Hiding attachment previews in Mail

Hello,
Does anyone know if it's possible to stop attachments from previewing in Mail when you compose a message?
I hate how JPEGs & PDFs appear so huge in the compose field as you're trying to type an email.
Thanks
Anna

Hello Anna,
When you compose a message in Mail, you can make the pictures/PDFs look like just an icon.
To do so just right click on the file and choose : View as Icon
Like on the screenshots I provided :
And then you should see just an icon :
Hope this will help !

Can i switch on/off the automatic attachment preview in mail?

Dear Communitie!
I can not find the setting to switch on/off the preview of mail attachments in mail app.
My colleagues can few the .pdf attachements direct in the preview area of there mail programm. I have to open the link's to see the complete .pdf's. It is the same with .jpg files in signatures. I only see the link of the file. To see it in full version i have to click on it.
Do you have any hints?
Thank you for your help.
kind regards
Gerhard

If the PDF is a multi-page document then it may not show a preview in Mail. To trigger the mode you want though, right-click the attachment and choose "View in Place" to show its contents in the Mail window, or choose "View as Icon" to show it only as a file.

Disabling the attachment preview in Mail

I regularly email large attachments for graphic purposes -
(JPG, TIF, EPS, PDF, etc)
but I am frustrated with the long wait for attachments to preview.
I would rather it didn't preview at all as I know what is there.
Is there a way to change this?
Thanks

Should do it

Is it possible to disable inline email attachment preview in Yosemite?

I was hoping that there would be an option/setting in Yosemite to disable inline email attachment previews in Mail to view an attachment as an icon. Attachment Tamer seems to be the only work-around, but it isn't available for Yosemite yet. Any suggestions?

Thank you, Ralph.
Yes, I tried all of that. The best I could find is Mail > Edit > Attachments > and check "Always Insert Attachments at End of Message." Its better than nothing!

Cannot disable automatic attachment preview in Mavericks Mail?

Hello All,
I noticed after upgrading to Mavericks that Apple Mail started automatically previewing attachments again... I had disabled this in previous versions of OS X. I tried to disable this again in the terminal using:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
But after re-starting Mail, attachments are being automatically previewed again.
I consider this a security issue so I would like to disable automatic attachment previewing as soon as possible. Has anyone been able to do this with the Mail included with Mavericks yet?

Just a basic examplo: getting an email with an open image, that the 2 people around me can immediately see, can pose a serious security for anything I'm doing with my Mac!
So, you see, SECURITY is much more than a mere technical problem!
Cheers
That's a privacy problem, not a security problem.
If you are receiving images in emails that the others arround you are not qualified to see, your office setup is the security problem, not Mail.
Use a different email client that gives you the option. I have no idea what those are, though.

Disable attachment preview

I work in the graphic world and I receive lots of mails with heavy attachments. I would like to switch to Mail (from Entourage), but my problem is that Mail seems to display all attachments in the preview pane. Because of the size of the attachments, this slows me down and is of no use, since I have to edit them anyway in another program. How can I get rid of these attachment previews, while keeping the text preview (as Entourage allows)?

Take a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

Smartform - PDF attachment through E-mail issue

Hi,
A custom form and custom program was created to print the Purchase order information through ME21N, 22n and 23n.
It also has E-mail option. when output medium 5(Simple mail) and 7(External send), email will be send to respective mail-id's with the PDF attachment.
I have issue at the time of saving PO which processed with medium 5. when i save A popup appears "Express document update was terminated received from author". Brief message about it is
"Error Info... 00 671: ABAP/4 processor: COMMIT_IN_POSTING"
In Smartform driver program i am using below function modules to convert OTF into PDF and send through e-mail.
Function Module: CONVERT_OTF.
Function Module: SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.
I am not sure, what i missed out. Can you guys tell is this the correct way to send PDF attachment through E-mail or i missed out any function module for commit.
Regards,
Hemanth.

Turning off Image Preview in Mail.app

Hello, my computer is reasonably fast, but another one that I use (also on leopard) is an older mac Mini and its really slow. Unfortunately it really gets really slow when someone sends me an image file and the preview kicks in.
Is there any way to turn off preview in Mail.app?
If I really want to see a darn image I can always just d/l it and open it through finder....
Thanks

Unfortunately this preference is already turned off.
Another instance of this same is when I attach an image file to my files and send it off. I don't need to see what's on my pdf when I email it out, I just want to see the icon to know its attached to the message.

Using header paramter SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH in Sender mail adapter

I am trying to check if an e-mail contains attachment in reciever determintion
I set the Variable Header XHeaderName1 to be SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH
in Sender mail adapter
I added a condition in the receving determintation
XHeaderName1 = yes
I see the DynamicConfiguration tab in sxmb_moni and the value of SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH is "yes"
but the message fails with the error
No receiver could be determined
any ideas?

Hi,
In Receiver determination you need to set SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes instead of XHeaderName1.
As far my understanding, in receiver determination you need to verify the condition with SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes (check with syntax also ie. case sensitive and all)
Thanks

How to download / read text attachment in Sender Mail Adapter IN XI

Hi
I would like to know how to download / read text attachment in sender mail Adapter & sent same attachment to target system using file adapter.
Please help how to design / resolve this concept.
Regards
DSR

I would like to know how to download / read text attachment in sender mail Adapter & sent same
attachment to target system using file adapter.
Take help from this blog:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/18/xi-sender-mail-adapter--payloadswapbean--step-by-step
From the blog:
However in most cases
our message will not be a part of the e-mail's payload but will be sent as a file attachment.
Can XI's mail adapter handle such scenarios? Sure it can but with a little help
from the PayloadSwapBean adapter module
Once your message (attachment) is read by the sender CC, you can perform the basic mapping requirement (if any) to convert the mail message fromat to the file format.....configure a receiver FILE CC and send the message...this should be the design...

Facing problem with logo in the PDF attachment when sending mail...

hi friends,
i'm facing problem with logo in the PDF attachment to the mail.
my requirement:
1. enter spool number and mail id in the selection screen.
process:
1. now the program will fetch the spool data and converts it to PDF.
2. but when i'm trying to send mail with this PDF as attachment.
when i open the PDF file from the mail, logo is not coming properly (looks disturbed).
can anyone help me how to resolve this issue...
thanks in advance, murashali.

hi dinakar, thanks for your mail...
logo looks good in spool/script/smartform.
even it look good when i download this spool to pdf and to the presentation server as pdf file.
i'm using CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF.
when i used CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, is gives a msg - 'spool number not found'.
here i'm using folloing code to pass pdf to the function module: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
code:
Transfer the 132-long strings to 255-long strings
lt_mtab_pdf[] = pdf[].
LOOP AT lt_mtab_pdf INTO lwa_mtab_pdf.
    TRANSLATE lwa_mtab_pdf USING ' ~'.
    CONCATENATE lv_gd_buffer lwa_mtab_pdf INTO lv_gd_buffer.
    CLEAR lwa_mtab_pdf.
ENDLOOP.
TRANSLATE lv_gd_buffer USING '~ '.
DO.
    lwa_mess_att = lv_gd_buffer.
    APPEND lwa_mess_att TO lt_mess_att.
    CLEAR lwa_mess_att.
    SHIFT lv_gd_buffer LEFT BY 255 PLACES.
    IF lv_gd_buffer IS INITIAL.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
NOTE: problem i believe is with ''. i'm getting this tilt symbol () in my pdf internal table. here in the above code the line   TRANSLATE lv_gd_buffer USING '~ ' is changing the existing tilt to space. so my logo is getting disturbed.
even i tried with REPLACE this tilt with other char, but it doent work.
can you give any idea...

I can't open the attachment to a mail. I must open it i FileApp. but it says that there no App installed that open this type of file. What can I do? I've got iPad 2, version 4.3.3 (8J2) My age: 69 and not so good at computers.

I can't open the attachment to a mail. When I'm trying to open it in FileApp, I get the answer: "FileApp doesn't recognise

When I open it as a text file, it's loading and loading.....forever?
What shall I do?
PS I'm 70 and not good at computers

Hello Mats in Sweden!
I'm from Austria, not so far away! The file that you've received seems to be a Windows Media File and you may need a special software for your iPad to be able to open it. I've found something HERE.
If you open this link on your iPad it should take you to the App Store, resp. open it. The price for this app is 1,59 €.

Open attachment from AOL mail

What is your operating system? Reader version?
If you download the attachment to your local disk first, then open it from there, does it open?

Open Attachment option in Mail opens incorrect invite in Calendar

My issue: if I double click or use the Open Attachment option in Mail for calendar invites, an invite from 2 years ago opens in Calendar for me to accept. If I use the Add to Calendar function, no problem & reads like it should do.
I upgraded to ML about 2-3 weeks ago and Mail was spectacularly painful with the merge from SL not working at all. Calendar seemed to be ok, however this usse has started to appear in the last 24 hours.
Ivites can be accepted no dram using the iPad or my wifes iPhone just seesm to beon the Mac that its a problem.
Any thoughts/ideas/fixes would be great.
Cheers.

How to send ALV list report as html attachment in a mail??

Hi all,
I have an ALV report which I want to send as an HTML attachment in a mail to an external id. I know that spool can be converted to HTML attachment in a mail. But I don't want to have 2 programs - one for generating ALV and the other to send mail with the spool-converted of the first report as attachment. I want to send the mail in the same program itself. Is it possible? Helpful answers will be suitably rewarded.

Hi Sandip,
In your ALV program after the alv output is build in the program do the following steps.
1). Export the list to memory
2). Import the list from mempry
3). Do a COmpress of the data
4). Send an email as an attachment using the normal FM.
Take a look at the following links which will explain how to do the above steps.

remember to change the doc type as 'HTM' in the FM to send email.
