Incoming email message area blank

On my leopard machine I have one person who sends me email regularly and the message area of the email is blank even tho I know she has sent a message. If I forward that email to myself and download it on my laptop with OSX 10.4.11, the message shows up in the email just fine. She has sent me messages at all of my addresses with the same result. They are all blank on the Leopard machine and show up on the tiger machine. She has changed her font , it's size and it's color and we still have the same result. She is sending from a pc on an AOL account. However, I have other people who send me email from AOL accounts on pc's and I can see them with now problem.
Does anyone have any idea what might be preventing her messages from showing up on Leopard mail?
Thanks

Thank you for your suggestion. The page on blank email was informative but unfortunately doesn't apply in my case. The email I get from just one person that is blank on my Mac running Leopard is NOT blank when viewed on my mac running Tiger. The text is in the message but is not visible on the Leopard mail program.
But I do appreciate your link.

Since 10.5.6 upgrade, email messages are garbled text

Hi,
This problem seems to have started with the latest upgrade. My email messages are coming in with garbled text. This happens in my Yahoo account where I will go to the mail website and the text there will be fine. It's only in the mail program.
Thanks in advance,
Pete.

Hi,
I have the same issue.
Although the mails seems to have been downloaded correctly parts of the parts of the message mime information is displayed as part of the mail body.
The only thing that helps is to rebuild the index of the specific mailbox (inbox in my case).
BTW: Mail of iPhone OS does NOT have this problem. Generally it handles mails MUCH better than the real OS X. Strange, isn't it.

After downloading IOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5, my email messages are not automatically coming through. I have to open my mailbox and wait for messages to download. Do I need to reset or change settings for mail? Please help.

After downloading IOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5, my email messages are not coming through automatically. Before, my email messages would come through automatically and my iPhone would alert me each time an emial message was recevied. I now have to open my mail in-box and wait for my email messages to download. Do I need to reset or change my mail settings? This issue is delaying my abiliy to receive and respond to email messages in a timely manner.
Please Help.

Hi Chris. Thanks, for the suggestions re: my email issues. They were helpful and yes I did check all items you referenced. I even contacted Apple support and spent about 40 minutes on phone checking all settings. However, after all these efforts, my mail and calendar issues were not resolved. Apple Support finally recommended deleting the mail account and then reloading it - and it worked! I am now receiving my emails and calendar appts. in real time again.
Just wanted to share this in case anyone elest has a similar problem with mail/calendar after downloaing i.O.S. 8.1 onto iPhone 5.
Thanks, again.

Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device

Hi
I just got this message yesterday: Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device.
And since then, i havent being able to set up more than one email and i subscribed for 4.
I have rebooted\,, sent service books and hard set the phone so many times.
What should i do?
Thank you

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
From your post, I cannot quite tell if you did all of this, in exactly this way. Hence, with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

Hi, I had this same problem. I have a load of work subfolders and was showing the message header but no content. I think it lost the link to the original messages.
There may be a simpler way but I fixed it by going to the mail folders in finder. I took the following steps:
Go to user library (hold down the alt key whilst clicking the Go menu in finder to access user library)
Go to user/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes. You should be able to see your mailboxes and your original messages (ending .emlx) after clicking down the hierachy in each mailbox. For some reason mail added a "-2" onto the end of each mailbox which I think has caused the problem.
Copy each required mailbox (.mbox) onto desktop. I removed the "-2" at this stage to clean things up.
In Mail, choose File/Import Mailboxes....
Import data from: Apple Mail. Click continue, navigate to desktop and choose the relevant .mbox folders. Click Choose.
It should then import the mail to a new folder called import in mail. You can then rename that folder or move the subfolders out.
I moved the .mbox folders on my desktop to my documents folder as a backup just in case. I then deleted the problem mailboxes from the finders mailboxes folder.
Problem solved - for me anyway!!
Hope this helps.

Is there a way to have incoming email messages automatically colored by priority?

I am trying to find a means for incoming email messages to automatically be displayed in a color I can link to its priority (set by sender). I don't need it to be filed into a subfolder; just want to make highest or high priority messages more visible in my email inbox. I already know how to manually assign a color to messages. Thanks.

The only suggestion I can make is to designate some tags of suitable colours, and use '''Tools|Message Filters''' to set the tags.
Myself, I rarely see any messages with explicit priority flags, but I think you'll see an entry similar to this:
X-Priority: 1 (Highest)
in the header.
Go to '''Tools|Message Filters''' and create a new filter. '''Priority''' is offered as a standard filter term; if this doesn't do the job, you can go down to the end of the list of filter criteria and make a new one, under '''Customize'''.
The action of the filter, when triggered, should, of course, be to apply a suitable tag, which would result in the message being coloured. Repeat for each level of urgency you care to identify. Place your tagging filters at the top of your list of filters so the tagging will take place before any other filtering.

Email Expressions are Blank in Sub-workflow Created for MDG

Hello Workflow Experts,
I just posted a question in the Master Data Governance discussion area but it is more workflow related than MDG so posting the link here in hopes that someone can help me out.
In summary, I am trying to create a sub-workflow thats sends an email to the creator of a MDG change request, once the change request is approved.
I am having difficulties in two areas. I am new to SWDD workflows so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Two issues:
The expressions I am using to display the Change Request Number and the Change Request Description are not returning values to my email – they are blank.
I want to send the email to the person that created the MDG Change Request but I can’t figure out how to determine the creator (i.e., CR Requestor) of the MDG Change Request and ultimately, their email address. Right now I am testing using my own email address in the workflow Send Mail step.
Here is the full detail of my question, with lots of screen shots, over in the MDG discussion group: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3513244
Sincere thanks,
Rob Scofield

Hi Rob
Yes, you can use CR_CREATOR_NAME...as shown in the screen shot, however make sure it is prefixed by 'US' (that is user) else mail step will go in error:
Also ensure that user has SU01 setup correctly:
Then the system will send the mail :
And will show in SOST (if SO16 settings are done in the system)
I would suggest:
1) Creat a WF container element, say CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US, of type SWHACTOR (which is of type OTYPE+OBJID)
2) Assign CR_CREATOR_NAME to CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US-OBJID
3) Assign 'US' to CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US-OTYPE
4) Use CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US in the mail step as shown above
regards,
Modak

Blank incoming email messages - only in Mail

There's some email lists that I subscribe to, with automated earthquake and volcano information, and recently the emails are blank, when I view them using Mac Mail. However, if I check my email with a browser, I can see the content of the message. If I look at these emails in Mail with the Raw Source, they are still blank. Does anybody know what is up? Someone thought perhaps a newer version of Mail is pickier about html. I've not found anyone else with the same problem in my office, and I don't see a mention of it on the discussion boards.
Cheers, Peter

First off, view the Long Header details (from Mail, choose View > Message > Long Headers; from MobileMe Mail, the gearbox button (list of actions) > Preferences > Viewing > Enable "Show Long Headers"). This exposes a whole lot of heretofore invisible data.
Making sense of it is another issue, but I think I may have found something (from a Mac user, to boot) that seems to hit the nail right on the head.
Robert Vaessen has a very extensive, scholarly post, dated January of this year, about this very issue on his site at <http://www.robsworld.org/blankemail.html>. The post is detailed, technical, and certainly worth reading for anyone who is concerned enough to have sought out this discussion thread. But to cut to the chase, here is his conclusion:
+"It is my opinion, (based upon more than ten years worth of fighting spam, ten years of running web sites, and extensive research) that these blank emails (in my experience), and millions like them are part of a growing spam problem. These blank email messages represent part of a spammers whitelisting effort. Responses which generate bounce messages permit the spammer to refine his/her recipient list, while the ones that get delivered are marked as valid addressees. These lists are then used by the spammer in his/her own campaign, sold to other spammers, or both."+
He recommends (and provides some how to's for) reporting the emails back up the food chain as the best thing we can do to help cauterize the bleeding. What I'm wondering now is if we can somehow (SpamSieve, maybe?) set our Macs to bounce anything from the offending servers, so that our address becomes 'dead' to them.
I'm also pursuing this with MobileMe support—it seems that everything to do with MobileMe is now being handled outside of AppleCare, and the only path is online chatting with them. I'm also curious as to why my MobileMe account seems to be the only place these are surfacing; i.e., are my other accounts' servers already bouncing such messages, or am I just not seeing them? If I get anything helpful from MobileMe, I'll post it here.

Email messages are not being downloaded on Iphone

Please help! Re iPhone, email messages, I had to change my PW on Yahoo.com, "Other", my email messages cannot
be downloaded. I receive "this message has not been downloaded from the server". Outgoing mail server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com,
SSL ON; Incoming mail server: imap.mail.yahoo.com, server port 465.

While Yahoo has had their problems when it comes to their mail, I suggest removing the account from the phone, reset the phone, add the account back on and see if that works.

Email messages are jumbled out of chronological ordr

When looking at my current new email messages on the email list, as I open one and go back to the original list...I cannot easily find the one that I just looked at because it has been placed way down in the abyss of old emails. All messages are out of chronological order. Help fix this. I have put up with this for 2 months. I only have comcast email account, not the tv service of. AC

Take a look at this thread I just posted in-------------------

All email messages are marked as read with imap account automatically.

I have a imap account pointing to an exchange 2007 server. The messages are being marked as read automatically. I removed any settings on a computer accessing the same account with outlook, that might be causing this.

Let me clarify what I said across all the responses in this topic. If you are operating a PC with say Outlook Express or Windows Mail, and a Mac with Mail, and furthermore if both are able to download a message from a POP server, and on both computers it is marked as Unread, then reading the message on one of the computers will not cause it to then be marked as Read on the other, operating in POP.
But if the server makes the assumption that the first computer to download a message from it means that it is also then Read, then of course taking away one of the computers will alter things. This is what I said in:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10506769#10506769
If you can disprove this, then lay out your facts in detail, but don't mix looking at the server with Firefox on one computer, and Mail on still another. Firefox is not an email client, but a browser. Using Thunderbird on the PC, and Mail on the Mac would be an equivalent test.

My Safari/Email/Messages are jumpy

I just removed some malware from my iMac (mid 2010; 3.2 GHz Intel i3; 12GB; OS X 10.9.4 w/ Safari 7.0.6) restarted the computer, emptied the trash. Now my Safari, Email, Message, Finder, Calendar, & Notes screens are jumpy and not loading in the smooth way they usually do. Could I have inadvertently deleted something that makes them run smoothly? My Google Chrome browser is not jumpy like that. iTunes, Evernote, Omnifocus are not jumpy.
*Also just noticed that my Maps will not load a map.
Anyone have any ideas??

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
