Embedded images in mail

How do I email graphics without embedding them and without having to zip them?

Either use the attachment feature in compose (with Windows friendly attachments checked), or simply drag them onto the compose window. Then select the graphic (or other attached file) with a right-mouse button and choose View as Icon from the menu.

No embedded images on mail

In Mail, I can not see any embedded image. The attached images no problem, but the ebedded are seen as a blue square with a question mark.
No newsletter visible.
I have checked the "view remote images on HTML messages", but , .....nothing
Any ideas????
Thanks

I think I discovered the answer which, if true, was a real coincidence. Just at the time that I was getting the "No error" message each time I tried to go into the tracking site, I noticed that the Apple Store was down. As soon as it came up, I was able to get into the tracking site. I am sure this was the problem but it sure was strange how everything came together.

Anyway NOT to send images as an inline/embedded images with Mail

Hi, I would like to know is there anyway or any Apps out there that would let me email pictures from the iPhone that is not inline/embedded images. This is starting to become an issue because at work Lotus Notes does not allow the receiver to save images that I send from the iPhone onto their computer because the images does not appear in an account. Instead the images are inline/embedded.
If anyone have a solution to this without using additional programs for the user with Lotus Notes that would be great. Thanks!

I have no idea, but a photo attached to an email with the iPhone's Mail client is not embedded in the message body. A photo attachment that appears inline or viewed in place in the message body is not the same as being embedded. Although the Mail.app on a Mac and the iPhone's Mail client displays photo/image attachments inline or viewed in place within the body of the message for received and sent messages, it depends on the recipient's email client if such an attachment appears inline or viewed in place when the message is opened, or if such an attachment must be opened separately to be viewed. Either way, it is sent as a true attachment to the message.

Viewing Embedded Images in Mail

Hi, using an Apple IPhone 4 running OS 5.0.1. I am receiving emails from IP camera software that has images embedded into the email instead of attached to it. Problem: all I see is the first image that was sent; this image is embedded into all subsequent emails instead of the actual photo. Have tried different email providers with the same result. Are there any workarounds to this issue? Or can anybody suggest a decent third party app?

Then I wouldn't try restoring if you got the same results with a Blackberry.
The iPhone supports standards compliant MIME attachments.MIME is the industry standard for encoding/decoding attachments, which the iPhone uses.
If the same with a Blackberry, there is something not standards compliant with the email.
Is this person is using a 3rd party app in conjunction with emailing the photos?

Embedded image in html body of the email is not appearing in Outlook mail box

My application Basically gets the un delivered emails from the outlook account.Composes the email from information then also appends the signature of email.The signatures may be multiple , form will show these signatures as a dropdown usin webbrowser control there both image as well as links appear well.But the same if draft them to outlook drafts folder the image in the signature misses and shows image not available.II fetch the signature from user local signature folder , convert it base64 string and set the string as source for image element and append this body of the email.I basically use Outlook COM object to achieve thesepublic void AddImageContentToHtml(List<TamDetails> tamList,string html,string key)

Hi ssanjay.brillio,
According to your description, you'd like to send a email with an embedded image in the signature.
I suggest you sending the image in the last of the body of email instead of operating the signature of email.
The following example codes demonstrate how to send email using ImportHtml method with embedded images.
SmtpMail oMail = new SmtpMail("TryIt");
SmtpClient oSmtp = new SmtpClient();
// Set sender email address, please change it to yours
oMail.From = "[email protected]";
// Set recipient email address, please change it to yours
oMail.To = "[email protected]";
// Set email subject
oMail.Subject = "test HTML email with embedded image";
// Your SMTP server address
SmtpServer oServer = new SmtpServer("smtp.emailarchitect.net");
// User and password for ESMTP authentication, if your server doesn't require
// User authentication, please remove the following codes.
oServer.User = "[email protected]";
oServer.Password = "testpassword";
// If your smtp server requires SSL/TLS connection, please add this line
// oServer.ConnectType = SmtpConnectType.ConnectSSLAuto
try {
// Import html body and also import linked image as embedded images.
// 'test.gif is in c:\\my picture
oMail.ImportHtml("<html><body>test <img src=\"test.gif\"> importhtml</body></html>", "c:\\my picture", ImportHtmlBodyOptions.ImportLocalPictures | ImportHtmlBodyOptions.ImportCss);
Console.WriteLine("start to send email with embedded image ...");
oSmtp.SendMail(oServer, oMail);
Console.WriteLine("email was sent successfully!");
} catch (Exception ep) {
Console.WriteLine("failed to send email with the following error:");
Console.WriteLine(ep.Message);
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

Why can't I print embedded images in a Thunderbird E-mail? I just get blank boxes for the images.

I am a copyeditor who receives feedback from my clients re: manuscripts I have edited. They will often sent e-mails that include small screen captures from parts of their style guide or screen captures of the proof that is in question (small sections, like a paragraph or an equation, or a header that needs to be coded/styled differently for HTML). Now, I can see these fine in the e-mail, but when I go to print them out for my reference binder, the embedded images don't print.
Mozilla, I need these to print; they are quite important to my job.
To keep my e-mail from becoming too bloated, I save these important style issue e-mails into a folder on my desktop I call "Print out for binder", queuing them for the day I can print a bunch of them out and arrange them according to subject matter.
Problem is, they are useless if they don't include these illustrative screen captures; blank boxes are worthless to the context.
It is not my printer that is the problem. if I receive a Word doc with these screen captures, they print fine. But if I try to print from T-Bird, no go. Help. (I can't save these e-mails as Word docs either, which might solve the problem; the only options in T-Bird are "Save as file" or "Save as template".)
Thunderbird is a powerful e-mail program, and one I have been using for over a decade. Why can't it perform this function? Please help. Or point me to an add-on. I haven't been able to find one that addresses this seemingly straightforward, common, and simple problem.

When you select File(or AppMenu/Print)/Print Preview, do the images appear? Do the images print if you check 'Print background (colors & images)' under File/Page Setup? I don't have any problems printing a message with an embedded image, at least to an xps file.
I devised a workaround that might help, failing a real solution: install [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/unmht/ unMHT] in both TB and Firefox, and then File/Save As MHT in TB. Open the mht file in Firefox, and Print.

Mail not showing embedded images

This problem has been bugging me for a while.
I am getting some emails (from my company communications) that are incorrectly formatted by Mail. I see big boxes labeled "Missing Plug-in". The rest of the text is there, but those big boxes make the mail hard to read.
So today I decided to look a bit deeper into the problem. I brought it down to the presence of image tags that call for embedded images (included as attachments) using the "cid:" protocol. For example:
<img src="cid:[email protected]" alt="Find" border="0">
Is this a restriction in mail (I am running mail 6.1 on Mountain Lion). Or is there some config parameter I need to tweek to enable support for embedded images ?
Thunderbird has no problem. I also did a quick check with Google Mail and Yahoo Mail, and neither show the images. But they just show nothing, so the resulting email is still readable. Mac OSX Mail shows big boxes with the "Missing Plug-in" note. I would be happy if Mail just ignored the images.
I should point out that mail on iPhone and iPad work fine (they display the images).

Just download the fix and double-click it - next time you open mail, you'll see your attachments.

Mail not displaying embedded images

A few weeks ago, Mail suddenly stopped displaying embedded images in email messages - newsletters, product announcements, etc. The Viewing Preference is still set for "Display remote images in HTML messages," yet all I see are place holders. In my Junk folder, if I click on Load Images in the Junk banner, it refuses to load those images. They simply remain as place holders.
Anyone else experiencing this problem? Suggestions?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8) Using Mail v. 2.1

Hi gumnutnijna,
Does this only happen when using your GMail account? Do you have any other accounts set up on your BlackBerry smartphone to test with? Also, to confirm, are the messages still in your GMail account inbox on your computer?
Thanks.

Mail 6.0 does not display embedded images

This was true in the prior version as well, but now I'm about to give up on the product.
While HTML emails do display images ("Display remote images in HTML messages" is checked in preferences), those with embedded images do not. Instead, I get a series of attachments, which I can go through with QuickLook (but alphabetically by filename, not in the order in which they're embedded in the email).
This can't be how it's supposed to work.
FWIW, the emails do display properly in other mail clients.
All suggestions much appreciated.

I was beginning to think I was the only one having this problem. I can view animated GIF's in my Verizon Yahoo account with Safari but not in Mail 3.0. Can also view it in my .mac account only if I go on the web to view my mail. Cannot view them in my .mac. account with Mail. All my settings are correct also. It sounds like there is something buggy with Mail 3.0. Mail 2.x worked fine with animated GIF's with me.

Embedding an image into Mail

How exactly do you embed images (.jpeg) into a mail message so that it does not come up as an attachment?
Gmail, outlook, yahoo mail, etc. all read attachments as an attachment that needs to be opened and only through Apple Mail can users see an attachment already opened (giving the appearance of an embedded image, but it's not).
Any help on embedding images into Apple Mail (besides through using the signature)?

I tried creating a Stationary but I am fairly new to Mail and am unfamiliar with creating it successfully. I create it, then it creates the Custom folder in which my stationary will not show up in the mail message. It will show up in the folder, I just am unable to get it to show up in the message. Is there a format to creating stationaries? Or perhaps a different way to embed images?

Mail problem with embedded images and links

Since Yosemite Apple Mail seems to have a problem with images that are used as a hyperlink to a website.
While links are clickable with external loaded images work fine, links with embedded images just do not anything. Clicking on them selects them, a double-click opens the image in Preview.
This works:
<a href="https://www.google.de"><img src="https://www.google.de/images/srpr/logo11w.png" alt="Google Logo"></a>
This does not work:
<a href="https://www.google.de"><img src="cid:logo_google" alt="Google Logo"></a>
Can you reproduce this problem?
We tried it with OS X 10.10.1 and 10.10.2

After a bit of digging around I think I have found the reason for the EO being called prior to the CO. In the parent page CO, there is a transaction commit (oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean).getTransaction().commit();).
Therefore, I assume that as my custom AM is a child of standard AM where the transaction is being commit, the child AM is sharing the same transaction/session and hence the EO being called.
I am running into issues with moving the validation to the EO as the validation requires visibility of the VO values to calculate a total value. Therefore is there a way to ensure that my custom AM maintains a separate database session/transaction to the parent/standard AM? Is it possible to break the parent/child relationship?
This way I assume that the commit issued by the parent page CO will not affect my custom AM/EO.
Cheers.
Jon.

Annoying behavior when opening mail with embedded images

When I open an email that have embedded images within it, I am finding that Mail is always seizing control of the scrolling and is forcing the mail message to return to the top of the page. This happens while I am scrolling though the message and repeats until the message is fully loaded. Does anyone know if there is a work-around or solution to this problem? I find it very annoying, especially if it's a message I don't really care about.
Thanks!

I am having the same problem, and would love to know an answer for this, too.

Mac Mail has problems to display HTML embedded images

Well Im new here , but have a real problem.
I create HTML pages with embedded images and send them off as MIME/multipart etc. mail through active server pages.
So far so good. All PC users see the mails with 2 embedded images at correct positions using windows e-mail .
However all Mac users receiving this mail have a problem, then MAC mail show embedded images just as a box , the 2 images become attachements of the email.
If a PC user forwards such a received HTML e-mail to a MAC user , the MAC Mail sees the 2 images are correctly displayed.
Thanks for hints and comments .

Hello BDAqua
Thanks for the dump hint - I could use it.
Well I have not been able to track down the exact cause of the problem, but at the end I have succeeded to see the pictures even on the Mac. Initially , because I tested the HTML code against Safari/Foxpro/IE9 with success and the PC's received it as a mail perfect with the pictures , I ruled out the code.
After sending it with various different parameters for 7-bit coding , multipart/alternative; multipart/mixed, with and without alternative ascii-text body, etc. and having no change of the problem (in one instance Mac stuck the pictures at the end of the mail instead of having it as attachement - but never displayed inside the page) I thought about the HTMLcode again (the mail small but was consisting of a cluster of multi nested tables, where in the pictures where placed). I started from scratch with one simple table and one picture - and saw it also on the Mac, so repeated reconstruction every table layer and picture with testing each step again - and at the end - it worked all. So my conclusion is that the mentioned browsers and windows mail are made more HTML fault tolerant for little code mistakes than mac mail. It seems that when forwarding the page from windows-mail to Mac mail , windows even corrects and thats why then it was seen ok on the Mac.
I think that a number of people had similiar experiences. I contacted one advertising company (all Mac freaks and only Mac's there, they do a lot of Internet/Intranet design and develeopments for large companies) and asked them wether they know of any hints or problems - they simply said forget it it's not possible - which is not true - but seeing the HTML correct in all browsers doesn't mean it might ok for the mac mail.
Well any way I now know where I am and know where to look if suddenly a picture is not shown anymore...
Thanks for the help and all the best.

Mail 5.2 doesn't display embedded images

Mail 5.2 (OS 10.7.4) no longer displays embedded images. This happened after I installed an AirportExtreme wireless router. I can send images as attachments, but received mail with images displays blue box with ?. Using "download image" has no effect. Mail/preferences/ has " Display remote images in HTML messages" checked. The answers to similar questions don't seem to apply, or I just don't understand them. Can anyone advise me?

johngar wrote:
I have tried forwarding the incoming message from my iPhone, which does display the images correcty, and from another account on my desktop. In both cases the thumbnails contain only "?" and "download image" does not work.
Ignoring the forwarded message from the iphone, is the message you forwarded from another account also a message that was originated on your iphone?
The mail program on the iPhone, which is supposedly the same as the mail program on my desktop, displays the thumbnails correctly and they expand to give the full size image. I take this to mean that the fault is not with the source of the images. I don't know how to imbed images, as opposed to attachments, in my e-mail, so I can't produce my own example.
What makes you think the mac mail program and the iphone mail program are the same program? I don't think that.
The reason I wanted you to send a message to yourself on your mac using the mac mail was I wanted to get the iphone out of the equation. If you cannot embed images in the mail message that is because all image, etc. are handled as enlosures due to the way the mail protocol works. Perhaps that is why messages from the iphone appear the way you are seeing them, i.e, there's no way to embed an image and the iphone mail is not converting it to an enclosure.
If you are going to test from an iphone try sending the image as an enclosure and see if mail can handle that.
