J2ME email clients (POP3, SMTP + sending attachments)?

Hello,
Maybe this topic was already discussed once before in this form, but after having a quick look into it I wasn't able to find proper answer for following topic.
Well, I'm looking for a J2ME email client (open source prefered) which is capable to send *emails with Attachments (csv data or pictures).*
Mail4Me seems to be a candidate referring the feature set and mem consumption, but I'm not quite sure, if
sending attachments is supported....
Maybe somebody in that community can help me or at least can highlight any other packages.
Many thanks in advace!

Hello Mike,
the first thing I thought of was the conversion rules in SCOT and I don't know of any other option (customizing) that could affect the way it works.
I have solved a similar problem in SCOT w/workflow which went like this:
- The (old) RSWUWFML-report attaches the persistent object reference to the workitem (as the old-style-SAP-Shortcut-Format) that enables the user to execute this workitem from the mail.
- When we installed the new SAP Gui it didn't worked anymore (because shortcut format .SAP changed).
- I have implemented in SCOT a conversion-exit that transformed the attachment into a .SAP-Shortcut that called a self-made-transaction to execute this workitem.
So, if no one else has any good idea of what to do about, I would propose to use a conversion exit in the SCOT. This scans for a FOL...object reference, uses some kind of function module to retrieve the content as text and then outputs a .txt-Attachment. This should work (but is more effort, as well).
Best wishes,
Florin

Thunderbird doesn't work as default email client when sharing pdf attachments. Works fine if Mail is the default client

With Tbird set as the default email client, whenever I try to email the pdf, a message pops up that the default client can't handle sending the attachment. It works all the time if the native Mac Mail software is the default client..
This forces me to save the pdf file, go to Tbird to send a message and then have to find the file in the folder structure to add as an attachment.

My PDF software is Adobe Acrobat. So what is wrong with your Thunderbird software I must ask!

Nokia 5310 - Email client and SMTP-AUTH

Dear Everybody,
Afore I buy the 5310 would someone tell me whether the Email client supports,
i) SMTP-AUTH
ii) SMTP-AUTH over SSL
iii) IMAP over SSL
iv) Allows the import of Self-Signed SSL certificates.
Regards, Neocron

I went to the google link (thank you for posting that), but I thought it was an IMAP not POP. I don't really know the difference, but the link to get your e-mail settings said the incoming was imap.gmail.com. I'm so confused

Email Client - POP3 Counting Incoming Email

I have no email stored on the N900. At the end of every day I delete everything from the inbox. I noticed something yesterday when I went to delete messages... An option that says "Show More" with numbers. I attached a print screen of it. I have no idea what that is.
When I am inside the inbox and hit "Folder Details" it says there are over 300 emails... but there are no emails. I appears to be "counting" my incoming email. How do I delete this ongoing count as there is nothing in my inbox because I delete mail each night. I have attached a print screen of this as well...
This only happens with POP3 accounts - all my POP3 accounts. The IMAP accounts are not doing this...
Hoping somebody knows how to "clear" this information...
Thanks,
Sandy

when you set up your pop3 email, in the advanced tab befreo you "finish" you will see
Account title:
"leave messages on the server" (by checking this, you can delete the messages on your devcie and thought they will not be re-downloaded to your device, will still show up as what is available on the server)
if you click more, my guess (becuase i use all imap email for syncage) is thatt it will redownload what you ahve already deleted off your device, but still leave the original email on your server.

Email client does not send email (gmail account)

I configured the email account correctly and can see inbox emails. The problem occurs when sending out emails. It keeps trying without giving any error so I have to kill the app to use the client again.
I have a double secured gmail account but I created a unique signin password for this client

Hi Gabriele Vidali,
I used the double-secured feature on my Gmail account and then created a unique password for the Mail app in my Firefox OS device with Flame v2.0.
I was able to send and receive emails from my double-secure Gmail account with no problems. I didn't receive any errors when sending the email, and the automatic sync worked correctly.
Where did you download version 2.1 from?
I would suggest rolling back your Flame device to at least version 2.0. The version that you are currently using is still very unstable, and it's still actively being worked on, so it's not uncommon that features and apps will break.
Version 2.1 is scheduled to be Feature Complete on October 13th, and then there will still be stabilization and optimization work done on it. Mozilla's code on version 2.1 of Firefox OS is scheduled to be Code Complete on November 21, 2014 - so there's still a lot of work to be done on that version. =)
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you are still having issues sending and syncing your emails on more stable versions of Firefox OS.
Thanks,

Hi Scot,
Providing some information on Poison Queue:
The poison message queue is a special queue that's used to isolate messages that are determined to be harmful to the Exchange system after a transport server or service failure.
The messages may be genuinely harmful in their content and format.
Alternatively, they may be the results of a poorly written agent that has caused the Exchange server to fail when it processed the supposedly bad messages.
The poison message queue is typically empty. If the poison message queue contains no messages it doesn't appear in Queue Viewer or
Get-Queue results. The messages in the poison message queue are never automatically resumed or expired. Messages remain in the poison message queue until they're manually resumed or removed by an administrator.
According to the description above, I suspect Outlook 2007 changed the email's format when send email with attachment. The reason as below:
If the original email's (with attachment) content or format is harmful to the Exchange 2007 server, it will go to the Poison Queue when sending via OWA. However it didn't, sending via OWA is perfect. So I suspect it is an issue on the Outlook 2007
client side.
Please using Pipeline Tracing to verify whether there is something changed during transmission.
More details in the following article:
Using Pipeline Tracing to Diagnose Transport Agent Problems
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125198(v=exchg.80).aspx
If it is convenient, I suggest doing following tests to narrow down this issue:
Note: Same content, same attachment, same format.
1. Please using Outlook 2010/2013 or others' Outlook clients for testing.
2. Please change to another format for testing. More details in the following article:
Change the message format to HTML, Rich Text, or plain text

SMTP send error

I tried to send email to
[email protected]
using SMTP Send File vi
and then I got an error 2100 saying
"500 Syntax error, command "MIME-Version: 1.0" unrecognized"
How can I send email to address like
[email protected]?
Thanks.

I think your issue is the connection to the SMTP server. First off, the smtp server for gmail (according to gmail help) is smtp.gmail.com, not smtp.google.com. Secondly, the port for the gmail smtp server is 465, while the SMTP vi's by default open port 25. Theoretically, you could edit the VI that opens a TCP port, but you would have to resave most of the smtp hierarchy to avoid changing the version saved in vi.lib. Finally and most importantly, the gmail smtp server requires SSL encryption, which I have no idea how to start implementing.
So how do you send mail in LabVIEW?
I have had luck communicating with the internal servers set up by our IT dept because they apparently have no authenication or encryption methods to navigate. In the non-corporate setting, I have also had luck using a free SMTP server. When using this server, simply type "localhost" for the SMTP server. Finally, you could take a look at the ActiveX option this post explores.
Hope this helps.

HT5361 Mac OS X Mail 4.6 sends emails that other email clients don't recognize as attachments, but as embedded pictures. Mail 6.6 does not have this problem.

My Mac OS X (with 10.6.8 software) Mail 4.6 sends emails that other email clients don’t recognize as attachments, but as embedded pictures. When I receive emails from others, I do not see whole image either. I did change "rich text" to "plain text" in message format - no results.
My daughter has Mac (10.8.5) with Mail 6.6, which does not have this problem. Can I install 6.6 instead of 4.6 or do you know other fix?
Help, please?
Thanks,
Andrew

I've been having the same problem now for several months (at least 3-4 if not more). And the frequency of Mail quitting is increasing, several times in a few hours. And as with you, no particular message pops up before hand or not even the beach-ball spinning first and then quitting.
I too have been sending Apple the crash reports. However, I have not contacted Apple Support yet. Hoping to find the answer in this forum, but again, no luck.
If you have found a solution since then, please advise. Or if anyone else out there knows of this issue and can help, that would be greatly appreciated.

Sending attachments with emails in Javamail

I'm trying to send attachments with emails using Javamail. Following is the code through which I'm trying to achieve that. It works as expected on a JRE1.6 environment. But on JRE1.5, the content of the file gets added to the mail body as text.I want the file to be sent as an attachment.
Any pointers on the observed difference in behavior would be highly appreciated!
String msgText = mailInfo.getMessage();
        String attachmentFileName = mailInfo.getFileName();
        MimeBodyPart mimeBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
        mimeBodyPart.setText(msgText);
        // create the second message part
        MimeBodyPart attachmentBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
        // attach the file to the message
        FileDataSource fileDataSource = new FileDataSource(attachmentFileName);
        attachmentBodyPart.setFileName(fileDataSource.getName());
        attachmentBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fileDataSource));
        // create the Multipart and add its parts to it
        Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
        multipart.addBodyPart(mimeBodyPart);
        multipart.addBodyPart(attachmentBodyPart);
        message.setContent(multipart);The email in case of JRE1.5 is as follows

Cannot send emails - connection to SMTP server timeout

I cannot send emails from my Thunderbird. Every time I try, an error message shows up saying that the connection to SMTP server has timed out:
"Sending of message failed.
The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server smtp.lineone.net timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator."
I have looked at many different possible solutions and tried them, but nothing seems to be working. I have tried several different ports, failed to send in Safe Mode with Networking and Thunderbird safe mode without add-ons and tried many different settings. I have ensured that the my settings on Thunderbird match the settings that my ISP recommends. My anti-virus software is not affecting it either. Maybe there is something I am missing but I would really appreciate any suggestions!
Here is some general info:
Mail provider: lineone
ISP: BT
Anti-virus software: AVG
OS: Windows Vista
Thunderbird version: 31.5.0

Hello @shredo,
Firstly, I would suggest reading this support article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-send-messages
If that doesn't help, try some of these things (not sorted in any particular order):
*Test your connection in another network. There might just be some blocked ports in your router or conflict of some sort.
* Test your smtp settings in another email client (to ensure that they actually work). If it doesn't work, there might be some missmatch with the settings (even though you have ensured that they match), or some restriction by your router or something.
* Apparently, compacting your thunderbird folders might help with this issue (something to do with too many "deleted", that are still there) - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_Tips_:_Compacting_Folders
I hope this helps.

How can one send email-sized photo files as attachments in Mail, without the photos appearing within the email?s

How can one send email-sized photo files as attachments in Apple Mail, without the photos appearing in the body of the email? If it can be done, it's not at all obvious, at least not to me. Thanks for any help you can provide.

The "View as icon" option shrinks the photo to an icon in the sender's Apple Mail, but how it appears to the recipient varies dependingy on what e-mail client he/she uses.
Using Apple Mail 5.0 (the Lion version) at both ends, the sender can use the "View as icon" option to shrink his view of the photo to an icon, but the recipient also using Apple Mail 5.0 still sees the full photo in line with the message text. The recipient can then use the "View as icon" option to shrink it to an icon, but I don't think that's not what jackofarabia is looking for.
As far as I know there is no way in the current Apple Mail to do what jackofarabia wants. There should be, but there isn't.

RE: SMTP Email Client

Not long time ago I was trying to send an email from within Forte using
SMTP. And believe it or not it works just fine.
From what I can tell, Keith, you know the steps to send it, but missingfew concepts in how the SMTP works. It is simple, but not that simple.
So you know how to create outbound connection (using
ExternalConnection):
myConnection.Open ( rcptMailServer.com, 25, NIL,
CM_ADDR_INTERNET_NAME );
Once you have that reference you would send a 'HELO' string and wait for
response, the trick here is to use memoryBuffer to do that, as probably
you knew that:
pTextToSend = pTextToSend.concat('\n'); -- be sure to always add
new line character
-- send string to the mail server
aBuffer.Open( SP_AM_READ_WRITE, TRUE );
aBuffer.WriteText( pTextToSend );
length = pTextToSend.actualSize;
aConnection.Write( aBuffer, length );
aBuffer.Close();
-- receive response from the mail server
aBuffer.Open( SP_AM_READ_WRITE, TRUE );
length = cBufferSize;
while TRUE do
aConnection.Read ( aBuffer, length );
aBuffer.ReadText( lTempText );
lReceivedText.concat( lTempText );
if length < cBufferSize then
exit;
end if;
end while;
aBuffer.Close();
NOTE: for the first 'HELO' write you need to read the response twice! -
it will not work promptly otherwise.
Then using same technique (and code for send/receive) send the following
(in that order!):
send('MAIL FROM: <[email protected]>');
receiveResponse();
send('RCPT TO: <friend@rcptMailServer>');
receiveResponse();
send( 'DATA' );
receiveResponse();
send( myMsgString );
where myMsgString is something like:
myMsgString : TextData = new();
myMsgString .concat('From:
').concat(pFromAddr).concat('\n');
myMsgString .concat('To:
').concat(pToAddr).concat('\n');
myMsgString .concat('Cc:
').concat(pCcAddr).concat('\n');
myMsgString .concat('Subject:
').concat(pSubject).concat('\n\n'); -- that is here for purpose
myMsgString .concat(pMsg).concat('\n').concat('.'); --
the DOT is here for purpose too!
receiveResponse();
send( 'QUIT' );
receiveResponse();
and finally
aConnection.Close();
Well, I do not think there is anythink left, is there? (well there is
multiple address, files attachment, etc, but I will not go into that).
So, good luck, hope it helps!

CompleteMessage = CompleteMessage.concat('This Is my test

The SMTP commands seem to be correct.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

A problem with whitelisting is that spammers often use your domain or an address as the from address.
Another method (out of 100s of methods) is to use an alternate smtp port for mail submission and have content filtering on that port disabled. An example, added to master.cf is:
587 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o smtpdclientrestrictions=
-o smtpdrecipient_restrictions=permit_saslauthenticated,reject
-o content_filter=
The above removes all client and recip restrictions, only allows sasl_auth users and bypasses the content filter. You could modify other main.cf features specifically for this port and it's users, for example you could specific a larger mailboxsizelimit or require TLS, etc.
The downside to this... you have no virus checking of outbound mail submitted by your users, the upside is less resource consumption checking every outbound (or local) message submitted and more control over the features of the submission port.

How to make email client account setup automatically select inbound mail and smtp server.

I have the mail service successfully running on OS X Server 10.8.2. I am able to send and receive email as well as setup email accounts on various email clients (iphone, ipad, mac, etc). I notice that when I set up a new account that I have to specify both the inbound and smtp mail servers as well as specifying the user id for each. I am using an SSL certificate that appears to be working. The ports are selected (993/995 and 587) automatically and the default is to use SSL.
However, when I set up a Comcast account - (configured as "other") - I only have to enter Full name, email address and password - and from this it is able to determine that the incoming mail server is "mail.comcast.net" and outgoing smtp server is "smtp.comcast.net". It also fills in the userid and password for both inbound and smtp servers - as well as the ports. I have been trying to get this to work automatically when setting up accounts for my mail server - but have not been able to figure out how to do this - or if it is possible.
In googling - I have found that I can set up several different SRV records such as (_submission._tcp, _imap._tcp, _imaps._tcp, _pop3._tcp, _pop3s._tcp) and these are supposed to provide this functionality to email clients that are able to use the SRV records. I have set these up externally at my registered domain provider - and I am able to query them via nslookup, dig and host.
Is Comcast using some other special method of providing the server names to the mail client setup - or am I doing something wrong - or is this a functionality that needs to be supported on the mail server side as well. I am relatively new to mail servers and trying to work my way through the learning process.

Understand the functionality you are wanting, basically one can use Outlook / Exchange mail server as an example. It just happens.
As I understand in the background the DNS _SRV records point to a machine which serves up an XML file and that is the information which tells the client how to configure itself.
I did some research before posting my first reply and found that, in the Apple client situation, even when someone setup the the SRV records + the XML it didn't work seamlessly.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12949449#12949449
Here's some other links that give some more background.
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/macenterprise/qIKUMxMae8o/iLnIkMgeOX0J
http://www.virtuworks.com/how-to-setup-outlook-autodiscovery-for-your-domain/
If you were going to persue it you will need to find out the format for the autodiscovery XML file. Also the XML file will have to be hosted on your server, you couldn't likely put it on the public DNS server.

Sudden change in Verizon SMTP protocol breaks email clients

On Friday 8/1/2014 between 10:23 am and 3:12pm EST Verizon's SMTP servers changed from sending the following lines:
250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN
250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN
to these:
250-AUTH DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5
250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN
These two lines are inconsistent and are breaking my MDaemon email client, which now thinks it can authenticate using
CRAM-MD5 encoding. This encoding doesn't appear to be supported by Verizon, since I get the following error:
500 5.7.0 Unknown AUTH error -1 (Internal authentication error).
I've had no luck using telephone support. Hopefully someone at Verizon will see this and respond.

Important Notice: If your MDaemon users authenticate against an Active Directory, you must disable ... honor APOP & CRAM-MD5 under Setup > Default Domain / Servers > Default Domain & Servers > Servers in your MDaemon Server. Otherwise users will not be able to log on to MailStore Server.
looks like the setting will be in that section.

Can't send email on iphone - smtp error

I can retrieve email without issue on my iPhone and computer. I sync'd the iPhone via iTunes so I have not physically typed info into my iPhone - settings are identical to my computer Mail settings. When sending emails I get the message: "Cannot Send Mail. The connection to the outgoing server 'smtp.comcast.net' failed. Any suggestions?

Actually you don't want identical settings on the iPhone, which Apple warns against in the manual.
Do you have a section or page number in the manual where it indicates this because I don't recall seeing it or I missed it.
The option to sync email account settings via the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes syncs or transfers the same account settings from your computer to the iPhone. This can work depending on the IPS used for connecting to the internet but it is usually the ISP being used for the internet connection that has the restrictions on using an SMTP server that is outside of their network.
Apparently Comcast is the OP's ISP so if the OP has a wireless network at home using Comcast for the internet connection and is able to send messages with the computer's email client but not with the iPhone using the same settings when connected to the internet with Comcast, something may have gone wrong with account settings transfer to the iPhone which is why deleting and manually creating the account on the iPhone is the next step to take if this is the situation.
I use the identical SMTP server settings with my .Mac account, my business POP account and my Gmail IMAP account but each has its own SMTP server which is authenticated. Many ISPs will allow the use of an SMTP server that is outside of their network as long as the SMTP server is authenticated. Some block using Port 25 for an SMTP server that is outside of their network regardless if the SMTP server is authenticated or not and in that case, using 587 for the Server Port using works.

J2ME email clients (POP3, SMTP + sending attachments)?
