Mail -- Preventing Forwarding

Is there a way to prevent someone from forwarding a Mail message? In other words, is there a way, upon creating a mail message to prevent the recipients from forwarding?

No.

Mail not forwarding to Gmail

For years Mail has been forwarding all mails to my Gmail account however I noticed today that it is no longer forwarding. I went into Mail to check the settings but now I can seem to find where it was that I designated the forwarding option. I went online to my mobile me account and cannot see the settings there either. Its been so long since I needed to look at this, has something changed in recent version to remove this option? If not can you share how to navigate to the settings window for this?
Thank you,
todd

Hi Todd,
I know that Mail in Leopard and Snow Leopard does not support forwarding from within the client, something like that is usually a server side setting. To be honest, even going back to Panther, I don't ever recall seeing an option from within the application itself to configure forwarding.
You can configure mail forwarding within Mobile Me via the website.
1.) Login to your account
2.) Go the Mail view
3.) Click on the gear wheel button, within mail (not the one that the looks like the mini System Preferences icon).
4.) Select Preferences
5.) Go to other and set the forwarding (yes or no) and the address to which the mail is forwarded.

Haven't been able to reply to e-mail or forward any-

I haven't been able to "reply" to any e-mail that has been sent to me or forward any- when i write my reply and hit send it shows "sending message" then shows "taking longer than usual" then asks me to return to message. the e-mail never gets sent. It shows "message could not be sent due to a connection problem" I can create a "new" e-mail and send it without problems. I am using Yahoo mail

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop

New Yahoo mail reply/forward works with Explorer but not Firefox

Recently switched my Yahoo mail account to New Yahoo Mail. New Yahoo worked fine with Firefox until Firefox update. Now can see my mail but can't reply or forward. As suggested by Yahoo, upgraded both Flash Player & Java Script & also disabled Firefox plugins but no luck. After Flash/Java upgrades, New Yahoo worked with Explorer.

Mail.app forward problem

Hello,
i am experiencing a problem with mail.app
I have installed two email pop account which are working normally.
The problem is that. When trying to forward messages with ppictures or attachments (normal size) the messages stuck in outbox, the activity panel shows "done 100%" constantly but the messages is not being send. After a while you an option window to select other smtp server but the problem remains the same. If you try to send any message by "new mail" option then message is being send normally.
This is weird and annoying and i can not resolve it.
System has all the latest updates (10.6.2) and is a brand new iMac.
Please kindly advice.
Thank you for your attention.

If you have a backup, use it first. Otherwise the answer is that you should always have a backup
All you might lose is your account server/logins, any personal settings for the tool bar, color settings etc. It won't affect your messages. I've had to do this before and it's a typical method because the plist is the expected casualty point when something like this happens. The next time you run MAIL it will build a fresh plist and then you can make any specific changes that are needed. In terms of troubleshooting, it is one of the more risk free methods around.
If you want to be safe, simply move that file to the desktop long enough to test.
• If it doesn't help or if you think it makes something worse, trash the temporary replacement and then put the original back.
• If it fixes the issue, then you can trash it.
If you are at all reluctant, don't do it.

Icloud mail, some forwarded messages not delivered

Dear all,
I do forward my two professional mailboxes to icloud.com so I have all my emails centralized in a single location.
Since a few days, some of the messages forwarded are not delivered to my icloud inbox; I assume they are blocked by the spam assassin.
What is possible to do to avoid messages to be blocked ?
Is there a way to view messages blocked on server side ? (messages do not arrive in Mail app as spam, it is not delivered at all!)
Is it possible to change the spam assassin working level ?
Thanks in advance,
Lionel

I have the same problem. E-mail messages from the website www.hotelkamerveiling.nl do not arrive in my iCloud mailbox. With Gmail, there is no problem. I contacted Apple about this. The say that they can't do anything about this problem. I think that is strange. As a user, you should be able to alter spam settings.

Can't work out how to stop Mac mail from Forwarding to GMail account.

Okay. This is on behalf of my sister. For whatever reason, when emails are sent to her @mac.com address they get forwarded to her GMail account and deleted from her @mac.com address. So they never appear in her @mac.com inbox. She now wants this relationship to stop and wants to delete her GMail account due to hacking fears and use the @mac.com address as it was intended, but between us we can not figure out where the setting that is doing the forwarding and deleting command it set. I thought I had nailed it when I hit upon the "Rules" section in OS Mail preferences, but there was nothing in there. I then thought it might be a setting on her GMail account, but they are all standard as well.
So is there some place I'm not looking in either OS Mail or on me.com, or some place else that contains this type of forwarding commands that I'm clearly missing.
Thank you for any suggestions in advance
One thought I had was if I deleted her Mac account from OS Mail and re-built it, would that start everything from scratch???

Managed to solve this myself. Yeah.
It was a Mobile Me setting.
log on to me.com in an internet browser. Then select the preferences option under actions in the Mail area and select other, and in there you'll find forwarding options.... what a ball ache to find it though. Its not very clear at all. If u have a similar problem, then I suggest logging into me.com and do a search for forwarding and you'll find what you need straight away.

Can mail be forwarded as an attachment?

In order to forward SPAM to my ISP I have to forward the spam as an attachment in RFC_822 MIME format. Can this be done with Apple Mail in Tiger? If so, how?
(It is a simple endeavor in practically every other mail app on the PC, but I cannot seem to figure it out in Mail on the Mac.)

Buck,
This comes up routinely in this forum. I do not think there is a difference in forwarding with the Long Headers fully displayed, versus "as an attachment", which Mail does not directly provide for. If sending to only forward, and not for abuse reporting, check you Mail Help for "Forwarding several messages" and the use of the Append Selected Messages function.
For general background, read the following pasted comments I have made to others:
As I have read and researched this question, it appears that many email clients do not send the Headers of the messages during forwarding (this style is called Inline Forwarding) unless you specify forwarding as an attachment. Mail is not in this category -- it will send the full message, including Headers depending upon how you have your Mail Preferences set for Composing.
In Mail, if you click on View in the Menubar, and then Message, and choose Long Headers, the entire Header detail, including any Reply To Header (if present) will open, and if you forward with these headers showing, then the recipient will see them. Further more, if you change your Viewing Preferences to Customize your header view, and then forward the entire message, that detail will accompany the message.
It is important to check your Preference settings for Compose, and also, are you using Smart addresses or are you showing Name and Address -- this is controlled by clicking on View in the Menubar, and then Addresses, and choosing between Smart Addresses and Show Name and Address.
Among the sources I have checked for expressing this opinion are:
http://mailformat.dan.info/quoting/forwarding.html
http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/decode.htm
and others.
A reason sometimes cited in reference to Forwarding as an Attachment, is to send a potentially dangerous message to the abuse desk of your ISP, and not activate any links, etc. I do not believe Mail can perform this, as it is generally thought of. There may be some scripts that accomplish this, but I do not think it is necessary in reporting suspect messages.
I hope this helps.

AppleScript, Mail.app - Forward command doubles content - Mountain Lion

I'm trying to write an AppleScript to Forward or Redirect an email. It works fine but doubles up the content when I change any of the new emails details. Eg the subject, 'to recipient', etc.
My code is:
tell application "Mail"
          set theSelection to selection
          set theForwardedMessage to forward (item 1 of theSelection) with opening window
          tell theForwardedMessage
                         set subject to "{plain} " & subject
          end tell
end tell
This is under Mountain Lion, 10.8.2, Mail.app is version 6.2 (1499).
Any help would be much appreciated.
TIA, James.

Thanks Pierre. That's really helpful.
On its own that didn't work, but if I put in a 'display dialog' command it does. Ie this works:
tell application "Mail"
          set theSelection to selection
          set theForwardedMessage to forward (item 1 of theSelection) with opening window
          set theSubject to subject of theForwardedMessage
activate
          tell application "System Events" to tell process "Mail"
display dialog "1"
                    tell text field "Subject:" of window 1
                              set focused to true
                              set value to "{plain} " & theSubject
                    end tell
          end tell
end tell
I also want the recipient filled in, but it doesn't work for me. In this code it displays the 'A' dialog then stops:
tell application "Mail"
          set theSelection to selection
          set theForwardedMessage to forward (item 1 of theSelection) with opening window
          set theSubject to subject of theForwardedMessage
activate
          tell application "System Events" to tell process "Mail"
display dialog "1"
                    tell text field "Subject:" of window 1
                              set focused to true
                              set value to "{plain} " & theSubject
                    end tell
                    tell text field "To:" of window 1
display dialog "A"
                              set focused to true
display dialog "B"
                              set value to "[email protected]"
                    end tell
          end tell
end tell
Ie it never gets to the 'B' dialog.
So perhaps that field is called something else? How do you find out what the 'To:' field is called?
Thanks,
James.

How to clean up e mail before forwarding

How to omitt headers from e mails before I forward

Am disappointed this has not received a reply in over two years. New in Mountain Lion, when an email is forwarded, a greatly expanded header section is displayed. This was not the default case in prior versions of OS X. It is a major distraction and serves no apparent purpose. There should be an ability to turn off the display of headers starting with "Return-path" through "Content-type".

Mail Reply/Forward Arrow Missing on Server Received/Sent Mail

Since updating to Snow Leopard, Mail (4.1) does not show the reply or forward arrow after replying or forwarding mail received from/sent to any address on our server at work. All other answered/forwarded mail that does not originate from within my business office has the arrow and shows the reply when I click on it. Interestingly, if I scroll down to mail that was answered/forwarded prior to installing SL, the arrow is there but when I click on it, I receive this error: "Mail was unable to find your reply to the message. You may have deleted the message." Yet the reply is still in my sent folder.

I'm having similar issues, tried trashing the prefs file based on a suggestion in a different thread, but that didn't help. I rely on being able to track replies in mail and this is a big issue; it sure would be nice if Apple would fix all the nagging gremlins in their critical apps (Mail, iCal, Address Book) hopefully Outlook for the Mac will make the issue moot.

Cannot send new mails neither forward, but can reply (without adding new recipients) - HELP!

Hi all.
I have a very annoying problem. Sudenly, when I start typing a name in field "to" when composing an e-mail, the BB doesn't lookup in the device address book! This happens in new messages or forwarding. Also, even if I try to manually type the address the BB does not recognize it.
However, I can reply but not add new recipients.
Even the SEND option dissapear.
I googled the issue but cannot find an answer. It is worth mentioning that the device is personal, not corporate.
I am not very sure, but I think the problem began when installing LinkedIn Application. I uninstalled but it did not fixed.
Thank you all!

Hello all!!
This is my first answer in BlackBerry Support Community.
I had the same problem, but searching I found this solution:

I toggled back and forth between the yes and no setting, and the autolookup works fine when set to "no" and stops working when set to "yes". Everytime.
Now, I'm not sure what the purpose of "show recent contact..." setting is. It doesn't do anything when set to "yes".
I hope that works for them, works for me.
Best regards

Mail.app forwarding loses original sender's address?

I've used MacOS X from the start, but only started using mail.app with the release of 10.7.
I forwarded an incoming message to a colleague from mail.app, with the request that he reply to it. He emailed back, "I can't, the original sender's address isn't included."
He sent back what he received from me, including all (?) headers. No sign of the original sender's address.
In forwarding from previous mail s/w I've used, it seems to me, the original sender's address is always forwarded.
Did I (or my colleague) miss something?
Does mail.app NOT routinely forward the original sender's address?
If this is the case is there a way to defeat this behavior? (What's the point of forwarding a message unless the new recipient can reply?)
Of course, the workaround is to manually copy-and-paste the address into the forwarded message.
TIA

In my mail app on my iPad if I reply to an email the reply email has the name of the individual and enclosed in<> is the original senders email address in the body of the email.
Or are you expecting the original sender to appear in the to from cc area of the email. If that's where you want it type the first few letters of the senders name and the address should pop up to allow you to insert it.
