Why "Outlook Express" users can't read email from Mail.app ?

Why "Outlook Express" users can't read email from Mail.app ? Any explanation ? Select a good format,that's a good explanation,but i can't know each time if our recipients use "Outlook Express".

There are no completely bug free email clients including the Mail.app and Outlook has its share of bugs for such an old/mature email clients and some glaring ones that MS has been aware of for a long time but has chosen not to do anything about since these do not affect exchanging email with other Outlook users.
Outlook has always had problems with Mail's RTF and the degree depending on the Windows and Outlook versions used by the recipient.

  • Can't download email from Mail 5.3 installed on OS 10.7.5.

    I can't download email from Mail 5.3 the last 2 days installed on OS 10.7.5. Then tried to upgrade to Mail 10.5.6 but get message that all my volumes are full. No they're not!! What gives?? See grab shot below.

    I may have just found the solution.  It turns out that the photos on my iPhone only became inaccessible after the latest upgrade of iOS 7.  They were not recognizable by any means of access from my mac. So...I launched iTunes and up came a dialog box asking me if I wanted to allow access to the iPhone via this computer.  I clicked "Allow," and it told me to use the iPhone to allow access.  I went to the iPhone and sure enough there was a dialog box asking for permission to share information with the computer.  I clicked "allow" or "yes" or something like that, and for me the problem was solved.  I can now upload photos from my iPhone with Bridge just like I used to.  No problem.  I hope this will work for other mac users.

  • I can't send emails from Mail. I have three different accounts set up and have the same problem with all. The mail just sits in my outbox. All worked fine until Yosemite upgrade. Recent update has not fixed problem.

    I have been experiencing the same problem. My mail app won't even open on my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. It will show as open, but the app will never actually show up.

    Unity 405 UM with Exchange 2003, Callmanager 413.
    Thanks

    Actually this is system wide problem, other users not reported.
    Solution: The unity primary server was out of synch with the exchange message store, restarted the Message Store svc, problem solved.
    Thanks Jeff and other posts, do give me lots of clues.

  • How can I read email from my aol account from my iphone and keep it as uread on my computer at home.  It automatically goes to read mail on my computer.  On my computer if I want to keep an email to answer later I can mark it "Keep as New".

    How can I read my email from my aol account from my iphone and keep it as "unread" on my computer at home?  At home I can read an email and if I want to get back to it at a later date I can mark it as "keep as new".  I tend to forget it if it goes to "read" mail.   Right now, when I read an email from my phone it goes automatically to "read" mail.

    On the iPad, using the mail app, there is no way to do what you are asking without tapping the flag icon and marking the item as unread. Have you tried the OWA app for the iPad? It may have that functionality, but I haven't tested it as you need an Office 365 subscription with Exchange support to use the app.

  • Can't import emails from mail

    I've given up on Lion and downgraded.  However, I can't seem to import emails back into the SL mail app from the mailboxes created in the ML mail app over the last several months.  Is there some method to do this?  I need several things from previous correspondence.

    Pay attention to the information Mail displays during the import process. It could be that it wants you to select the folder that contains the files to be imported, rather than the files themselves.
    EDITED: Now that I've read your post again, I don't think you're going to be able to do this on your MacBook, as importing from Outlook Express requires that application to be running in the "Classic" environment, which isn't available for Intel-based Macs.
    Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about how importing from Outlook Express is supposed to work, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

  • Can't Send email from Mail or Entourage

    I tried posting this last night, but it doesn't seem to be showing up anywhere. Just last week my computer stopped sending mail. I can receive fine, but not send. I have tried in Entourage and in Mail. I'm using a POP account and use a different server for incoming and outcoming.
    It worked fine until last week and the same thing works fine at my work (using the outgoing server from my work and using my home ISP at work) I use my ISP outgoing server at home and have even tried using a trial for MSN, and my work ISP to see if another ISP would do it but it doesn't.
    It comes back in Eudora with an error message: "Mail could not be sent using the account "Brian". A connection error occured. Error -3260. Mail says The message could not be appended to the Outbox.
    I've tried changing from port 25 as well. I also tried setting up a new user account and starting Mail up new and fresh with the same results. My wife sent something at 9:00 and 1 hour later the problem started, so nothing was installed new at that time. Just upgraded to 10.4.4 today to see if it would help.

    I'm not sure how you come to this conclusion. If you
    can send mail with any email account and SMTP server
    when connected to the internet at work but not when
    connected to one of two personal ISPs when connected
    to the internet at home, how can this be a computer
    or Mail.app problem?
    Because I have a different computer at home than the one I have at work. Were you thinking it was the same computer?
    If this is a computer or Mail.app problem, don't you
    think you would also have problems sending mail when
    connected to the internet at work?
    Not if the computer at work isn't broken like I assume the computer at home is.
    Do you have dial-up internet access at home for both
    ISPs?
    Both ISPs are dial-up. One is All2Easy (This is the ISP I used first) and one is MSN. A new development is that I can no longer dial up using All2Easy. I get online using MSN. I can still send mail from work using the outgoing mail server of email.all2easy.net though.

  • Can't receive email from Mail 3.4 and I can't get rid of a draft email

    OK, two problems here...
    1 The most frustrating is that I can't receive mail from Mail 3.4. I can send and my wife's email account is working fine. I've got a green light from the "Mail Connection Doctor" and I haven't changed any settings that I know of. I've been accessing my mail thru me.com now, it's working OK but not like "Mail".
    and
    2 I have this piece of email that I sent...the guy received it...and it keeps showing up in my "Drafts" mailbox. I delete it, then it comes back, sometimes multiple copies! I've been getting an error message....
    "Some actions taken while the account “Joe's Email” was offline could not be completed online."
    "Mail has undone actions on some messages so that you can redo the actions while online. Mail has saved other messages in mailbox “On My Mac” in “On My Mac” so that you can complete the actions while online.
    Additional information: The connection to the server “mail.mac.com” on port 143 timed out."
    Now my airport connection has been on and off with this machine (my old powerbook has been rock solid on the same network) so the "timed out" portion is probably true...but why can't I just get ride of this email message?
    Thanks for the help

    I think I've got it fixed....I "reset" my mail program, I deleted my mailbox then re-created it and I'm all set for now.

  • Can't send emails from Mail with microsoft word attachments

    Ok, this is a weird one. About a month ago I realized that people weren't receiving my emails sent from Mail when I attached Microsoft Word documents to them. I can attach anything else, but the second I throw in a .doc, the email simply won't be received. It will send perfectly fine, without any errors or signs of problems. Ever heard of that before? Any ideas?
    12" Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I've been sending ".doc" files from both Mail and Entourage for some time without a problem.
    Having said that, is there a chance that your Internet Service Provider is somehow blocking some file types?
    I've recently come across a cpouple of European internet providers who do block executables and key file types that are known to cause problems or that might contain viruses/trojans.

  • How can I export emails from Mail to a file?

    I have emails in Mail from a previous email host I was using. I want to export them into a file to give to my new email host. Can someone give me guidance on how to do this?

    Try doing a Save As and make the format Raw Mesage Source.
