Forwarded mail has no images

I have a new .mac account, so I am forwarding my old address email to my .mac email using rules in the OSX mail program. I have it set up to forward the mail to my new address and then delete it from the old address. This works great except my forwarded mail has no images (just text and space for images)(just blank spaces, no symbols). Also, most of the links do not work. Anyone have any solutions?
Thanks

Jason,
Forwarding should normally include attachments, images and links. However, forwarding of messages with RTF or HTML will often trigger a spam filter somewhere in the path which could then alter the message. You need to be sure that is not happening. To check this send, or have someone send, a simple Plain Text message with attached JPEG to your old account, and see if this forwards correctly.
What SMTP is being used by the old account, and who provides it?
Keep in mind that if you receive messages in your old account, then you can Move them to the .Mac account Inbox with a simple Move To command in the Rule rather than a Forward, and then they would be in the .Mac Inbox with the original headers instead of those headers that result from a Forward.
More info, please.

TS3276 On received mail, I delete sender's name, address, etc. then forward it. The forwarded mail has a duplicate of the original mail, show original sender's name, etc. How to prevent the duplicate from being sent?

How to prevent duplicate of orginal mail (with original sender's name, address) being "attached" when forwarded?

Maybe I am mis-understanding what you are seeing.
When I forward a message, the receiver will see the original mail (unless I edit it, such as removing any previous sender's information) and the length will be the same as the message was before forwarding except for the added line "Begin forwarded message" (again, unless I edit bits out), and there will be no attached copy of the original message.
So when you say in your reply above "The orginal email with the sender's name and address was also sent with my forwarded email." do you mean:
a) that it is still visible at the head of the text of the message (which I was saying does not happen for me because "after hitting delete, the previous sender's information disappears." [and since] "it has disappeared, it cannot be in your forwarded mail." Disappeared means it is not there.
b) another copy of the original message is attached to the forwarded email at the end, either as an included file or as repeated text.
c) some other situation.
Sorry about the previous mis-spellings! I hope that we can get to the bottom of this.

Help! My outgoing mail has the image of pink lips in the upper right-hand corner. I did not put it there; it is fun but not exactly professional! How do I get rid of it?

Please help! My outgoing mail messages arrive with an icon of pink lips in the upper right-hand corner. I have no idea how it got there. This is cute but not really professional. Does anyone know how I can get rid of it? Thanks!

It's been almost three years since I bought and set up my most recent Mac but if I recall correctly .....
When you initially set up your Mac, you were offered the opportunity to snap a photo of yourself in order to associate your photo with your user account on the computer. If you declined the photo I think the Mac will pick or suggest a picture from the preinstalled selections in the accounts pane of the system preferences. You can change the picture but you cannot delete it totally. That picture is part of your ID for that user account on the Mac.
If you want to change it, Open System Preferences and click on accounts. Click on your account to change the picture. You will have to unlock the preference in the bottom left corner - and to do that - you need to enter your password. Click on the picture of the Eagle and then all of the preinstalled photo choices pop up in another window. Select another photo and then clcik the lock icon again when you are done.

TS3276 Having trouble sending jpeg images as attachments in Mac email.....they go thru as images and PC users can't see the SAVE or QUICK LOOK boxes that Mac mail has. One friend scrolled over the image, right clicked on it and saved as a PNG file.

Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

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.

In my 16 gb iPhone 5, Mail has used up 5,6 gbs of memory. Trash is empty and there are a few mails in my accounts with no attachments. What's wrong?

In my 16 gb iPhone 5, Mail has used up 5,6 gbs of memory (and is increasing). Trash is empty and there are a few mails in my accounts with no attachments. What's wrong?

These are Apple's tips on this:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

Mail for exchange image retrieving

Hallo ,
Can somebody help me with exchange sync. The problem is that i recieve many times forworded mails. They have many signatures from anyone who has written there. So when i open a mail it continues telling me 'retrieving .png 'for example , and refresh the mail form the begining. If i read it , it turnd me back form the begining. so first 15 sec i cannot read the mail when open it because it dont stop to refresh itself for every image. In fact i stop the option for recieving image in the mail. from sett/phone / mail/message display/ image download - it is off. I think this is useful only for .jpg. So is there an option to make mail application not to refresh the mail for every singular part of one mail. Or is there a different sollution. Devide is n8

I am not a champion in reading these logs, however, I guess you face HTTP error 403, which means Forbidden, which means, you either have the wrong username/password or specified a wrong server URL. Did you double-check that, already?

Try force-closing the Mail app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Mail in the list at the bottom, tap an hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again.

ICloud Mail has been down (Mac, iOS, online) since last night. Anyone else?

Mail has been down completely since last night. Not able to access from Air, iPhone, iPad, or via Safari. System Status reports no problems. Other iCloud tools (Calendar, Contacts) seem fine.
Anyone else having this problem?

I've noticed this as well since about 10:30 EST. I used to have emails forwarding from another address and when I switched that off the other address is receiving emails instantly so it's definitely a problem on Apple's end. It's good to see that at least one other person is reporting the problem here, but it would be even better if Apple would update the status page. I can be very patient if I know it's a known issue for them, but hate seeing that all is up and running normally from their point of view when it isn't.

IPhone4 when replying or forwarding mail messages i get a message that says Cannot Send Mail address rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

When forwarding mail this is what i get
Cannot Send Mail
A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipent _________________(email address) was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.
Never had this problem before so not sure whats going on. Appreciate any help out there.

Sounds like there is something wrong with your SMTP server. Try going into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select the email account in question, go to the Outgoing server (SMTP) and check the settings. It may be you do not have a username and password in one of the areas. The phone may say optional in a couple, but it is usually mandatory. You can also try a reset on the device, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If neither of these work, then you will need to delete the account, then delete the SMTP server, then add the account back, ensuring you use your username and password everywhere, even when it says optional.

Not receiving forwarded mail

I am not receiving forwarded mail from a work-related web-based email site. Everything on that site seems to be okay -- only the address you want the mail to be forwarded to needs to be entered. It is correct so it should be going through.
I am thinking it must be some setting in Mail that is causing the problem. I have turned off all junk email filtering to see if that would solve the problem but it doesn't. If someone with the work address emails me, it goes through so I do not think that address is being blocked by Mail. No one else at work has a problem receiving forwarded email on their home computers. It must be something on my computer but I cannot figure it out.
Any ideas? I do have the Apple firewall on -- do I need to change something there?

Hi. I am having the exact same issue with my x2 forwarded domain names routed through Easily.co.uk. It also started around the same date as yours. My e-mail had been fine, but now I get a 'random' e-mail every now and again (as though somebody is letting the odd e-mail through, just to keep me happy), but I'm not even receiving 'test' e-mails I have sent to myself to my x2 forwarded domains.
The odd thing is that my spam folder is still accepting e-mails that have my forwarded e-mail addresses on in my online BT account, so they can get through, but the e-mails I need to actually receive are not getting through....and suprise suprise, BT have their usual 'BS'...'we are very busy at the moment' cobblers on the phone so I cant get through to speak to somebody about it. Anybody got any ideas??
Cheers.

IMail on iPad adds mailto: links in forwarded mail

Hi,
We run an application that parses XML attachments to mail and processes them automatically. If I forward a mail to the application mailbox from iMail on a desktop Mac, or any other mail application, it forwards the XML attachment untouched, as it should do. If I forward a mail from iMail on the iPad, it goes through the XML attachment and helpfully turns anything that looks like an email address into a mailto: link, which makes the XML invalid, and breaks the application.
I looked for an option in iMail to turn off the conversion into mailto: links, but couldn't find one. Is there a way to disable this feature?
Alternately, is there another action I can take to safely forward the mail? A "Forward Unchanged" action, or something similar?
Thanks for any advice,
- rob.

I got through to Apple support; apparently iMail from the iPad doesn't support XML attachments, and they have no plan for it to do so in the future. (Why it would be modifying the content of _any_ forwarded attachment, no matter what the format, is left as an exercise for the reader.) The only workaround according to Apple is apparently to not use the iPad to forward mail.
If anyone else has any suggestions, I'd still love to hear them.

Mail has been tampered with and I don't know where to look

I have a client who is going through a divorce and her soon to be ex-husband has tampered with her email on her Apple computer. She is running 10.5.2 and using the standard mail client. She noticed when she opens an email the email is forwarded automatically. No rules have been setup. There are no traces of the mail in the outbox or the sent messages folder yet she recieved some bounce messages saying emails weren't accepted due to virus/spam blocks. Where can I look to stop this forwarding action or what software would do this ? What logs can I look at ?

I see two possibilities here:
1. The situation is incidental. Do the messages she's getting the supposed bounce notifications for match ones she's actually received? The reason I put this first is that it wouldn't make sense to forward email to an address that's going to bounce, if the point is to spy on the emails. That would bring such activity to someone's attention immediately. If it doesn't seem to be happening to all messages, its likely this is actually the result of a spamming or phishing operation of some sort. Spammer spoof known valid email addresses, and thus you get bounces for messages you've never sent. A phishing tactic to harvest email accounts to use for spam has you get a supposed bounce notification, then you are offered a link to log in. The link of course does not lead to the actual mail site, and you provide your credentials to access the account which are then stolen.
2. If the mail is being forwarded, it has been set up at the provider end, and not at the local computer. Most webmail providers now offer forwarding service, especially Gmail. If one were to have access to the account credentials, or even just one time were able to access the account from the person's computer, they could set up the forwarding with the email provider. Nothing would be required on the target's computer, and nothing there would be changed.

Mail stopped loading images...

Over the past few weeks, my mail has stopped loading images - they are there if I go to www.me.com, but not on my Powerbook. Over the same timescale, the regular Apple Hot News feeds on RSS have stopped and I cannot access iTunes store - get the message 'error-2094'. Any help....?

When you receive email in HTML format (that is, as a web page), the message will usually contain links to images hosted on a remote server. When you display those images, the sender of the message will know that you've read his message, when you read it, who your ISP is, and approximately where you are. You may regard this as an invasion of your privacy. If the message is spam, then your address has been confirmed as valid and you've been confirmed as someone who opens spam messages. That will ensure you get even more spam.
If you don't care about the above, select
Mail ▹ Preferences... ▹ Viewing
from the menu bar and check the box marked

Forwarding Mail With "motion"

How can I forward mail which has motion in the body of the letter and retain the motion. All my efforts to do so just forwards the mail and all previous motion remains "static" or frozen.

If your OS detail provided is accurate - 10.3.9, you posted in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum which is for Tiger Mail and Address Book only.
Jaguar and Panther Mail render HTML received but do not support composing in HTML which includes when forwarding a message received that was composed in HTML which is required for such motion.
RTF with Tiger Mail is really HTML so you need to upgrade to Tiger or wait for Leopard's release.

Forwarded mail has no images
