Why is email I receive on iPhone a mime-attachment.html?

i notice this problem has been around for at least two years on the iPhone, any chance they will fix this so I can read my emails? Quite often, when I open an email, I see "mime-attachment.html", with no way to open this and read the email.
iPhone 4, version 5.0

I would never ask people who send me emails to only send them in plain text, that is actually very funny!
But thanks for taking the time to type your opinion.

Why can't my iPad and iPhone read mime-attachment

I have 3 iPhones, 2 iPads and 5 MACS in use throughout my company. One of our business contacts has sent emails to us that display in all the iPads and iPhones as a MIME Attachment and you cannot read the message, however on the MACS it appears as a normal email that you can read.
Any suggestions as to how to read the email correctly on the iPhone and iPad?

As you probably know, mime is an older format for xmitting e mail attachments. Mostly unsed for the last 5 years. There is one app in the store called Secure email reader that says it can read those attachments. Give it a try!

Why do email recipients receive "Part 1.2.3" attachments?

Every email sent using Mail that has attachments also includes an extra file, named "Part 1.2.3" or something. Anyone NOT using Mail as an email client gets these files. The file contents are something like "<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"></p></div></body></html>" if opened in a text editor.
There is no reason I can see why the attachments should be included. They are kind of a pain for recipients. They are unnecessary. And thanks to the really generic naming scheme, there is apparently no way to google for them to see if anyone else besides me is being driven up the wall by them.

If you are sending to people who use Outlook as an email client, there is likely nothing that will solve all of your problems. Outlook was designed to work in a closed Exchange server environment. It was extended, poorly, to work with the rest of the world.
The best way to communicate with them is to send email in Plain Text and go to the Edit>Attachments menu and select both options.
If you need rich text, then select the same attachment options, but when you start an email, change the font to something other than your default. That will cause Mail to start the message with a Font tag which usually triggers Outlook to consider the whole message as HTML.
However, your outgoing email server (ISP) and the incoming Exchange server may tear apart the message to check of viruses and then put it together in a way that Outlook chokes on.

Why haven't I received my iPhone 6 yet?!?!

I ordered my phone on 9/14 and said "will deliver by 9/19" when I ordered it. I ordered the 16gb silver phone. My order still says processing when it definitely should have shipped by now!! I'm not very impressed.

You ordered on 9/14? Most of us ordered on 9/12 and our shipping dates got pushed to 10/7 or 10/14.... If you ordered on 9/14 your shipping date should have at least been 10/20 or 10/31.

Why haven't I received an email saying my iPhone reached Apple?

I am not sure if this is the right category for this question but...
I sent off my iPhone for repair last Tuesday (the 13th) so I tracked it through UPS and it said arrived to the destination (in Concord, ON apparently) on Thursday (the 15th). Well it is now the 20th and I haven't gotten any email confirmation that my iPhone reached the destination from Apple. Did my phone get lost there or something or does it just take long? When I go to my repair status it still says "empty box delivered". It is also almost the 10th business day since I requested the repair so I am worried that my request will my cancelled and my phone will be stuck there.

There should be a tracking number in the documentation you got with the empty box by which you can track the package. If not, call Apple Support and ask them about status.
Regards.

Why don't I receive iMessages on my iPad when sent to my iPhone? When I send messages from my iPad, they show up on my iPhone, but doesn't hold true the opposite way?

Ok. So I figured out that I can add the email address to my iPhone 4s to receive the iMessages sent/received from my iPad. How do I get the messages on my iPad that were sent to my iPhone? Is it possible?

Why can't I email photos from my iPhone 4S?

Why can't I email photos from my iPhone 4S? It goes through the motions, select photo, recipient, file size but nothing is received.

Are you sending an email using a return address of, say @xxx.com" but using an outgoing server from a @yyy.com service? If so, this is known as relaying. Many servers now reject such emails, as this method is often used by spammers. Depending on your email provider, you may be able to get around that by going into the settings for that email account and finding a place where you can enter a valid @yyy.com address along with a password. (You'll have to hunt around the settings to find this, IF the account allows for that.)
Example: A non-icloud exchange account: Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars - In the Accounts section, tap the account in question (e.x. yyy.com), tap the Account name, fill in the Username and password in the section that also includes "Domain Optional" where optional is in gray.
Example: For icloud, Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars - In the Accounts section, tap the icloud account, Tap (in Advanced), "Mail" then indicate emails you want to use in "Allow Sending From".
Doing so lets you continue using a return address of @xxx.com, but the server also gets the valid address and password for its service and forwards the email as it should.

So... it appears to be owrking at the moment...
Thanks for your help... I'm not sure why it's working now.. but at least it is...

My work emails disappeared today on Iphone, but my yahoo emails remain. Why?

I have an Iphone 3GS and I have my yahoo account and my work account on the phone. I save the necessary emails that I might need when away from my computer. This morning I turned on my phone to check emails and my work emails disappeared completely (getting new emails on phone however). All of my Yahoo emails still remain. Why is this happening and how do I get them back?
Thank you

POP accounts do not synchronize across multiple clients; the POP3 protocol was invented at a time when personal computers were new, and no one anticipated that anyone would ever have more than one device to read email. So when multiple devices became available the IMAP protocol was developed; IMAP makes the server the master copy, and replicates mail to all clients and keeps them synchronized. So deleting or moving a message on one client updates the server, and then the other clients the next time they sync. Yahoo uses IMAP, which is why it works as you described. Exchange is similar to IMAP, but uses a different lower level protocol that allows "push" to the clients so they don't have to request updates.
As your work accounts are POP3 mail should never be deleted unless you delete it, or you have automatic deleting set up in the settings. So it sounds like something went wrong on your phone; possibly a "toxic" malformed email was received that corrupted the Inbox, and mail.app recovered be emptying the Inbox. It's unlikely that those emails can be recovered. You can try restoring the backup if you had synced recently, but that will overwrite everything that has been received since.
If at all possible you should switch to an IMAP or Exchange account for your work email to protect against this in the future (and also take advantage of other IMAP benefits, such as folders).

Adobe Creative Cloud Muse: Why I don't receive anymore the email from the forms I created in several websites?

Hello Sanjit,
thank you for replying.
I had the problem on this website, I have two forms, one simple and the other more sofisticated:
www.oeso.org
(at the bottom I have a simple contact form) and
I created also a form on www.oeso.org/new-membership.html
but i didn't receive any reply so
I put the form on my website (architecturevisualdesign.ch) in a hidden form:
http://architecturevisualdesign.ch/oeso-new-membership.html
and here I receive the OESO New Membership Form Submission reply.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,

Please provide the site url in question , also have you hosted the site on Business Catalyst ?
Emails can land to spam/junk folders so you should also check the folders.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Why do emails from Business Catalyst site not show up on iPhone?

I have an email setup on my own Business Catalyst website with a few alias's. The email account is setup in my Outlook 07 Windows 7 64 pro desktop, and I can send and receive emails from all of the alias's and the main email. However I am noticing that on some emails from clients, I get the email on my desktop Outlook 07, but it never shows up on my iPhone.
EXAMPLE: Today I received an email at 12:57pm. It shows on my desktop. But never showed up on my iPhone. Once I saw this I forwarded the message from my desktop to the same email address that my client had sent his email to. Once I did that I did get the forwarded email of the original email on my iPhone. And yes, I have received other emails from the same client email address before on several occasions.
Problem is that I left my office at 12:15 and did not see this 12:57 email until I got back to the office much later in the day. And thus, ending my day very badly due to.....??? A) the Business Catalyst email I have setup is not setup correctly B) my email settings in my iPhone is not setup correctly.
Wondering if anybody else has experienced the same issue and figured out what step was missed.

Hi bluetaildesign,
Not sure how is that working on one instance but not other. Can you please try to use mail.b.hostedemail.com as incoming and/or outgoing mail server on iphone and try again. This hostname has the SSL certificate installed on it and can be used for transferring the emails in a secured manner.
Hope that helps!
Kind Regards,

Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all.

Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else? I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.
