Weird message sent instead of "sent from my iphone"

I sent an email to myself (from my gmail account on my iphone 6,
to my [same] gmail account on my PC) so that I could have a copy of a photo on my PC.
It was one .PNG screenshot of a setup screen info for an app that I wanted to retain in both places.
It didn't have a subject and I didn't add one, and there was NO body to the message, only the attached photo.
It was the first time I did this type of thing.
When I received the email at my PC it went to the suspected spam file.
In the place of the usual "sent from my iphone" message it said,
"This body part will be downloaded on demand."
I thought this strange, possibly threatening and printed the email out.
When I clicked the "this is not junk" button the message magically transformed to the "sent from my iphone".
I have subsequently tried sending the same photo the same way and it comes through with the normal message.
If this hadn't happened to me I wouldn't have believed it.
Luckily, I showed it to my wife and printed a copy before it disappeared.
Has this happened to anyone else or have I had some sort of miraculous apparition?

I realize that that is why I got the spam message from Norton.
I only included that to show the complete chain of events leading up to receiving the strange email.
My real question was about the "This body part will be downloaded on demand." message that was actually in the email, and later magically changed to the standard "sent from my iphone". message.
Here's a scan of the printed email:

Messages sent from my iPhone to a certain contact also now come up on my husbands iPhone . This happens since we face timed the contact from my new iPad at Xmas . My husband uses my iCloud as we share iTunes info . How can I stop this happening ?

Since getting an iPad at Xmas , we facetimed a mutual contact on the ipad , now messages I send from my iPhone 3GS to that contact show up on my husbands iPhone 4 . He does use my iCloud and iTunes account as we share music . How can I stop my messages going to his iPhone ?

Hello lisa.burton35,
If what you want to do is share your purchases with one Apple ID and have other stuff separate, that's pretty easy.
Check out the section "Use one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store purchases" in this article.
Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
Basically he would use your Apple ID for the Stores (iTunes, Apps, iBooks) and his Apple ID for everything else (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, FaceTime, Messages etc).
Now if he has been purchasing stuff on his own account then you would have to make some choices on the purchase accounts.
You may also want to check out Family Sharing, which allows people to share purchases within a familly, each having their own IDs.

Switched to Galaxy S4 from iPhone 3GS, messages sent from other iPhone users going to my iPhone as iMessages.

Hi, I just got a Samsung Galaxy S4, and activated it this morning. My prior phone is the iPhone 3GS, running iOS 6.0.1. Whenever someone using an iPhone sends me a message, it goes straight to iMessage and doesn't go to my Galaxy. I have no service on my iPhone, just wifi. Even when an iPhone owner sends it to my phone number it goes to iMessage. I disassociated my phone number from my Apple ID, and I removed my phone number from Settings and just put 0, since you have to put in something or else you can't save it. Please help! I want all my messages to go to my new phone, but still have the option to use iMessage in my old iPhone using my email, so I can use it like an iPod.
Thanks in advance :)

Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

My wife and I each have an iPhone 4S. With the upgrade to ios6 all text messages sent from my phone show up on hers to include responses from my text. text that she sends from her phone appear as if from mine. How do we stop it?

My wife and I each have an iPhone 4S. Ever since the upgrade to ios6, text messages sent from my iPhone also appear on hers? All response to those text also show up on both devices. Likewise, text sent by her appear to others as having been sent from my iPhone. I have tried turning group messages off but nothing works. How can I correct this on both phones? Appreciate any help.

You need a separate email address but you've already ruled out that solution.

Message sent to another iphone is not blue

Why is message sent from an iphone to another iphone no longer blue, but now green?

Maybe the recipient turned off iMessage. It's also possible the recipient is not currently connected to a data network.

Messages sent from a shared mailbox aren't saved to the Sent Items.

Messages sent from a shared mailbox aren't saved to the Sent Items.
In my enviroment , I have Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2007 - i have a shared mailbox called
ServiceDesk. I have added this mailbox to user "Mike" and given mike "Send as Permission" .
The problem
When ever mike sends an email from ServiceDesk
- the email goes to his personal sent items instead of the sharedmailbox
sent items. Is there a way to force any email sent from serviceDesk Mailbox to its own sent items folder? .

Hi,
This is maybe the wrong forum for this question, but anyway;
Thie site you were pointing out's solution is valid.
Please look in to the following KB article that describes the steps needed to solve this issue. A hotfix package (which you might not need and a a "fixit" dowload for it, but will also change the registry key.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972148
If you have a larger environment and would want to deploy the registry value, I'd suggest using Group Policy Preferences Registry settings.

HTC Sensation not able to open text messages sent from iPhone4 iOS6

Up until I installed iOS 6, my friend had no trouble receiving and opening a standard (green) text message sent from my iPhone4. After the new install, his phone receives the message but as a text file that won't open. He hasn't changed anything on his end nor have I changed anything else, so I'm assuming this must be the culprit. Has anyone else had a similar issue? Thank you for any suggestions.

Have you figured this out yet?

Messages sent from secondary mailboxes getting stuck in Outbox.

I have two users who recently began having a problem with messages sent from secondary mailboxes getting stuck in their Outbox.
The details:
We're using Exchange Server 2010 version 14.03.0224.002
Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1
Office 2010 version 14.0.7140.5002 (32-bit)
The user in question whom I will call Jane has full rights and send as rights to the department's mailbox (which I will call "Common"), however, the Outlook profile on her computer is setup so that Common is the default mailbox
and Jane is a secondary mailbox.
The problem is that in the last few weeks messages send from Jane get stuck in the Outbox. We have recreated Jane's Outlook profile on her computer which resolves the problem, but only for a day or two before it begins to happen again.
Additional info: Jane logs into her computer and her email as herself. As stated above she has full rights and send as rights to Common. Common also has full rights and send as rights to Jane's email.
We have used this setup successfully for many years for several of our users. The problem started with one user a few weeks ago and now a second user who accesses a different Common mailbox is having the same problem. Both systems have been
thoroughly checked for viruses and malware, etc.
Anybody got any ideas?

The same thing happens to me. Really irritating. However, even after rebooting, the mail is sometimes stuck in the outbox. Anybody have a solution?

I have recently bought a second I phone4 and have the same apple ID on both of them, strangely I noticed the messages sent from one phone appearing the other one along with any pictures I sent from one of my Iphones. Is it possible to see the same msgs.

You need to setup different Receive At addresses for iMessage.
If you don't want the same pics on each, turn off PhotoStream.

How NOT to save iCloud Mail messages sent from iPhone?

Using iCloud Mail on a MacBook / Safari, e-mail messages are NOT saved - the relevant box in Preferences is unchecked. However they are saved in the Sent folder when sent from an iPhone. Is there any way they are NOT saved either way?

Again, ON MY IPHONE only has Sent option. There's no way you can set the Sent mailbox to any Trash anywhere.

Random message created and sent from my IPhone 4 but not by me

During the course of a two way text conversation with another person a random message was generated and sent from my iPhone but not by me. Is this a virus or has my phone been otherwise compromised and what is the remedy?

It is possible that your Apple ID has been compromised, which could let someone else receive all your texts and send texts as you from another device. See:

HT3529 My iPod doesn't deliver the messages sent from Messages, what do I do?

My iPod doesn't deliver the messages sent from Messages, what do I do? I've tried everything, from restoring it to simply restarting it.

You cannot update your ipod from the ipod itself. This is only possible once you have ios 5.
You update it the you always have. Open itunes, connect ipod. It will prompt you to update, if an update is available.
If you have the 1st gen ipod touch, then you have the latest upate: 3.1.3

Messages sent from iMessanger on Mac wont come through on my iPhone

Hey there,
Ive been sending messages from iMessenger on my Mac to friends and they are receiving them on their phones and Mac messengers from me as normal, however they dont come through on my iPhone. So I have two seperate messages happening.. I can have conversations with friends from my phone or computer but they are not syncing up together. How am I able to have messages sent from my Mac appear on my iPhone?
Hopefully that wasnt too confusing, kind of hard to explain.
Thanks in advance!

Go into iMessages settings to see what e-mail is linked with the account. If your daughters email is listed there, that is the reason you are receiving her iMessages.
