HTML Email preference notification

Hi all,
I have a issue where a user enables his Notifications Email style to HTML mail in the morning. The next morning it has been disabled.
I know that it cannot happen by itself, therefore something is happening in the back ground when his PC is off.
Please help.
Thanks
Ben

Hi Hussein,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, there are a few users of the same business unit that experience the same issue.
They set the email style to 'HTML mail' and click on apply. Then in the morning it has changed back to 'Disabled'.
I have followed the steps below of document 360541.1 and will test in the morning.
1. However, for only the WF_LOCAL_ROLES table, do the following:
2. As System Administrator Responsibility >> Define User >> query up user with issue:
a. Remove the Person Field >> save.
b. Re-query the same user >> add back the Person Field.
c. Save >> have user log out/in >> retest.
d.This effort does an internal synchronization for the particular use.
3. At this moment there is no way from the UI for the system administrator to change the notification preference for the FND_USER_PREFERENCES table.
4. After this, the concurrent program Resend Failed Notifications can be used to resend those FAILED notifications.
Kind Regards
Ben

How to send html email notification in bpel

hi gurus,
i want to send html email notification from bpel.
before, i already successful send html email with attachment, but when i send an email without attachment, then the body message will turn into a plain text.
as i check from the email accepted, email with attachment will have a mime type "text/html" but if no attachment then it will be "text/plain"
from the bpel configuration, by default the mime type already set to "text/html; charset=UTF-8", below is the sample configuration in my bpel process

make sure you put the mime type multipart/alternative into the email payload content. by default, when you add attachment, it will generate mime type multipart mixed automatically.
if you don't change it to multipart/alternative, your email will show a attachment, but actually your email doesn't contain any attachment.
and then for the message and mimetype make sure you have that ns10:bodypart, because this email already been set as a multipart email.
when you add attachment, by default it will generate 2 body part, first one is for the body message and the second one is for the attachment. since i only want to use the body message only, then i have to erase the second bodypart
with this workaround, i can send a html email without attachment perfectly.
but i have to take note, when i updating the email process from process design, then the source will be generated again automatically, and the edited one will be replaced.
thanks.

Make sure you upload all of the images used in your email to a server you control. Then, change your image paths to point to those uploaded images with absolute links.
You will get marked as spam if you attempt to send images as attachments to a large list of recipients and most email clients won't download images to begin with, so make sure your html email makes sense with broken pictures.
CSS support is spotty across email clients, if you use css, make sure it's inline, not embedded in the <head> or externally linked in the <head>. Some email clients strip out the <head> section entirely.
Basically, you need to design your html email as if you haven't moved out of the 90's yet, as far as web design is concerned, in order to get maximum cross client compatibility.
Then, when you're ready, I would suggest using a service like www.icontact.com or www.constantcontact.com if your subscriber list is anywhere over 100 or so recipients.

Why is my HTML email showing up wrong in different email account?

I've seen this before and I think it has to do with CSS (which I realize isn't supposed to be in emails), but I'm super new to this and have scoured the internet to find out exactly what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it. It shows up properly in my Yahoo acccount, but not in my Gmail accounts (which initially threw it in Spam, if that has anything to do with it). I only know the very basics of HTML and CSS, but still have get this work done and I'm assuming someone will be able to view the code and see what my issue is pretty quick - I hope! It previews in browsers just fine, it's only when I'm click "Forward to a Friend" to send it to myself to test.

Many mail clients reject images, JavaScript and embedded CSS styles. For best results use plain text near the top to communicate your message and give a link to the actual web page on your server.
For mail clients that do have limited support for HTML, use uncomplicated tables and inline CSS rules (inside the body tag).
All that meta data description is a red flag to spam filters. You shouldn't be using meta description or keywords in e-mails.
The article below has some good tips & resources for reliable e-mail templates you could use:

PSE9 - having trouble with "html email sender verification" page

We have just purchased the PSE9. This is our first venture into a photoshop program. We are wanting to send some of our pictures to friends via email. Just after we push the "share" button, to create an attachment for the email, we get this page "html email sender verification." It contains in the first blank, our email address (given), a button "resend email", and a blank entitled " Sender verification." Below this box are the words:
"If this email address is not correct, or you would like to use a different e mail client, you can change your email settings by clicking Cancel and then choosing
Edit ->Preferences->sharing."
At the bottom right are two buttons, "OK" and "Cancel"
When we put in our email address into the "Sender verification" box, and press "OK" the next window is entitled "HTML Email Sender Verification" . The only words on the page for us are in red and they say:
"Your email could not be sent because an unkown error has occurred. Please try again."
Then we have the option of pushing the "OK" or "Cancel" button.
Can anyone help us get beyond this obstacle?
THANKS!!

You need to enter the email id in preferences. Once you put it, you will receive a verification code. You need to put this verificaiton code in the sender verification window. This is required if you are using Adobe email service. You can change the email provider from sharing preferences.

HTML Email Problem

Hello,
I am creating an HTML email. I sent the email to someone who
opened it with Entourage on a mac - it looked great. Then I sent it
to some people who use Microsoft Outlook - it had some issues - the
main div tag was extending all the way to the right of the window,
but I had set the div to a fixed width of 600px. Also the image
maps that I had created for external links were now not over the
locations I had put them on (they had shifted out of place)
As I said, no problems in Entourage - it displayed and
functioned exactly how I intended. But in Microsoft Outlook, I had
the above issues.
Any help would be much appreciated. I can send you the email
so that you can see what I am talking about.
If this is not the right place to post concerning HTML
emails, I would appreciate some guidance as to where I should go.
Thanks
Kit

Yep. As does JangoMail.

MS SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow Email - Enhanced Rich Text Field look-up values on HTML email have large spaces

MS InfoPath 2010 form with RTF (Rich Text Fields)
MS SharePoint 2010 Custom Library
MS SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow Send Email
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/send-e-mail-in-a-workflow-HA010239042.aspx
https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/pages/creating-html-emails-with-spd-workflows.aspx
Hi all of the above work, our question is how to control the RTF (Rich Text Field) look up values to the InfoPath 2010 form in the HTML email?
How to FORMAT the RTF look up value? in the HTML email
EXAMPLE
we have a InfoPath 2010 form published in the SharePoint 2010 custom list library there are 5 RTF fields (Notes1, Notes2, Notes3, Notes4, Notes5) there are other plain text fields, date fields, and other field types in the form
We use a HTML table to make the email look like the InfoPath form, so when the users fill out the form and they get the email notification everything looks the same.
Our problem is the EXTRA LINE SPACE in the RTF look up values
We want to remove any leading spaces, and line spaces between HTML table cells
Our Workflow has the HTML in a Workflow variable, as you know it does not support remote CSS it has to be in-line style for any formatting we want all cells to have
valign="top" the email should align at the top of the cell, all field types do except the RTF look up values they make the email look bad and they contain a lot of white space.
Please test this in your enviroment

Hi IssackB,
perhaps you may try this article:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f8fa2a11-9f74-4dd2-b277-21ce872fdcb2/can-we-add-rich-text-editor-to-the-sharepoint-designer-2010-workflow?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
there are some notes that perhaps you may check:
Use the same font for all the controls to ensure consistent spacing between rows.
Choose Size from the Format menu, and then choose To Fit from the menu that appears. This adjusts the size of each control, depending on the font set for the data that appears
in the control.
NOTE: The Print Preview and Output To commands use different algorithms for calculating text width; therefore, the text may occupy more or less
space in the RTF file.
Reduce the amount of blank space above and below the report controls. Any vertical
space between the controls is converted to whole lines
in the RTF file. For example, a
space of .02 inches can increase to .1667 inches in the
RTF file.
Make sure controls on the same output row are not too close to each other or overlapping. This can cause the Output To command to omit the controls or to align the columns incorrectly
in the RTF file.
Use the Align command from the Format menu to ensure that a row of controls is aligned properly on the report. If a row of controls is not aligned properly, the Output To command may place the controls
in different rows, causing extra blank
spacein the RTF file.
and please have a check there are updates for exchange 2013 and will be available with the upcoming release of CU4 for Exchange 2013, that stated the format rtf was saved instead HTML. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862739/en-us

HTML emails render as plain text. Restarting Mail.app resolves the issue

I keep seeing this problem every day. Occasionally when I receive an HTML email (e.g. a newsletter), the HTML isn't rendered -- instead some sort of plain text equivalent is displayed, which is full of entity codes and URLs to all the images in the HTML. Clearly not right.
If I restart Mail.app when this occurs, the HTML email is ALWAYS rendered correctly. It's really annoying having to do this every day!
It seems like it could be to do with leaving Mail.app running when my Mac is in Sleep mode -- the issue always seems to occur when I wake the Mac. When I have restarted Mail.app after the issue occurs, all incoming HTML emails are rendered correctly.
Has anyone else seen this issue and do you know of a workaround? How do I submit a bug to Apple?
Cheers,
Olly

Hi again:
The preference file is located in the home folder (~library>preferences). Occasionally (rare, but it happens) preference files become corrupted and then cause all sorts of odd behavior.

How do I turn off Apple Support email? I have gone to email preferences and checked "no" 4 times and the email keeps comings

Hello Mary
How to stop notifications from ASC. Frank Caggiano's document is very easy to follow … Stopping emails from ASC: Apple Support Communities
If you read this document and follow it carefully you will achieve what you want.

Can't change email preferences

Html eMail Newsletter

For those of you who have worked with me before - I'm trying, I really am.
I'm building a html email newsletter from scratch for the first time and running into a few issues.
I put this on a website so that you can access the code. http://www.merelyvinyl.com/newsletter_exp.html
On the surface I only see three real issues (a box extending beyond its area, text that won't align, text that won't adjust to the right color), but when I ask Dreamweaver to point out code irregularities - well there is one consistant issue I'm doing wrong over and over again. And one small issue with font sizing (code) that I can probably sort out.
That being said, as typical of me, I have bitten off more than I can chew. I've basically used two examples of email html and tweaked it to build what I wanted. So...........I can't tell whether my tags are overlapping or written in the wrong way (or both).
Yes, I know. Kind of a mess in there. What I find strange about html is when you try to tweak it - it invariably wants to get worse than it was originally.
Thanks in advance. Nancy I always appreciate your help.
MM

If you are planning on sending this to all your customers, I wouldn't think "just live with what we've got" would be a good response to have. How your newsletters look to the customer would either encourage them to continue to use you, or discourage them and you might find they "unsubscribe" from your notifications faster than you can send them out.
There is a lot of work to get the emails to look correct in EVERY email client but fortunately there are a lot of helpful guides around the internet to help with that. I have listed some below. All you need is one, fully working template which can then serve as the basis for all the rest. It's time well spent, in my opinion.

Problem saving email preferences for new iCloud email address

I was trying to enter a new email address for iCloud in the Apple Mail program and after clicking save I receive the following message,"Writing your preferences to disk has failed. Your preferences may not have been saved. The permissions on ~/Library/Preferences may be wrong or your disk may be fullI' I know the disk is not full on my new MacBook Pro. I went into LIbrary/Preferences but could not find the mail preferences.
The preferences have not been saved because every I time I start the computer the new email is missing from my email preferences.
Thanks for your help.

While you can't currently change your Apple ID to a Mobile/iCloud email address, I found a solution that helps with a related problem.
Suppose you've recently got an iCloud email address, but Apple are still sending all your iTunes Store, App Store and Mac App Store receipts to your old gmail address (the one that's still your Apple ID). And suppose they're also sending all the Apple Support Communities notifcation emails to your old gmail address. How do you change it? How do you fix it?
Well the option exists, but it is hidden away in a weird place. To get Apple sending all of their receipts and notifications to your new iCloud email address...
• Go to your country's Apple Store website http://store.apple.com/
• Click on the Account button in the top-right corner
• Under Account Settings, click on Change your default shipping or billing info
• Sign in with your usual Apple ID and password
• The email address listed under Payment Information is the key
• Click on Edit next to Payment Information and change that email address to your iCloud address
That's all you have to do.

I get too many ASC emails ... tried Frank Caggiano's solution but problem still unsolved ... even have all my email preferences set to NO ... any other suggestion? ... how do I get out of ASC?

i get too many ASC emails ... tried Frank Caggiano's solution ... even have all my email preferences set to NO .... but problem still unsolved....any suggestion? by the way, how do i unlist myself from ASC?

You cannot unlist yourself from the ASC. Only a host can do that and there has to be a very good reason for doing so, like a privacy concern or issue, something like that. If you do not want to participate in the community, just quit posting.
Did you also check the box at the top of the post that you participated in and check Stop Email Notifications? It is in the Actions Box in the upper right corner of each page on the website. You have to go back to the post that you were in and select that as well.
Do you see the Actions Box in the upper right corner of this screenshot?

Html email through safari not working

I usually send html email from Safari. Since I have upgraded to Mavericks the image links do not show up in my email (they appear as question marks in boxes) but the links work when clicked. Help - I need to send out a blast.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Sending HTML email to Lotus Notes

Guys,
We have to send en email to our customers in an intra net site. And our SMTP server is Lotus Notes. When ever I send html email, it is sent as attachment. Here is why that happens with html email:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21088385
Now I am looking for alternative ways to send html email using Java Mail to Lotus Notes client. My last option is RTF or plain text. But still how do I manager the URL links.
Thanks

Well, It sounds like you already answered your own question.
Answer
In Domino� 6.x and later, the following notes.ini settings are enabled by default for any user that has a setting of
"Prefers Notes Rich Text" in the "Format preference for incoming mail" field in the user's Person document:
MIME_Convert_HTML_To_Attachment=1
MIME_Convert_Alternates=0No matter what you code on your side. If you send your messages as HTML the Lotus Notes Mail Server will convert the the HTML to Attachments.
