Attached to an e-mail being damaged when moved.

I a spent a strange in Mail. I think it started when I updated to Sierra late last week, but while that reasonably sure it's that I can't be 100% sure.

My main mail account (IMAP) is a third-party provider (but this seems to be repeated with other accounts including my iCloud accounts).

When I send an email with an attachment pdf, the recipient receives it very well, the mail is placed in my inbox sent very well and it displays fine. However when I move it to another folder for the PDF archiving seems to disappear.

This happens when I move it to a folder of archive "on my Mac" and also to a folder in my email to iCloud account. Not every email with an attachment pdf for this although cases where they are rare, and I can't find even a boss who to and who are not. Sometimes, instead of disappearing, they will turn into an appearance of type long machine code.

If I chose to copy the message to a folder instead of moving it, both the original in the sent folder and copy to the folder of archive are concerned.

I think that the pdf is damaged rather than deleted because...

  • E-mails always show icon of attachment (paperclip) next to the recipient in the message list in the column to the center of the messaging application.
  • In some cases if I select several e-mail I enter to see the attachment in the graphic "multi-Courriel stack" displayed in column 3 of the messaging application.
  • If I move or copy the mail on my iCloud account, I see both a pdf on my iCloud.com phone but my phone it opens a blank document gray and iCloud.com reported as corrupt.

If I drag mail with an attachment pdf on my desktop the same thing happens.

This doesn't happen with the mail that I get with a pdf file, even if this mail was sent from myself as a test.

Have you ried, in this case also, if you set "Mail > Preferences > General > remove the download" to "never" instead of one of the automatic options?

I seem to have lost the man so attached after the upgrade of the Sierra, but did not find a model that I have disabled all the messages of all the rules that allow mail delete attachments.

In my view, this problem is related to the automatic "Optimize Storage" and "Reduce the clutter" in Sierra.  From  > about this Mac > storage: one of the options is to keep only the latest accessories.  I never activated, but but most of my older attachments have been deleted.

    My iPhone (and Mac) has recently started inviting me to enter my password of e-mail occasionally, even when my password has not changed. I always receive my email if I do not reintroduce.  I sometimes take the message pop up on the home screen.  It happens about once a week lately.  I'm a little worried that so often on my iPhone.  The same thing happens to my Mac too, but less frequently.  I noticed that this happens for Gmail, email from work (Exchange) and iCloud, but not all other accounts.  Potential virus?

    Not necessarily

    When the mail (especially sent) is rejected by the server - for some reason - server busy or too large attachment or even unstable connection - the first step is to ask for authentication

    I would see if there is a model in terms of contacts or attachments that you can discern

  • Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.

    Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.  When I try to catch the separator bar to go back to the left, only half of the small arrow icon and line appears, and it cannot be moved.   Can open the message by double clicking a message viewer.

    Hi there, alicefrompa!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. From your post, I understand that you do not see the Message Viewer box which allows you to read your e-mails; only see you the Inbox that includes a brief overview of the message and are unable to restore access using the separator bars. I have had this happen to my own Mail app and am happy to let you know how I could fix!

    You are really on the right track - you want to roll your mouse over the divider between the Inbox and sections Message Viewer (which should now be on the extreme right edge of your mail window) and drag it to the left.  When you click on the receipt/Message Viewer box, the cursor turns into a line continuous black with a single arrow pointing to the left. When you see the cursor change, click with the left button of the mouse and (while holding down the mouse button in) drag the combination line / arrow to the left. You may need to drag a little further than before to get it. I had to hang mine almost completely in the middle of my Mail app before the display of the message box appeared.

    From there, you should be able to adjust the boxes to your widths you want as expected.

    If you are still not able to get the display of the messages visible after have try this, here are a few more things that you can do.

    1. Press command + O on your keyboard.
    2. Exit the Mail application, and then press on and hold the SHIFT key on your keyboard while reopening.
    3. Restart your Mac by selecting the menu  Apple in the upper right of your screen restart from the menu drop down.

    See you soon!

  • Apple Mail only works when I restart in "safe" mode otherwise it becomes crazy, using all the capabilities of the CPU.  Seems to be linked to the case.  Any help?

    Apple Mail only works when I restart in "safe" mode otherwise it becomes crazy, using all the CPU capacity without any correct output.  Seems to be connected with caches.  Any help?

    Generally, if your Mac works correctly in Mode safe, but not normally, then you have a third-party software that runs at the start of the origin of the problem.

    Safe mode disables most of the extensions of third-party startup and some Apple hardware, so it could be another problem for Apple, but I have never heard of your problem.
