Sending attached images

When I send a image file to a none mac user the file either does not attach to the mail or it embeds itself in to the e-mail and changes to a BMP file. The reply I get back from the recipient is there is no attachment, how ever the in the reply back to me the images are attached to there mail. Does anyone else have this issue and is there a way to send a jpg as an attachment and it stay an attachment for the recipient.
Thanks
Mitch

Greetings,
Attachments are not embedded into your email; that's a function of the recipients' email client, not Mail. If you attach an image, it doesn't change to a BMP file, since Mac doesn't use that file format for anything; the recipients' Windoze mail client would do that.
If you want to send images, you have two options: 1) is to always check the Send Windows friendly attachments option; or 2) compress the images into a .zip file and attach that instead.

  • How can I send an image directly from the browser as an attachment, not a link?

    I'm wondering if there's a way-- either via some kind of add-on or a direct FF customization-- to send an image as an attachment rather than as a link? either right-clicking an image and selecting "send image" or dragging an image into a "new message" window in outlook for example merely adds a link to the image and I'd rather that the image itself was added as an attachment. this functionality is available in IE as "email picture," which is extremely useful.
    thanks for any insight here.

    It was not mentioned what the client is. If it is a browser, the image can be sent using hml img tag. If it is using streams, then u need to set content type to image/gif or image/jpg ( depending the image u r sending) using response obj.
    response.setContentType("image/gif");
    Bye...

  • When I attach images to an email they show as the image and not an icon.  Is there a way to make the attachment an icon?

    When I attach images to an email they show as an image and not an icon.  Is there a way to have them attached as an icon?
    When I send attachments this way some people can't save them.   They can see them but not save them.
    Any ideas?

    They are received as attachments, i.e. icons. What you see is the real image on your disk, and only if small enough to be displayed. Otherwise, they are small icons inserted in the text.
    Additionally, when you place an image in the message, you will find an option in the lower right corner, otherwise absent. Use it, if need be.

    Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
    Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
    There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
    One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

  • Making sure attached images and signatures appear in the body of sent email

    The subject line says it all. I would like recipients of my mail to see the attachment/image or signature, within the body of the email where I have placed it.....or not if I so choose. Is this possible to control from the sender's end?....or is this also influenced by the receiver's mail settings and platform?
    I know there are many posts that dance around this issue, but I have not found one that nails it. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The Mail.app displays all image/photo and single page PDF documents inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default. Depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such attachments may appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default when the message is opened (as with the Mail.app) or as attached files only for which the sender has no control over.
    If the recipient's email client is not the Mail.app but displays image/photo attachments inline or viewed in place, the attachments may not appear exactly where you placed them.
    The only way to do what you want or get as close as possible is by using HTML formatting with embedded images and/or objects and no Mail.app version includes an HTML composer/editor.
    RTF with Tiger Mail is HTML which allows for forwarding a message received that was composed in HTML keeping all intact. With Tiger, you can use the HTML editor/composer of choice with embedded images/objects, etc. and save the completed document.
    Open the saved HTML document with Safari and at the Safari menu bar, go to File and select Mail Contents of This Page. A new Mail.app message will be launched and the HTML document viewed with Safari will be copied to the message which will be sent in its entirety.
    You cannot do this with Jaguar or Panther Mail.

  • ATTACHED IMAGES DON'T LOAD OR SHOW IN HOTMAIL BCCs TO MYSELF

    I am currently running FF 3.6.18.
    I have never had this problem before.
    Worked fine up until Tuesday JUL. 19.
    Whenever I send an email to someone w/ attached image files,
    I always BCC myself to see that everything went through okay.
    As of 2 days ago, the images/slideshow won't load or show up in the BCC to myself - in Firefox.
    It says "Loading... If it's taking too long, click here" and if I click that, all I get is the clickable file names - but no actual images.
    BUT the attached images DO show up in IE (which I NEVER use, lol).
    Several people I've sent images to (in AOL and Yahoo, so far) CAN see the images - but they don't use Firefox.
    Is this an MSN / Hotmail problem specifically?
    I sent pics to a friend who also uses Firefox - he CANNOT see the attached images in his Hotmail, but he CAN see them in Yahoo.
    I am ... confused. :o
    thank you,
    June :)

    I'm having the same problem on multiple computers, and multiple browsers - FF and Safari.
    Would be interested to know if anyone has come across a solution to this problem.
    Interestingly, it doesn't affect IE, which almost leads me to think that Microsoft have disabled this for use on other browsers on purpose...

  • Attached images dont show up

    Attached images dont show up. One has to select message -> alternate view to preview incoming attachements; if i send attachements to windows or mobile systems they dont show up at all. Is this a snow bug? does anyone know this issue and has a solution ready?

    Please create a New User Account, and as that New User launch Mail and try setting up this IMAP email account. See the following if not familiar with adding a new user account (which I am sure you are):
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
    The reason for doing this is to test the Mail app itself and the particular settings in the normal user account, and not to permanently switch to a new user account. Tell me if the behavior continues in that New User Account with Mail and these messages?

  • Mail converts all attached images to bmp

    I need to send all my (attached) images as jpg or gif. but windows recipients complain they are receiving them as bmp files. i do have windows friendly setting activated.
    any ideas?

    Are you using RTF for message composition?
    If so, try using Plain Text instead.

  • Mailed attached images cannot be retrieved by PC Users

    For some of my PC user customers, not all, when I attach an image of any kind (not copy and paste), they view the image in there email program but cannot download it. One client says that he can download it if he goes directly to his gmail account but not out of Outlook. At first it was just one client, now it's spreading to others. I am having to send the images zipped. Is there something I am doing on my end to cause this? . . .Cliff

    Cliff,
    When sending to those using Outlook or Outlook Express, send only in Plain Text. As a test, choose a message you have already sent in the Sent mailbox, then click on Message in the menubar, choose Send Again, then click on Format in the menubar and choose Make Plain Text. Send again, and ask the result.
    The attachment is there, and if they were more adept, they could probably download. But using Plain Text is best for this. With AOL users who are using the AOL software rather than an email client, there can be a different problem, and zipping may be the best path to them.

  • Sending Mail (Image Format)

    Hi Brothers and Sisters,
                          I want to send a image by mail in R/3.
    Any one can assit me.
    Edited by: abap.m on Jun 11, 2010 11:30 AM

    Are you trying to send the e-mail with the image embedded? I did it with PHP and Phython... Never done it in ABAP, sadly to say... but I guess it should be possible. You'll need to play with the way the HTML code of the e-mail is being created, using MIME and the right headers. I'm guessing the result of WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT will be your 'Content-ID'.
    Do some google with "Send an HTML email with embedded image". Even if it's related to another programming language it might give you some clues about how to compose the e-mail and you'll be able to replicate the logic by using CL_BCS.
    An alternative would be to just attach the image to the e-mail.
    Cheers,
    Andres.

    Your carrier determines what you can send in a text message, Apple has no control over it as SMS and MMS are completely carrier-based

  • Send Aperture images via PowerMail

    PowerMail is not listed as an option in Aperture's email preference, but you can use PowerMail if you want to. Here's how:
    1. open Aperture's Preferences.
    2. click on the 'Email images using' popup menu and make a note of all active options; i.e., black instead of grey. Aperture will only list the mail applications it believes exist on your hard disk.
    3. Now select one of the active mail applications that you *don't* use. At the very least, you could use the Mail option if you use PowerMail instead of Mail.
    4. open Aperture/Contents/PlugIns/
    -- this is where Aperture keeps the AppleScript scripts for its Send Mail command.
    4. find the script for the application you selected; eg, 'Mail.applescript'.
    5. duplicate the script and keep the duplicate as a backup.
    6. open the original script in Script Editor and replace the script text with this:
    <code>

    7. save the script file and close it.

    Fair enough Butch. It was just a word of caution to the OP - consider checking integrity after uploading. And if not so lucky as you, consider plan B.
    My experience: There's a reason its relegated to a sample in the SDK (potential for corrupt files on server), as opposed to being included natively in Lightroom. Granted, I'm on a really bad internet connection, but I don't know about the OP's connection...
    Also, I've heard sFTP mode may have some better error-checking, although I've also heard there are some bugs in sFTP mode - I have no personal experience with Lightroom's sFTP implementation.
