  • Jpeg attachment probles when sending from Mail to windows mail applications

    hi guys. I hope someone can help me as I have been going round in circles for months with this problem.
    The task is to send a jpeg attachment - simple isn't it!
    No problems attaching it, whether is embeded or viewed as an icon, that's ok. i have selected the option "always send windows friendly attachments" too.
    The problem is on the other end. Pretty much every time I get an email back saying that the images are embeded on the email and cannot be saved (right click, save as...) nor they appear listed as attachments. Not only that, but most times they also appear deformed with weird dimensions and loss of quality.
    Can someone help me out here, as you can all imagine sending images is pretty common these days, and whether we like it or not, most people use PCs still

    I'm afraid that you don't really have the same problem. You may have the same symptoms but you are not using the same email program, the same server (unless you are also using Gmail), and you are encoding your emails in a Mac specific format.
    http://kb.iu.edu/data/abzn.html
    I did find a tech blurb that said: "On the Macintosh, the default encoding method for attachments has been changed from BinHex to AppleDouble. This default works across platforms with all MIME-compliant email programs, including Eudora and Microsoft's Outlook Express and Outlook 98."
    I quit using Eudora when OS 10.2 came out, so I don't know much more about changing your method of encoding. I checked and the last version of Eudora came out in 2006. Qualcomm has discontinued development for Eudora and none of my clients are using it since it has become a dead end. The last version of Eudora is reported to work with Leopard if you make some changes in the sound files. There is still access to the support forums here:
    http://eudorabb.qualcomm.com/forumdisplay.php?s=0936570a42fd9c7b0631c91819e3d099 &f=10
    I guess that Thunderbird is the recommended program for Eudora users to migrate to if you don't want to use Apple Mail.
    You should probably start your own thread with the words "Eudora Attachments" in the title so that people who are using Eudora will see the name of the program and respond with up to date information.

  • Possible bug with HTML emails and attachments from Mail.app

    I'm trying to send an attachment with an HTML email from Mail.app and getting unexpected results. I've been messing around with the order that things get added to the new e-mail and it seems that I can have either an attachment or I can have HTML email, not both.
    The code... (of course simplified)
    tell application "Mail"
    set new_message to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"A subject", sender:"[email protected]"}
    tell new_message
    set visible to true
    make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:"[email protected]"}
    tell content to make new attachment with properties {file name:alias "Path to your file as string"} at after the last paragraph
    set html content to "<head><body>Some HTML here...</body></head>"
    end tell
    send new_message
    end tell

    The problem is that there is no such thing as HTML email.
    Well, I wonder what I have been generating for over three years now. RTF ? Because it sure looks like HTML. I must agree that HTML is not documented or even mentionned in the Mail AS dictionnary, but it does work, though you must specify visible to false so that it does. Here's my sub:
    tell application "Mail"
    set DMF to default message format
    set default message format to plain text
    set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject}
    tell newMessage
    set visible to false
    set sender to theSender
    make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {name:Photographer, address:theAddress}
    set html content to "<html><head><title>" & theSubject & "</title></head><body>" & "This is an automated response." & theSource & "Find your personnal planning on the web: " & thelink & "
    </body></html>"
    end tell
    send newMessage
    set default message format to DMF
    end tell

  • TS3276 My o2 email account does not work when sending from my MAC it will accept incoming mail but not send it gives me a message that  o2 account (offline) my mac I have no problem with my iPhone  or mac laptop. any suggestions please.

    My o2 email account does not work when sending from my MAC it will accept incoming mail but not send it gives me a message that  o2 account (offline) my mac I have no problem with my iPhone  or mac laptop. any suggestions please.

    Sorry for the delay...
    I did what you've told me, new account and manually copied my files from Time Machine. I had lots of permissions problems, but at the end, almost everything is in order... It seems it had to be with some of the Apple Preferences, but I can't be sure, as most of them were dumped to the trash can.
    I still don't have my Mail Rules back, unfortunately, although I did goggled some. It is a pity, as I had around 30 or 40 of them, getting my mail in order to each of its mailboxes, but it is a small price as the rest doesn't show the before syntoms.
    Thanks for the help, anyway!!

  • Remove geo-tag from iPhone photos when sending via Mail

    I sometimes send companies/people photos I've taken with my iPhone. It is convenient to take them, and send them.
    However, I've noticed that the geo-tag is not stripped from the photos when sent via Mail.app
    Technically, one could figure out where I live with it — not comfortable with that. I like the feature for my collection in iPhoto, but nowhere else. Facebook strips it out (smartly).
    Any suggestions apart from using 3rd party apps?

    Thanks guys, but I know I can disable it for future pictures — but I want to keep it for most pictures, but also feel safe that when I'm sharing them, that this information is stripped out.
    Any ideas apart from 3rd party apps?
    Maybe a feature request, no?

    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode
    A small guide on how to put your iPod touch / iPhone  into DFU mode. Works with all G’s of iPod touch / iPhone
    What is DFU: Device Firmware Upgrade
    Step 1: Turn off your iPod touch / iPhone completely and connect to PC / mac
    Step 2: Hold down the Power button for 3 seconds
    Step 3: Without releasing the power button, also hold the Home button for 10 seconds
    Step 4: Without releasing the home button, release the power button and keep holding the Home button  for 20 seconds.
    Itunes will identify that you are in DFU mode.
    That's when I got the black screen with USB and iTunes icons.  iTunes itself, did not show my phone.

  • Mail crashes in iPad and iPhone when sending reply

    A very odd thing keeps happening this morning - I am trying to respond to an email, and every time I hit send, the mail app crashes. I attempted to respond to the same email on my iPhone, and the same thing happened. I tried sending a test email to myself, and that worked. Any ideas on what the problem could be and how I could fix it?

    Hi Kristina...
    Try "resetting" the devices...
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try again. If that didn't help, on one device tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. If that helped, do the same for the other device.

  • Certain characters not appearing in the "full name" when sending e-mail

    I have certain characters in my full name of one of my e-mail aliases in iCloud. However, those characters are simply absent from the name shown as sender name when sending mail from Mail app in OS X. For me the problematic characters are C5 A1 and C4 8D (UTF-8 codes).

    Yes, š and č are those. Sorry, I wasn't sure if they will work here. I have my full name containing the š and č in the "Full Name" field of the e-mail alias settings on web interface to the iCloud Mail. But in Mail on OS X my name in the "From" field appears without those two characters (other characters are OK) when I select this alias. Also, those two characters are invisible at the recipient's side. And yes, if I sent a copy of such a mail to myself the š and č are missing again in the "From" field.
    However, I have the same full name with š and č for my main e-mail address (iCloud account name). Using this main e-mail address š and č appear everywhere!

  • Email replys missing their quote levels from Mail.app

    When I get html-formatted email from Mail.app that is a reply to an earlier message, the html version of the email looks fine. However, the text version that is also attached does not include any of the email quote levels.
    In other words, if the html version (as seen in Mail.app) looks like this:
    On Feb 5, 2010, at 10:31 AM, John Smith:
    | I confirmed with Jack that we will meet at 11
    The text version will look like this:
    On Feb 5, 2010, at 10:31 AM, John Smith:
    I confirmed with Jack that we will meet at 11
    I would exped the quoted text to start with "> ".
    This does not appear to happen when Mail.app is configured to send messages as Plain text.
    This seems like a bug. Is there a way to work around it until it gets fixed?
    Message was edited by: scottij

    Hello Greg.
    The Mail.app uses open internet standards for the message header and since there is so much bulk spam, many ISPs have spam filters on the server in addition to antivirus scans for attachments. There are false positives with both just as sometimes occurs with the the built-in spam filter with the Mail.app.
    The email client used by the recipient may also have a spam filter or a 3rd party spam filter which can also have false positives.
    If this occurs at the incoming mail server for the recipient, messages incorrectly marked as junk are not deleted and moved to a junk mailbox at the server. The recipient should have a preference setting at the server or the ability to mark a message as not junk (along with it is OK to allow future messages to be recieved by the sender's email address) that was incorrectly marked as junk by the spam filter.

  • How do I save "Sent" messages when sending from the ipad

    How do I save "Sent" messages when sending from the ipad2?

    By default sent items should be saved in your Sent folder. For IMAP type accounts you should be able to change that by selecting the account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then selecting 'Account' on the popup for it and then 'Advanced' at the bottom of the next popup

  • When sending e-mail, a message says that the sent folder is full,-- even though it is not-- however the mail still gets sent. No problem sending mail to myself

    I am running Thunderbird version 33.1 Recently, when sending e-mail, I get an error message indicating that the sent folder is full and that I should empty or compress it to fix the problem-- so I emptied it-- problem remains. Also, there is no record of sending the e-mail in the sent folder, even though the mail has been sent. No such problems occur when I send mail to myself.
    Any suggestions ???

    If you deleted some of the messages you have done one half of the process. Deleting a message just marks it for deletion and hides it from view. You have to COMPACT the folder to actually delete the messages and free up the space.
    I agree that Thunderbird did a poor job naming this process because it is the subject of much misunderstanding.
    Read about compacting here.
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_Tips_:_Compacting_Folders
    I suggest that you also read this article about maintaining your email system to help prevent problems.

  • What has happened to the rotating disk when sending e-mails in 6.2?

    What has happened to the rotating disk when sending e-mails in 6.2?

    Fast user switching is on... I use the Name reference but I've tried switching to icon with the same result. If the a account I'm switching to is not logged in I get a blank Blue screen for about 2 seconds then the desktop of the account. If the account is already logged in then from the login window (all accounts have passwords) it just switches directly to the desktop.
    I have spaces turned on on my main account however none of the other accounts do, the same thing happens regardless of which account you are switching from or to.
    If you hadn't said it was working for you I would have believe they just pulled it from Leopard.

  • HT2623 How to make my full name disappear when sending from my primary email address.

    I would like to make my full name disappear when sending from my primary email address. so the recipient when receives my email can see only my email address, i.e. email address of the sender. In Preferences, Accounts, my full name is greyed out and I cannot change it. If I try to do Custom, it would let me change it, i.e. delete my name from Full Name box, but then when Mail is closed and reopened, it would lose the previously saved Custom setting and go back to the same. All my other aliases associated with this email account work ok and the receiver sees only the email address.
    Does anyone know what is going on?

    What if you remove the .mac account from the Accounts panel under mail Preference?
    If that doesn't work, sign into the webmail at me.com, click the "sprocket" button and select preference, in preference go the the aliases tab see if you can remove the email address with your name. If not, go to composing tab see if there is anything you can remove from the +Identity: send email as field+. Good luck.
