How do i view an email attachment without saving it first?

I would like to (and used to be able to) view my yahoo attachments without having to save them or download them. Is that still possible? Yahoo says that b rowsers handle that (mostly jpg attachments)

Hello,
Please open settings and under '''applications''' (in option) see whether the file types (png,pdf,jpeg) have correct action. If they are always ask they will ask where to save file or do you want to open with some app. If they are save then they will be saved without asking.
For more info you can read the following:
http:// http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
read the following too:
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/applications-panel-set-how-firefox-handles-files?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Options+window+-+Applications+panel Additional info]
Hope it helps.
You can get back with your problem and we will try to help you further.

How do I print Mail attachment without saving it first

I'm new to Mavericks. With Mail in Lion, I could scroll to the bottom of an email and double click on the icon for the Word doc or pdf attachment to open it, then hit command P to print it. With Mavericks, it appears that I have to first "save" the document somewhere and then open it and print it. Is this correct?
In most cases, this is an extra step that is unnecessary.
Right now, the attachment displays (opened) within the email, but I don't want to print several pages of an email when all I want is to print the attached doc, for instance, an attached invoice. Also, I can't tell what kind of document it is without saving it, which I don't like. I've tried to find a way around this in preferences but no luck.
I guess what I'd really prefer is to go back to the old Lion version of Mail, or something that approximates it more closely. Do I need to just get over it and realize that I'm going to have to save every attachment if I want to print it or is there a workaround of some sort?

Hi tbirdvet. Even though the content of the attachment now displays as part of the email message, I tried clicking on that portion of the email and, sure enough, the "attachment" popped up in Preview, just like you said. (I kept looking for a Word doc icon or a pdf icon to double click on, but they're no longer found at the bottom of the email or selectable from a drop down menu.)
I'm so glad this worked. Thanks.

How can I print only the attachment without the email content

How can I print only the attachment without the email content. Every time I send to print, It prints the email itself with the attachment- can I cancel that?

Hello Riklama,
When you first open the attachment (e.g. on your phone) than you can mail only that attachment. Works fine with my husbands blackberry.

How do you print an email attachment and not the email itself. please.

This question was solved.

Hi there, if there is text in the body of the email it will print automatically when sent to an ePrint email address. The only way to just have the attachment print is for there to be no text in the email body.
Hope that helps answer your question.

How can I manage six email accounts WITHOUT them all appearing (twice) in the Folders column?

How can I manage six email accounts WITHOUT them all appearing (twice) in the Folders column?
All I need is ONE INBOX (like Windows Mail used to do) ...
I can see in the 'Account' column of each message which email account it's using.
Then, I either junk or read the message, followed by delete or file to one of my created folders.
As it is, half my page is depth is taken up by 12 lines of Account names !!!

That still leaves SIX lines of Account names down the side. All I want is ONE INBOX ... (I can see which account each message belongs to in the 'Account' column...)

New document: How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems

Have you ever had problems with PDF attachments sent from Adobe Reader for iOS using Share > E-mail Document?
You may find this document useful to avoid the problems.
How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems
Please let us know if you have encountered different types of problems with PDF attachments. We can look for solutions or workarounds for you.

Unfortunately, we (Adobe Reader mobile team) do not know if/when Apple will fix the attachment problems (software defects) in Apple Mail.
In particular, the attachment problem with Microsoft Outlook (See Problem #2 in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems) appears to be a long-standing defect that has been known for years. However, Apple has not provided any fix for Apple Mail yet.
Adobe Reader for iOS merely launches Apple Mail (the default mail app on iOS) to send a PDF document as an attachment. Adobe Reader has no control over whether or not to embed a preview image of an attachment in the body of an email message, which is known to cause the problem with Microsoft Outlook (on the receiving side). The same problem happens when you send a single-page PDF document as an attachment along with an email signature from Apple iBooks on iOS.
For now, all iPad/iPhone users can do is to avoid the problems by using the workarounds that are described in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems.
When new and different problems with PDF attachments are reported by Adobe Reader for iOS users, we will update the document above.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

How do I view an email message source

How or what should I do?

Could you check your actual Firefox version here:
Help > About Firefox
The forum recorded version 10, which is obsolete and insecure, so if that is correct, you should update ASAP. If there is something holding you back from updating, what is it? There may be a solution.
If you do have the current version of Firefox, this article might help: [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]].

How do I customize the Email Attachment name in Email Bursting?

I had worked on BI Publisher extensively on 10g and 11g. I have a client requirement with BIP email bursting to deliver the reports as email attachments. I'm able to do it, and also customize mail body etc. However the email attachment file name is randomly generated with some numbers. I read through the docs, and couldn't find any parameter mapping to the attachment/file name (like we do it with File bursting). How do I specify the mail attachment file names in my Busrting properties?
Thanks,
Padma

Please go through the following link:

I think after the 'Output' we can specify the filename

I get a file named "File.bin", but i need a file, which is only named "File".
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot

Hi Ralf,
Ref: Receiver Mail Adapter
The attachements are given a .bin extension by default. To change this , the procedure is available in the Mail Adapter FAQ : 856599
Q: Can I choose the name of an attachment in the mail?
A: Yes. Most mail clients use some heuristics based on some MIME headers to derive the name of an attachment. The MIME headers involved in most heuristics are Content-Type, Content-Description, and Content-Disposition. When you create an XI message, the XI payload name is automatically set in the Content-Description. If you want to change or set all of these headers, you can use the MessageTransformBean module (Note 793922) in the adapter framework.
Related questions: How can I set the file name of a mail attachment?
Q: How can I set the file name of a mail attachment?
There are several MIME headers that play a role in how the client retrieves the file name of an attachment. Unfortunately, this behavior differs among various mail clients. The reason for this inconsistent behavior comes from the fact that this mechanism has been extended incrementally. The old way is to use the name parameter in the Content-Type header as specified in RFC1341. For example, you can set the content type of an XML attachment as:
Content-Type: application/xml; name="abc.xml"
RFC1521 discourages the use of this name parameter in anticipation of the new header Content-Disposition, which is defined in RFC1806.
With this Content-Disposition header, you can set the file name as:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abc.xml"
Some clients may show the Content-Description value as the file name. The Content-Description header is typically used to associate some descriptive information to an attachment (RFC1341) as in
Content-Description: my xml file
To avoid potential interpretation problems, it is recommended to combine the use of these headers.
Also, the same note contains all info you wnat on the options of the mail adapter. Take a look at it.

Jai Shankar

CiscoWorks: How to receive reports in email attachment?

Hi,
Please guide me that how I can get scheduled reports in Campus Manager in email attachment.
I am unable to receive email for the schedule reports saying error says that unable to connect the smtp on port 25.
In the location CS->Server->System Preferences Enable E-mail Attachment (Checked)

try to telnet on the port 25 of the SMTP server and see if you can.
also you can check the anti-virus and the firewall if it's blocking the connection.
else you can see the sniffer trace output while the LMs try to send the E-mail
hope this helps

How do I save an email attachment to iCloud

I am trying to save an email attachment to the cloud. How do I do that?

Save the email and forward it (along with the attachment) when you need to send a copy somewhere. Depending on the type of document it is, if you can open it in some app, and if that app is programmed to sync to iCloud, then that's a way to get it to icloud. Just tap and hold your finger on the attachment icon (in mail) and from the pop up menu choose the app to open it in - if there is an app capable of opening it.
For Pages, Numbers, etc. formatted files, you can open them in the appropriate Apple app, and if you have set up an iWork page on icloud.com, then you can save the doc to iCloud via the Apple app (Pages, Numbers, etc.).
