Mail won't send attached e-mail.
Greetings,
I'm a new Mac user, and I'm having this problem with my mail account. When I try to send an e-mail that has attachments to it, it takes a long time to send (that is, if it sends). The little blue bar that says "Outgoing messages" is completely full, and it does not send. And it doesn't matter the size of the e-mail nor the size of the attachment, it still does not send.
Please help.
Att.
I don't use Hotmail (I'm allergic to any Microsoft product ), but I'd check both your ISP's and Hotmail's maximum allowed email/attachments file size. I have a Yahoo account and they do have not only a maximum on the number of attachments, but also the file size. Are you sending it to a large number of recipients? That could be another problem - some ISP's limit the number of recipients to discourage spammers.

Applescript for mail.app won't send attachment
I have an applescript to send a mail attachment but the mail sends without the attachment? Anyone know why?
set theContent to (current date) as string
set theSubject to "excel file"
set theTarget to "someone @someplace.com"
set theSender to "admin"
set theName to "some name"
set theAttachment to "mcp0_HD:Users:bill:Site:logs:deviceLogs.xls"
tell application "Mail"
set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject, content:theContent & return & return}
tell newMessage
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {visible:true, name:theName, address:theTarget}
set sender to theSender
tell content
make new attachment with properties {file name:theAttachment} at after the last paragraph
send newMessage
end tell
end tell
end tellIf you are still having problems, then there is something wrong with your file that you are trying to attach, or your declaration of this variable:
set theAttachment to "mcp0_HD:Users:bill:Site:logs:deviceLogs.xls"
Examine that very carefully. It is also a good idea to use the *path to* nomenclature (see the Dictionary for *+Standard Additions+* for more details) to access a file in cases like these. For example, here is the pertinent portion of a script that I have used since the Panther days to do precisely what you are trying to do:
set pay_Path to ((path to documents folder as text) & "Cathouse:Payroll:Paysheets:Today.xls")
tell application "Mail"
set b to make new outgoing message with properties {sender:"[email protected]", subject:("Payroll")}
set content of b to "Hello:
Here is the payroll ending today: " & return & return
tell b's content
make new attachment with properties {file name:pay_Path as alias} at after the last paragraph
end tell
tell b to make new to recipient with properties {address:"[email protected]"}
send b
end tell
I use this every other week to report my payroll to my accountant. It has never failed, and I am using Leopard (10.5.7).
Good luck, -
.Mail won't send attachments
Since upgrading to OS X 10.7, Mail usually won't send attachments. It does not matter if the attachment is small (~300kb) or larger (~3MB). Mail will try to send it (and if you watch the progress bar in the lower right corner of Mail, you can see that it starts uploading the message), but then it stops. Then I get the message: "Cannot send message using the server..." Occsaionally, attachments will work, but I haven't been able to determine why. This is the case for both my desktop (10.7.2) and my laptop (10.7.3).
The e-mail affected is a g-mail account configured through IMAP. I have verified that I have internet connectivity while experiencing this problem and I can even send other e-mails w/o file attachments. I opened the Connection Doctor and everything logs in/out correctly. The details from Connection Doctor are below.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

6.29 LOGOUTI am going to try removing the account from mail and then setting it up again to see if it solves the issue.

A couple days ago I first noticed the problem when snapchats would appear on my lock screen but when I opened the app I kept getting the error message that the app was not able to refresh my story. Then the next day I was no longer able to send iMessages, they wouldn't go through and would only reach the second party when I sent them as text messages. Also, YouTube won't load and Mail won't send or receive email. I've already tried restarting my phone but there was no change. At first I thought my network connection was the problem but Instagram, Safari, Vine and Pandora all work perfectly. Any suggestions?
Try this procedure to be sure of a proper restart.
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
I would also try: Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings -
Hello Gurus,
Please help me with the mail sending attachment(excel file) using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
Here is the actual problem.
I am using the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 in my prog.
My attachment(excel sheet which is taken from internal table) contains the 10 records with one header description and data related to that description.
I am able to send the attachment but the records in the attachment has more than 255 characters nearly 700 character length.
So I spilt up each internal table record(with structure type solisti1) into 3 internal table records and populated it.
It is showing the entire record in the attached file but I am not able to see some fields which are embeded deeply inside the cells.
And they are not having any proper allignment.
Please do help me.

After update to OSX 10.9, Mail won't send attachments
Since upgrading to Mavericks (OSX 10.9), Mail (7.0) won't send email attachments using my employer's MS Exchange account. All other messages (without attachments) send just fine, and no Exchange server or account settings were changed. Attachments send just fine via the exchange web application, so it's not an account or mailbox size issue. The problem happens even with small attachments (I just tried one that was 173 kb).
After I hit send, the activity window says "adding message" for a time, then an error comes up "Cannot send message using the Exhange server" then give me an option to use my gmail or icloud which work fine.
Any ideas?I actually was able to solve the issue using some info gleaned from other posts. I think it had to do with some exchange account settings from a prior version of Mail that were still on my machine and interfering with the new Mail app. Here's what I did to fix the issue.
Make sure I had a good backup in Time Machine (including system settings) in case something goes wrong
Delete Exchange account using "system preferences > internet accounts"
Close Mail
Show hidden files
Terminal command: defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
Terminal command: killall Finder
Using Finder, locate and delete the file: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Using Finder, locate and delete the folder(s) and all their contents: ~/Library/Mail/V2/EWS-(your exchange acct info)I actually had a couple of these "EWS" folders in there from prior times that I had setup my exchange account. Not sure why ... I just deleted them all.
Empty the recycle bin
Reboot the computer
Hide hidden files (not necessary, it's just my preference)
Terminal command: defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
Terminal command: killall Finder
Open "system preferences > internet accounts" and setup Exchange account as if it were the first time.
It took a while for all my mailboxes to rebuild and everything to come in, but after the initial sync, Mail 7.0 now works perfectly with my Exchange account including sending mail with file attachments. It's actually a lot quicker to receive and send than the prior version of Mail.
It doesn't seem like a widespread problem, but I hope this at least helps you (eprasek) with your issue. Best of luck! -

I'm using ipad2 with ios5. My outbox won't send mail. I guess i need an outgoing server and can't find it anywhere. Any suggestions on how to get it to send. I have tried everything, rebooting, ensuring passwords are correct, etc.
My problem is i don't have an outgoing server spot on my menu. These are my selections. After getting to the menu that where i enter my password for hotmail, i have the following menu choices: Email, then server (bay-m.hotmail.com, then domain (empty), then username, then password, thendescription, then Use SSL, then S/MIME
I don't see or can find an outgoing server choice. My daughter has an ipad2 using Ios4 and she has all the choices that are illustrated on. All the help sites. I only have the ones listed above. -
Had a problem earlier with my email account (Yahoo) being hacked, After resetting password all seemed to be well, but now my iPad won't send mail, it goes into OUTBOX but won't send. Receiving mail is no problem.
I am new to iPad and need a bit of help.
Thanks
JohnBrilliant! Thanks Jaimi E.
My iPad did resume 'normal service' after an overnight rest. I did not know that there was an imposed 24hr quarantine, but I do know that all's well now.
I found The BT staff in their technical help desk were good at fixing the original hacking problem on my laptop, but totally helpless at sorting the iPad issues out.
I had to talk to Apple help desk in UK who in turn put me through to the USA. Their consultant was great, but he undoubtedly didn't seem to aware of the quarantine imposed by Yahoo. I will try to get this information through to him for future information
Thanks to all for your assistance.
My message to anyone who reads this topic and has been hacked on Yahoo (or btinternet) is
1 update security passwords on laptop. New password required. Delete all traces of hacked messages (inc failed delivery notices and real people's responses)
2 uninstall your mail settings on iPad and reinstall with new mail password on iPad.
3 the iPad mail system should then receive, but not send mail (goes into Outbox)
4 wait 24 hours then everything will be back to normal.
As a brand new user and about to go on a long holiday, it was a nightmare, but ended up fine!
Now in Singapore at 6am local time, can't sleep so catching up on my machine which functions perfectly! -
Mail replies won't send in OS 10.8.3
Replies to mail messages that have a link within the message won't "send" unless I delete the link and any other messages beneath the message I am replying to . Message hangs up in activity window . I've checked with my ISP and all is fine there. My older iMac running OS 10.6.8 mail works flawlessly . What is going on here? New messages "send" o.k. So I'm clueless and bummed about what appears to be some mail glitch on ML.
Also, what is this new "envelope shaped" mail format with the blue border ? Is there some option to change the format back to the regular " letter shaped" mail format ?
Thanks for any help !
Carolyn. a.k.a. gladys2So far, no big change, but I have figured out how to circumvent the problem by just deleting anything I'm replying to other than the last message in a group of "back and forth" mail. (if that makes any sense). Its a minor hassle, but I'm not willing to risk messing up things by getting into areas where I'm not comfortable.... like messing with the Library.
I did run Repair Permissions a couple of times after I had tried everything else that was obvious, shut down, unplugged and restarted. I also sent an e-mail to Apple support and told them what I thought about Mail in ML.
It comforts me somewhat to see that there are a lot of folks out there with the same type problems, each with variations on the theme ! :-)
I do appreciate all you suggested. If you come up with any other easy ideas, let me know. You are a good guy to show concern and try to help !

I'm switching from Thunderbird back to Mail, and I've encountered a problem - it won't send anything. When I click on "New Message" or "Reply" or anything that would send, nothing at all happens. How can I fix that? Thanks!

Mail won't send in Leopard-Mail
Hello, I know this subject has been up for a while, but can someone help me step by step to get my mail to send in Leopard? It's a POP account, and never worked in Mail Tiger, but I got it working in Entourage. Now in Leopard, Entourage won't send either. My sending options in Mail always end up in "(account name) - Offline". How can I get that active?
I tried port 110, port 587, but maybe I have confusion in SMTP yes or no, port number,authentication yes or no ...
Thanks for any help!Dear M.Bode, thanks so much for you advice. It didn't work in Mail, but it did work in Entourage!
In outgoing I did not check the boxes for SSL, I wrote port 25, and no authentication (password).
It sent my test mail. I did the same thing on Mac Mail, and it wouldn't work. Too bad, I'd like to use Mail, and hope the problem will be addressed and the usage made simple again. Thanks again! -
Connection is fine, but mail won't send?
When I use the 'Connection Doctor' it says all of the connections are successful, but it still won't send!
I updated to Leopard last night - the 'send' button was greyed out in the mail program.
I use two accounts and one of them did not have an active smtp even though it had been in my Tiger email version. It happens that I was attempting to send mail using this account - had I chosen the other account the mail would have been sent out aok.
I selected the smtp account from the dropdown menu (preferences / account information / outgoing smtp) and 'voila' back up and running. I'm not certain why apple would deactivate this - doesn't make a whole lot of sense. -
mail icon not in dock- mail won't send - a drop down small box appears and when a message is typed in to sent the send icon goes grey and a black dot appears on the red dot in top left side of box and the message will be sent to drafts only
Hello Bill,
Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
Mail: Can't send messages, "Cannot send message using the server smtp.xxxxx.com" alert appears...

When I right-click on an image, and click "Send Image", nothing happens. There is NO response at all. "Save Image" works normally. This problem showed up when I upgraded to 4.0. Previous versions worked OK.
