How do I integrate sound within a mail message?

Hello,
I need to integrate sound within a mail message. That is, when the recipient gets the message the sound will autoplay.
I tried attaching the sound file (small mp3) to an HTML mail message and autoplay it using the BGSOUND or EMBED HTML tags (referring to a content-id that I set with MimeBodyPart.setHeader( ) ), but the sound was not played when the message was opened by the recipient...
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lior.

Of course not. Mail clients are being fixed so that they don't automatically execute attachments in messages any more. Far too many viruses were being spread that way. Even JPG images were being used to transmit viruses.

How to extract the content of a mail message?

Friends,,,
How to extract the content of a mail message?
the message does not contain any attachments or images.
its just a plain text..
if i use message.getContent(), in addition of the content it returns headers information also...
but i need only the content of that message...
if i write code like this:
String content = (String) message.getContent();
it gives cast exception...
if the message contains only plain text, no multipart, then which method is useful to extract only the content?
please tell me friends..
thanks in advannce,
regards,
Venkata Naveen

Message.getContent() does not return headers for a simple text/plain
message. If you're getting headers, something else is wrong.
Also, casting the result to String should work.
Most likely the message really isn't a simple text/plain message.
Provide more details and we'll help you figure out what you're
doing wrong.
Also, please read the msgshow.java demo program included with JavaMail.

How do I retrieve an erased voice mail message?

How do I retrieve an erased voice mail message?

If you accidentally erase a voice mail message, DO NOT HANG UP. Continue to listen to the rest of your messages and save or erase as needed. At the end of the messages, I hope you hear a voice prompt that says, "To check erased messages, dial 19." I did this and the erased message played again and this time I saved it! I do not know if this will work when you hang up and call back. Hope this works for others.

How to move photos from an e-mail message into a PSE-4 catalog.

I have an Earthlink e-mail message with a large number of photographs that I want to move into my PSE4 catalog but I don't know how to do it. I'd appreciate some definative instructions on how to accomplish this. The photos are in my windows XP computer. P.S. I'm not very "computer-wise".

You have to use your e-mail program to save the photos to individual files on your hard disk. Then, in PSE4, File->Get Photos->From Files and Folders and point PSE to your newly saved photos.

OS X 10.8 - No sound when receveing mails, messages or reminders

Hi,
Since my new MBP Retina bought last summer i've noticed that from time to time there is no sound when receiving an email or a message.
Obviously i've checked the preferences, all is ok.
No problem on my iPhone or iPad.
Any idea ?

HI,
I was talking mainly about the Messages app rather than the Mail App.
The New Messages (As Mail Calls them) can have a sound set in Mail Menu > Preferences > General section.
I am not as familiar with Mail as I am iChat and Messages and cannot say for certain if the Mail App plays the sound when you are in the General Section and testing the sound (or Changing it)
The System Preferences > Notifications does not play the sound linked to the app when turning the Sound Option On.
I have noticed that sometime in the case of iMessages in the Messages app that is syncing with an iPhone and iPad that the iMessages are sometime received quietly on one device or another.
For me my iPad is the most silent but it is also the least used. (Then I realised I have not updated the Apple ID password on the iPad).
I also notice that when I use the "Get Mail" button to test the sound and I have no new mail I get a different sound to anything I select.
Broadly speaking both Mac and iOS device should play whatever sound is linked to new mail or new Messages depending on App.
Having checked further I am am not sure if we were talking about the same thing and also whether my System is behaving as it should or like you suggest there is a random issue with apps playing alerts sounds.

How do I browse my hotmail e-mail messages (while zoomed in) without having to scroll down for each new e-mail (after pressing up arrow for next message)?

In other words, I want to be able to change the default starting scroll position from 'top' to 'bottom' or customize this to 'somewhere in between' so that I don't have to scroll down before reading each new e-mail message.

Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
[[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
[[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

How do I format the text in mail messages?

I receive some mail messages that extend well beyond the screen and I have to scroll a long ways to finish reading one line. Is there any way to format the mail to automatically fold these long lines so that i can read them without so much scrolling?
Thanks for any help.

Copy paste the content of the message to Textwrangler from http://www.barebones.com/
Then use its word-wrap options.

How to disable internal TNEF format for mail message?

for exchange 2007/2010
my configuration is as follows:
1. i've added a RoutingAgent, that catches every message that its subject contains
a specific word, then - re-routes it into a dummy domain (dummy.com for example).
2. i've added SendConnector that catches dummy.com in the address space, and
routes it to a smtp listener.
If i send mails from outlook client to another user in the domain, it seems
that outlook wraps the smtp request in TNEF format (where the body and attachments are replaced with winmail.dat file).
If i add a recipient which is outside of the exchange domain, the smtp request is sent well in a regular MIME format.
can i somehow change the internal handling to simple MIME format? i need to
relay it to an external IP...
i tried to disable it in "Remote transport" - didnt work, because i'm routing
those internal mails.
thanks!

How to change To address in Lion Mail message list pane

I quite like the new Lion Mail app although I return to "Classic Layout" whenever I need to sort and clean up my inbox, but for general use the two-column layout with the message list on the left and the selected message content on the right works nicely for me. I would however like very much to change the "To" line in the message list. Currently my list of received messages shows "To" on the first line to the right of a picture of the "To" person. On the far right of this line is the time or date of receipt in blue. Under this first line is a little icon with "To" or "Cc" - sometimes, and that is followed by the subject. On the right of this second line is the mailbox and account. I have set preview to no lines to keep the list as compact as possible.
What I would dearly like to change is the To address in the first line. I know who the To is - it's Me! Occasionally the To shows another name if that person precedes my name in the list of recipients. What would be VERY useful is if this data showed the From address!
In the Classic View I can move the email columns around, adding new columns and removing them. Either way, in my inbox I can have the From address right in front of me. Is there any way of changing the To address to the Originator address - the From address - in the message list in Lion mail?
Thanks - Lawrence

Thanks, but that controls the header detail shown for the message in the right pane. So if I select a message in the message list on the left pane, the method you describe controls what header detail I see in the right pane when the selected message is displayed. The piece of data I really want to change is the first line of the message information contained in the message list in the left pane. It currently shows the To address in this window, which is useless to me; the From address on that first line - next to a picture from my address book of whoever is sending the message - would be infinitely more useful.

How to increase the viewing size of Mail messages

Hi, All
I am using Leopard 10.5.4. and new to Mail.
I would like to set my message font size to size 10 for composing and reading incoming mail. However, when I am composing a message or reading an incoming message that is in size 10, its incredibly small. So I have to set it in font 12 in Mail preferences just to read it. But then when the mail goes out, its in font 12. Is there someway I can increase the view (like 100%, 150%) without changing the font size? I tried the COMMAND+ but it becomes blurry.
Thanks in advance.

I'm going to assume you are using the latest version of iPhoto. After you've chosen which photo(s) to email click Share > Email from the menu. Once you done that there's a button in the lower right corner where you choose the size of photo you want to send.
