Problem with Replying, Relaying or Forwarding E-mails with Attachments

This just started happening recently. I don't recall exactly when. Best guess is within the last week or so.
When I try to reply to, relay or forward an e-mail (in Mail.app) that has an attachment, only the attachment shows up in the new e-mail edit window. All the text from the original email gets wiped out. It's as if I had highlighted the attachment. I've made sure, not to.
But, it get weirder... If I do highlight the original text, it does show up in the new e-mail (minus the attachment). Further, mail won't let me highlight both the text and the attachment. Just one or the other. And, it won't let me highlight any previous indented email trails at all (as it will for emails that don't have attachments).
This is not only annoying, but darn strange!
Everything is at the latest update levels. Nothing else has been acting strangely that I've noticed.
Any help would be much appreciated.
TIA

Kudos! That was exactly the problem.
I guess I would have eventually put two and two together. My apologies for not mentioning the Safari 3 Beta, though.
Thanks much.
Should we be expecting an updated version for the Safari 3 Beta? I assume Apple is aware of this issue. I think I'll be letting somebody else play the guinea-pig next time around.

Unfortunately in a "forwarded" message that "select the size" is not present in the lower right corner.
You can try attachment tamer and see if that helps in your situation.

Forwarding e-mail with pictures

Whenever I forward an e-mail with pictures, the person I send it to does not see the picture.
How can I fix this?

I had that problem when I used the old Verizon E mail. Since switching to the new version, the problem does not exist. This is one of the reasons I prefer the new version. Why don't you try it and see if that solves the problem for you. the problem.

HT1386 All of a sudden when I forward a mail with an attachment the attachment does not appear in the message can you tell me why and how to correct it.

All of a sudden I can not forward mail with an attachment. Anybody have any suggestions.

When you tap on the arrow in the upper right corner and select - Forward - doesn't another window popup that says Include/Don't Include? That is in reference to the attachment. Select Include from that window.
Sorry, didn't realize that my photo editing "skills" would produce the giant size screenshot!

Used to be able to forward E-mails with attachments until I updated to 4.3.5 can't now. When received, attachment shows as ?

I paid for Quick Office Pro HD so I could amend spreadsheets (works well) and E-mail word documents. Because Quick Office shows the sender as Quick Office, I used to forward the attachment in Mail so it also comes up in the sent documents. Now I have updated to 4.3.5, forwarding an E-mail with a word attachment does'nt work. It shows as a small icon in the message and all the recipient sees is a ? That can't be opened.
I hope OS 5 let's me send word docs straight from Dropbox.

Hello and welcome to the Discussions.
If you are using Rich Text Format to compose, and if you have two or more different fonts, then Mail 2.x will convert the RTF to HTML, and this in turn may trigger some SPAM filters, which then block the message.
Test sending with Plain Text, report whether the same thing happens. Many people do not understand the SPAM filters their ISP or mail server provider has in place, and thus may not know what messages are filtered out.
Btw, a Signature can be the source for there being multiple fonts in use.

Attachment disappear when forwarding a mail with attachment in a rule

Could anyone verify my problem please?
I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and Mail 6.1
I have a rule set up in Mail to forward certain messages.
However, since the upgrade, all messages being forwarded has all attachments striped.
It appears that the problem occurs only when forward is being used by a rule.
When I forward the same message manually, the attachment is sent as well.
Am I missing something?
Many thanks in advance.

Update:
Found the answer last night.
Forward mail in a rule behaves differently since OS X Lion from previous versions.
Forward mail set in a Rule would not forward any attachments in the original email.
If forwarding with attachments is required, use redirect in the Rule instead. (However,
you cannot append any message when using redirect)

User "null" with comcast SMTP, can't send mail with Mail 3.1

it was kind of off and on, now seems permanent. When sending mail via comcast SMTP, the following error is returned: P*lease enter the password for user “(null)” on SMTP server “smtp.comcast.net”*
The mystery is how user got to be "null". Deleting the account and redoing it doesn't help. Changing port to 25 and 587 don't work. I get mail fine, just can't send. Yes, my user name is actually filled in on the accounts page. Gmail works fine...
Thanks

wierd...
blanked out my username, but Mail insists on having a username. So on a lark I put back my username with the @comcast.net domain and it worked (one test message anyway). I left the password filled in 'cuz I hate having to fill my password in every time.
So thanks for joggling the idea bank!

Problem in reaching my e-mail with iMac on Hotmail (sympatico)

Her is my problem
I have many computers Mac and Thinkpad... but I still use my iMac OS9.2 and recently, my internet server, Sympatico, told me that I could not reach my e-mail without changing browser to Mozilla...
I don't know if it's worth the trouble just for an e-mail problem since I can get my e-mail with my other computers... But I find this anoying, insulting even...
All my other computers are using MozillaFirefox... Exept my PowerBook which is using Safari...
Is there an easy way to get Mozilla on my iMac OS9.2... I don't want to change my desk and having to rebuild it... The solution should be an easy one: downloading Mozilla like I did with my other computers(wich are all recent models 2007)... I don't know much about computers... so the solution has to be easy... Although I have friends that could help me understand any suggestion that I would receive here... If anything received is to complicated for me I would ask a friend to do it... if its worth the troublelike I said just for an e-mail reaching problem!
Thanks for any suport... or encouragement...or friendly Aple user reconfort!
How is it possible that all of a sudden a working computer cannot reach an e-mail... I was mad at my server wich is Bell-Sympatico and I told them I was going to cancel my subscription... But then I calmed down and tought that it would be stupid to do that just for an e-mail problem since I can go on internet with that iMac... Anyway, if any of you guys know ans easy solution for downloading a working version of Mozilla let me know... or any other way of gettin that iMac to reach my e-mail: [email protected]

Problem in Replying to Email

I have a pay as you go account
When I receive emails and attempt to reply I often get the following message:
"Cannot verify server identity
Details: Local Host – not trusted
Country Name: GB
State or Province name: Someprovince
Locality Name: sometown"
How do I deal with this?

I have similar problems when I try and forward an email with a .jpg attachment. No-one receiving that forward can read the .jpg as it is distorted.
One other problem i have is sometimes when i reply to an email received, the PC user receiving the email receives a mail just containing wingdings and other symbols instead of my text.]A further problem is that sometimes I get an email from a PC user and the body of the email is blank - no text can be seen. If I forward it to a PC I still cannot see the text, but if I receive the original mail on a PC it is fine and the text is all there. So the Mac (Mail) must be wiping out the text?
Any ideas on what settings I need to change?

How to send a mail with rich text content like using outlook

Hi All. I have a serious problem. When we send the mail from
outlook express or yahoo, we can send the mail with the text appearing
in the mail with bold font , with different colors, underlined etc.
If i type this kind of text in any word processor and mail that content through java mail then the message should be received by the recepient with all that bold,color and underlines etc as it is. Can anybody please help me in this case ASAP.

Go to this site and download the htmlArea Javascripts. Embedd them in your HTML and it will turn your normal HTML Text Area into Rich Text Area. Your real code will include all HTML tags. For example if you select some text and make it bold , the real HTML output will look like <B>YOUR TEXT </B>. So i guess your recipient should be able to receive HTML contents.
