I seem to be having attachments stripped from email

Guys
I am running mac mail and I seem to get attachements stripped that people send. Not all the time and not overly large attachements either, but most turn up then id say 1 in 8 gets stripped and there is no attachment when I recieve the mail
PLEASE HELP AS IT DRIVING ME MAD !!!!

Do you have a web access to your email account? If so, take a look at the emails there and see if the attachements are being stripped by your email provider first. Could be that certain types of attachements are getting flagged by their security SW.

Attachments missing from emails after iCloud sync

Hi there
I am running Outlook 2010 in Windows 7 Home premium to access a POP mail address. I have created rules on Outlook to forward my emails from the POP account into the relevant IMAP folders of my @icloud.com account which enables me to access my emails on an iPhone and iPad.
This system has been running smoothly for some time, however I have recently noticed a problem that has developed over the last month or so:
Every now and then, attachments on emails that I have received do not sync onto my peripheral devices ie. the iPhone and iPad.
This is not specific to a particular sender or file type and seems to occur at random.
When I view the email in Outlook, and via the iCloud web interface the attachment is there and can be viewed/downloaded etc.
The attachments are only missing from the iPad and iPhone. Has anybody ever encountered an issue like this? Perhaps there is something that I am overlooking?
Thanks in advance

Well. I make an export Archive from iCal.
Then deactivate from the iPhone (Adjusts - iCloud) the Calendars.
For now, I will not use iCloud for calendars. I do not understand why we end with two Calendars. One from iCloud and one from the iPhone or the Mac itselves.
We must have just ONE calendar for all.
I use CalAlarm app from Devart and with the iPhone icon selected on iTunes I had to uncheck and check on Information label Sincronize Calendars of iCal.

I am having difficulty downloading attachments (i.e. pdfs, photos) from email. Is there a way to improve this process?

In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".

You first have to subscribe to iTunes Match through iTunes on your computer and have your music library in iTunes uploaded/matched before you can enable it on your iOS devices (see http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/). Without a computer you won't be able to use iTunes Match.

Importing directly from bluetooth & directly from email attachments

Why isn't there an ultra simple way to import photos into iPhoto directly from bluetooth and from email attachments WITHOUT having to save the photos in a directory first and then import from the directory???
It seems dumb that I can't just zap photos directly from my mobile phone into iPhoto and even dumber that the "save" option for email attachments in Mail doesn't give a "send to iPhoto" option instead.

... and even dumber that
the "save" option for email attachments in Mail
doesn't give a "send to iPhoto" option instead.
It does under Tiger (OS X 10.4). When viewing a message with attached photos, click and hold on the small grey Save button next to the subject. At the bottom of the menu which pops out, choose Add to iPhoto. Done.

Attachments missing from sent emails

We just started having a strange email issue today. Emails sent using POP3 accounts have their attachments stripped out of the email. If you look at the sent items folder the email has the attachments but the person on the receiving end gets
an email with no attachment. It doesn't matter how big or small the attachment is, ho many attachments there are or what type of attachment they are.
This is happening on outlook 2010 and 2013 clients (those are the only 2 versions we have).
The operating system is Windows 7 pro SP1. All updates have been applied.
This is happening on all computers in the domain (SBS2011 server)
The outlook clients have one profile with an exchange server account and one or more POP3 accounts.
If I remove the exchange server account or create a new profile with only the pop3 account we do not have this issue.
I have uninstalled all antivirus software on the computer
I have created a new profile in outlook
I have done a system restore to roll back to the OS state before windows updates were installed the night before we started having the issue.
I have removed the signatures from outlook in case they were corrupted.
I have uninstalled Exchange server 2010 Rollup version 7 which was installed the night before the issue started.
I bypassed our local firewall
I have started outlook in safe mode
None of this solved the issue. As stated above exchange rollup 7 was installed and some workstation updates were installed the night before this happened. I figured that one of those 2 events caused the issue but uninstalling them did not help.
I need some fresh brain power on this one.
Thanks in advance

There are no attachments on the receiving end.
I enabled protocol logging on the outlook clients and there is no difference in the SMTP log between an email sent successfully and when the attachments get stripped.
This is happening to all the workstations in the domain. I have done online and offline (boot from CD and scan all local drives) virus scans and I am confident it is not a virus issue.
I would love to get rid of POP3 but we still use it because our sales staff have to send email using several different domains and using pop3 allows them to reply to emails and have them sent back out the same account (domain) that they were received from.
The cause of the issue was either exchange rollup 7 or one of the workstation updates. Both events happened the night before. We have been running this configuration for years and those are the only events that changed in our environment.

I am having trouble sending bulk emails (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account using group names created from my address book. I use Mail on my I-Mac. When I try to send out a bulk email, the message shows up that my server can't send them, etc.

I am having trouble sending bulk emails from a Mail Group (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account. They come back saying the server can't recognize the data and try again with selected server or try later or edit message, all of which I have attempted a number of times, including re-booting the computer. I am wondering if there is something wrong in my Address Book? I have check Apple Preferences, and Mail Preferences and all seems in order. I can send to any of the individual addresses, but not in a group.
Thanks for your help.

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

That is only present if you have already updated to iOS 5 or later. If you're on iOS 4 you can only update while connected to your computer's iTunes.

You can't access iCloud from your iPhone unless you're on iOS 5 or later. Otherwise, refer to this article:

Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

PDF Attachments Removed from Mac Mail, show up in .Mac webmail

I have two clients that receive autogenerated PDFs from our ColdFusion server to their .Mac mail account. They had no problems receiving these attachment PDFs with Tiger, this problem is new with the Leopard 10.5+ operating system.
These e-mails have a little bit of text, a logo inline and a PDF attachment. In .Mac Webmail I see the image, the PDF attachment and all is well and good, strangely enough.
In the Mac Mail (v3.1) I see the text, the image and NO PDF attachment (it only says there is ONE attachment (the inline JPG), when in fact there are TWO. It seems that the PDF is being completely stripped from the message when received from .Mac's server. If I send the user a PDF from my MS Outlook, or any other e-mail client, it's received fine.
Anyone have a similar issue, and have you found a fix? Or any ideas where I can troubleshoot from here?
I'm stumped.

The thread here discusses the same issue, and the Command Y hack worked for me. There's got to be a better way.

Outlook 2010 with 365 stripping attachments off of email that have been drag and dropped

In my office we just switched to 365 and since this I've noticed that roughly 1/3 to 1/2 of my email with drag and drop attachments are having those attachments stripped off.
Several times a day I send an email that has 6 attachments, mix of excel and pdf, and the excel called 'Checklist' I attach by drag and drop often get stripped off the instant I hit the Send button.
I will literally be looking at it, as one of 6 files, hit Send, and in my sent box there are only 5 files, the Checklist is gone! It's random; about 1/3 to 1/2 of them do this. Others make it through.
Please let me know if there is a fix to this? I'm having to resend attachments about 6 times a day now!

Hi,
Please send several test emails with attachments on OWA, check if this issue will occur.
If the issue is on client only, we can start Outlook in Safe Mode to test, this can eliminate the influence by 3rd-party add-ins:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
In Outlook Safe Mode, send several test emails with attachments to see if the problem will ever occur. If no, we may suspect the issue was caused by some add-ins, go to FILE -> Options -> Add-Ins to disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which one
caused the problem.
We can also test with a new profile to setup the account, a new profile will be a new environment for the account, we can check if the problem will occur with the new profile and you don't need to remove the old profile.
To create a new profile, go to Control Panel -> Mail -> Show Profiles -> Add.

Why can't I remove attachments from emails in the Sent items folder?

I Recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, and so far, there are at least a couple of things that puzzle me.
One is that now I don't have the option to "Remove Attachments" from emails in the sent items folder. It seems to work normally
in the Inbox and Drafts folders, but not in the Sent items. Go figure ???
Another thing that bothers me is that in Preview, when I save a screen shot, or a scan, etc., I no longer have the option of saving it as a GIF
(which, when better quality isn't absolutely necessary, is often much lower in KB or MB than a PNG or JPG, etc.. When I store lots of things as such images, I'd rather have that option.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have now created a smart mailbox as described above (good idea), and although I have some 50 messages in my Sent box, all with attachments (waiting to be removed so I can store the messages in the proper mailboxes), the smart mailbox is empty. So, Mail doesn't recognise these messages as containing attachments.
This led me to think that maybe Mail has been redesigned to work the way you would expect it to, at last; to contain a link to attachments instead of including them in all their bits and bytes. That would mean that the messages in my Sent box - with attachments - could be stored in local (or server-side) mailboxes without taking up extensive space.
But then I checked the size of my Sent Messages folder inside the Mail Folder in Finder, and - whoops - it's 50+ MB. So the sent messages do contain attachments all right. And Mail doesn't recognise these, since a) the smart mailbox trick says that the messages are free from attachments, and b) the Remove Attachments menu option is disabled.
I will have to wait for the next Mail update, and my Sent box will grow accordingly ...

Since i reinstalled OSX i am having trouble downloading my email attachments

since i reinstalled OSX i am having trouble downloading my email attachments. I have updated the system.

I am using a new Apple TV streaming box. I cannot seem to get any itunes movies to completely download. If they do completely download, it often takes a day or more. Even when the download is apparently completed, ATV will often re-authorize the movie purchase...and the download process begins again. That is about the time I send emails and get refunds. NETFLIZ works beaitifully - fast, easy to use, NEVER a problem. I use a MAC, iPad too but have not synced either with ATV.
Am I doing something wrong? This is incredibly frustrating for my family!!!!

There seems to be a few bugs with iCloud Mail at times, so send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Email with Attachments - the FROM address

Hello,
I am using the Email with Attachments QPAC and filled out the FROM tab with my email address that I want to use. However, when the email is sent, the FROM email being used is the one that is configured for the Workflow Server. So, why is the FROM address specified in the QPAC not being used or what is the point of this From tab? I would assume we can specify something differently from the Workflow Server's email?
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi
There is some weirdness in the logic of the Email QPAC.
Populate the "Login Name" field in the QPAC with some dummy data, and then uncheck the checkbox that says "Use Authentication". The QPAC will ignore the Login name, but will start observing the from address.
Weird, but it seems to work.
Thanks to Michael Sherwood for the workaround.
