No right-click "Property" to screen unknown email senders

In my old Outlook Express I could right-click on an unknown sender in the Inbox and click "Propertiies" which contained information on the sender, message origin and routing to help screen unwanted or phishing emails before I opened it. As far as I can tell Thunderbird (v.24.30) does not have this useful feature.

You can inspect the message headers if you think it's useful.

  • Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.

    Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.  There is now only a short three item menu:
    Previously there was a longer menu (like the one when right clicking an item on a Safari page):
    I've looked in Preferences and at all the Mail dropdown items but can't find any way to get the old menu back (or why it changed).  In particular, I miss the "copy image" item which allowed me to copy an item image into a new email for forwarding.  I've got two email accounts, an IMAP and a POP.  The behavior is the same with both.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Your screen shots are not visible to me.  But I think I understand your question.
    Several thoughts come to mind:

    You can still, of course, simply forward the entire email message containing the image.
    You could also use the "Save Attachment ..." feature available when you right click and copy and paste from there once the image is saved.
    Less likely, you could also use the "Share" feature available when you right click, though I suspect it may not offer sharing options that you would like.

  • Right click a weblink in an email not working in Mavericks Mail

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, I used to right-click a weblink in an email to 'add to reading list'.
    This worked every time and it would add to the reading list, and I could later visit Safari and go from there.
    Since the upgrade, when I click I don't get this, I have to hold down the control key to get the 'add to reading list' contextual menu, however this differs from email to email, sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not.
    Anybody else getting this and have a possible solution?
    I don't have any weired contextual menu extensions or anything like that, and I've the latest version of Mavericks.

  • Right clicking on a person's email address no longer allows me to "copy email address" a feature I used a ton. How can I do this now?

    Hello, We use a program called Zimbra for work which houses our email and calendar systems. I used to be able to hover over someone's email address, right click, and an option would pop up to allow me to "copy email address". This feature stopped a week or more ago and I called my business tech support and they said it is not a feature of Zimbra so perhaps it is a Firefox issue. Thought I would ask. I do a lot of copy and pasting of email addresses for our job listservs and this was a helpful feature.

    Thanks Barney.  Yes, duplicating the file is a work around and I will use it for now.  I was hoping that I could set a preference or something to have TextEdit save new files like it used to.  Not sure why a redesign would limit options for saving files.  That, to me, is crazy. Using the duplicating feature means more clicks to get it to do what I used to be able to do more easy.  I hate "improvements" like this to an app. 
    I have "Documents and Data" checked in my iCloud preferences and when I uncheck it warns me that unchecking means that if I turn it off then all documents stored in iCloud will be deleted from the Mac.  Not sure if I want to do that or nor.  I don't like using iCloud for storage, but I think my photos from my iphoneare on there and I am not sure I want to keep those deleted off of this Mac as I use some photos for work related items and this is a work related Mac.  What do you think?
    I would like to try a "save as" option, but that does not even come up when the "File" menu is selected.  Using the command key does not make it appear either. 
    And thanks for the advice about a hidden preference for iCloud.  I have not found it, but I amnot sure why they would hide such a preference either. 
    I switched to Mac a few years ago because they were so much better than PCs. Now, they seem to be creeping into PC **** with unnecessary changes to apps that do not make any sense to me. 

  • Right-click File then select to email

    Is there an option to do this in OS X? I would like to be able to like right click a file on my desktop and then select an option to email, so then it would automatically attach the file in an email. Any help would be appreciated.

    You can very easily build a little menu item to do this - or anything else you'd like - using the built-in application Automater. Read the Help files on your computer for details.

  • How do I right click on a document and email with outlook?

    Right now I right click, and under share it offers only airdrop or messages. There is no email option. I would rather not have to open a seperate email window and then drag and drop the document. This seems so tedious. Any suggestions?

    A few suggestions in this post, they may do what you want. I use Apples Mail client and this does give the option to email from Finder, hopefully one of the suggestions in the post will help.

  • Why Transaction iView Turns to a White Screen When Right Clicking?

    Hi Experts,
    We have created a transaction iView for the property tree in 2 systems: our system and the client's system. In the portal after we open the screen and right click on the screen, the whole screen turns to a white screen. But it only does that in the client's system not our system.
    This is the error in the bottom of the page "Object doesn't support the property or method". Both systems use SAP NetWeaver 7.0 2004s. Has anyone come across this issue before? I would very appreciate any responses.
    Thank you,
    Don P.

    Hi
    You can try these checks on your client's system... looks like some browser issue..
    I am assuming you are running on same IE versions on both the systems..
    1. Try to open in some other browser( mozilla or chrome...) and see if it works..
    2. Check this microsoft link also.

  • When I boot up I get a complete white screen and can't access any thing including task bar. When I right click and hit properties it says it is a Firefox docum

    I downloaded a video in a zip file, when it started the whole window went white. When I right click on the screen under properties it tells me it is a Firefox document. I rebooted to fix the problem and I saw a brief view of my wallpaper and desktop icons then back to the white screen. When I boot up or log in to the admin account (guest account is fine) I get a pure white screen. I cannot access any thing including the task bar. The only way out is to reboot and the problem repeats. I have booted with my anti virus program and it finds no problems. When I exit the anti virus program there is the brief view of the desktop and back to the white screen. HELP, I don't want to lose everything because I have to reload the OS.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.

  • Firefox doesn't allow me to email a webpage by right-clicking anymore - Why?

    I used to be able to right-click on a webpage, and email the page. Then, something changed, and when I right-clicked, that option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, hover over a main category that then offered me two options, once of which was emailing the webpage through Yahoo. When I did that, the email would fill with the link, but a lot of junk about Yahoo, too.
    Now, when I right-click just two weeks later, option is completely gone. So, now, I cannot email a webpage just be right-clicking. I have to copy the link, open an email, and paste the link. What happened, and can I get back?

    hello cera78, mozilla does clean up its user interface from time to time. user interface studies have shown that this context menu entry is only used by <1% of the users.
    if you've liked the functionality you could use an addon to recover it: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/send-link-in-context-menu/

  • How to do right click in a form

    How do one find out from a form where its using the right click property??? If I want to create a new form and give that form the right-click advantage, how do I do it??
    Please Advise.
    Thanks

    In a When-Mouse-Click Trigger, put this code:
    DECLARE
         the_button_pressed VARCHAR(1);
    BEGIN
         the_button_pressed := :System.Mouse_Button_Pressed;
         IF the_button_pressed = '3' THEN
              Message('Right Click');
              Message('Right Click');
         END IF;
    END;
    /* 3 = right click */

  • I can't right-click the Outlook 2010 icon on Win7 desktop taskbar and make a new task, appt, contact, email, nothing...Help

    I need help figuring out what happened to the Outlook 2010 icon on my Windows 7 desktop taskbar ribbon.
    I keep it at the bottom of my desktop screen. I used to be able to right-click the Outlook icon and I could see options for: New Email Message; New Appointment; New Meeting; New Contact; New Task. I see the options, but it does not create a new anything
    when I click on one of those options. It does nothing. I have even right-clicked on one of the options and there is a window that opens saying, "Open." I click it and still nothing.  Did I click or unclick an option somewhere under properties
    that took that time-saving tool from my choices?

    Hi,
    Please right click on the Outlook icon in the taskbar, click Unpin this program from taskbar.
    Then go to Control Panel, repair Office in Programs and Features.
    Start Outlook again, right click on the Outlook icon in the taskbar, choose
    Pin this program to taskbar.
    If this issue persists, please try the same feature for other programs to determine if it's an Outlook specific issue or Windows Client issue.

  • When I try to right click "Save As" on photos in my yahoo email, I only get the option of saving as a secure download firefox document. How can I save the photo as it is intended (jpeg, png) ?

    If someone includes a photo in the email body message (I use yahoo), if I right click on the image to save it to my computer, I only get the option to save it as a firefox document - secure download. If I save it as such and then click on the link, it takes me to a page full of weird code.
    Please advise. I would like to be able to right click on the photo as save the image to my computer.

    If Firefox doesn't saves the image with a valid image file extension like .jpg or .png then you need to add that file extensions yourself. You can rename already saved images and change the file extension to get working images. Add quotes around the name while renaming ("image.jpg") if Windows hides the current file extension or refuses to change the name (i.e you get image.jpg.html).
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Screen Sharing and Right Clicking

    When Screen Sharing to a Windows PC, has anyone managed to right click in Windows without using a two button mouse?

    Thank you I have looked for days for how to do this. I used ctrl-shift then F10 (No fn) I wonder if there is a way to make a shortcut key to do this with one available fkey?
