Received emails with embedded .jpg

I updated to Leopard and when I receive mail with embedded .jpg attachments the location of the attachment is generally shown as a small square with a question mark in it in the body of the email. The attachments are there but they are clustered at the bottom of the email instead of in the locations they should be.
Is there a setting somewhere that I am overlooking?

Could Apple have recently increased its security to block unwanted SPAM, and now my computer thinks this email is SPAM?

When I forward an HTML email with embedded graphics to someone, it forwards it as plain text.. this is driving me batty.. how do I forward such mails INTACT??

I have the latest Thunderbird installed on a new 64-bit Winblows Eight netbook.. fantastic program, but one problem is driving me absolutely batty, and after using the latest Thunderbird for weeks, I simply can't figure out how to fix it..
I'm on a lot of mfr. and other kinds of mailing lists, like eBay watch list alerts, and so on.. these are not s p a m (although I get plenty of that.. who doesn't).. but lists I WANT to be on..
Many such emails from those mailing lists are in HTML format with embedded graphics.. I'm not talking about graphic file attachments, but embedded graphics which are coming from the senders' servers, and appear AS a graphic in the email.. sometimes such emails are one huge graphic with hardly any text.. all well and good..
However, here's the problem.. when I want to forward such an email to a friend, Thunderbird ALWAYS formats it as plain ASCII text.. I know this because I look in the "sent mail" folder, and can see that it has turned an HTML email with embedded graphics into plain ASCII text..
I absolutely can't figure out how to get it to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT, so the sender receives it looking the way it looks when I receive it from a mailing list, or an advertiser, or eBay, or whoever..
Is Thunderbird capable of forwarding an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT?.. If so, how / where do I turn on that capability?..
If the capability to do this isn't built into the program, is there an add-on I can install that will give it that ability?..
I am not new to computers.. but this really has me stumped.. I want to put Thunderbird on my 32-bit Vista laptop and stop using its horrible "Windoze Mail" program, which I've been using for years, and is slower than snot, and has all kinds of other problems..
So, assuming whoever reads this FULLY understands my question, PLEASE tell me how to get Thunderbird to have the ability to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics AS-IS, so the receiver(s) I forward it to see it exactly the way I see it when I receive it.. if that ability is built in, please tell me how to turn it on.. if that ability is not built-in, please tell me what add-on I need to install to give Thunderbird this capability.. if Thunderbird absolutely can't forward an HTML email with embedded graphics at all, please also tell me that..
A virtual box of candy and a dozen long-stemmed roses to anyone who can give me a solution that works..
Thanks..

Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
Thanks again..
Harv..

What causes all my emails with embedded media to always be downloaded with the media broken or removed? How do I solve it?

Whenever people send me emails with embedded videos or pictures, the email always comes in without the media. It will have just the empty box outline where it supposed to be with a tiny broken page icon in the top left-hand corner.
I can't seem to find the cause and the solution and this has been happening for a few years already. Does it have anything to do with my account still being POP and not IMAP? What are the possible reasons and their solutions? Please help, thank you.

I am not an expert in this area, but I think I might know what is going on. There is a difference between an 'embedded' picture and an 'attached' picture.
An embedded picture has a link to the actual picture. If the link is to a site which is not accessible (such as the sender's own computer) then you will get a broken link.
An attached picture is the actual picture file (.jpg, etc.) so you can always view it. If you check 'Display Attachments Inline', then when you scroll down through the email, the attachments will show up.
So, bottom line: If the sender embeds a picture, it needs to link to a publicly accessible URL. Otherwise, it needs to be attached.

How can I forward email with embedded photos?

How can I forward email with embedded photos so that the recipient gets them that way instead of all the text followed by all the photos?

Hello,
Thanks (or merci beaucoup). I am using Mail version 5.2 (1278) that came with the iMac (Mac OS X 10.7.4). When I forward the email to myself at my "me.com" email address from my "cox.net" email address, the photos come out as attachments even though they were embedded when I received the email on my cox.net email. What setting(s) can I make to have it get to me.com the way it was in cox.net, i.e. embedded instead of as attachments?

Updated my AppleID account info. Under password security shows an email address to be used to receive email with new password settings. I need to update that email address, how do I do that? Thanks!

Updated my AppleID account info. Under password security shows an email address to be used to receive email with new password settings. I need to update that email address, how do I do that? Thanks!

Thanks for the help Niel. I couldn't change the rescue email address (an address that no longer exists and is therefore useless) until I could correctly answer the security questions. After numerous guesses, finally got them right. Was then presented with the option to change the rescue email address. Guess the only other option was to have Apple Support make the change or reset my account info. Have made note of the correct answers so this won't happen again. Thanks for the fast response!!

Receive email with dots in body

I have a weird problem with BB8830. From time to time (most of the time received from a specific Domaine) I receive emails with all the dots in the email body, the email was sent by Exchange Server. The same email is well receive in my Outlook 2003 in plain English. If I forward that email from BB to someone else, then the receive person will read in Chinese caracters instead of the dots, in Outlook. Does anyone have same problem ? and any solution for that. By the way, my BB is using the latest OS and Desktop Manager from Bell Mobility.

Hi,
I think you misunderstood my problem. The email is in English and when I receive it on BB, all I see in the email body is black dots.If I forward this email to someone else and retrieve the email with Outlook, then chinese caracters apper in the message body. If I retrieve it with my Outlook, the email bosy message is readble and in English. I would think that the BB email server cannot somehow get the email properly, may be the email was sent with Outlook2007? or ... ??

Mail not receiving emails with attachments

Hi
I'd appreciate any suggestions in relation to the following.
My wife and I both run computers from the one account, Mail on her PowerBook logging in through my name and password. Until recently, we have had no problems at all. However, it has come to light that my wife has not been receiving emails with attachments for some time. To test this, my wife sent an email with an attachment to her home email address from work, and copied it to me. I received the email and the attachment on my PC; my wife's Mac did not receive the email. I then forwarded the email with the attachment to her computer; this was successful. This would suggest some problem with her Mail account on the Mac. However, the configuration has not been changed. Is it possible for it just to stop working for some reason?

I'm using a PC for my email at the moment. I'm not sure if all my wife's emails have been downloaded. However, Mail has made a Home/Mail/MessageUidsAlreadyDowloaded file. This was created when I sent an email to test what happened. I was unable to make Mail download all her emails, so I guess they must have gone from the server. She has a different email address to mine, but it's run from the same ISP account; as I said, she logs in, automatically, through Mail to her email. I have contacted the ISP about it, but they are unable to see any trace of emails that colleagues have sent my wife and which she sends home to herself. All of these files happen to have attachments, but I cannot see any setting of Mail which would account for them being rejected. Also, I can't be entiurely sure that only emails with attachments don't get through; there may be others, 'unattached'.
Thanks for your continued assistance.

HT201320 Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

Hi Nortarian,
The article below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for email on your iPad:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
Hope this helps ....

I receive emails with attached videos in TextEdit and cannot read them

I am receiving emails with attached videos or documents and when I click to open I get TextEdit back with a bunch of gobblygook of letters,numbers and symbols but no video or legible documents.

Hi rwebster. Please see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-mail_spam You can avoid directly opening the file:
# Download the attachment.
# Scan it at http://www.virustotal.com before opening.
# Open it by double-clicking it in your file browser.
If you trust the sender and still want to configure the browser to open the files directly without saving, then please see here: [[Managing file types]]

TS3276 receive email with .dat attachments

I have begun receiving emails with .dat files attached from my coworkers who use Outlook. Somehow, these files replace the attached files that my coworkers intended to send and Mail doesn't seem to be able to open/process them. I would really appreciate any advice on how to overcome this as I am starting to be pressured to give up my Mac.

.DAT files is a file has arbitrary data and is not associated with any one particular program or application. When you see a file with a .XLS extension, you know it’s referring to an Excel file, and so on. But with .DAT files, you have to figure out how to open it yourself and it may not be the same program each time.
The best way to open a .DAT file is to use the program that created it. You may want to ask the sender to send it in a different format, like .pdf.
Winmail.dat files come from those Microsoft Outlook or Exchange programs and are some sort of archive method. Somewhere in outlook they get automatically created when forwarding email messages and Mac users have long wondered what they are and how to open them. Of course Windows users have no idea what they are either and think it’s all the receivers issue when we say we never got an attachment.

Can't receive email with Mail 4.4 - but iPad does

Hi guys,
I have a strange problem with Mail 4.4: I have multiple email accounts that I manage through Mail - all work fine except my gmail account, which stopped receiving emails about a week ago. Here are some details:
1. The account constantly shows the "busy" icon (rotating circle) but Mail Activity window does not show anything.
2. I can send email from the account - but not receive any emails for this account with Mail.
3. I access the same account through my iPad and iPhone - both work perfectly fine (i.e. get all emails), it's just Mail that does not receive.
4. The Connection Doctor shows no errors - all lights are "green"
5. I can access the corresponding gmail account through Safari without problem - all incoming emails are shown correctly
6. The account is set up as IMAP
There is one occurrence that is probably related to the problem and could help with a solution:
1. Mail 4.4 created a new folder called "Recovered Messages" for the gmail account and started saving tons of messages in it - or copies of one message to be precise. This happened at the exact point in time when Mail stopped receiving emails for this account. The email in this folder is one that I attempted to sent, but never did: I composed it and dragged some attachments into the compose window. One of these - accidentally - turned out to be 25MB so I figured that email is too large and closed/deleted the email before sending it.
It now seems that mail is reloading this gigantic 25+MB email over and over again into the "Recovered Messages" folder. I tried to find that email in Drafts, Sent or Outbox folders but it is nowhere to be found - I have no idea from where Mail loads this over and over again.
Can you help? Many thanks in advance!

First time I can answer my own question
I did some more research and found a thread about the issue of large emails getting stuck and reloaded into Recovered Messages folder:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2153401
This one did the trick for me (posted by Miguel Lira):
If you're experiencing the "Recovered Messages" issue it may be related to offline processes that are failing when you open iMail. For me the fix was to open a terminal window and delete all the files in the following folder: ~/Library/Mail/[email protected]/.OfflineCache

Hi,
Workflow version is : 2.6.3.5
Apps Version is 11.5.10.1

Everything works fine when I check my notifications in the "workflow worklist"
i.e. Oracle Apps. <Notifications> tab.
but the emails are not going to the users and below message is displayed in the
status monitor. (eventhough it displays below error - I can able to respond the notifications using the worklist and can able to COMPLETE the workflow process
successfully)
Please help me to resolve the below error, so that the Same notification which I am able to see using the workflow worklist should be sent to the user in email as embedded text.

NOTE: there is no problem with the Package XXDB_OKC_CONTRACTS_WF_PKG, as it is not changed and I even verified it before and after this error that this package is indeed in VALID status.

Hi,
Below solution worked for us :
Whenever the document message related procedure is modified and compiled we need to STOP and START all the workflow related services,
Homepage -> Workflow Manager -> Service Components => STOP all Services => Start All Services
NOTE: Even when we bounced the database, application server the error is still occuring, only when we STOP and START the services whenever we compiled the document message procedures then the emails are getting processed.
The Metalink Forum note 588112.992 (ORA-04061: existing state of has been invalidated ORA-04061: existing state of package) is helpful in getting the solution Below is a snippet of the same :
From: David Hsu 01-Aug-05 20:06
Subject: Re : ORA-04061: existing state of has been invalidated ORA-04061:
existing state of package
Loren,
we had a similar ORA-04061 error when we tried to compile a Workflow package
after we modified it with new attributes. What we were told was that some
workflow process or listener is still "thinking" the package is invalid even
though it is valid. Whenever packages referred by the workflow process is
changed, the Agent listeners and mailer must be bounced. Worst case scenario
if the error still persist is that the database may have to be bounced as
well.
Please try bouncing the Agent listeners or, if it possible, bounce the
database and see if you are still getting the error after that.
The listeners that you need to bounce are all the listeners that you have
enabled under OAM > Workflow Manager > Service Components,
including the Workflow Notification Mailer.
Hope this helps thanks,
Shashi

Can't receive emails with Sympatico

I have 2 email accounts with Bell Sympatico. The owner account is functioning fine; the 2ndary account no longer can receive email, but can still send. I get a message saying
"the POP server POP6.sympatico.ca"rejected the password for 'b1...' please re-enter your password or cancel."
I can still send emails, and interestingly, I can access the mail from this particular account with the webmail at Sympatico/MSN. I have changed NO settings; all I did Monday was to upgrade from the old 'getEmail' to the new one with more storage (MSN/Sympatico). I've tried POP1, POP2, POP3, you get the idea. Nothing. tried their other suggestion of:
8. Under My incoming mail (POP3) server, type in : pophm.sympatico.ca
9. Under My outgoing mail (SMTP) server, type in : smtphm.sympatico.ca
(In spite of me making it painfully clear I was on a Mac with Apple Mail, I got suggestions for Outlook, etc...) sigh
I've talked to sympatico on the phone (from India...)tried their suggestion. Nothing. Should I delete the account and re-create it?
I am tearing my hair out. Yes, there is that clumsy webmail workaround, but I want things to work properly, and the Sympatico worker bees are 8000 miles away...Suggestions?

I know that Sympatico have 2 type of e-mails:
the "old ones" that have the same settings since Sympatico started 10 years ago. Here are the information would need to setup your Symaptico e-mail in Mail:
Username: b1**##
Password: access password
Incoming mail (POP3): pop6.sympatico.ca
Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtp1.sympatico.ca
Port server 25 for Outgoing (SMTP)
Port server 110 for Incoming (POP3)
The other Sympatico e-mail is the enhance one with MSN. The settings are differents and the authentification is different. Any new Sympatico accounts since June 2004 are on that new plaform. Here are the information would need to setup Mail:
Username: [email protected]
Password: e-mail password
Incoming mail (POP3): pophm.sympatico.ca
Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtphm.sympatico.ca
Verify that your server is set to requires anthentiation with agin your Sympatico e-mail and Sympatico password;
Both servers, Outgoing and Incoming, require a secure connection (SSL)
If you are not sure witch is what try to login online at: http://www.sympaticomail.sympatico.ca it will tell you if can upgrade to new enhance e-mail or if you sign in like a Hotmail account if you are already enhance.
I hope this help....
Cheers

Can't receive email with large attachment. why?

A friend sends an email to me with a large attachment. It is rejected and he gets the following response.
{edited for privacy}:
206.46.232.11 failed after I sent the message.
Remote host said: 552 5.3.4 a message size of 20483 kilobytes exceeds the size limit of 20480 kilobytes computed for this transaction
The message is small, but the attachment is large. Is something wrong or am I really limited to receiving relatively tiny attachments?
My Yahoo email account receives the same email with no problem at all. Can someone tell me what's up?

First of all, I wouldn't consider 20 MB to be "relatively tiny," but I suppose that's open to interpretation.
Taken from Verizon's Support site:
How large of an attachment can I send or receive through email?
When you are using email, the Verizon web-based email application, you can send attachments that are up to 8 MB (megabytes) in size. Emails sent using 3rd party email programs like Outlook, Lotus Notes, or Eudora, however; can contain attachments up to 20 MB....
