When I drag a mail (*.eml) into Apple Mail as attachment, then send it out, the attachment will become incomplete or corrupt in receiving side

Hi,
My environment : Mountain Lion, build-in Mail software for send and receive email to/from Exchange Server.
Steps :
1. In Mail software, I drag and drop the email into Desktop. the email is still complete in this step.
2. Write a new email , starting from blank, then I drag the email from Desktop as a attachment then send to the receiver
3. In receive side, the mail attachment will become imcomplete , sometimes, the body become null, sometimes the whole emails includer header become null.
the default email format setting in Apple Mail is "RTF"
Thanks for help.
Pender

Their appears to be a fault in yours or their email program because I just dragged an email to the Desktop, dragged that into a new email in Apple"s "Mail", sent it to myself, and when received the attachment was flawless.
Hope this helps

Trying to import Entourage Emails into Apple Mail

I recently purchased a new Mac (Mountain Lion) and am trying to import the emails from my old Mac. I was previously using Entourage but I want to import them into Apple Mail.
My old Mac will not restart but I have a copy on time machine. I think I have located the correct folder (and have copied it to my desktop):
My User Name/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2004 Identities/Main Identity/Database
However, when I click on the Import Mailboxes option in Apple Mail, it only gives me the following options:
Apple Mail, Netscape/Mozilla, Thunderbird, Eudora, Files in mbox format.
Does anybody have any ideas on how to proceed?
Many thanks
Claire

One method which is manual is as follows.
With the Apple Address Book and Entourage address book launched and both positioned so each is partially visible, select the Address Book "All" Group.
Select a contact in the Entourage address book and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All to select/highlight all Entourage contacts.
Click and drag all selected/highlighted contacts to the Address Book Name column for the "All" Group and release.
After selecting all Entourage contacts, you can also try Edit > Copy.
Select the Name column for the Address Book "All" Group and at the Address Book menu bar, go to Edit and select Paste.

I can't cut and paste any images into apple mail

I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet.
I am using a gmail pop account and firefox as my primary browser. It took me a few times to figure this out as the image appears to be attached in my mail, but is removed when I send, such that if I have text and an image in an email the recipient receives only the text. Before I hit send I can see both the text and the image.
I have tried starting again in safe mode and repairing permissions. That has not helped. I can login to my gmail regularly and cut and paste images with no problem.
This is exceptionally frustrating.

Hello. In 2012 you answered a query about the following problem:
"I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet."
This problem started with me this morning and it does not happen when I open a test account. The thread stops after you asked if it occurs in the test account, did you ever find a solution to this issue? I am using mac mail 3.6 on system 10.5.8.
I hope you receive this, I have never posted in one of these forums.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Unread mail on yahoo server after downloading into apple mail

If I am downloading my yahoo mail into my iPad is there a way I can set it so that when I later look at yahoo mail through their web interface so that that mail still shows as unread? Right now when I download my mail into apple mail all the yahoo mail which is still on the server shows as "read", but in fact I have not read the big majority of the mail on the yahoo server so I don't want to show it as "read".
Preferably I would show all the mail on the yahoo server as "unread" unless I really had read it already from the Yahoo server side. The reason is that many times I can use the apple mail but sometimes I have to use the yahoo mail interface and I need to be able to tell which Yahoo mail I really read already or not.
Thanks,
Chet Shannon

Chet,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Have you set the account up as IMAP or POP? Yahoo, which I believe was once only POP service, implemented IMAP. If truly IMAP, then messages on the server should only be marked as Read when they have been opened and read on some computer or other device.
If POP, then the normal POP server would not mark them as Read simply because they have been downloaded, but I think Gmail POP did this (haven't accessed my Gmail as POP in a long time, however).

Finally got through to tech support and found someone who seemed to know what was going on, he walked me through and using appleid.applesupport got me to a point where i could get a new password for the apple id that kept showing up.
I think you were on the right trail and I want to say thanks for your help. Much appreciated

I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

sounds like a corrupt database or index
the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

Trying to import older .mbox files into Apple mail

I have been trying to import older .mbox files back into Apple mail over an hour.
No matter what I use in the import window, nothing seems to work.
If it imports it sends it to the mail downloads folder but nothing from that point on.
I can read text in TextEdit but it's all running together.
OS X v10.6.8 Snow Leopard

I noticed on the left side way down past my last mail box folder ( long list) for the import .mbox files.
Seems they were hidden !

What is the easiest method to convert your Outlook Mail from MS Office 2011 for Mac, into Apple Mail?

As best I can see from googling it, there is NO easy direct way with Apple's builtin tools. If you Google it you will find that many software companies are selling Apps specifically designed for this purpose. Good luck.
Hope this helps

HT2500 Can I import my contacts from Gmail into Apple mail (Snow Leopard)?

Can I import my contacts from Gmail into Apple mail (Snow Leopard)?

That says Reset Documents and Data, not Contacts.
I want you to go to www.icloud.com, login and see how many contacts are there, because they are all the iCloud contacts. Any contacts that are not there, are not on iCloud.

I can't log into apple mail with out it asking me for a password.

I can't log into apple mail with out it asking me for a password. It never used to do this. What can I do to be able to send a email without having to type in a password?

Hey it4daddy73,
What mail provider are you currently using (Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo?).
Open up safari and go to that providers website and log into your email.
If you get in than open the mail app and click on mail on the top of the screen, then go down to preferences, click on the accounts tab, and type your password. Close the window and it will save.
If this doesn't work I would even try deleting the account by going into mail/preferences/accounts and clicking the - button in the bottom left corner. Than re add and configure the account by pressing the + button.
Hope this works, and good luck.

How to Merge Eudora into Apple Mail?

Mac OS 10.5.8 is now obsolete. So I'm planning to upgrade to Lion 10.7.x.
Since Lion does not support Eudora, I must switch to some other email client. After many hours of research I have decided to switch to Apple Mail.
Unfortunately, the two popular conversion applications (Emailchemy and Eudora Mailbox Cleaner) appear no longer in existence.
Any good tips on how to merge Eudora into Apple Mail on OS 10.5.8 (so I can upgrade to Lion 10.7.x)?
Thank you.
Scott "pulling his hair out" in Saint Louis

Hi folks,
I just helped someone move 350k messages from a series of Eudora archives to Apple Mail. Anyone who says they had great luck with Apple Mail directly importing their Eudora messages is either a liar or didn't notice (or care) that their dates were all messed up. So here are some notes.
First, Eudora Mailbox Cleaner only runs under 10.6 since it's PPC and requires Rosetta. So you're gonna need a 10.6 or earlier mac (or virtual machine).
Second, After running Eudora Mailbox Cleaner, you need to poke Apple Mail into rebuilding all those mailboxes. You can go Mailbox->Rebuild for each one if you only have a handful, but an alternative is to intentionally break (aka delete) Apple Mail's mailbox cache. You can do this by deleting/renaming the file called 'Mailboxes' (IIRC, I don't have a 10.6 mac in front of me to double check). Next time you open Apple Mail it will rebuild all your local mailboxes.
Third, Eudora Mailbox Cleaner will terminate if you throw it a particularly complex (or large group of mailboxes). I assume it has something to do with the way it walks mailboxes. You're going to want to break up any mail folder that has a number of large subfolders into multiple folders or imports. So for example, if you had the following structure:
folder/
folder/a (big)
folder/b (big)
folder/c (big)
Eudora mailbox cleaner will likely crash. If you reparent your folder structure so it's something like this:
folder/part1/a
folder/part2/b
folder/part3/c
This way no individual sub folder contains folders that exceed some magical threshold. I never figured out exactly how/why this happens, but if you put your big mailboxes each in their own folder, the import will usually just work. You might also have to break up your import into smaller chunks.
A couple other things to note, Eudora allows pretty much anything in mailbox names including ~><*%$@&/\|` etc. While most of these will continue to work fine in Apple Mail, it's in your best interest to rename them to something more normalized to steer clear of trouble.
As for Lion, I never successfully got Lion Mail to import mailboxes created by Eudora Mailbox Cleaner properly. Either they wouldn't show up at all or they would show up nested with two copies of the mailbox, for example MailboxQQ had messages in it as well as subfolder MailboxQQ/Messages with a duplicate copy of the mail.
So for me, going from Eudora to Lion Apple Mail I had to do the following:
Eudora->Eudora Mailbox Cleaner->Apple Mail (on 10.6) then copy the files over to the Lion machine and let Apple Mail (on 10.7) import the 10.6 Apple Mail Mailboxes into it's new 'V2' mailbox format.
So good luck. A perfect migration is possible, it just takes some work.

Is there anyway to stop iPhoto 9.6 creating a new unnamed album within a named album when I drag a new photo into the named album. for example: There is a album called Fred. I have a new photo of Fred imported into the Last import Folder. I wante

is there anyway to stop iPhoto 9.6 creating a new unnamed album within a named album when I drag a new photo into the named album. for example: There is a album called Fred. I have a new photo of Fred imported into the Last import Folder. I wanted to drag it into the album called Fred but iPhoto creates a new unnamed album within Fred.
Any ideas please. I am using Yosemite 10.1.1
Many thanks Jaz Eilles

Sounds like you have a folder with an album named fred inside of it. Folders can only hold other folders, albums, slideshows, etc. but not just photos. So you must be sure to drop the photo directly onto the album titled fred that resides inside that folder otherwise it will create a new album.
So expand the folder so the fred album is visible and drop the new photo onto the album.

Yahoo Mail, Iphone and Apple Mail

Hi,
I don't currently have an Iphone but plan to get one in the coming months. I've been having trouble finding answers to questions regarding Push Yahoo Mail:
1. Are yahoo e-mails sent through the Iphone also saved in the sent messages folder on the Yahoo server?
2. Not an Iphone question, but has anyone noticed when using Apple Mail with Yahoo Pop 3 (I'm a paid premium member), messages sent thru Apple Mail are NOT saved in the sent folder on the Yahoo server? G-mail Pop 3 DOES.
3. Does the Iphone recognize e-mails filtered into Yahoo Mail's folders? Apple Mail doesn't.
Any info much appreciated!
