Question marks in email.

When I send email using the rich text setting, the receiving party sees "?" marks at the end of every line. Any ideas?

  • Question Marks Throughout Emails?

    When people receive my emails they are full of question marks; but when I'm writing the emails there are no question marks. Is this happening to anyone else? Any ideas why or how I can stop it please? I'm running Tiger 10.4.9. on MacBook Pro. Budgie

    More than likely the people reporting this problem are Windows users that use Outlook as their email client and you are using RTF for message composition.
    Using Plain Text instead should resolve it. Since the same does not occur with all email clients when using RTF with Mail - primarily with Outlook, this is more of an Outlook problem than a Mail problem. There aren't any email clients that are completely bug free but for such an old/mature email client, Outlook has it's share.

  • Question marks in emails sent from mac mail client

    When I send emails the recipient receives my emails with question marks scattered throughout the message. Not sure why this is happening. I can not find anything on the help site about out going encoding issues, only inbound issues.
    thanks for your help

  • Question marks in email replies ??

    I am having a problem with "?" showing up in email that I send to people on PC's
    as shown below .. a typical reply
    I did not put any of these in when I wrote the email but they show up at the other end and when they reply to me .... sometimes inside a "black diamond'
    Waht is this and why ???
    yours Tim
    example below..
    We are coming through the West Coast on the 7th of June on our way back to Nelson from a road trip down south and want to visit some friends in?Dunollie but they don't have a spare room?
    So we need a place to stay that is close by .??
    We will be traveling with our 7?year old wire haired fox terrier who is cage trained and very easy care.
    We?are looking?for? accommodation for at least 1 night.
    Thanks? Tim

    This is usually caused by Win Outlook and the easiest
    fix is probably to use Plain Text instead of Rich
    Text. For more info, see this note:

    Thanks for that .... seems silly that computers don't talk together

  • My emails are received with inexplicable question marks for spaces

    My emails are received with inexplicable question marks for spaces. This seems to only happen on some computers. Help!
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    I was looking over the help that you gave about the question marks in email responces, and wondered if you knew anything about fractions in the mail info.
    When I get mail on my power book, the information as to whom it from and date etc. is all fractions. This is also happening in my address book. I've tried changing fonts to see it that was the problem and it hasn't seemed to work. Any other ideas?

  • Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display.  There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark.  How can I go back to attached images?

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display.  There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark.  Double clicking on the box will open the image in a separate window.  It's very slow and tedious for multiple images.  How can I go back to attached and displayed  images?  If I click on "Forward", the images appear instantly in the email to be forwarded.

    Scott,
    My problem seemed to fix itself.  Or, by shutting down the computer one night, instead of putting it to sleep, may have reset something.  Since updating to Mavericks, I always (or usually) let the computer sleep overnight or anytime I'm walking away from it.  A few days ago, I was updating notes for my kids about how to find all my stuff and how to turn on my computer, so I wanted to rewrite the start-up procedures for the iMac, just in case they ever need to.  Well, I shut it down one night so the following morning, I could write down each step.  Lo and behold, the images, etc. are all there again!  Solved, but I'm not sure why.

  • Upgraded to ios6 on my iphone 3gs and email is not displaying images. It has a blue box with a blue question mark inside

    I just upgraded to ios 6 on my iphone 3gs and I noticed on a couple of incoming emails that the images and information are not being displayed. There is a blue square box with a blue question mark inside. I already tried to press the home key and power key to restart. The email still does not display correctly. I went on my laptop to retrieve that same email and I was able to see the graphics and information, so the problem is on the iphone. I received two emails like this, so I'm missing all the important information. I also tried to retrieve my email through the internet browser and I still have the same problem. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    I forgot to mention that I have an Ipad 2 also and I can view the email information on there also. I received an email from Party city and it said to click here to print out the coupon. So I click the coupon and there is the little blue box with the question mark. This is the first time I've seen this happen, as I have printed out the coupons before. Maybe it has to do with the IOS6 update, because this just started to happen right after the update.

  • Why do some of my emails have blue squares with a question mark instead of a picture or bar code?

    Why do some of my emails have blue squares with a question mark instead of a picture or bar code?

    No app installed that will view the pics and bar codes.  
    Which email client are you using?  Which version? 
    File suffix of the pics & bar codes?  Example:  .pic, .bmp, .jpg, etc. 

  • IPhoto email shows question mark instead of email template

    I sent some photos using iPhoto last night, i have gmail account i use to send photos. I learned after i had emailed the photos through iPhoto my receipts received the email with a question mark instead of the iPhoto template. I tried sending a couple to myself and my wife (she has hotmail if it matters) but all of them showed the question mark i attached a photo below. Any help in fixing this would be great.
    Thanks

    probably not right format....
    i think that the iphone only supports .jpg or whatever but i am not 100% on that

  • Question mark around names received in Delegate email -- Outlook 2011

    Looking for some guidance... Office for Mac 2011 / Outlook / 14.2.4 / Exchange 2010 SP1
    Just installed Update Rollup 7 v2 last weekend.
    Yesterday, a client called me to say that Outlook was reporting database corruption. I ask her to choose the option to rebuild since relaunching Outlook 2011 brought her back to same screen. The rebuild seemed to complete successfully and she used Outlook
    the rest of the day.
    This morning I came in to her office on an unrelated matter and she reported that she had a couple of items stuck in her outbox. I looked at them and, to make a long story short, found that the following is happening.
    For this story:
    * Steve delegates to Jo the ability to accept/decline meetings on his behalf.
    * Jo, naturally, gets a copy of all meeting requests. 
    * Outlook 2011 is set up so that Jo is listed as a delegate for Steve.
    Reproducible Steps:
    1. I send a meeting request to Steve's email address. My email address is at a completely different FQDN.
    2. Jo gets a copy of that meeting request.
    3. If Jo opens up the meeting request email in Steve's inbox, the To: field shows "Lastname, Steve" which is how the display name is set on the Exchange server.
    4. If Jo opens the meeting request and looks at the To: field in Outlook 2011 in HER inbox, the name shows as "Lastname; Steve;". Both names are highlighted in orange with a white question mark. Hover over the names shows an "Unknown" presence. Opening the
    contact for "Lastname" shows a completely different Exchange user. Opening the contact for "Steve" doesn't do anything.
    5. If Jo makes accepts or declines the invitation in HER inbox, the message gets stuck in the outbox and the Outlook logs an HTTP 500 error for every mail send attempt.
    What I've attempted to resolve the problem:
    1. Deleted, created, rebuilt the various identities on the Mac.
    2. Changing the Directory Lookup URL within Outlook 2011 to the https:// FQDN. 
    3. Followed instructions found elsewhere to delete the Mac-equivalent OAB and attempted redownload of the OAB. Searching for names in the company directory seems to work fine.
    4. Created a new Mac user and tested from there. (Same issue.)
    5. Followed instructions (here) to completely remove Office and reinstall. (Although I must have missed something because Jo's open windows and position were retained.)
    6. Set up a new Exchange account before and after reinstall and before and after installation of latest Office 2011 updates. (The download of Office 2011 available to me is Post-SP2. I understand that some folks on this forum have had to go back to a version
    somewhere between SP1 and SP2. I cannot test this, at least right now.)
    Other bits of information:
    * The Exchange server (2010 inside SBS 2011) is not on-premises. This is a satellite office. Mac and PC Outlooks are configured to use Outlook Anywhere.
    * MCRA tests are successful.
    * I have tested on another Mac running Outlook 2011 14.2.1. Same problem.
    * I have tested another user who is also a Delegate. The other person doesn't use a Mac, but when I set her up in Outlook 2011 14.2.1, she has the same issue.
    * Mac is running Mountain Lion, 10.8.2. The Mac is about two weeks old.
    * I do not know that any of our other Mac users are experiencing anything similar, although I think that none of them are Delegates.
    * Mails directly from Steve to Jo show the proper name within the To: field
    * I have not tested setting up an auto-forward from Steve to Jo's mailbox, sending mail to Steve, and seeing what the To: field shows in Jo's copy. (Might be interesting.)
    * If Jo accepts/declines appointments from within Steve's Inbox directly, those acceptances and declines transmit successfully.
    The most disheartening thing about all of this is that I see that other people are having the problem. Some of you have contributed to
    a fairly large thread about it the Answers forum. However that is literally ALL of the information I can find in my searching. (The Answers guys asked me to post here.)
    At the moment, I have a workaround in that Jo can accept/decline directly from Steve's inbox. 
    Any help -- any -- even new career thoughts are appreciated!!

    Simon,
    Here's an update:
    I opened up a case with Microsoft PSS.
    After speaking to the SBS team for a few days -- and they did a stellar job, in my opinion -- the tech suggested we speak to the Outlook for Mac team, just in case there was something there. The OFM team had one request:
    Remove Jo from "Full Access" Exchange permissions on Steve's account.
    Boom. That did it. Outlook 2011 (Mac) accepts/declines work fine now.
    According to the OFM team, FA and Delegation permissions can conflict with one another over EWS. They have admitted that they are not doing a root-cause analysis. Perhaps, I can request that. However, I am pretty
    pleased and relieved that I didn't have to rebuild mailboxes or something just as onerous. 

  • Blue icon with question mark instead of image in email

    Sometimes I get a blue icon with question mark instead of image in email, when viewing in Apple Mail Program.
    Does anyone know why?????

    I'm asking your thread get redirected to the proper forum. Please read this tip on how to post on Discussions for future threads:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1574700
    Is this issue with Tiger or Leopard? Your profile indicates you have a machine with Tiger, yet your signature of your post says you have Leopard.
    Also, there is no such thing as a Powerbook Pro. Read the text under the screen to tell us exactly which model you have. MacBook Pro is the name given to Macs that are for the pro lineup of notebooks once Apple shifted to the Intel CPU.

  • How do I get rid of the question marks in my emails

    I run a business on my computer & I have serveral people tell me that when they get my emails, it has a lot of question marks all thoughout the message.
    sometimes other symbols as well. It makes me look as if I am really confused when I am sending my emails to my team.
    Can anyone tell me how to fix it?
    Also some say my attachments do not come with my emails???

    It sounds like maybe you are using a text encoding that your team's email clients cant understand.
    If you go to the Message menu, and select "Text Encoding" down at the bottom of the menu, you should get a long list of encodings.
    Set it to "Automatic", if its not already, and see if that helps.
    If it does not, try some of the encodings that start with "Western". "Western (Windows Latin 1)" may be a good choice if most of the people on your team use Outlook on Windows. Try "Unicode" down at the bottom if nothing else works. If none of these help, set it back to "Automatic".
    Im assuming (because of your Texas location) that your team members are here in the states. If not, if they are, say in Japan, China, Korea, Russia, etc., then one of the other encodings on the menu may help.

  • Chinese characters in outgoing emails become question marks

    Hi, all. My AT&T Blackberry Curve 8900 loaded with the AT&T East-asian rom can read and write Chinese, in IM, email, webpages. There is only one problem with the outgoing emails. I can compose an Email in Chinese and send it. The email is displayed correctly on my phone, but when shown up in the receiving email-box, all chinese characters will become question marks.
    I am using Hotmail - I don't know whether this is some problem with the server.
    Thank you in advance.
