Mail not showing attachments in my Sent Mail list

I have the paperclip icon in my menu bar so I can easily see emails with attachments but in Lion they are not showing at all. Old mails BEFORE I upgraded to Lion show attachments. Has anyone sorted this issue?

Have found a solution that works: see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3308790?start=0&tstart=0

Re: Upgraded to Lion and now Mail does not show attachments in the Send Box (for new messages only).

OK, I have no idea why, but the following worked.
I created a rule in the Preferences pane:
CONDITIONS
     sender is me
     attachment contains "." (every file does)
RULE
     set color to (anything)
The rule worked.
Furthermore, the paperclips appeared!!!

  • Mail not showing attachments

    This problem seems to be documented here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1526523?start=0&tstart=0
    but not resolved.
    In Mail 4.5, I randomly fail to get attachments from senders.  Today I had it happen again multiple times from a sender; no attachment but a flag at the bottom of the mail about "missing plug-in."
    Headers show this:
    X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthAs: Internal
    X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthMechanism: 04
    X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthSource: MSPMAILHUB2.int.capella.lan

    command-Y and the "Quick Look" button both gave a glimpse of an .xlsx file but no file could be seen attached to the message.

    Hello aehrenr:
    I got here by destiny. After many days looking for a problem in Mail I just found the solution.
    My Mail program started developing the following problem progresively. All attachements stop showing as they usually do. In the case of a jpeg picture, I could see the image. In case of a folder, I could see the folder. This is the default way, I believe and the one I've always used since I moved to Mac.
    This happenned in all trays or boxes. Very annoying. Besides, many recipients had problems too seeing my attachments. I had to explain they were in the mail but hidden somehow. They had to llok for them.
    Luckily I found this thread. I typed in terminal as you said. Instantly all my attachements became visual again.
    It seems you suggested this solution for other kind pf problem but it solved mine.
    My system is an 27" iMac running 10.6.8 and Mail 4.6
    Thanks you so much for this.

  • Mail not showing attachments icon after 10.5.3

    Another trouble for Mail and attachements : in the list pane, although I have set the column to see if there are attached files (paperclip icon), since 10.5.3, these attachments don't show up in every case.
    Quite strange, a message with 5 attached picts didn't show any icon, but another message from the same user with 23 attached picts did show the paperclip icon.
    Anyone reporting the same trouble ?

    I have a similar issue - but with a twist. My list of emails shows that a received email has an attachment (the paperclip icon in the attachments column) but there is no attachment. There is no save option or Quick Look option under the header. Why would the list indicate an attachment exists where none exists?

  • SMTP sent mail not showing up in sent mail folder

    Hello,
    Setup:
    Exchange 2010 SP1
    Outlook 2010
    C# for sending mail, or Pentaho Kettle
    Not really sure how to explain, but I have the following scenario:
    Automatic programs send email using credentials (an active username / password on the domain. account linked to a mail box).
    Mail gets sent.
    Mail does not show up in the sent mail folder of the account
    I was wondering if there was a parameter on the Exchange server to configure so that the email sent via SMTP would show up in the sent mail box of the account.
    Regards,

    Hi Olivier,

  • Why does mail sent using the MacOSX mail client not show up in my sent folder when I access my Gmail account in a browser?

    I've recently started using my first Mac, and I hooked my work email (Forwarded to Google Mail) and my personal email (Gmail) into the MacOSX mail client. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, until I noticed that sent mail from my work email through the MacOSX Mail client is not showing up in my sent box on any other clients. Sent mail does show up in my personal email in Gmail, though.
    Can anyone help me understand why mail sent from the MacOSX Mail client doesn't end up in the sent folder of my work Gmail account? I suspect it has something to do with the forwarding-to-Google process -- a sort of "too many cooks in the kitchen" situation. Has anyone heard of this problem before? What should I try?

    I've been noticing that too.  Just told me there were 6 outgoing messages, even though I did not create any new messages.
    One hypothesis is that it's generating those messages when a rule moves an email from one folder to another.
    Can someone at Apple confirm this?

  • Imap mail sent from my iphone does not show up in the sent folder on my desktop

    imap mail sent from my iphone or ipad does not show up in the sent folder on my desktop

    Hi Bob,
    I'm using Mac Mail 4.5
    I have set up my mail preferences to include a "From"
    Web mail includes the appropriate "from" header information.
    Interestingly, when I send emails from this account on other machines it's ok.
    (ipad2,iPhone 3s,powermac)
    It just seems to be the MacBook Pro that is presenting this error.
    As an aside, my ISP host recently upgraded from Pop to Imap.

  • Mail not showing up

    I have apples products at home and a pc at the office. When I send mail on my pc, it does not show up in my sent folders on my apple devices. Is there a way to do that? Does iCloud only work when things are done on apple products?
    Thanks!

    Then it is nothing to do with iCloud, the problem (and help for it) lies elsewhere, start with Google and Yahoo.
    You are going to need to change the mapping of the sent folder, try Settings (in Gmail) and I have no clue regarding Yahoo.

    Sometimes zipping is not an optimal solution, such as when sending to a non computer savvy recipient who may not understand zip files. Is there no way to make sure that an attached image will show as an attachment to the recipient (and therefore by easy to download from the email)? Thanks.

  • Mail not showing new messages on 10.8.3

    Mail not showing new messages on 10.8.3, but messages show just fine on iPhone. Nothing changed to make this happen, not sure where to start. Thanks.

    Back up all data.

  • Apple mail not showing all the messages?

    In Apple mail, for my icloud account, I have some mailboxes which show the wrong number of messages, it shows too few.
    As an example, a mailbox contains 150 messages, but apple mail reports there are only 146.
    I rebuilt the mailbox and let apple mail do its thing. In the activity window I can see there are 150 messages. Yet, once apple mail has finished rebuilding the mailbox, it still tells me there are 146 messages. What's going wrong? Why would apple mail not show all the messages while in the activity window it clearly shows it knows there are 150?

    Solved!
    This was too weird to be real. Apple mail does not show messages it believes to be duplicates, and buy, does it make big mistakes in deciding what are duplicate messages and what not! Some of my mailboxes had over 100 "duplicates" not showing according to apple mail.
    I found a solution thanks to this topic:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
    defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
    does yield an error in 10.8.2 ( Domain (com.apple.mail) not found. Defaults have not been changed. )
    defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
    Does work brilliantly though!

  • Since moving to iCloud my mail not sending attachments any answers?

    Hi
    Since moving to iCloud my mail not sending attachments any answers?

    After the migration I started having problems with all NON Apple things.
    Now, as of July, 6th this is my situation:
    Lion devices and iOS5 devices (MacBook, MacPro, iPhone 4s and iPad I) - fine
    have a look here for info:
    AUTOMATIC SETUP FOR APPLE MAIL ON LION MACS

    Snow Leopard - set up after some trouble using these instructions:

    Non Apple clients should work with these instructions but I still cannot get MailForge to work:

    With my HP (Palm) Pre 3 I am still figuring out why every single day they change the servers:
    this however might help you as the Palm is more similar to the BB than the iPhone:
    PALM PRE 3 SETTINGS: I also have updated the password on iCloud, deleted the old iCloud account on the Pre, created a new one. Please note that it now sends using the older server, I do not know for how long.

  • Why my sent emails are not showing up in the sent box

    The emails I'm sending are not showing up in my sent box. Why is this happening? 

    - Did they show before?
    - Are you sending from the mail app?
    - Try sending from another account.
    - Try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
    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.

  • Mapping Mail to the IMAP Server's sent mail folder.

    In Mail, how do I tell my IMAP account what folder to store sent mail in on the IMAP server?
    NOTE! I am not asking how to make it store on the server. I know if you go to a mail boxes preferences you can check a box that says "Store sent messages on server." I assure you that box is checked.
    On my windows box I use Thunderbird, and with Thunderbird I have to manually tell it I want to store all of my mail in the subscribed folder entitled "sent-mail." This works fine. I can not figure out how to do this with Mail. I am assuming this is why my sent mail is not getting stored on the server.
    Cheers,

    Click on the Sent folder, then click Mailbox in the Menubar, place cursor on Use This Mailbox For, and choose Sent, which you should find in black type.
    Keep us posted.

  • I've downloaded a TV show for my ipod classic, it shows up on my PC ipod librargy but it does not show up on my Ipod play list

    I've recently downloaded a 3 TV shows from the Itunes store onto my Ipod classic.  It shows up on my PC Itunes playlist, andI can play it on my pc but will not show up on my Ipod play list.  I've searched all of the directories and can't see it there.
    I have plenty of space on the drive so that's not the issue.

    I think the issue may be that these TV shows are in HD. Would that keep them from playing?
    Yes.  Sounds like you are trying to sync the HD version of the TV Episode.  You should try to download the Standard Definition copy instead and sync that to your device as HD content is not compatible with the Nano.  See here for more information:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

    Hello!
    My iPod will not show up in the Itunes device list plus I get an error message
    " One or more devices is getting too much power from the USB wire" or sumptin like that.
    I've tried this with two wires, so the problem is not there.
    I reseted the iPod to factory settings but it didn't help.
    Anyone??

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another USB port and computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
