error 10673

Is there an Apple Tech or Guru out there that can give a solution to receiving this error code when trying to open an attachment on a Mac Book? in lieu of exclusively using Safari?

Hello LoveBread,


Issues with Mac Mail can be caused by many factors, but as a starting point, we have a great support article that might help with this. Please take a look at it here: If you can’t send or receive email on your Mac - Apple Support. Follow this guidance:


"Check for status messages

You might see a status icon such as a lightning bolt  or warning symbol  next to your account's inbox in the Mail sidebar, or in the upper-right corner of the Mail window. Click it to learn more.

  • If the status is Network Offline, make sure that your Mac is connected to the internet.
  • If the status is Login Failed, check with your email service provider (ESP) to be sure that your account is set up correctly on your Mac.
  • If Mail asks for your password, but entering the password doesn't help, find out why your email provider is rejecting your password.
  • If your email service is experiencing a temporary outage, your email provider might have a status message on their website. For example, Apple's system status page shows the status of iCloud Mail. Status pages are also available for other email services, such as Gmail and Outlook. Some brief service outages might not appear on a system status page, so you might want to try again later.



Test using webmail

Many email providers offer webmail, which is a way to use email with a web browser such as Safari, instead of with an email app such as Mail. For example, if you're using an iCloud Mail account, you can use iCloud.com to send and receive email.

Webmail is a good way to verify that your account is valid, but it doesn't mean that your account is set up correctly in Mail on your Mac. Your email provider can help you verify your email settings and check for other issues that affect sending or receiving email.



Remove your email account, then add it back

If no other solutions work, follow these steps:

  1. Remove your email account in Mail.
  2. Add your email account in Mail again. When adding the account, make sure that you choose the correct email service provider for your email address.
  3. Try to send and receive email."



We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
