Mail message "Save as..." doesn't save attachments when "include attachments" is ticked

Mail message "Save As..." doesn't save attachments when "Include Attachments" is ticked for "Rich Text Format"
Messages are supposed to be saved as rtfx files (actually folders that include the attchments in seperate files)
It worked fine in 10.6
How do I submit a bug report? I have sent several request through the "Provide Mail Feedback" link since 10.7 - no joy.
Thanks

"Filter Mail Messages" in Automator doesn't filter out mails of today

Is it me, or does the Automator action "Filter Mail Messages" doesn't have an option to find messages that have not been sent or received today. It seems that there is no option to get rid of the messages sent or received today while filtering.
I mean there is no option for "Date received" -> "Not today"; and I seem to can not find any easy workaround for this.
i.e. What I'm trying to do is, filter the messages that are in a certain mailbox and are not sent or received in the last 7 days. However, the mails of today always show up.
I hope somebody had found a solution to this, it appears to be an obvious problem with the Automator, trying to work with the Mail App and many have probably run into this before.
Thanks!

Can't save drafts, doesn't save sent mail thru imap account

I learned what an imap account was when I signed up for my .Mac account. I like the idea of sent mail being saved on the server and shared to all my computers. It saves duplication of effort between the two of us working here. So, I've recently had my web guy switch my old POP account to an imap account. But there's problems.
Whenever I begin composing an email to be sent through my new imap account, I get a message that says, "This email cannot be saved." I can compose and send the email through that account, I just can't save it to my draft folder. When I hit the "Save as Draft" button, it seems to try to save. The "Save as Draft" button goes gray for a couple of seconds but, afterward, I can't find any trace of a saved draft. There's not even a Draft "mailbox" or subfolder under the main "Drafts" heading. Also, once the letter is sent, it doesn't show up in a sent mail folder, I suppose because, again, there isn't a sent mail subfolder for that account.
My web guy showed me how in his Thunderbird mail preferences he's asked to choose a folder in which his drafts and sent mail will be saved. I can't find a question like that in the Mac Mail preferences. Even if I were asked where I want the mails to be saved, those folders would have to be on the imap server for the contents to be shared between computers, right?
Two side notes, there is an inbox for this imap account, just no "Sent" or "Draft" folders and second, I'm on OS X 10.4.10, Mac Mail Version 2.1 (752/752.2).
Anyway, does anyone have any idea what's going on and how it can be fixed?
TIA,
Peter

Yes! Brilliant! When I followed the first half of your instruction (this account requires INBOX to be typed in Preferences, etc.) the imap server did indeed create the draft folder and when I sent the email it created a sent mail folder. Just what I wanted! Thank you. I'm so grateful!
OK, now a couple more questions based on things that seem to have started happening as a result of following the first instruction.
Now, instead of not saving drafts, it's saving two, three or four. Just as an experiment, I tried writing a letter to be sent through Mac.com. As I wrote the letter a draft appeared in the proper draft folder. When I changed the subject or added a recipient, that draft was amended to reflect my changes. In the new imap draft folder a new draft was added each time I made a change. They all went away once I sent the message so I see that as a small problem.
Second, since I saw the draft and sent mail folders appear, the inbox for that account is acting oddly. The little whirling icon that appears when incoming messages are being checked shows up as expected next to each box (subfolder). In the case of the account where the changes were made, the whirling icon freezes and does not display the number of new messages until I actually click on that subfolder. One other little issue that might be related; mail that appears in the new imap inbox doesn't always appear in the overall inbox (atop all the subfolder inboxes). If I click on that inbox subfolder, the mail will appear.
Third question/comment, the second half of your email suggested that if I succeeded in getting email to "save messages on the server, but maybe in a mailbox different from where you want them to be. To fix that, select the desired folder in Mail and choose the appropriate option from Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For. " Although it seems to be saving in the right folders I looked at the "Use this mailbox for" command and the choices are grayed out no matter which mailbox I choose, whether it's a subfolder mailbox, a main mailbox or a mailbox folder I've created. I don't care but I'm curious. Is that odd?
Thanks so much for your help so far! This is just great!!!

FCKEditor implemented in Apex - save button doesn't save!

Hi there,
I used the excellent notes on implementing FCKEditor into apex (see Re: textarea html editors and everything is working very well, however the FCKEditor Save button, whilst doing a submit is not saving the edited contents of the window.
I'm wondering whether the automatic DML process of the page is being bypassed because the request value passed by the page submit is not one of the ones that the process recognises?
Has anyone faced this problem, and figured out a solution?
I'm using FCKEditor 2.2 (http://www.fckeditor.net) with apex express version 2.1.0.00.39
Thanks in advance,
Mike Cretan

Hi,
Check the demo program SAPSCRIPT_DEMO_NOTE_EDITOR what ever you enter in the editor you get the text using method
call method note_editor->get_text_as_stream
importing text = notetab.

Apple Mail message read status doesn't change when read

In Apple Mail, when getting mail from an Exchange 2010 server on the corp LAN works great. However, on about 2 out of 10 messages, after I read the message it still has the "dot" showing it as unread and I have to manually select mark > as read. I even let it sit for a while thinking it has to sync but no luck. I still have to manually mark it. Very frustrating. Any ideas?

To clarify something else, the unread mail badge disappears off of the app in the tray as well as the inbox in the lefthand column. But the blue dot remains on the conversation thread.

Save Workspace doesn't save anything

I'm using CS3 and can't get Illustrator (or Photoshop for that matter) so save a workspace. I set up the program the way I want it, then save the workspace. However, when I recall the workspace, nothing is saved. It just loads the Illustrator default settings.
I've read this is an issue that hasn't been fixed officially. Seems rather an important setting for the program.
Does anyone have any tips to fix this situation? When I was using CS2, Illustrator wouldn't pre-load my default workspace either. But, at least when I manually loaded it, the program would load what I had set up.
Help!

I have no knowledge on this matter regarding AI 13 (CS3), but I can tell you the save workspace feature works fine for me in AI 12.
>When I was using CS2, Illustrator wouldn't pre-load my default workspace either.
That's not the way it works. When you recall a saved workspace, AI writes the settings to aiprefs when you quit the program. The new settings are loaded from aiprefs,
not your saved workspace, the next time you start up AI.
Recalling a saved workspace, therefore, is functionally equivalent to changing palette locations, etc., manually. Either way, Illustrator should start up the next time with the settings as they were when you last quit.
By any chance, do you shut down Windows without properly exiting Illustrator?

Mail message gets garbled... but only when sent with attachment to Android?

I'm getting heat from my employer because I use a Mac and he doesn't (I use an iPhone and he uses an Android, see the consistency??). Regardless. When I send an email with windows-friendly attachment, he receives it fine on his PC, but on his Android, the message is garbled (attachment fine). If I log in via Safari to DeskPilot (our corporate email client) and send the same message and attachment, all is fine. Oh, and if we really want to get odd, a co-worker does the same thing and his message comes though empty, not garbled.
Ideas, thoughts? This is causing a major migraine for me.
Thanks very much!

Perhaps I should have been a little bit clearer why I want to be able to send mail via my local mail/postfix system: I have several servers set up on my iMac, in particular:
    apache
    trac
I want these servers to be able to send mail to, e.g.,
    webmaster@localhost
    root@localhost
    trac@localhost
I have created aliases for these addresses in:
    /etc/postfix/aliases
(I have also executed "newaliases"). These aliases all point to my own user account on the same machine (my iMac).
Finally, I have a .forward file at the root level of my OS X account that forwards all local Unix mail to my normal e-mail account handled by my ISP.
This way, all local mail sent to "webmaster2, "root", "trac", etc., should be sent to my normal e-mail address that I monitor with Mail.app.
*This all worked perfectly with Mac OS X 10.4.x,* so I know it should be possible. However, I have only now just tried to set this up 10.5.x (Leopard) and, clearly, I am having problems.
Perhaps this motivation for wanting to send e-mail via the Unix mail system will help others understand my situation, and I hope someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks very much in advance.

Empty message body when including attachments

When we send an email which contains an attachment, the message body is empty at the recipients end. The attachment is OK though.
When the mail doesn't contain a attachment, the message body is OK. We are using the integrated Apple mail client.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Does the same occur when using Plain Text for message composition instead of RTF?
Some email clients (mainly Windows Outlook and Outlook Express depending on the version used by the recipient) do not read Mail's RTF properly.

How to include attachments with e-mail and to verify that they have been sent.

When I try to attach a document or photo to an e-mail and use "browse" to find the attachment, then click it. The only option is open. When I click that there is no evidence or indication that the attachment has been made. How can I attach photos or documents to e-mail messages? Then, how can I verify that the attachments have really been sent with the message?

* Outgoing (SMTP) server: you need to use your ISP (Internet Service Provider) SMTP server. Call your ISP to know your SMTP (mail sending) server. In case you are unable to get SMTP server, you can use WebMail for email sending.
For OUTGOING MAIL SERVER I am required to add the following:
HOST NAME
(usually looks like smtp.example.com - Since I have Comcast as my it would look like smtp.comcast.net)
USER NAME optional
PASSWORDptional
Since you use comcast, you have comcast e-mail. You need to ask them what the correct settings are to set up your comcast e-mail account on a mobile device and plug in the same information for the outgoing (SMTP) server for the account you're trying to set up.
Warning: I'll predict now that a lot of your e-mail will get filtered as spam on the receiving end because the domain name in your email address is NOT going to match the domain name of the server it's originating from.
You might want to look into a mail service provider that actually provides their own outgoing mail servers.

Why I cannot assess deleted Apple mail messages in time machine after installing mountain lion from snow leopard.

Ever since I installed Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, I cannot retrieve my deleted Apple mail messages from Time Machine. I could do it in the past using Snow Leopard. The effective date for the the non-retrival of deleted messages is the date I installed Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard. Any thoughts?

Keith Montreal wrote:
It was origionally a local folder for things like receipts from the Apple Store, etc
I'm still not sure what you mean . . . is it listed in the "On My Mac" section in Mail's sidebar, like these?
Mountain Lion appears to have given it an icon very much like an Archive box and put the "on My Mac" folder within that "Box" on both the back ups and the new Mail program - in fact it did it 6 times, which was the origional problem.
Can you post a screenshot?
I could restore inbox messages although they came in as a new mail box called Time Machine rather than into their origional mailboxes (there are 7 different addresses)
Yes, that's how Time Machine restores Mail messages, so it doesn't erase the current contents of an existing mailbox. You can then move them into the desired location.

When I select the Apple Symbols font from the list accessed from under Format/"Show fonts"/collection-all fonts/Apple Symbol, and then continue typing, I get normal letters, if in a slightly different font.
How can I type using the Apple Symbol font? I want to use that font to include keyboard and cursor selections of actual screen symbols to help write easily understood explicit computer lesson emails to my 92 year-old mom from a few hundred miles away.

Can somebody tell me why recently I am unable to delete e-mail messages on my I-Pod?

For some reason I am unable to delete certain e-mail messages in my hotmail account. Then when I delete other e-mail messages they re-appear when I check for my mail. Can anybody tell me why this is happening?

Try logging into the account on webmail and delete them their. Then try deletiong from the iPod.
Also try a reset, nothing is lost except hopefully the emails.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not. I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again. How can I fix this?

If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them. 800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly. Hope this helps.

I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. Some contacts have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel. A real Mac **** up !

Can you drag and drop the attachments visible in the email to the Desktop OK or does that fail ?
Re the sending: Are these recipients on Mac's or PC's as the file type could be an issue, if on Mac's then try setting the Mail Preferences Composing setting to Plain Text not Rich Text and see if that improves things.
