Why is a firefox attachment being added to all my outgoing e-mails, this attachment is a duplicate of the body of the e-mail.

I use Microsoft Outlook for my e-mail and with each message the person receiving the e-mail finds an attachment with the firefox icon. The attachment will open and it contains a duplication of the main e-mail message. I only discovered this after sending my spouse messages to her computer while working on an issue with her Outlook Express 6 mail account.

If you copy the link from the location/address bar then a workaround is to place a character like a space or dot at the far left and select the link via Shift and cursor right copy to the clipboard.
You can set the <b>browser.urlbar.trimURLs</b> pref to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to see the http: protocol on the location bar and in the pop-up if you hover a link.
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • I would like to include a photo within the body of the email, not as an attachment. How do I do this?

    I receive emails where a photo in included in the email. When I send emails with Firefox, I have to attach the photo as an attachment. How can I include the photo in the body of the email?

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

    Why do I sometimes receive email attachments in the body of the email and how can I download and print from there?

    To save attachments, a couple of options include: (1) control-click on attachment, select "Save Attachment...", (2)  Click on "Show Details" in the upper right corner of the message, which then gives you some attachment functions including "Save".

  • Why do I not receive iCloud e-mails when there is a specific group of "To:" addresses in the body of an e-mail

    I noticed this when I started my iCloud e-mail account a few months ago. I am not receiving iCloud e-mails when there is a specific group of "To:" addresses in the body of an e-mail. I can receive the e-mail on my outlook & local cable providor e-mail accounts with all of the addresses listed. If I strip out the "To:" addresses and send it from my local cable providor e-mail account to my iCloud e-mail account than I will receive the e-mail in my iCloud account (minus all of the "To:" addresses that are in the body of the e-mail. This has caused me to miss a lot of e-mails.
    Following is one of the e-mail that I can send from my cable providor account and not receive it in iCloud. If I strip out all of the "To:" addresses I will receive it in iCloud. I have a case open with Apple but it is not going anywhere. This occurs from multiple sending internet service providors (ISP's) so I think it's an Apple iCloud e-mail processing issue.

    I've been having a very similar problem to what ziemsen describes, for about a week now. The Mail app has stopped delivering new messages to the Inbox, even though I can view the newly incoming messages on the server via Webmail. I am able to send email through Mail with this email account, and as for the other email accounts that I have on Mail (which are also hosted by the same server), I am able to both receive and send email with no problem.
    None of the mail settings have been changed, so how this happened all of a sudden is very puzzling. I have checked Account Info on the problem account - Mail recognizes that there are messages that are on the server yet to be downloaded, but it won't download them.
    I've checked what other users have suggested here in the Discussions Forum, and tried: 1) deleting the problem Mail account from Mail and re-adding it; 2) creating a new machine User account and setting up Mail with that User; 3) setting up Mail on another machine; 4) archiving and re-installing OS, and even 5) wiping the HD entirely and reinstalling the OS. None of these have worked.
    Ernie, your suggestion of deleting the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded file sounded like the solution to the problem, so I just tried it - but to no avail. Mail delivers messages that are on the server to my Inbox up until the same point that it always stops at, and there are almost 1000 new messages since then.
    I am pretty lost at this point - I have no idea what else I can possibly do to resolve this problem. The strange thing is, when I tested my email accounts on Microsoft Entourage and Mozilla Thunderbird, they don't have this problem - both deliver all of my incoming mail. I may have no choice but to switch to one or the other at this point, but I'm attached to Mail and would really like to continue using it if I can. Any advice would be much much appreciated.
    very best,

  • How do we send photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?

    How do you email photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?

    Eric, thanks for the info about the pictures, it worked.   The mail icon is not the one that came with the mac(it looks like a stamp with an eagle) this appears at a notepad with a ruler,paintbrush and pencil.  I can not open it, I did not download it and now I can not turn off the computer with shutdown I have to manually turn if off by pressing the power button.   This can not be normal.  Any suggestions.  thanks,  Ellen

    Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
    As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
    In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
    If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
    I completely agree.

  • How can I attach a document to an email as an attachment that doesn't appear in the body of the text

    When I send an email and attach a document it pastes it into the text.  How do I send it as a separate attachment?

    Control+Click or Right Click on the attachment within the body of the email and select 'view as icon'. Also make sure 'Send Windows-friendly attachments' is selected in Mail>Edit>Attachments menu.
    There is a (paid for) plug in available called Attachment Tamer that will make this the default behaviour and generally help Mail to make attachments more compatible across computer platforms.

  • When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open.  How can I change this?

    It should be an attachment.  Your Mac just displays a preview of certain attachments (such as .pdfs) in the body of the message.  A PC, for example, will see it as an attached file rather than a preview.
    You can save the attachment on your Mac by Control-clicking on it and selecting Save Attachment.

  • I am unable to send a PDF attachment using mac mail so that it appears in the body of the email when arrives in the recipient's inbox.

    I attach the pdf file as a view in place instead of view as icon, but it arrives in the recipient's inbox as a pdf icon attachment.  I have heard that there are programs that can make the attachment be viewed in the body of the email, but i have been unable to find them.  Does anyone have any suggestions??  I have called apple care, and been to the genius bar, but nothing.  it seems that if the email is sent from mac mail to mac mail it works, but to any other mail program they only receive the icons.

    new account are created without a password, so asking for it is normal.

    Compare the passwords Thunderbird has for the other accounts and see if using the same one is what you need to do.

  • TS3276 Attach a document as a file and not in the body of the email

    Good Morning from the UK!
    I have recently changed over from using MS Office for emails and onto Apple Email
    I now cannot attach documents in an email as a file
    They appear in the body of the email
    The recipient cannot view them as they are too small
    When they are then zoomed, they are too blurred to view
    I look forward to any help
    Regards
    Kim

    If you attached the photo using the attach icon or attach command, it will act as an attachment on the recipient's end, even though you see it in Mail in the body of your message. If you drag and dropped your photo into your email, it will act as a placed graphic in the body of your message.

    I don't have any problem attaching just a MS Word file in Mail. My process is pretty simple....with a message open I click the attach icon (paperclip) at the top of the message, then navigate to where the file is located and select it. I make sure I have the cursor at the bottom of the new message below my signature line. FWIW I use MS Word 2011.

  • I have a macbook pro with Lion OS and am using Mac mail.  How do I attach documents as attachments instead of coming up in the body of the email?

    How do I attach a file to mac mail without it going into the body of the email?

    To add to what Kappy said, note that you really can't control how some other mail client might display an attachment.  Some may display them inline, while others may require them to be opened separately.  And different people have different desires in this area...  some want a PDF file, for example, displayed inline, while others prefer for it not to be.  Just attach the file(s) and don't worry about this so much.
    Also, I do have to disagree with Kappy on one point...  I would not say that you "should" compress files and attach the compressed archive file.  That will force all mail clients not to display the attachment inline, but not everyone will want that (you'd be forcing your tastes on all recipients of your e-mail), and some people have difficulty figuring out how to open and view the contents of compressed files.  It's an extra step for you and an extra step for the recipient, and is not needed for most popular file types.  (Of course, we could advise you more specifically if we knew what file types you're dealing with.)

    I need to send a photo via email as an attachment and NOT have it shown in the body of the email?  Please help.

    To make attachments not appear in the body of the e-mail as a default, try using the Applications/Utilities/Terminal command below. I suggest copy and paste.
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool YES
