Mail Messages with no content

I've just starting experiencing problems in Apple Mail.
It's not every message that's affected, but I get emails that display in Mail with: 'This message has no content'.
I know that there is content, but I'm unable to see it.
These have been from people in my contact list and also junk messages, the type of messages are different too, some messages are part of a thread and some are one off emails.
I'm looking at my emails online through a browser and I haven't been able to get the same problem, although the emails that had 'no content' display error messages when I try to view them.
I wondered if anyone else has experienced simlar issues?

Is anyone else having a problem sending a mail message with PDF attached?

Is anyone else having a problem sending a mail message with PDF attached? I receive the following message:
Sending the message content to the server failed.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
Is there a fix for this?

Anyone? I was hoping my problem would just 'fix itself'... but I still have some clients telling me they're not receiving any email from me. I've since deleted that account on my computers and re-added it. But still having the same issue.

When I send e-mail messages with file by using a POP3 in Exchange 2010 I received delivered message with file. How I can disable this functions that file do not include to delivery message. I use Exchange 2010 only local users.

I think there is not native rule for this, but you could try a transport rule which removes all attachments over a very small file size like 1KB.

Why I can't send any e-mail messages with 6230i?

Hi mates,
I have a Nokia 6230i with a Vodafone Italian sim card in it.
I know for sure that I CAN retrieve messages form my incoming POP3 e-mail server but I can't send any e-mail messages with it.
Any time I try to do that it prompts me an information balloon saying: message failed. Why??
I mean, I properly set up my phone with all Vodafone details but it still does not seem to work.
Any help will be appreciate
Stefano.
P.S.
I can even send and receive MMS and of course SMS too
Solved!

thanks mate for your reply
When you say: "Make sure your SP allows sending e-mail"
Do you mean the provider who give me the mail service?
Because I know for sure that with MS Outlook express I can send and recive e-mail with it
Bye,
Stefano.

Display problems in Mail messages with image attachment

Issue: Seeing intermittent display problems in Mail messages with image attachments
Annoyance level: minor, but Apple techs need to pass it along
Details: Regardless of mail client sending to iPhone (Outlook, OWA, Yahoo, Gmail) there are intermittent and what appear to be random occurrances of the pic being half rendered and/or the pic never loading (followed by message saying it can't be retrieved from server). In some instances the picture then appears fully rendered without a problem. Note: Image sizes varied from 14KB to 450KB

Hi,
I'm not familiar with C#, but if possible try the following:
1. Removing all thead and tbody tags from the body of the message.
2. Changing all inline CSS to embedded CSS.
I've seen a user said the message stopped showing up after making the changes.
If the issue persists, please note, since Outlook 2007, Outlook opens the HTML Email and converts it to Microsoft Word format before displaying it to the user. What happens during this process is that many CSS attributes and HTML support is completely removed.
Some of the most notable absences are background-image, and padding and margin support. Hardly can we do much about this, so the message "If there are problems with how this email is displayed, click here to view it in a web browser" is actually
a good workaround when we face this problem.

Ios mail messages have no content on only one of my two email accounts

I have two email accounts set up on my business servers. I use Yosemite on my 2014 Macbook Pro and IOS 8.1.3 on my fairly recent Ipad and Iphone 5. I use the Apple Mail app to send and receive mail on my computer and IOS devices.
My IT person recently made some changes to one of the accounts. Previously email sent to one of my accounts (call it Account A) was forwarded through another account (call it Account B). He changed it so that email sent to account A goes directly to my inbox.
The problem is this: while I can send and receive email from both accounts on my computer, on my IOS devices, only account B is working properly. Email sent to Account A results in the subject line appearing but after a few seconds each email message sent to account A indicates that "This message has no content." I realize that this often happens with IOS using apple mail, but rather than this being periodic, it now happens with all email to account A. Logging out of Mail and restarting the device does not affect this.
So email to Account B works perfectly on my Macbook Pro and ios devices. New email to account A works perfectly on my Macbook Pro, but not on my IOS devices. Old email to Account A from before the change also appears normally in my inbox.
The account settings are correct. I even took it to a Genius Bar to review and they agreed the settings were right. They were stumped and said it has to be something the IT person did in setting up the account. But he says both accounts are set up identically. Apple support on the phone is stumped as well.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks for replying so quickly, but I saw that post earlier. I followed those instructions that were possible, but the instructions for disabling scanning of TB files and folders use menus that I don't have, and the menus I do have don't seem to let me exclude entire folders. In any case, simply disabling the extension eliminated the freeze problem short-term, and re-installing McAfee from scratch allowed me to enable the extension without freezing.
In any case, I'm not asking about the freezing problem -- that was already solved. I'm asking about how to get the extension to recognize two different email accounts.

Mail message with attachments

I use iMacs for work. I often send email messages with attachments using Mail. Often, when sending email messages to Windows users (they are out there still), they will reply that they cannot open "the second attachment." The message seems to "pick up" a second apparent attachment, which is generally just a few K in size, and is not part of the original message or attachment. Unfortunately, though, it tricks the recipient into thinking that there are two attachments and the second one is meaningful So then they respond and I have to assure them that the second attachment is irrelevant and can be ignored.
Any thoughts on how to fix this, so outgoing email messages will only present the intended attachment?

That's a great question. I do use a signature, but inasmuch as it is simply text pre-inserted in the email message, I would be surprised if the signature somehow became stripped out and converted to an attachment. Nonetheless, I will try deleting the signature to see if that makes any difference.

E-mail messages with text in the form of an attached file?

Some of the e-mails I send are being received without any text but with my original message in the form of an attachment together with any other attachments I have sent. This results in some people not opening my mails or at least not understanding why I'm sending the attachments. Is this a compatibility problem? Is there anything I can do about the fact that not everybody in the world has a Mac? I thought the system of Windows friendly messages avoided this problem. Look forward to hearing anyone's thoughts on the matter and especially finding a solution.
Best,
Ken

Perhaps the boolean expression isn't working because it needs to be all caps: YES instead of yes
In any case, a simple 1 or 0 works just fine for me without -bool:
The command to disable in-line attachments (all attachments appear as icons)
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing 1
To command to (re-)enable in-line attachments once disabled (all attachments appear as images or documents displayed in-line)
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing 0
Also, when composing a new message with an attachment, be certain that 'Send Windows-Friendly Attachments' is checkmarked at the bottom of the new message screen:

Sending and saving mail message with .msg extension

How can I save the mail message when sending with .msg extension , so that when user click on the saved message it will open in OutLook Express. ?

I already tried the one u suggest , MimeMessage has a method
writeTo(OutputStream) which can be used to save the message with .msg extension .... But the main problem arises when trying to open it in OutLook .....
It gives some error .... I think that it may be because of format .. .msg has binary format while MimeMessage is in another format ....
is there any way to convert MimeMessage to binary and then save it in .msg file .

Importing Mail Messages with .emix extensions

Inadvertently I copied all my 8,000 older email messages into a folder thinking
I could copy the old messages into a new folder into mail on my other Mac. When I try to copy these .emix messages, it will not allow me. When I try to IMPORT these messages from mail, I cannot highlight the mail box to import.
I am able to read these messages when I open each one up individually.
Does anybody have any idea's of how I can get the 1.5gb of email messages into my new computer. I do not have any of the older plist files from the host computers library. I only have the folder with 8,000 .emix mail messages.
Help!

Rob,
I only have the folder with 8,000 .emix mail messages
If you put those messages in an correctly named folder hierarchy, Mail should be able to import them fine:
→ Import.mbox
→→ Messages
→→→ 1.emlx
→→→ 2.emlx
→→→ …
→→→ ###.emlx
(the actual numbers don't matter - no need to renumber them from what you have)
You should then be able to point Mail's import function to the folder containing the folder "Import.mbox" and in the next step can select a mailbox called "Import"
(If this does not work, you can also move the "Import.mbox" hierarchy as described above into ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes and quit and restart Mail. You will then see a new local mailbox called "Import" which is initially empty. After selecting "Mailbox → Rebuild" from the menu you should see your messages appear)

Some mail messages not showing content after upgrade to Yosemite

I have just upgraded my system software to Yosemite and Have found that some of my mail messages are not displaying their content. I have closed and re-opened Mail and also taken all mailboxes offline and back online but the problem still persists.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Hi Illaass,
I've already rebuilt the mailbox several times. I have run disk utility, started my masc in 'safe mode', reset the PRAM and finally re-installed Yosemite again. This didn't solve the problem. I started my mac in 'safe mode' one more time today and than restarted my mac and the problem appears to have been sorted. However, I'm not sure if the problem will re-occur if I shut down my mac tonight and restart in the morning1

I'm currently facing an issue related to message payload which is itself a XML fragment.
Use case: The business requires some error out record to notify to the Business users as an XML payload in the mail message body whichis generated in the process flow.

Any useful thoughts is welcome.

Which version are you using? I also had problems with XML as the payload with 9i Rel. 1. I upgraded to Rel. 2 and it works o.k.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access web mail, you need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

How do I delete messages on my iPhone? Even though I drag the messages to Trash, 'message' with no content still shows up on list.

Even though I drag email message to Trash to delete them, 'message' (s) with no content still shows up on my email In box. How do I get rid of these??
Thanks in advance!

Drag email messages on an iPhone? I don't think so...
Try to Reset your device: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off option that shows up first).
