the IDs were changed in R/3?
Many thanks in advance!Hi Mike,
As per your requirement, i feel that for ID either you can create a new field say sequence ID in this e-mail addresses table of MDM and thus can syndicate it or can also use ID as key using remote key concept. I mean for this e-mail addresses table, you can set property Key mapping = yes in MDM Console and thus can use this IDs as key for this email address e.g. for massupa@nexus you can save ID as Key.
So during syndication, map this field with target IDOC structure field and I mean Remote Key under e-mail addresses table with IDOC ID target field. In this way you can have correct IDs with their corresponding email addresses.
Kindly let me know if you are looking for something else.

Photos are split in 2 files when sent by Apple Mai, why?
Anybody encountered the same problem?
if sending a photo by mail, my web.de account would show the recieved email with 2 files instead of one!!
Also if I send photos to my msn.com account, there appears the same phenomenon.
I can't open these 2 files with my Windows Pc, but if loading them to my Powerbook, I can open one file (the photo) but the other file would appear as a thumbnail and can't be opened by any program.
What's odd:
if I send a photo with apple mail in connection with iphoto, there would appear the same problem if choosing the original size of the photo.
BUT if I choose another size (big, or small for example) the
email arrives without any phenomenon. The photo is usable also in my Windows Pc then.
Another strange thing:
I use Apple mail/ entourage (on my Apple) for recieving emails. So if I send a photo with original size to myself (as an experiment) the programs actually show only 1 file as it should be. (Remember: the web.de account and the msn.com account would show the same email with 2 files instead!)
If loading the photo (any photo) manually by my web.de account and sending it with the web.de account the email would appear in every case with the one file (photo) as it should arrive.
Does Apple Mail have encoding problems? And why does my entourage program have the exactly the same problem???
Why doees the problem disappear if I change the photo size with iphoto in connection with Apple mail / entourage?I have to add something:
the two files the photo is split to are:
1) the bigger one is the jpeg file, the photo itself.
2) the smaller one is a TIFF file, which can be only displayed if loaded to my Powerbook. Its a miniature view / icon of the jpeg photo.
On the Windows Pc both files can't be displayed!
The pictures were taken with my Canon IXUS 800 IS and were imported through iphoto.
Another important thing I discovered:
Other photos, taken by other digicams make no trouble when sent by Apple mail or Entourage, ...
Anybody has an idea how to fix this? -
My pictures are saying delivered when sent through iMessage but the person isn't actually getting them. How do I fix this?
My pictures send through iMessage only to certain people. And others the message is saying " delivered" but the person on the other end isn't getting any of my picture messages and sometimes regular iMessages with no pictures.I was sure this curse was an Android feature since I had it constantly with my Nexus phones for the last two years, but sure enough it affects iOS8 too. Turn off wireless and and your MMS will go out fine over cellular ever time (in my experience anyway). Ridiculous, right?

Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari. How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail?
You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink. This person receiving my email, while on a Mac with Safari is reading their mail through Safari using Horde--our recent discovery. Why they chose to do that in unclear. The last email we sent, however, was miraculously read and received and the attachment was viewed with no problem after we told them our mail was coming from a Mac thriugh Apple Mail. It seems that telling them that our emails were coming from a Mac and using Apple Mail was enough to make them think that perhaps THEY were doing something not quite right. Thank you both, Level 7 and Level 5.

OS X asking for admin login for every email sent in Apple Mail
I am having an issue where I am getting the administrator prompt for every email I send through Apple Mail (Yosemite 10.10.2). Not to be confused with the email account specific password issues that are common... Here is the prompt:
I get this prompt with every email I attempt to send. I am assuming that this is a Keychain issue, but I ran Keychain First Aid which didn't find any issues and also Reset my Default Keychain and that hasn't cured the issue. The only other thing I am wondering is if it might have something to do with an old install of Server that was on this machine from Mavericks.
Any ideas?Turns out this was related to a preference I hadn't seen before that was on after upgrading to Yosemite. Each email was set to send with a digital signature and as soon as I turned that off, the prompt went away.
Follow up question: was that the expected behavior for that setting? Should it have been prompting me for each email sent if I did indeed want to sign each email? -
What is the recommended number of clients per Mac server? Also what are some recommended specs when purchasing an Apple machine that will have Mac OS X server installed? We have around 300 clients that need to be enroled on the Mac server. I want to know what is the recommended amount of clients a Mac server should contain. Also what are some recommended specs to make sure the server will flawlessly?
Hello cpreasbeck,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
I was able to find the following transition guide for Xserve that provides some workload guidance to determine performance when planning a server deployment.
Transition Guide Xserve
http://images.apple.com/xserve/pdf/L422277A_Xserve_Guide.pdf
On page 9, Performance there is a chart that provides maximum numbers of connected users for various activities such as file sharing, mail, web, calendar, directory services and Time Machine and the CPU used as a server (Xserve, Mac Pro, Mac Mini). This information is a bit dated as the referenced software is Snow Leopard Server (OS X 10.6), and the hardware is older also, but it should give you a general idea of what you might need to look for.

Safari web page sent via apple mail to entourage - block submission
.. at this point, I'm just wondering what it is about a web page sent via Apple Mail (great feature!) which causes Entourage to display the warning "For your security, Entourage will block submission of this form"? ..
.. in particular, what are the file types in this kind of message via Apple Mail which need to be "allowed" in the Entourage Attachment Policy .plist? ..
.. a side note - even the microsoft entourage support webpage dealing with this issue sent via Apple Mail was blocked! ..You're suffering from two common misconceptions.
1. You will never get a response from Apple when you submit a crash report. The reports are used internally, if at all.
2. This is not Apple tech support. This is a forum provided by Apple for users of its products to discuss technical issues among themselves. No one here represents Apple or knows anything about your contacts with Apple. If you want support from Apple, click the Support link at the top of this page.
