In Mail, how to view graphical HTML emails?

I have received an email in graphical HTML format — a series of venues and dates for a band in the form of a grid. It shows up beautifully in webmail, but in Apple Mail it shows uselessly as unformatted and unpunctuated text. Is there any setting in Mail prefs., or some other subterfuge, that would allow such emails to show properly in Mail?

More information:
I have found the following two threads that deal with a similar problem. In my case it is a matter of how data is displayed (as unformatted and unpunctuated text instead of in a grid) rather than pictorial images. Here is a screen-shot:
And here is the link to the online version, showing how it should appear:

But I am nervous about trying the Terminal procedure. Should I?

How can I send HTML emails that display in Mail?

Hi,
I have an email newsletter that I recently have begun experimenting with in HTML. The problem is, when I try to use HTML, the message displays properly in things like Yahoo! webmail, but in Mail for OSX, it displays like a regular text message, images and formatting are not used. I'm sending the messages from PHPList. Is there something I need to add to my code to get it to display correctly?
Thanks much.
-Jonas

Well, I did check the layout in Safari, and it looked fine. Since I'm not sending the messages from Mail (since it's for a rather large mailing list handled by PHPList), selecting "Mail the Contents of this Page" wouldn't really do very much for me.
If I do try to send the page using that technique, it does work. But I have to use PHPList to compose and mail the message. I just need to know if there's any other code I need to add to make it display in Mail. I can receive other HTML emails no problem, but mine just shows up as text, disregarding images and other elements. I just don't know what's going on here.

How to send an HTML email?

Hey guys
For the longest time I've been wanting to send HTML emails with Mail, not for promotional stuff, but more for thanking our clients for their business. This is the perfect holiday season to send a Thank You email to them, but I don't want just to send a plain and boring text email, I want graphics on it. I know this wasn't possible to do with any previous OSX until Tiger. This is what the Mail page says... - HTML Message Composition - Mail uses the Safari engine to format newly composed email using HTML. I read another post about an HTML Script to work with mail but it got so confusing that I wasn't able to make it work. Can anybody tell how to make this work? A step-by-step tutorial would be great, not just for me but for all those Mail users that are trying to do the same thing. If Apple can send those HTML emails and Newsletters, why can't we? I don't think they're using a Windows computer or any other email software to do this. Better not! :P
This is the post I read, but it was posted a year ago, so I know there's got to be something more up to date.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=667497&ft=y&#667497
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello Luis.
Although RTF with Tiger Mail is basic HTML, you can't compose complex HTML within the body of a message.
You can use an HTML composer of choice to include embedded images/graphics and/or objects that are stored on a server (to be downloaded/rendered from the server) when the message is opened by recipients instead of attaching images/graphics to the message.
After saving the document, you can open the document with Safari to ensure the layout and settings are correct and at the menu bar, choose Edit > Mail Contents of This Page.
A new Mail.app message will open and the contents of the webpage will be copied to the message and it will be sent in its entirety.

Viewing Graphics in email 8830 software vs 4.2

I am unable to view any graphics in my personal email boxes. Even advertisments come as text. Is there anyway to fix?

OS Version 4.2 will not display HTML email, and no carrier has yet released OS 4.5 for the 8830 devices.

View Received HTML Emails - ONLY Displays Plain Text!

I've got Apple Mail set up running two IMAP Email accounts (including .Mac), and two POP3 accounts. For quite some time now, Mail refuses to display ANY email message (no matter what email address receives the message) that has HTML/images in it. For example:
The Apple newsletters for Apple Computer, and the iTunes store that come out periodically, they never display with the images- it's always a boat load of hyperlinks, random text here and there and HTML all over the place. I've purchased e-tickets from United Airlines online and have been unable to print out my confirmation because the email comes through with just the HTML, some text and everything all over the place.
I operate heavily with my email and this is an issue that may get me to ditch Mail permanently if I can't get it to work properly. I am diligent about doing Apple Software Updates, I've gone through the Preferences of Mail time and again, I even erased my harddrive and did a complete system-rebuild just to see if this would fix the problem, and alas no such luck.
I'm not even getting the drop down bar that asks "Do you want to view images associated with this email?" And when I do get an email that I know has images in it and is in the form of HTML, the images aren't even located in attachments.
Does anyone have ANY ideas? I've tried deleting the com.apple.mail.plist file several times to no avail. Is there anything that I could be overlooking? I'd really hate to ditch Mail for Thunderbird or worse, Entourage.
Thanks in advance.

Or you could try this:
To make Plain Text the preferred alternative for viewing messages (which may or may not accomplish what you want), quit Mail, open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>:
defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool TRUE
You can revert to the default setting with the following command:
defaults delete com.apple.mail PreferPlainText
And you can reverse the setting regardless of what the default setting is with the following command:
defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool FALSE

Sender Mail Adapter able to retrieve HTML emails?

Hi there,
I stamped over an issue that look like an adapter limitation, would like to hear you opinions.
We´re using a POP3 account configured in a Sender Mail Communication Channel with XIPAYLOAD, with this attempts:
- with or without the Mail Package;
- any type of encoding;
- must keep attachments.
In all of this options always the retrieved email from the POP Server comes in TEXT format.
Does the Mail Adapter support HTML emails?
Does the Mail Adapter support mixed/alternative Content-Type?
>Current version: SAP PI 7.0 SP14
>Mail Server: Lotus Domino 7.0.x
Regards,
Marlo Simon.

Ok,
I´m using the Sender Mail Scenario.
I tried the MessageTransformBean (Transform.ContentType) to force the Content-type to text/html and it made no difference.
Is there any Advanced parameter that would help? No docummentation from SAP on those ones.
I want to keep the original email body, but looks like the adapter only read plain text.
Rgds,
Marlo Simon.

How to view source of email message without opening the message?

In addition to Verizon Email, I use Windows Live Mail. With Windows Live Mail I can view the source of a message without opening the message. This way I can find out if the message is legitimate or spam before potentially getting hit with malware from a bogus message by opening it. I can then set up a blocking rule so a bogus message from either the sender or the domain never appears in my Inbox. I have not found a way to do this in Verizon EMail.
Is there a way to view the source of a message without opening the message in Verizon EMail? Right clicking just opens the message which I do not want to do.

computerbug,
You can get a preview of your email. Log into the Verizon account and go to email > in the top you will see
Conversations
Contacts
Calendars
Settings
Click on settings < General settings > Display and you will see 2 options for email view.
(Preview is not available, if the resolution is less than 1024 by 768 pixels)

Mail will no longer display HTML email content

As of last week, Mail has decided to no longer accept HTML versions of emails. I've looked in the Preferences but there doesn't seem to be any way to select HTML over Text. I know I haven't changed anything, and I spent half an hour on the phone with my ISP: they claim it's not on their end. Any ideas?

E-mailing: How to sent out an email to the Managers OUTLOOK express account

Hi Experts,
System is ECC6.0.
I hv requirement that, the sales orders comes from EDI into SAP. If there is a error in material (like,
non-sellable, not existing etc.), I need to trap this issue/error.....................fine, I did it and working fine.
But, in next step, I need to send out an email to the manager to his/her OUTLOOOK express(NOT work flow account) email account"s inbox, with a standard specified format!!!!
I do NOT think, work flow is necessorily involved here in this scenario!!!
So, let me know that,
1) Is WORK FLOW involvment i there?
2) How to get it done that, sending out email to OUTLOOK express account with a standard format
3) Any FMs, piece of code
replies appreciated.

Hello
I can offer two proposals:
1) Standard report RSEIDOCA is used to actively monitor IDoc processing.
This report can be scheduled in background and reports failed IDocs. Unfortunately SAP did not offer e-mail notification together with this report which is really a shortcoming. However, I have written a modified version of this report which allows to send e-mails (see below).
2) Another scenario we are using is to replace wrong partners/materials with dummy partners or materials ensuring that the IDoc will be processed under all circumstances. In this case we set the Purchase order number supplement (sales order -> header -> tabstrip Order Data: field VBAK-BSTZD) = 'ERR'.
Using a condition (transaction VOFM ) we trigger an ORDRSP IDoc if a new sales order has BSTZD = 'ERR'. This IDoc is forwared to SAP-XI and translated into an e-mail to the customer service.
The crucial parts of my report ZRSEIDOCA are shown below (adjust selection screen and notification routine):

Mail: how to download ONLY last emails and not the whole hotmail.

Hi!
Quick question: like what Mail does in iPhones/iPads, how can I configure Mail in my iMac or Macbook Pro so that it only downloads the last, say 50 emails and not the 4000 aprox. emails I have inside the hotmail (now outlook) server?
I have been wanting to use mail for a long time but I can't seem to find that option. I only want to see the LAST EMAILS like what happens in the app on my iPhone.
Thanks.

unless there is a special setting in yahoo webmail interface that allows this (gmail pop has it for example), there is no way to do it. POP will download all available messages on the first download. that's how POP works. from there on it will only download new ones.

How to create graphic clickable email bugs in signature?

I would love to create clickable icons on the bottom of my work emails for Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.
What is the best way to go about this? Do I write the raw html code, including clickable areas and then drop it in the signature sub directory? Is there an easier way?

You can always take a screen shot of the video, add a play button (which really wouldn't be an actual play button) and link the image to your HTML page where the video is located.

Question: Junk Mail: How to extract groups of emails to add to blocked senders.

Hi Ernie
I need to find a way to extract lists of emails from Junk mail folder and add them en masse to blocked senders, without having to add them to my blocked senders one by one.
I have had the same email address for too long to change it, but I receive huge amounts of junk mail. I have so far barred nearly 2000 senders and have 1100 sitting in my junk folder form the last week. I barred them one by one, using RULES function...I simply cannot keep doing this.
I have MacBook Pro running Mavericks, plus iPad plus iPhone 5.
The problem is aggravated by the fact that Apple has a weakness in Mail: I may bar thousands of senders on my Mac, but the filter does not sync the barred addresses to my iPad or iPhone, so if I use Mail on either, I get many thousands of emails at once and have to mark them one by one to delete. It's ridiculous.
To solve this problem, I have decided to do is block all the senders in webmail.
However I still have the same problem with extracting multiple addresses from my junk mail folder in order to copy them into blocked senders list.
Genius Bar said it can't be done. I think they're wrong. There simply as to be (a) a location on my Mac where I can find a list of all those I have already barred; (b) a way to extract email addresses from groups of received mail.
I'd be grateful for some advice, please.
<Email Edited by Host>

Is there nobody ot there who has a solution to my problem, please?
