Sending Stationary Mail to non-Mac users

Has anyone experience with sending Stationary mail to non-Mac users? The html files that are created in mac OS X require "downloading" when received on PCs. Does this depend on html friendly servers or some settings? Any suggestions?

Having stationary in e-mail is not a new concept. Microshaft was doing it years ago with Outlook Express. The short answer is that you can send e-mail with stationary to a user on any platform.
The need to download the graphics is purely a client side issue. Automatic downloading of graphics in e-mail is normally disabled by default on most modern e-mail clients.
This is due to the fact that spammers would include a picture in their message that was actually homed on a remote server. Once your machine downloads the remote graphic to display in the message, the spammer knows that your e-mail address is valid.
If your client, regardless of whether you are on Windows, OS X, or even web based, if configured to automatically download graphics then stationary will work.

Possible for non-Mac users to save and send iPhoto Mail images?

Will non-Mac users be able to download and save images sent from iPhoto via Mail? Of course they can see the images, but will they be able to save, send, and print them? Thanks.

The answer to the question is Yes, but...
A lot of people have problems because they don't understand their own email clients. The one way that is pretty much guaranteed to work is to send +only plain text emails+. It's the most basic form of email and it works.

Non-Mac users being able to accept iCal invitations

I have sent numerous meeting invitations using iCal to non-Mac users. When they receive the e-mail, they are unable to save the invitation to their calendar or accept the meeting request. How can I fix this?

Unfortunately, .ics files, which is how iCal invites are sent +as attachments+, are not recognized by the Mail app on the iPhone. Only Apple can alter that.
You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.
Note that the New Invitation Alerts setting on the iPhone applies to calendar invites sent via MobileMe or MS Exchange (those are true calendar invites, not email attachments).

Need to send a mail back to the user in Sender Mail adapter Scenario

Hi all,
I have a scenario where the user fills the Price form or the Article form (which is a Adobe Form).When the user clicks on the "submit" button,the form is converted into xml , gets attached to the mail and sent to PI.
Now the user sometimes attaches the pdf directly instead of submitting the form. This results in the mail being sent
with pdf as attachment.
Now my requirement is to send a mail back to the user asking them to send an xml instead of a pdf.
How can this be done ?
Kindly let me know friends.
Quick Response is appreciated.

Why can't Apple make 'publish changes only' for non .mac users?

The recent iWeb update to 1.1 and the now increasingly obvious differential between .mac and non .mac features has prompted me to post here today.
I can understand comments, passwords and search facilities being a .mac only experience because it requires server side technology. I can also understand that .mac users get enhanced features like slideshows as well.
But why is the fundamentally *basic* option to 'publish the changes only' not available to non .mac users?
I know uploading to .mac uses a different protocol to uploading via FTP, but I don't think it is about that. Obviously the software engine in iWeb 1.1 can now track the pages that have changed, and flag those for uploading. So if the facility to do this is not available with non .mac uploading, is this some form of crippleware? Can any software engineers comment on this or am I talking off the top of my head? [And please mods, don't delete this post - I use the word 'crippleware' in its harshest form, clearly I can still use iWeb to make fantastic websites - I am asking a technical question here.]

OK, from reading this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=486335&tstart=0
There is a pattern: An error occurred while publishing file “/blah/blah", while file "/blah/blah" seems to be random from one person to the next, but they all share one thing and that is communication protocol.
For iWeb to be able to publish changes to .Mac, it has to:
1. identify if the file exists
2. do the following:
2a. if not exists, copy it to .Mac
2b. if exist, do some sort comparison - CRC checksum -
2b1. if checksums match, don't copy
2b2. if checksums don't match copy it to .Mac
At least I think that's what going on, I don't have .Mac so that is best I can think of. Perhaps, some Apple SW engineers can jump in here.
Now, the bad part is iWeb has to (and I'm assuming iWeb uses WebDAV):
1. go thru each file locally
2. crawl its way into .Mac (WebDAV is a slow protocol) to find the the counter part.
3. when it finds a file that matches a client side file, it has to (some how) do checksum on-the-fly across the net work (which is slow and congested)
#3 is I think where it failed, there are many factors here: 1) networks congestion 2) latency 3) protocol overhead 4) checksum calculation time etc...
iWeb eventually times out because any/all of the above.
It's nice that WebDAV can author to the host yada, yada, but it's so SLOOOOOW.
What I would do is for every publishing, I would build a files and their checksums keep it on the host (or local, must be hidden).
For subsequence publishing, I would (use a fast protocol like FTP) download this pre-built files/checksums list. Locally, do a full publishing, making checksum comparison, the result is delta changes; upload only those. Build a new files/checksums list upload that too.
What I mean to say is offload everything that is possible to local machine, bandwidth is PREMIUM!

Can I burn photos onto a DVD/CD for non-Mac users?

Can I burn photos onto a DVD/CD for non-Mac users?

You can burn a plain CD/DVD by just dragging the photos there; but, that may or may not be playable by everyone. To be sure that the result would be playable in any computer or CD/DVD player, it would be better to use either one of the apps already on your system - such as iPhoto. I don't use that myself - I use other third party software - but take a look at iPhoto help. And, you could make it more interesting by creating a slideshow - also in iPhoto, or iMovie. To give it the final cool touch, bring it into iDVD to give it a polished look if you'd like. You can burn it then from any of the above.
If you happen to have Toast (an excellent burning app), you could use that as well (that is my preferred way to work). In Toast, you have multiple choices: burn a data CD/DVD for Mac only, for Mac & PC, etc, burn a picture CD, video DVD, etc, etc.

Is there any way to have a non-Mac user just LOOK at an ical calendar?

Publish used to work, but the new SHARE doesn't seem to - at least not for doing what I want it to do. If a non-Mac user doesn't even HAVE a calendar on their computer, how can they look at one of mine?

Yes, I have been able share multiple calendars with people on a single account... including Gmail and Yahoo. However, I have only had limited success sharing with Hotmail users. So far, I can only get them to import a static ICS file that you have exported and sent to them. If they try to subscribe to the published link, then they get the following error:
"You're not able to subscribe to calendars that start with "https://". You may be successful if you retype the URL so that it starts with "http://" and then try subscribing to it again."
It's definitely not as simple as it used to be with the old ical program where you could simply publish a calendar group. Now, if you want multiple calendars published and subscribed to you, you have to do one at a time. It's such a bummer
I publish individual work schedules that often change... so having employees constantly import the ICS file DOES create more work. I have yet to find a solution to the Hotmail issue... Does anyone have any experience with getting Hotmail to subscribe?
I can give you the intimate details on how to accomplish subscribing to Yahoo and Google... is there something else you have in mind to sync with? Please note that Microsoft Outlook will accept your invite if it's version 2007 or 2010. Earlier versions do not work.
Cheers!

Mime attachments in Mail from two mac users

I've been receiving mime attachments in Tiger Mail from Ebay and members for a while and I've searched the forum for answers but haven't found a viable solution yet. I end up using TextEdit to open them. I've contacted ebay about this and they have no clue, and think it's spam even though I tell them I get them from Ebay tech support, however they do show up ok in my RCN webmail when I check there.
Anyway that's not the problem now, I was trying to troubleshoot my father's mail problem who is Panther Mail and it mysteriously stopped working for him a couple days ago both sending and receiving. However he is getting them from his webmail at SBC/Yahoo formerly Ameritech. I checked his account settings over the phone and they seemed correct to what he had before but I had him contact his provider.
They don't seem to know what's going on and wanted him to contact Apple.I had him contact them again and they finally did have him change his outgoing mail server from Ameritech to SBC/Yahoo. So he is able to send from there now but not receive emails. ( he still still sends and receives ok at his webmail site) . Since they changed the outgoing mail server however, the email he sends me (all plain text) is coming now as a mime attachment.
I've never seen this before from two Mac users using Mail and plain messages. I had him try changing back to the Ameritech outgoing sever but that still doesn't work. And again if I check my RCN webmail I can view these messages fine in the body of the email there, just not in Mail. Any ideas what may have caused this? Is it because of the Yahoo outgoing mail server? He's about givin up and has resorted to his webmail only for now. I generally like Mail but this is a pia.

<Where is it designated as a "mime-attachment" & where does the "27bytes" text appear?>
It shows mime-attachment(27bytes) just below the little plain document icon. This shows up both in the body of the email and also the little attachment drop down menu below the To / subject area.
<Also, if you go to Mail's View > Message submenu when one of these messages is open, which (if any) 'alternate' menu choices are available (not grayed out)? >
All are greyed out except Long headers and Raw source.
Here is the header info in the message if that helps any:

Sending OBIEE reports to non OBIEE users who are external to SMTP server

Hi All,
Hi Nazza,
Would you please help me how you diid send reports to non OBIEE users (external mails)?
I have configured the mail server and able to send reports to internal mails.
I have followed the following steps as mensioned in all blogs:
1. I created a d table called SA_SYSTEM_USER with default columns as mensioned.
2. Imported into Physical Layer
3. Created a view for Dummy table(Dual) with 'DUMMY' column.
4. Joined these tow tables DUMMY fact and SA_SYSTEM_USER as Dimension on DUMMY join Email.
5. Renamed columnsfor Presentaion table as mensioned in Bolgs.
6. Restarted the servers.
7. I noticed the system mail and system delivery profile created with only one email id(where are the other email ids from my SA_SYSTEM_USER table?)
8. But as written in blogs it never sends emails to external mails e.g. [email protected](this is existng mail in SA_SYSTEM_USER)
I am in need of urgent solution please some one help me out....
Thank you so much.....

Hi Deepak,
I followed every single step mensioned in the link you have given.
When save the iBot there was no response.
Would yu please clarify these doubts:
1. Do I need to have any specific settings on our SMTP mail server to send emails to external email-ids ????
2. I can see only one email account appears in My Account-->Active Profile. where I loaded 2 email accounts in my User table. Does it matters while I am choosing 'Specific Devices' on 'Destinations' Tab while deselecting 'Ineractive Dashboard' and 'Active Delivery Profile'?
3. By default the report is going to that mail account (internal only) if I select Destinations--> Active Delivery Profile.
4. As mmy requirement is to send emails to the users external to organization( external to our local SMTP server distribution list), I entered my Gmail account to test.
When save the iBot there was no response.
5. Do I need to set filter on specifc user on a conditional request to send e-mai to that usel??
6. Is there any solution for this please? Thsi is a must requiremnet.
My Thought (I am not sure) : 1. I create those user IDs on SMTP server
2. send reports to this user list.
3. From these user ID mail inbox of SMTP server if possible: forward those reports to external email IDs.
Thank you for your time
Regards
