Multiple "picture attached" emails received

Has anyone found a solution to the problem that occurs when you send an email with a picture attachment from the iphone and recipients get 3-5 copies of the email?

The account being a Yahoo account says much. I have read many posts here with ongoing problems with accessing a Yahoo account with the iPhone's mail client since the first generation iPhone was released. Keep in mind if you used the Yahoo account preset on your iPhone when creating the account, this created the account as an IMAP account along with Push access for the account - which is available with the iPhone's mail client only and both protocols are completely new for Yahoo.
The iPhone receiving a transmission failed error message comes from a server, likely from Yahoo's SMTP server.
All I know is I accessed my .Mac account as an IMAP account and a business POP account with my first generation iPhone for over a year before purchasing an iPhone 3G. I send photos regularly with both accounts and I never experienced this problem with my first generation iPhone, and I haven't experienced this problem with my iPhone 3G - with either account.
The iPhone may be involved or the cause of this problem and if so, seems like I would have experienced the same at least once with one of my email accounts over the last 17 months.
I venture to say the problem lies with Yahoo or with Yahoo's SMTP server.

Attaching Multiple Picture to Email - HP Touchsmart 520

I can not for the life of me figure out how to attach multiple pictures to an email. With my old computer I just help down the control key.
Thanks!

Hello Stumped65:
All e-mail accounts are different to begin with some only allow a few pictures to send out at ounce. Some e-mail accounts such as Aol.com has templates to load pictures. Click on attach or paper clip icon. When the window opens select picture repeat steps on e-mail accounts with limited settings and tools. Aol allows click and drag and drop. You can put your pictures into a folder and load up that one file. Make sure you select copy picture to new folder first. If just drag and drop methed you are just moving orginal copy to a file folder. When you up load it your pictures are gone. Make it says copy and not move. Windows 7 has very limited methods short cuts. What we did with XP computers is different. Aol Desk top still allows click and drop and animation pictures.
You can still right click on white part in picture folder window and hold down and drag blue line across picture and ounce blue you then can move them where ever delete, rename selected. I do not think hot mail (live essental) or yahoo allows click , drag and drop method. Not with Windows 7 computers.

Sent pictures via email receiver cannot open them to view, her computer shuts down right away, will not open?

I send pictures I take all the time through my email, I sent some pictures to my sister and she said her computer shut down and would not let her even open the pictures. I had a virus in the past, is this a security thing, or maybe I sent too many pictures and her computer could not handle all of them?

How is your sister receiving your email and those attachments? Webmail in Firefox? Or, an email client like Thunderbird?
How big is the file size of those images? Maybe you could make the image smaller by running them thru a graphics program like G.I.M.P.. No point in sending an image that is 4 times the size of the screen.
I doubt if a virus ''(in the past)'' on your PC could affect her PC. I would expect her webmail portal to screen for viruses before letting her see those images. And if she is using an email client on her PC to collect her email, I would hope that her anti-virus application scans downloaded images before they end up in her email client.
Overall, I think the images you sent her are too big for her PC, or she has something wrong with her PC and needs to have it fixed. But I don't know how Firefox is involved, without knowing the webmail vs email client situation.

Control key not working when selecting multiple photos for email

Okay, I can't seem to send more than one photo through email no matter how I try to "select them." I am able to select the photos from the photo library. I see the little scrolling screen at the top of the page and then use the control key to select the photos which appear in the larger screen beneath. The problem is, is that I can't send all of the pictures through email, it thinks I am only trying to send one. When I look at the big screen with the pictures I have selected it looks like only one is highlighted and no matter what I try (the control key, shift key) it won't select them, it pops up with an picture editing function. Is my iphoto screwed up? Help!

Okay, I tried both. I clicked <done> at the bottom of the screen and the scroll bar at the top disappeared and then I just see one large photo. The only thing that happens when I double click on the large photo is that it comes back to the scroll bar at the top again, or vice versa. Does that make sense? I'm seriously wondering if my software is screwed up. My husband finally was able to send multiple pictures via email by creating a slideshow and selecting the pictures that way. (iphoto help says you are not able to select pictures to send through email through a slide show....go figure.) I still need to get out of this mode and don't know what to do! Any other suggestions?

One email with iPhone pic attachment is received multiple times

Searched the discussions and couldn't find this one. Problem is this:
My wife takes a picture with her iPhone and goes back to her camera roll to view it. While viewing the picture, she clicks to email the photo. She sends it out to her recipients (one time!), who are happy to get the picture the first time, but not the 3, 4 or 5 times following!
Any thoughts on what the issue here is? Recipient email addresses are in both Yahoo and AOL, so it can't be blamed on the recipient email server.
Why are these leaving the outbox multiple times?
Also, no "multiple sent" issues with emails that don't have pix attached.
Thanks! -Steve

I have this exact same problem. After trying to send an email with a picture attached, the person receives it multiple times and then i will get an error on my device, stating that the email did not deliver, when in fact it did, and keeps on sending it a few more times. Between 2 and 5 times each time i send an email with a picture. This was not happening if a picture was not attached.

How can I choose multiple pictures, on the iPad, to attach in an email using Mail?

I can easily choose and attach one picture from Photos to an email in Mail. I cannot seem to figure out how to choose multiple pictures, then attach all of them at once. I even tried using a separate folder to attach but that did not work either. Thanks in advance.

From the Photos app tap Edit.
Tap to select up to 5 photos. More and the Mail option is not possible.
Tap Share.
Tap Mail.

Separately , going back and forth from my picture roll to my email. I tried to copy and paste multiple pictures but it would only paste the last picture
I copied. I am new to apple, so any help would be appreciated .

If you use the Mail App and configure a Yahoo account you can then select up to 5 pictures from the Photo App and mail them as a single e-mail.

When using 3G on my ipad2, gmail won't send mail. The 2 emails i'm trying to send have 3 pictures attached and are stuck in the Outbox-checkd server under settings

Been trying to send 2 emails from Ipad2 with pictures attached from gmail. Both emails have been stuck in my Outbox and gmail continually tries to send but i keep getting a nessage that the gmail server can't be found. Went under settings, checked server and it seems fine. I don't have Wifi @home or else i'd try switching. Any ideas of what could be happenin'?

daviddavidff, we want you to be able to send and receive! If Earthlink has confirmed the outgoing server settings and you can access the email and send without issue from a labtop I would lean away from it being an issue with the account. If you can receive email then we know the device is communicating with the network.
I would try deleting the any email in the outbox folder http://bit.ly/1g1labk and then attempt to send a new email. Send the email to your own email address so we can verify success. Let us know if you can then send email.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Attaching pictures to email.

Hi,
I sent some pictures by email yesterday and it work fine, the format was perfect. But today, when i went to attach pictures to a hotmail email, it took ages and the format was way too big. The only thing i can think of that could of created this change is that i modified a lot of the pictures today. (just sharpened a few and played around with lighting and so on). I'm on a mac OS X 10.4.6 and i'm using iphoto. Any ideas on how to resolve this problem??
Thanx
PoKa

Hi PoKa,
I am wondering how you attached iPhoto images to your hotmail account?
The easiest way to attach photos through iPhoto is using the Share > Email option, where you can adjust size of attachment, but I don't think you can use hotmail.
If I were you, this is what I would do. Open iPhoto, select a photo, use the Share > Export option, when the window opens you can select 'Scale images no larger than:' I would reduce them to 640 x 480 +/_ export to a folder on your desktop. You can log into Yahoo mail, simply find image and attach... I use yahoo and this seems to be the only fool proof way.
The reason you were attaching large files, I would assume you went through your pictures folder and used the 'thumbnails' initially and on your second time around your were using the orginals...

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.
