Hi all,
Have been searching wildly for a fix to this and im reaching out for help.
Scenario: Standard email client in honeycomb 3.01 with an exchange account setup.
Issue: embedded images/ html images do not show in body of email. Please note that the issue does not rectify when pressing the show pictures button as nothing changes. All you will see is the box where the image would be and the blue question mark. The images seem to be in the attachments tab and i have the choice of view or save.
Has someone come up with a reason this happens and how to fix it?
Note also that the same exchange account is set up on my froyo htc desire and have no problems at all.
Thanks in advance
Im taking it that with no replies that no one is having this issue as described. Any help in relation to this original post would be greatly appreciated.

Ive noticed the same thing. We use html email sigs and out logo will do that. What i did was saved a copy of the logo ( same filename and everything) to my downloads folder. That fixes it for about 70%. Im guessing its an html render issue.
Ive got the same issue with my exchange email. All I see are boxes with blue question marks in the center. It's pretty aggravating that my EVO running 2.2 can display the same emails and images fine but 3.1 can't.
Has anyone tried another email client that you could recommend?

Touch Down works nice but I like the layout of the stock email client more. It bugs me that all apple products are fine in this area but android cant seem to get html email down..
I can't understand how i can have a froyo device and it works perfectly show all images etc as it should and have a honeycomb device that can't.
Just if someone ask's yes i do press show pictures and no it does not do anything. the actual emails grab all images and show them as attachements. I live on my email for work and this is to be honest CRAP effort of an email client for something so simple to not work.
Im asking anyone out there for any suggestions of a fix relating to this issue to help.

Hi,
Sorry to open a new topic but I've googled during hours and didn't find a response.
As some of you know, android 2.1 has a very annoying bug: It's unable to open eml files.
This prevent to read attached or forwarded exchange emails (*.eml files).
Does froyo solve this?
Can someone having a Froyo device test this ? (just attach an email to another one in exchange and send it to yourself) ie do a forward but with mail attached, not embedded
Google just said "enhanced exchange support for froyo"
I know that Touchdown for exchange can do this, but I would prefer a built in solution to propose Android as a real enterprise alternative.
Thanks a lot !
And this is a busniess phone?
I hope they get this working as this OS is useless to our company. Granted Google doesn't care about a small 15 person company but I would love to start using my Evo for work and have to carry around my old Treo 800w just so I can read a forwarded email.
Yes I know the work around is to just have them reply and change who it's going to but I can't do that for everyone that emails me because Google can't get this fixed.
nobody having a 2.2 can test this please ?
I have an EVO, upgraded to 2.2 yesterday. Opening .eml attachments still isn't working. Make sure you post a comment and vote for this bug on google project site:
goo.gl/I5DF
I can confirm the issue.
We just deployed a bunch of EVO's and some are having this issues and other are not.
When you forward an attachment lets say a .wav file it repackages the entire message and text into a .eml that the EVO can't open.
You can open it on the desktop.
All are running 2.2.
Damn sad if you ask me. Maybe it's a Microsoft thing and they need licensing to open a .eml extension.
Wow this is a huge issue for us that we were not aware of.
To clarify the eml format is only used when you forward a message with an attachment from the Android device when an exchange server is used. Forwarded messages from outlook are fine.
Apparently this has been an unresolved issue for some time.
Can post the link to but do a search for eml and android.
Looks like you can control this behavior in Exchange.
Anyone else know of a solution?

Doesn't seem to be a proprietary MS file format. See: http://filext.com/faq/decode_eml_files.php
A dev would probably be able to create an app to read these files pretty easily. Unfortunately, I'm not a coder.
Hey guys I'm running into a problem on my Infuse. For my emails that are like a day or more old the body just says "null" however I can still view them on my computer. This is a really bad problem because I do a lot of emailing on the fly. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to fix it? I'm using the stock app, not the gmail one.
On another note, I'm looking at my gmail account on the computer and ever outgoing message seems to show up twice in the threads and the sent folder.
Thanks
Tommy
I want to report something that I'm not sure is a bug. I guess I just need some advice
When using the AOSP-based Corporate email app, I'm getting unintentionally highlighted text in my messages
Example:
If I open my email app and search for "hello", I see all emails that contain the word "hello". Also, the text within the email "hello" is highlighted in yellow.
If I reply or forward that message, the highlighted text persists which can be seen by all recipients.
I can duplicate it on my friend's stock Galaxy Nexus and on my Galaxy S3. It happens with all AOSP based email apps (4.0+).
The really strange thing is that I can't find anyone online who is reporting the same thing. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
No idea but I find AquaMail to be a awesome email client, maybe switch if it meets your requirements?

It doesn't work for me. I need full Exchange 2010 integration and AquaMail only operates with IMAP / POP enabled. I'm wondering if it is just my Exchange server. I find it hard to believe that no one else has reported this. I'm wondering if maybe this was a "feature" added by Google and I'm just not seeing the value haha
Thanks for your reply
I searched everywhere but couldn't find a resolution to my problem. When I get pictures sent to me from my fiance's Iphone through the stock IMAP email client I can't view them on my phone (the message is blank with no picture or any tab to click to download picture) but they are fine through a computer. Just to test if it was a file issue I saved a picture that she sent on my computer then sent the picture to myself and I can view it on my phone. Is this an issue with how Iphones send a picture files?
Up for more looks, possible fixes, and/or ideas...
More specifically this is an AOL account.
Here is an example: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...attachments-standard-not-gmail-email-app.html
Apparently other android users aren't able to get email attachments from Iphone users. There isn't even the paperclip attachment showing up for the corresponding email in the list or actual email when I open it. You can see in the attachment.
I'm sure I could your a different email client but I prefer the native version.

Hi
I've searched for a solution to this problem and cannot find it. It either seems to work for people or it doesn't. As I understand it since a Gmail update at the end of last year this should work. So why isn't it for me?
The problem is when I receive a calendar invite in my email, on my old Galaxy S3 it would need to open the ICS in Calendar for me to be able to accept it. This was not ideal but it worked and I was never able to improve it. In my new Oneplus, it's even worse - if the invite is from Outlook I just get a blank email, with no ICS let alone yes/no options. From Google Calendar, I get weblinks and it takes me to a browser version of the calendar.
I cannot get my head round this, how can it be that the iPhone app by default has simple yes/no/maybe buttons that work in the email without jumping to any other app, but on Google's own phone it seems to have a problem with such a basic feature?
Please help, driving me mad! :crying:
Cheers
No-one?
OK, so can someone help me out with how this SHOULD work?
Here's what I see in the iOS app with an invite from Outlook:-
View attachment 2957495
And here is what I see in Android:-
View attachment 2957496
If the invite is from gmail, iOS works exactly the same but Android shows up like this, with weblinks:-
View attachment 2957497
Is this the same for everyone? If you see something different can you please post it and help me work out why I see something different? Surely Google's own OS should be able to handle calendar invites at least as well as it's app on iOS?!
Thanks!
Slightly shocked that not one person has replied with simply whether they see the same as me or not. Guess I'll have to go elsewhere
Same Here

In the past, I had "Invitation Plugin" installed to be able to add the invitations to my calendar. But now, since there is no attachment or .ics or anything, even that doesn't work. I get the same "blank" emails as you. This is very frustrating as my wife and I use invitations for everything. She sends them, and I have to get to a PC to open my Gmail to see (and accept) the invitations. Very frustrating when this used to work.
I hope somebody has some answer/workaround for this.
I found a workaround. There's an app called Cal by any.do. It's just a calendar app, but, it does have an indicator/filter that shows pending invitations and allows you to accept/deny and notifies the meeting chair. This is mildly better than searching the entire calendar trying to find the pending invite.
So, when the email comes in, pop over to Cal and do the needful. Not perfect, but better than where I was before.
Thanks for replying, nice to know I'm not alone in this issue Yeah me and the wife do exactly the same
Yep, Cal seems to provide a workaround of sorts, thanks for sharing it. Seems utterly nuts that Google should make their own solutions work better on a competitive platform to their own. Very very poor
If anyone else has any solutions or comments would love to hear them
Cheers
same problem here
I'm running the latest gmail update (v 5.0) on KitKat and I get the same problem - google calendar invites present a links only that take me to a webpage. on gmail for my iPad get big easy buttons to use. How is it possible that the experience is better on iOS than Android?
Same problem here. Confirmed that it is because the invitation is from Outlook. Why is there no solution? Seems like the bug is on the Android Gmail client.
Still no solution available in June - as far as I can tell - is this some kind of spat with Microsoft?
It's a real PITA whatever it is...not what I expected running the latest software versions available.

I am facing the similar issue. My problem is bigger - I get at least 30-35 outlook exchange invites on my gmail account and my Gmail App shows just the emails (it doesn't show the date and time) which is sad. All the time, I have to check the calendar app, open each invite / meeting requests and select - Yes / No / Maybe from the Calendar. I so wish that the Android Gmail App comes up with a simple feature (just like you have shown for iOS Gmail App.) so that at least we will know that the email which we have received is an actual Outlook Meeting invite and not a standard email. Can somebody please contact Google Android department and raise this issue? I have tried to report this on the official Google App. Gmail forum but no luck on their response so far.
Again, thanks for bringing this up here on XDA.
