How to disable mail inline attachments yosemite

Since installing Yosemite I have customers unable to download pdf attachments sent to them with Mac Mail. I purchased Attachment Tamer some time ago but it isn't yet supported for Yosemite and given the time taken I suspect it may not be updated. I believe the problem comes from the handling of attachments as "inline". Has Apple or any one else got a solution for this problem?

I need to disable mail forwarding for few users. TO achieve this I implemented a script which deletes "mailForwardingAddress" and "mailDeliveryOption: forward" for those users periodically. Though these delete operations run successfully, the forwarding still works.What do you mean by "the forwarding still works"? Remember that Messaging Server MTA processes have an LDAP cache which can take 10-15 minutes to expire. So changing the forwarding setting may not be immediately reflected.
What output do you get for the command:
./imsimta test -rewrite <users email address>
I read somewhere that an ACI on the LDAP attribute for forwarding would work. But I'm not sure how to do this.If you don't know how to create/edit/maintain LDAP ACI's then you shouldn't be going down this path. A small mistake can result in large problems.

  • How to remove mails (and attachments) permanently?

    Hi!
    I just realized my Archive.mbox (~/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes) is quite big (8.5GB) and I decided to remove old mails with large attachments.
    As I use GMail account via POP3, first I removed mails from the Google account and I freed up about 1.5GB extra space. Later, I searched for mails with attachments in Mail.app, then sorted then and started to remove and emptied the trash. This operation was quite weird as some of them where moved to the Trash folder, some not.
    As I was controlling the space of the Mailboxes folder this is what I noticed:
    - Archive.mbox - the size of the mbox didn't change (anyone know why?)
    - Deleted Messages.mbox increases while removing another mails then decreased while wiping it out (this is what I expected)
    In summary, I removed a lot of mails and didn't free up ANY space! Does anyone know how to do it properly?
    Also, while googling I found out about "Mail Downloads" folder which is moved from Library to ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Mail Downloads. As I set "Remove unedited downloads" to "When Mail Quits" can I simply remove all subdirs from this dictionary to save some space? This folder is only used for copy of attachments, right?
    Thanks for anwers,
    Bart

    Each IMAP account it's own Archive folder. POP accounts all share the same Archive folder.
    I removed a POP account in Mail but the archive messages did not delete. You would need to move them out of the Archive folder then trash to remove if you have archived other POP account messages. However, if it's only the one account, you can manually delete this folder in the User's Library then rebuild the Mail index.
    Quit Mail
    Go to the User's Library folder. This folder is hidden by default. To unhide: Select the Finder in the Dock. Under Go in the Menu bar > hold down the Option key and you’ll see the Library.
    Scroll to Mail folder.
    Mailboxes folder stores the "On My Mac" messages. IMAP accounts store it's Archive folder in the account's folder.
    In Mailboxes you'll find the Archive folder. Delete.
    In the MailData folder, delete the 3 files with envelope in the name.
    Open Mail and it will reindex your messages.
    Let me know if this helps.

  • How to recover mail settings in Yosemite

    I am running a number of mac computers all having the same IMAP email accounts on them. I had an issue with two of the mail accounts where the emails were getting stuck in the outbox. I read a couple of posts that suggested deleting the mail boxes and starting again. I did this, but low and behold, when i inputted the mail settings again they did not work at all. I messed about with it for a day and even tried apple support (I have an apple care pack) but they couldn´t help me. All i want to do is recover my mail settings from the last time I knew they were working fine, I have a time machine (one apple official one and two other external hard drives that I use as time machines, just in case)
    any ideas? i´ve searched the forums but no one has had this issue resolved via TM recovery and Yosemite.
    Many thanks
    Dave

    Hi Dave, I have this issue too and wondered if you had to call your Internet Service Provider or how you solved your dilemma.

  • How to edit mail.app attachments without resaving them?

    It seems counterproductive that mail.app forces all email attachments to be READ-ONLY. This means you can only VIEW attachments, you can't EDIT attachments unless you resave with new filename, edit, then fish it out of the folder and reattach it when forwarding it to others. This is a huge headache and waste of time. Other email programs do not have this limitation.
    Does anyone know how to open, edit, save, and then FORWARD the attachments? This is critical for people dealing with alot attachments daily who need to make changes and then forward to others. Thanks.

    Hello there tbluhp,
    It sounds like you need Mail to stop downloading attachments automatically. You should be able to do that in the Adanced preferences for the mail account in question:
    Advanced accounts preferences - Mail Help
    Automatically download all attachments
    Mail always downloads media attachments (such as image, PDF, video, and audio files). By default, it also downloads other types of attachments (such as spreadsheet or zipped files). If you don’t want Mail to automatically download other types of attachments, deselect the checkbox. Downloaded attachments are included in Mail searches.
    This option is available only for IMAP and Exchange accounts.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • How to disable boot chime in Yosemite?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to disable the boot chime in Yosemite. Previously I was able to do this by way of a terminal command (sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume=%80) but this doesn't seem to work in Yosemite.
    I know why the boot chime is useful and why I should just mute my speakers before shutting down, but I just want it disabled once and for all.
    Besides the use of 3rd party apps, is there any way to disable it?
    Thanks for any input.

    This worked in Mavericks 10.9.5.
    I had this scrapped from someone else's post.
    Basically what it does is when you log off, it mutes the volume. On log-on, it un-mutes so your normal volume returns.
    -Create scriptfile for muting:
    sudo nano /opt/local/bin/mute-on.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    osascript -e 'set volume with output muted'
    -Create scriptfile for unmuting
    sudo nano /opt/local/bin/mute-off.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    osascript -e ‘set volume without output muted’
    -Make both files executable:
    sudo chmod +x /opt/local/bin/mute-*
    -Check if any hooks already exist (these will be overwritten, so make sure it is OK for you)
    sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook
    sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LogoutHook
    -Add hooks for muting
    sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LogoutHook /opt/local/bin/mute-on.sh
    sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook /opt/local/bin/mute-off.sh
    –to delete the hooks, use the following:
    sudo defaults delete com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook
    sudo defaults delete com.apple.loginwindow LogoutHook
    -Note that script files must be owned by root.
    I wish Apple starts rethinking these unneeded clutters that really annoys new mac users.

  • How to disable Mail as default mail reader?

    How can I stop Safari from trying to open Mail when I click on email links? I got a new backup laptop, but do not want it to download messages from my POP servers, and just use my email accounts through Safari itself.
    Thanks!

    Hey ala and david,
    I guess to be clear, I was looking for a solution along the lines of what the Webmailer preference pane does: when I click on a 'mailto' link in Safari that it will open up my gmail account instead of opening up apple mail. Basically, I want my backup ibook to behave a bit more like (gasp!) a PC in that respect, as I want to keep my apple mail downloads on my main computer.
    I'll try both the creativetechs and webmailer utilities after work and see how they go. thanks for the tips.

  • How to disable idle logout from Yosemite?

    Hello,
    My iMac logs me out after being idle for an extended period of time, usually 40-60 minutes. Generally I am streaming a movie from my iMac to my Apple TV when i notice it as when it logs off it quits playing the movie. It is very irritating.
    I have done the following as per google & forum searches
    - Gone to Security in Sys Pref and ensured that the Require Password after x is unchecked - Done (was never checked)
    - Gone into Energy Saver to make sure that the computer is set to NEVER sleep display (<-i know this is unrelated) or computer, as well as ensure that Put Hard Disks to Sleep is unchecked as well.
    At this point I am not sure what else to do, is it perhaps a system process that is initiating this? Can I tell in a log some how?
    Thanks,
    James

    Hi ..
    System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General then click the Advanced tab.
    You may be prompted for your admin password to proceed.
    The window offers a time limit for log out determined by minutes of inactivity
    Make sure that's not checked.

  • How to disable mail forwarding to external email address

    We had a serious security issue with people who had forwarded automatically using Apple Mail filters messages to an external email address.
    We want to avoid in the future that a user in the Apple Mail program can create filters.
    It should not be possible that the incoming mail is automatically forwarded by a user.

    Sorry, but unless you prohibit any access to Mail, what you're seeking isn't possible. As long as a user can send mail, they can forward it to whomever they like, even if they don't use any Rules.

  • How do you disable inline attachments in mail

    how do you disable inline attachments in mac mail?

    The only way possible to send a non-text file by e-mail is as an attachment. Different e-mail programs will handle JPEG attachments differently. Some will show the attachment within the message and some will not.

  • How do I stop duplicate attachments showing up on sending Mail?

    I've just started using Mail, and find that attachments embed themselves in the message I want to send as well as as an attachment. On the other end the document appears to have two attachments, one of which won't open. (Word document, recipient using Windows). Same when I send to myself.
    Also, when I send and receive photos, they are embedded in the message, as well as attached. I want to disable the embedding feature. Can anyone tell me how?
    Thanks, Frances

    The attachments are not embedded. It is called inline or viewed in place which is different.
    When attaching image/photo attachments and smaller PDF attachments (1-2) pages, these type of attachments are shown inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default which cannot be turned off - when sending and receiving.
    You can control-click on a viewed in place attachment and select View as Icon. Regardless, all Mail.app attachments are sent as true attachments to the message.
    Depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such attachments may appear inline or viewed in place with the message is opened by the recipient (as with the Mail.app) or as attached files only which must be opened separately for which we have no control over.
    I prefer this feature since it ensures that I have selected the correct image/photo attachment before the message is sent and I always add all attachments after I've finished composing the message below all text.
    You can use a 3rd party Mail.app plugin called Mail Attachments Iconizer which can be downloaded at the following link.
    http://lokisw.com/index.php?item=MailAttachmentsIconizer
    Regarding the two attachments that appear, the extra attachment is the Apple resource fork for the file which is invisible to fellow Mac users. This doesn't occur with all Windows users since it depends on the Windows version and email client and version the recipient is running.
    Beginning with Panther (10.3), the Mail.app includes a send Windows Friendly Attachments feature.
    Check Windows users have problems with files I send and be sure to include the filename extensions, such as .doc, in the names of all files you send to Windows recipients. This way the files can be read by a Windows application.

  • 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!

    Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
    As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
    In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
    If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
    I completely agree.

  • How can we send multiple attachments in a mail from iPad 2

    Hi,
    I am using a ipad2. I want to know how we can send multiple attachments through mail from iPad. I did not find any option of doing this. Is there a way to do this.
    Regards,
    Satyabrat

    You can't do it natively on the iPad (unless you just want to send up to 5 photos from the Photos app). I use the GoodReader app which supports quite a few document/file types (e.g. PDF, Excel, Word, pictures), and from that I can select multiple files (including different types) and attach them to the same email.
