Outlook New Message Window from Javascript

Hi,
From a hyperlink, i can bring up a new mail message window by simply using the <mailto> tag.
What if i wanna do the same thing on click of a button....
onclick event can be handled in javascript but how can we invoke a tag from there ???

document.location="mailto:[email protected],[email protected]?cc=[email protected],[email protected]&bcc=[email protected]&subject=stuff";
mailto:ADDR[?[cc=ADDR][&bcc=ADDR][&subject=subject_text]]
where ADDR is a single email address or a comma-separated list of addresses.

Cannot disable "New Message" window from popping up

Each time I click the Messages icon in my dock, immediately the "New Message" window pops up. However, I may not necessarily want to compose a new message; most of the time, I just want to view my buddy list to see who's online. It becomes rather annoying to have to close the "New Message" window every single time. Does anyone know how to disable this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
It cannot be Disabled as such.
Click and Hold the DOCK icon and then choose "Show All Windows"
This then displays all the windows like when you Quit.
You can select the Messages window or Buddy list
The Message Window does not set up New Message this way.
You will notice in the DOCK menu that "New Message" is the default action.

Open Outlook New Email window from WebDynpro

Hi All,
Is there a way to open an outlook window from webdynpro apart from using <Mailto:> URLs.
The Mailto URLs doesn't hold good for our requirement as it has URL Length limitation (2083 characters).
OLE seems to be not working with Webdynpro. It requires SAP GUI.
So please let me know if there is any other way. It is an urgent requirement and any help in this regard is highly helpful.
Thanks,
Anand

Hi!
Why do you have problems with the 2083 character limitation of URL names?
The following URL has a length of 278 characters:
mailto:[email protected]omain-name.com?subject=very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-very-long-subject
If you want to send long mails with subject and body and so on an alternative may be for you not directly to start outlook, but giving the user a form where he can edit a long email and if he/she presses the send button, this email goes through the SAP WebAS ABAP to the Mail Server of the company. The so-called SMTP-Plug-In in SAP WebAS ABAP enables you to send (and receive) mails from an SAP ABAP system to the company's email server and vice versa.
May this be a solution for your problem?
Regards,
Volker

Mail "New Message" window retreats to background after drag and drop attachment from Finder to Mail "New Message", click, and Finder window stays in foreground even when not in focus

Hi, I'm surprised I can't quickly find if anyone else is having this issue. For me it has been going on since Lion on my 13" MacBook Pro 2011 and it's still persisting in Mavericks, and even still now that I've "downgraded" to a 15" MacBook Pro 2010 with Mavericks. The behavior is odd and difficult to explain concisely. Basically, when I want to add an attachment to Mail, I'll Cmd+Tab over to Finder click and drag and Cmd+Tab back to Mail, and drop the attachment. At first it looks fine, but when I click in the New Message window where I just dropped the attachment, to move the cursor, it retreats to the background and the Mail Main Window comes to the foreground. Then, if I click on that, the Finder window that I just used comes to the foreground. Sometimes if I switched to another app before going to Finder to select the drag and drop, that other app window will appear in the foreground instead. If I click on the other app window that is now in the foreground, then the Finder window that was last used will come to the foreground. The only thing that seems to fix this switch-a-roo effect is Cmd+Tab-ing back and forth a few times, or click on the window "frame" at the top to move the window around.
The way to prevent this is to have my Mail Message window visible in the foreground side by side with the Finder window when the drag and drop occurs (this is a tedious extra step if mulitple windows are open, or to use the add attachment command in the menu within Mail. But it sure is annoying buggy behavior.
Thanks

Yep, I get exactly the same thing when using Thunderbird mail client on my 2011 iMac running Lion. I've been putting up with it for at least a year, maybe longer.
For me it appeared to start after a Thunderbird update, so I figured that was the cause and couldn't find a solution at the time. However I've now noticed it starting to happen in Apple Motion 4 when dragging files from Finder into a DropZone in my animations. Motion remains the active program but the Finder window sits on top until I Cmd-tab out to a third open program (ie not Finder) and back to Motion again.
This is the first indicator I've had that it's an OS X issue.
Be great to find a solution as D&D is by far my preferred way of adding attachments to emails and similar tasks.

How to delete account from list of senders in new message window

Hello. I would like to know how to remove a particular email account from the list that is available in a new message window in the "Account" field (right below subject field) which lists email addresses of the sender. I deleted one of my email accounts from Mail but the email address for it still shows up there as an option and is in fact the default option each time because it was my main choice before I deleted the account from Mail. Now I have to change this each time I send a message and it is getting annoying, but I don't know how to get rid of the old address from the list. Anyone?

mikate,
Open Mail>Preferences...>Composing>Addressing: Send new mail from: (Choose the correct address).
If that is unsuccessful, also open Address Book and then check the card with your name in the "Name" column. If the old address is listed in that "Me" card, click the edit button and remove it.
In order to improve your chances of getting a solution to your problem it would be helpful if you supplied additional details about your operating system, and hardware configuration in "My Settings."

Clicking email-links doesn't open "new message" window

Hi,
When I click email links, safari doesn't take me to the "new message" window. It activates safari: the program comes on in the dock and the text next to the apple logo changes to "mail", but I don't get the "new message" window

You're welcome. Glad to have helped.

Mail won't show new message windows

This is weird.
I needed to email a photo to a friend. I drug the photo from iPhoto to the Mail icon in the dock and nothing happened (a new message window didn't pop up with the photo attached) I tried this 3 times and still got nothing. I swiped to another desktop (in Lion) and i could see the new message windows, all three of them, with the picture. When I landed on a space they disappeaered again. When I swipe to a new space they appear and then disappear when I land on that space.
I've shut mail down but haven't done a full restart. Any other ideas why this didn't work and then now how do I fix my problem?
Thanks…
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about…I don't know why it's upside down?!

I've never seen anything like this reported before. Verify/repair your disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
If the problem persists, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that the Console application displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. Try to reproduce the problem, and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that could have been written there as a result. Do you see anything that could provide a clue as to what's going on?
Now, try this:
1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there. Does the problem happen there as well?

How can I see my jabber buddy list as a default and not a new message window on my message app??

I recently got my OS reinstalled and since then I had a multitude of issues.
1) my texts kept showing up on my macbook pro so I took my cell number off the preferences on messages on macbook. Can I still have people facetime me using my cell phone number?
2) I do see my jabber buddy list when I click on the message center as a default. I keep getting the new message window, can i set a default that when i click on it I see who is online vs. having to go to windows and select buddy list all the time??
3) what is bonjour and why would i want to use it?

Hi,
Re 1)
The settings for Messages > iMessages are separate from the FaceTime ones on both Mac and iOS devices.
Re 2)
If you have a Jabber (Google or Facebook Chats included) ID in Messages > Preferences > Accounts you can go to the Window Menu and display them.
By default they are a combined list (Any AIM, Jabber, Yahoo or Bonjour account that is logged in)
In the Preference > General section you can untick the item that gathers them into one list to show them separately.
They also appear in the Window Menu separately with their open CMD + # keystrokes.
Once you have them On show quit the app that way.
It will "Remember" that they were on Show the next time you open the app.
Re 3)
Bonjour is a process on the Mac that "sees" all other Macs on your LAN and shows them in the Side bar of the Finder window as "automatic" Shares.
In iChat and Messages it is an included account that cannot be deleted
If Enabled it can have it's own Buddy List (see 2) )
It shows the Names of the peopel singed in on the other Macs on your LAN that are also using iChat or Messages with the Bonjour Account Enabled.
The name is taken from the My Card in the Address Book or Contacts app.
The My Card should have the Mac User's details (you on Your computer when Logged in) and a head and Shoulders icon.
I have three computers
One is running iChat 4.x.x and on that machine (running Leopard) the My Card calls me Ralph G4 as it is running on G4 tower.
My Laptop has me as Ralph MacBook Pro
This iMac I am posting from has the My Card of Ralph Johns
On this computer if I have iChat running on the other I see Ralph G4 and Ralph MacBook Pro as "Buddies"
It can do everything that the AIM and Jabber logins can do.
Text Chat, Audio Only Chat, Video Chat, Screen Sharing, File Transfers etc.

Mail can't create a new message window ...?

Hi,
Mail.app on my machine has been having a strange issue the past few days. Twice now, it has lost the ability to create a new message editing window.
If I click the new message button, or select "New Message" from the file menu, or click the "Reply" button on an existing message, etc. but no new message window ever appears. Quitting Mail.app and restarting, all the new message windows suddenly appear and everything is fine again ... until the next time.
Anyone else ever had Mail.app lose the ability to create new message editing windows like this?
Machine: Powerbook G4 15" (Oct 2005, 1.67GHz)
OS: 10.5.8
Mail: 3.6 (936)
All software updates applied
Thanks!

Address book missing in New Message Window

Although I can append the Address Book icon to the toolbar in the main Mail window, this is not acessable from the New Message Window. I have several email accounts and prefer to not use the auto-complete tool in Mail. However, I'd rather not have to enter the email address manually. In Snow Leopard, I could search the addressbook directly from the new message window.
How do I add address to the "To Field" from my address book once a new message is created besides drag and drop from Address Book app?

Hi.
You can add the contact to Address Book once you have sent the message. Go to Sent, select the message, and when you see it on the preview pane, in the "To" field, click and hold on the address you want to add, and select "Add to Address Book" from the drop down menu.
Good Luck.

When starting up Mail 7.3 does not provide a New Message window

When starting up Mail 7.3 does not provide a New Message window as it always used to? Have I inadvertently turned something off?

OOPs! My mistake; I meant New Viewer Window!
The problem is that if I close the Mail window but leave Mail running in the background, the next time I click on Mail in the Dock, I do NOT get the New Viewer Window, just the Mail Menu on the Menu Bar. If I Quit Mail in that state and then start it up from the Dock, I also get on the Mail Menu.
If, however, I Quit Mail when the Viewer Window is open, it will open up again with the New Viewer Window visible.
In the past, I got the New Viewer Window whenever I clicked Mail in the Dock.
Changing settings in System Preferences / General doesn't make any difference.
Not a huge problem, just an annoyance. Ran Permissions Repair; no change in the issue.
Thanks for your response / attempt to help. Sorry again for the mistaken Window name.

Open new browser window from a JApplet

Hi,
I want to open a new browser window from a JApplet.My first thought was to use the Live Connect technology but it worked only with simple applets not with JApplets.Then i tried it by getting the Applet context (getAppletContext() method) but it still didn't work with JApplet...(it worked with Applet).I believe it has something to do with the applet security but i haven't yet figured it out.
For example when i call the getAppletContext() method from a JApplet i get an java.security.AccessControlException ... .Thanks

I must correct myself now :).
The getAppletContext() method does work with JApplets too.Still , i have problems with the Live connection alternative.It seems that it by importing the netscape.javascript package i get the security eror that i mention above...

How can I open a new browser window from UIX?

I need to open a new browser window from an event handler. How that can be done? HELP!
Thanks!
Martin Patrici

HTML doesn't really let you do this on the server side; the client is in charge
of creating new windows, not the server.
If you know that clicking a certain link/button, etc. will always raise a new window,
then you should use Javascript or "targetFrame" accordingly.
If the decision will only be made on the server side, then you could reload the current
window, only this time use an "onLoad" on the <body> to raise a window.

HT5361 i can't resize the new message window in mac mail.

I have OS X 10.9.1 and a MacBook Air.
When i open a new message window to type an email. It opens up as big as full screen or bigger. When I try to resize the window it won't allow me to make it any smaller.
Can anyone help?

Another quick follow-up. I have several email accounts set up within Mail and have the "Bcc" field set up so I automatically get a copy of my emails in the account from which I send the message. Setting the "Bcc" to one of my accounts triggers a jump to a large message viewer window that won't resize. Then deleting that "Bcc" listing from the message doesn't fix the problem. I have to go back to a copy of the message I've sent to myself and again click the forward icon to get a window I can resize. This problem doesn't seem to occur if I paste the offending account into the "To" field of he message, only the "Bcc' field. Go figure!

Recurring New Message Window opens in Mail

When I send a new message, another "New Message" window launches automatically. I can't figure out how to stop this from happening. There are currently no rules turned on and I'm only using on mailbox/account. Can anyone help me out?

Have you tried creating a new User Account and setting up Mail to work there to see if the problem manifests there as well? That would be an indicator of where the problem lies.
You can also try:
1. Quit Mail if it's running
2. Go to Home/Library/Preferences and removing the com.apple.mail.plist file.
3. Restart Mail and enter your account information again; Mail will automagically find your existing mailboxes. Then check to see if the problem remains.
