Using MAIL - reading replies

Hi there ... I have been using Mail on my EMac for a year or so now ... and I have a problem ... sometimes I am able to read my replies to clients email just by clicking on the circular arrow next to their email BUT now it just does nothing when I click on this and I have to go and search through "sent mail" to find my reply to see what I said to someone ... very anoying
Can you tell me why this is ? and how to fix it so I can see all replies next to the appropreate email?
Also if I send a drawing with the email when it comes back from the client it no longer shows in their reply ... it is just a blue box with a '?' in it .... why is this?
As I send a lot a small Jpeg drawings to clients it is always goot to have it there as reference.
Also when I do send them as attachment they always so up on PC's as a great big picture ( ie 3 or 4 times sceen size ) in the body of the email and not as an attachment at the bottom . When I send them in my email they fit in my email page fine ... but when I get a reply if the show at all ( ie other than the above blue box ) they are hugh.... and take up 2 or 3 sceens
I would like my clients on the other end who are unfortunatley mostly on those bad old PC's ... to be able to just click on the picture and see it in some program that they can print it out from ...
On Mac I just double click on it and it comes up in Preview ..
Sorry this is such long-winded one ..hope someone can help?
yours Tim

You need to set up the outgoing server in the Mail
preferences. So, Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Outgoing
Mail Server (SMTP). make sure you've set up the
address the way your ISP requires.
I do have the settings the same as in my imac. the problem isn't the outgoing server settings, at least from what I can tell, the message sends if it is a straight sent message. If I've read a message, then click the reply button, and send the message that way it won't send. Manually inputting the info into a new message with the same text allows it to be sent.

  • Please Use Mail to send iphoto like the previous versions

    I really don't like the way iphoto emails photos now..
    is there a record of sent photos somewhere? I want
    to be sure it actually sent.. if it was returned because
    of bad address or some other error.. would I receive a
    notification somewhere? that it failed?
    thanks Dwight

    I see I just didnt read enough.. once again...
    If you also don't like the way iphoto mails things..
    go to iphoto>preferences>general> and switch to "email photos using mail"

  • I am using Mail 5.3 with two separate gmail addresses. One is personal the other is business. When I send emails from the business address, any auto-replies I get COME TO THE PERSONAL INBOX. I imagine that this is a setting? Please help!

    I am using Mail 5.3 with two separate gmail addresses.
    One is personal the other is business.
    When I send emails from the BUSINESS address, any auto-replies/out of office notices I get come to my PERSONAL INBOX.
    I imagine that this is a setting? Please help!

    Edit the SMTP server list. Add a new one for the business account. Put the correct password and information for it. Give it a description so you will know which server is which. Mke sure the correct server is highlighted in the account selected and check the box to use only that server for that account. Do that for the other account also.

  • Use Mail to send from a different account linked to Gmail

    I use Gmail as my main personal email account and usually use with Mail via POP.
    I also have Gmail set up to send from another account (my work address) which I can do by selecting a different "From".
    This second email address is actually a MS Exchange Server mailbox, and I think the Gmail is just sending 'on behalf of' and getting replies sent to that address.
    Is it possible to get the same results directly within Mail? (Not a huge problem if not, I can just log onto the Gmail website, but it would be nice to use Mail if possible).

    I've had the same issue as you, and found this helpful.
    Basically go into the Mail preferences and under accounts add the accounts (which Gmail gathers) that you want to send from to the "Email Adress" bar using a comma. For example:
    Email Adress: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
    Then a drop-down menu will appear when creating/responding to mail that allows you to select which account to send from.
    It can't seem to automatically respond to emails using the address it was sent to unfortunately, which Gmail cleverly does. But it's a step closer.
    Anyways, check out the link. It was helpful for me!

  • Have entrourage and want to use Mail. Can't get it to work.

    I had a macbook and purchased the Microsoft office for Mac which included Entrourage.
    I have now purchased a new macbook Pro and want to begin to use Mail rather than Entrourage. 
    I have Entrourage on my new computer but i can't get it to transfer my information to the the Mail program
    I am on Charter.net at my office and sbcglobal.net at home.
    How can i get this to work.  I can receive on Mail, but i can't send.

    check your outgoing port settings and make sure it's using a specific port and not the default port, also you might want to check to see if it is using SSL, TLS or any other encryption.  Verify the setting from your old machine setup.

  • XFCE4 & Preferred Applications; Mail reader 'claws mail' wont open

    Configuring my XFCE4 setup I wanted to set Claws Mail as my standard mail client, such that when I open links in my browser pointing to mail addresses (mailto:[email protected]) that specified mail clilent automatically opens and lets me type my mail right away.
    Now... that doesn't work. First Sylpheed Claws was set as my Mail Reader (apparently installing claws mails leads to two entries in the /usr/bin, one for Claws Mail and one for Sylpheed Claws). I switched to Claws Mail, and... it doesnt work.
    So, what is there to do about this issue? Any workarounds?
    I am using Epiphany as my browser, if that's relevant.
    Ah, I also wanted to track this problem down by opening Epiphany in the terminal and see what happens (error messages that is). But it won't open in the shell. I start it, it runs, but there is nothing printed in the prompt (if I close the terminal again, epiphany stays open). Can I force it to run inside the shell?

    Although the post is quite old -- I have the same problems using awesome window manager, epiphany browser and claws-mail.
    If someone still uses Epiphany with webkit see
    http://www.mail-archive.com/epiphany-li … 03090.html
    For epiphany 2.30 I tried
    $ mkdir -p ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto
    $ gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/command -t string 'claws-mail --compose %s'
    $ gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/enabled -t bool true
    But it won't work ;-( Has anyone ideas?

  • How can I choose multiple pictures, on the iPad, to attach in an email using Mail?

    I can easily choose and attach one picture from Photos to an email in Mail. I cannot seem to figure out how to choose multiple pictures, then attach all of them at once. I even tried using a separate folder to attach but that did not work either. Thanks in advance.

    From the Photos app tap Edit.
    Tap to select up to 5 photos. More and the Mail option is not possible.
    Tap Share.
    Tap Mail.

  • Why can I no longer send email from my Hotmail SMTP account using Mail?

    I can no longer send email from my Hotmail SMTP account using Mail. The connection doctor says it can't connect to the SMTP server. All the settings look to be correct and it was working fine before. I can still email using my iPhone with the same account.

    Other may post it is some type of change with your ISP but the simple fact is this happen with Apple Mac Mail all the time.
    IMHO Mac Mail is one of, if not the, worst mail program ever written.
    Do yourself a big favor and start using some other mail program, any other Mail program.

  • Need help in using dbms_lob.read

    I need to upload a file into an Oracle table into a Blob column. The file name along with the file contents are all in one BLOB column.
    Once that is done I need to read from the file and extract the file contents and load it into a staging table.
    File being uploaded is a *.CSV* file.
    E.g. Of the .CSV file is: ABC.csv file and its contents will look like:
    1,Hello,Nisha
    2,Hi,Ravi
    3,Bye, Rahul
    Etc…..
    Therefore the table containing the BLOB column will contain:
    File Creation_date
    ABC.csv 09/11/2009
    How can I read a file from the BLOB column and upload into a staging table?
    Final Staging table should look like:
    Record Number Greet Name
    1 Hello Nisha
    2 Hi Ravi
    3 Bye Rahul
    I think I am suppose to use dbms_lob.read, but I am not really sure how to use it. If there is any script, kindly mail me the same.
    Thanks....

    Nisha,
    Check this example (test) and see if it can be any help. I have utl_file and sqlldr
    First Method -- I loaded alert.log successfully and you can imagine how big this file can be (5MB in my test case)
    create table t1clob
    ( clob_text clob);
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY DIR AS '/path_to_csv_file/;
    DECLARE
       clob_data   CLOB;
       clob_file   BFILE;
    BEGIN
       INSERT INTO t1clob
       VALUES (EMPTY_CLOB ())
       RETURNING clob_text INTO clob_data;
       clob_file   := BFILENAME ('DIR', ABC.csv');
       DBMS_LOB.fileopen (clob_file);
       DBMS_LOB.loadfromfile (clob_data,
                              clob_file,
                              DBMS_LOB.getlength (clob_file)
       DBMS_LOB.fileclose (clob_file);
       COMMIT;
    END;Second Method: Use of Sqlldr
    Example of controlfile
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE alert.log "STR '|\n'"
    REPLACE INTO  table t1clob
       clob_text char(30000000)
    )Hope this helps.

  • On 10.4.11 Mac Mail I get this: Mail cannot update your mailboxes because your home directory is full. You must free up space in your home folder before using Mail. Delete unnedded documents or move documents to another volume. I can't open mail.

    On 10.4.11 iMac Mac Mail I get this message: "Mail cannot update your mailboxes because your home directory is full. You must free up space in your home folder before using Mail. Delete unneeded documents or move documents to another volume." I can't open mail to do this. I have reinstalled software but no effect. How do I get into Mail to delete?

    Found this on the "more like this" Worked like a charm!
    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Copy the Mail folder and place the copy on the Desktop for backup purposes.
    Go to Home > Library > Mail > Envelope Index. Move the Envelope Index file to the Desktop.
    Launch Mail and you will be prompted to import mailboxes. Select OK and allow the import process to complete.
    After confirming all mailboxes were successfully imported and available, you can delete the copy of the Mail folder and old Envelope Index file from the Desktop and this should resolve the problem.

  • I am using Mail with OS 10.9.1...I used to be able to drag and drop contact addresses from my address book to an e-mail header.  Now I have to type all the names and can't drag and drop.  Is there a setting for this?  Thanks!

    I am using Mail with OS 10.9.1.  I used to be able drag and drop names from my address book into the address header, but can no longer do that.  I now have to type each name in.  Does anyone know if there is a setting for this or is it a feature of the updated software?  Thanks for any info!

    Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
    If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
    Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
    You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

  • How do I use Mail (same setup) on two computers?

    I have a MacMini and a MacBook; both are running MtnLion 10.8.5.  The mini is my main computer. I used to have Snow Leopard on both.  When I traveled, I would copy my Mail folder and mail plist file to my Macbook and I was able to check/use Mail with my Macbook away from home.  When I was back and ready to use my mini, I would reverse the copy and viola I was ready to go.  (I easily connect the two wirelessly and easily copy files to and from. I don't have any issues with that part.)
    (I am thinking the first thing most people think is, no worries because of imap and icloud and other clouds, etc.  I use POP and I don't use iclouds, imaps, or other clouds.  Even if I did, there would still be the fact that I save emails in folders on my computer.  I have tried imap, and I personally do not care for it.  I like and use pop.)
    Now, with both having MtnLion, it seems more complicated.  I think of have found most of the files, even the ones located in different places.  There are more places now and more to remember and copy.  I think I got the macbook ready to go, but was thinking perhaps there is an easier way.
    Does anyone know a less complicated way to do what I am needing??
    I just want a way to copy all settings and mail to and from my MacMini and my MacBook.
    If there is not another way to do this, does someone have a complete checklist of what files and folders should be copied??  That would also be helpful.
    Thank you.

    thank you dianeoforegon for your post.
    My library folder was not hidden. I know how to find the files and folders, only want to make sure I get them all.  I upgraded to MtnLion months ago, just have not used my macbook for mail.  Last time was when they both had SnowLeopard.  Where the OS keeps all the files is different and there are more files/folders for Mail.  Some are in ~/library/mail  but some are in ~/library/containers/.…  too.  This is a new spot.  It took me a while to locate some of the spots.  It used to be just copy "Mail" "Mail Downloads" and the plist file.  It's not quite like that now.  I even found some in /Library/...  (this is not the user "library" folder, but the computer Library folder).
    Anyway, I just wanted some other way of "Copying" my Mail and Settings.  Not "transferring" my mail (like to a new system).  I want to copy it all and then use it.  Then copy it back with any changes and use it from there.
    Sorry if I am not explaining it very well.  I don't know what to call it!!
