Android :: Sending Email With Attachments
Oct 24, 2008
I've hit my first real usability snag with the G1.I tried to send a word processing file to someone via the gmail client on the G1 today, and found that I could select only photos and no other file type for attachments.So I fired up the browser and went to the desktop version of the gmail web site, and in the composition window, the button under the attachments section is captioned "Uploads Disabled" instead of the usual "Browse."Does anyone have a workaround for emailing non-jpeg attachments? This is a feature that I need to use on practically a daily basis. Any developers out there working on an email client, please support this feature.

My company has both Ev's and Intercepts. When users forward email using these devices the forwarded message gets attached as a .e mail file and neither can open attachments sent by these phones.

On My Samsung Captivate (AT&T) I can forward emails with attachments, but the attachments do not show up when I open the forwarded email. I am using the native Email app for my phone. I have seen several threads about this but none were any help a all. Does anyone know the REAL issue with this problem?

I returned my Droid some time ago because I could not forward customer blueprints and inquiries on ot my plants. The files were imp. tif. jpg. excel and word. I was told by Verizon that the phone might do it after some further updates. What is the real deal here. Will 2.1 fix this? I went back to my 2 year blackberry becaue the email was far more reliable and I could forward whatever came in with the emails I got. Is Android not ready for the business market yet, or have things changed since the Droid intro.

is it possible to send email with multi attachments? Because what i see is only Intent.EXTRA_STREAM to attach the file, and it's only one file.

I can't open email attachments. Says they are corrupted. I know they aren't because I can see them on my desktop.

I was notified by one of my customers that she was unable to use the feature of my application where she is supposed to be able to send her data as an attached csv file to an email. When I run this on my emulator at home, it works. She reports that she's using the GMail client. I'm not clear on what that is. I'm using the standard way of attaching a file.
There are a couple of exceptions. I notice that other examples of attachments on the group use the SD Card to save the file before sending it. Because of the section on files in this article:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html
I chose to use the internal file storage. I do not anticipate the files my application produces ever exceeding 200 KB.
So, does writing the files to internal storage only work on some phones? Should that be mentioned in the above-referenced article? It seems kind of important, since everyone seems to be using external SD Cards and not the internal memory.
Here's my code.

Below is my code example:

I have an Android app that I am working on that needs to get regular data updates. However, the only way that I will ever be able to receive the data is via csv files arriving as email attachments. I wish that I could use a web service or something else more reliable; however, this is the constraint that I am working with.
So, how can I build the functionality to monitor all incoming mail and if I receive a message with a specifically named attachment that has the expected MIME type, automatically save the attachment so that my app can process it?

I've written an app that can handle the VIEW action for a given mime Type, say "application/foo". By adding the following to Android Manifest.xml the Browser automatically uses my app to open downloads of that type. The G Mail app also tries to use my app to Preview attachments of that type, but it's passing a URI with scheme "g mail-ls://" rather than a "file://" URI. I guess I need to use a Content Provider to get the attachment data, I haven't looked into that yet. But the real mystery is the Email app there just doesn't seem any way to make it open the attachments. Any pointers? Opening attachments is a very common requirement of course, and I would expect the Android platform to encourage developers to write apps to handle more mime types. Instead I couldn't find any answers.

I have a Samsung Mesmerize through US Cellular. I am getting my company email on the phone just fine.. But when I get emails with attachments I have to save the attachments on the phone then navigate to where they are saved to be able to view them. Is there a setting that can be changed or an app to download that will allow me to view the files without saving them to the SD card?

I'm trying to create a default handler for .p7s/.p7b files in Android.
I figured the best start would be to create a BroadcastReceiver that will capture the intent from the Android email application (or K-9 if that's a need) for opening of certain attachments (filtered by mime type). Specifically I'm trying to handle s/mime email so looking for the "application/x-pkcs7-certificates" and "application/x-pkcs7-certificates" mime types.
Just as a basic test I've been trying something like this:
CODE:..........
I've tried using the following mimeType filters as well (testing signatures first):
CODE:................
I can't seem to get the IntentReceiver class to capture the intent no matter what filtering I use though. Am I going about this the wrong way?

I got my google mail working and my Exchange account for my email.When I first looked at my exchange account I was happy to see that I could open a PPT document. I thought great news! However last night ( 3 days later) I could not open a document for the life of me, it keeps stating "fetching from server". My email stays on the server so its not like that original email was deleted. My gmail account opens up the attachment just fine (did a test) so does anyone know why I cannot open an attachment in my Exchange email (corporate app)?

I cannot open email attachments of any type using the stock email or TouchDown app, which I use to pull email from my job's Exchange Server. Email functions fine otherwise. I can see that an email has an attachment, but when i click to download, the process begins then always ends with the message 'Not implemented". This happens will all file types.
I'm using an AT&T SGSII with Android 2.3.6

Did a search first. Is there any way to name an email attachment? Whenever my wife emails me a picture of our dogs (no kids so these are our kids) it always comes through as "photo" so when I download it saves as that. Now if I don't go back into the picture viewer and rename it the next time i try to save a photo attachment it tries to overwrite the last one as its comes in as "photo". Is there any easier way of renaming these attachment without having to go into picture viewer and renaming the last one first? Basically I'm want to do a "save as"

I just got the Captivate, and I am having difficulty viewing attachments (Low kb excel spreadsheets and word documents). The weird thing is, it let me open one excel sheet once as what looked like an html instead of excel, which is fine as long as I can see it, but this hasn't happened since and it wasn't any particular thing different that I did. What should I do? Is it a bug with my specific phone?
