Hi Fellow WAMUGGERS,

I asked a question a little while ago,but no replies to date, would anyone have 
any idea as to why e-mail just quits on me whilst I am using it? It doesn’t 
matter if I am writing an e-mail or deleting mail, it just quits, I have tried 
the usual,got rid of all JUNK Mail,got rid of the RUBBISH, deleted old Mail, 
and still it quits, any ideas please?

Kind Regards

What version of macOS and Mail are you using?  Catalina had many issues with 
Mail from the start.  I understand not all have been fixed.  Google search show 
several “try it” remedies.  Not being a Catalina user I don’t know the current 
status.

Alan

HI Anthony, I’ve not had this issue but it isn’t clear for you is it Mail on an 
iOS device (iPhone/iPad) or an OSX iMac/Macbook? What version of the OS is on 
it and what is device model?

Either way check the following:

How much clear memory does the device have?
Check on line for Mail Repair process
Have a read of this for example - rebuild and reminded process.
https://www.computerworld.com/article/2476217/mac-os-x-how-to-fix-apple-mail-by-rebuilding-and-reindexing-the-mailbox.html
Is it backed up to Time Machine? A good idea to hold records.

Good Morning Everyone

I am having problems with the e-mail page, whilst using e-mail it will 
unexpectedly shutdown for no apparent reason,whether I am writing an e-mail, 
reading the e-mails, or deleting mail, so far it has shutdown 5 times in less 
than half an hour. I have quit everything, then re-started the Computer but it 
doesn’t seem to resolve the problem for long.

Would anyone have an idea on how to resolve the problem please?

Kind Regards

Good morning Tony, 

I could not locate the InstaSize Photo Editor Premium on the App Store, so that 
would be a confirmation that the email you received is suspect. Just make sure 
you do not click on the link they provide and as you have not ordered and paid

Not sure if you may have to change your password with Apple as a security. One

2012-02-19 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi Tony,

I would suspect you have not selected your card to 'My Card'. It shows a little 
symbol of a person beside your card if it is 'My Card'.

You need to select your Card in Address Book and then
Go to 'Card' in Menu
And scroll down to 'Make this My Card' 
Then if you have a photo in your card it will display in Mail messages.

Re: e-mail photo.

Hi Tony,

To get an ID photo in your emails you need to attach a photo to your personal 
card in Address Book. To do that proceed as follows:

1) If it's not already there, add a card to Address Book with your name and 
email address.
2) From the system menu for Address Book, select Card > Make This My Card
3) Now to add a photo to the card click the Edit button at the bottom of your 
personal address card.
4) Double click the square where the photo will appear and use the chooser that 
pops up to select your preferred portrait shot.
5) Click Done at the bottom of your address card.

Cheers,
Carlo

Open the photostudio image in iPhoto and then choose the email

then put the image into an email using OSX mail already significantly

I can't remember the brand of the modem I had first - it was probably 
Nortel, since it seemed to be a standard Telstra issue - but the 
replacement is a Motorola SB4200 SURFboard Cable Modem. I sent an 800+K 
attachment just yesterday in under 30 seconds. That would have taken ten 
minutes or more when I was first using cable.

Some time ago I raised the problem of not being able to send e-mail
attachments using Eudora 5.1.1 under OSX 10.1.5 via Telstra cable
connection. The only replies I received inferred that I didn't know
how to attach a document etc to a e-mail etc.

For those that are interested, the problem is caused by (guess who)
Telstra. The following is the latest news on




I had this problem for ages when I first took out my cable account, 
but I have been assuming the problem had been fixed because it seems 
to have gone away. Uploads with attachments have been nice and quick 
for some time now. I'm using Mail though, not Eurdora.


I must admit that the greatest improvement had happened since 
Telstra replaced my cable modem after the first one I had was wiped

My upload problem is the same whether I'm using Eudora, Mail or

The beauty of this list is that most people are well behaved. On the odd
occasion that is does get out of hand the rest of the list seems to tell the
offending person or people to "take it outside". (Not that they really
should because that is the job of the list moderators, but that¹s openinga
whole different kettle of fish!)

I think the general theme behind it all is to be considerate of others,
don't ask before you search (if you know better) and be thankful for the
prompt, usually accurate answers you receive.

That way, everyone is happy.

That was my post - apologies to whomever may have been offended.

However, with no offense intended, I find it ironic and hypocritical that 
this message was posted to the entire group when you previously posted:

So, I would suspect to live up to your own standards, this message should 
have been posted directly to myself, not to the list, as it neither added 
anything to the conversation, nor has anything to do with Macintoshes.

And to throw something more recent into the fray, the very message prior 
to this posting you stated:

Adrian,
Having read the flurry of preferred options on how to read and reply to
emails - all I can say is that everyone is missing the point. It's an
option that you want to exercise and here is how you do it.

Edit > preferences > mail & news > reply and forward tab.
Select "Prefix my reply with short header attribution lines"

On my preference note - as everybody has expressed theirs - seeing I read my
emails from oldest to latest, I prefer the latest conversation snippet at
the top of the conversation that I have already followed!

I believe that if you in a one-on-one email situation, then it's perfectly
ok to quote above, below, where ever you feel like, but in the situation
where there are two or more recipients (eg: mailing list) simply quoting the
relevant parts makes good sense.

OK, now try to follow the flow of conversation with my reply at the bottom.
Now image a message thread with a dozen different replies and you're just
starting to read it. Think you could follow it? Probably but now nearly as
easily as if it's formatted from top to bottom. RFC's exist for a reason and
should be followed. I'm resending this to the list instead of just Troy to
demonstrate a point. Messages where people reply at the top when others
reply at the bottom quickly become disorganized and confusing.

Re: E-mail responses

2002-02-01 Thread Andrew Nielsen

Can you really talk about bandwith when my message is 4k and your's is 2k.


It may seem a bit silly when you're talking about one message. But 
now multiply your message by the number of people on the mailing 
list, and ask yourself if that was the most effective use of 
bandwidth. The WAMUG list is reasonably large, but some lists I'm on 
have tens of thousands of subscribers - imagine what effect it can 
have on the server hosting the mailing list (and on the subscribers 
receiving the messages) as the messages bloat in size.


We each also pay for our Internet bandwidth - either directly or 
indirectly - and people keeping their quoted replies to a minimum on 
mailing lists helps keep our Internet connections running cheaply and 
efficiently.


In my line of work I receive and digest a lot of email, I won't bore 
you with the detailed statistics but it's in the order of 1000 
messages a week. The less convoluted the quoted replies on mailing 
lists are, the more likely I am to quickly reply and contribute.


Hope this helps.

Re: E-mail responses

2002-02-01 Thread Greg Hosking
firstly, I was having a dig

secondly, writing the reply to an email at the top of email, like this,
saves me scrolling all the way down to the bottom of the email, saving me
time & hands (ie I don't need to touch the mouse). It also makes the
relevant part of the email (ie: the new bit) easier to find, rather than
being nestled in between the previous responses & the various footers &
signature at the bottom

thirdly, If I have been disinterested enough to not follow the thread up
until the 3rd or 4th reply, why should I suddenly take an interest & have to
work my way through the whole conversation? More likely I would already be
familiar with the thread and I don't need to reference all that stuff below,
as I'm sure you are in this case.

enough! have a good weekend, huh?
