I can recieve e-mails but not send/reply e-mails

Have not been able to send e-mails, get message that user name or password is incorrect. But am using same name and pasword as on my laptop. Any ideas?

I fixed a similar problem by going into Preferences and then Composing and unchecking the box that says: "Send outgoing messages using Unicode (UTF-)"

  • Why can I receive emails but not send them?

    I have an iPhone 4, and I recently updated to iOS 7. Since the. I have not been able to send any emails. I am able to receive them, but not send them. I keep getting an error message saying that something is wrong with my password or username. I have tried to hard restart the phone, revert to a backup from before I updated the phone, and also deleted all emails and redid them, all with the same result. What should I do, and if it's a consistent problem with the new system, when is Apple going to fix it?

    Yes, I have tried everything the sites have said besides taking it in to the Genius Bar. I tried hard restarting it, making sure my internet connection worked, moving off and on other networks, used an old backup to when I had iOS 6, deleting al my email accounts and adding them back, none of it has worked.

  • Why can I receive iMessages but not send them?

    I'm signed into Apple ID for iMessages and have both wifi and cellular data available but I can't send iMessages! I'm receiving them but can only respond by text. FaceTime is also working!

    Macrumors posted a solution for this.  I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
    Here's what they said:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

  • Why can I receive email but not send

    Can receive email to Mail program but can't send. The Doctor says my internet connection is open.
    Any ideas?

    If it says that it can't send the message or that it had some sort of problem sending the message add a letter or word or take off a letter or word.
    Make sure that firewall isn't blocking anthing.

  • All of a Sudden I can't send emails! I can receive on imail, but not send. any ideas?

    Hi everyone
    I am having issues with my emails that I have set up on my Mac Book Pro.
    I am able to receive them fine, but the SMPT server now won't send any.
    This has happened in the past and I have just deleted the email account, and re-started it... which works fine, until 1 day then it suddenly stops sending again.
    I'm fed up doing this however and want it sorted for good.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Greatly appreciated!
    Stuart

    There are only two things that I can suggest.
    The first is to try the Mail Setup Assistant.
    The other is giving Mozilla's Thunderbird a shot - setup the account and see if it will work with this free email app. I don't like Mail at all - and it gives some people fits around here (I don't know how many times people have posted about problems with outgoing servers using Mail).
    Try both methods - I don't use Mail - I use MS's Outlook (and, before that, Entourage). If the Setup Assistant offers no relief, just try Thunderbird and see if it works with it.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Can receive Viber messages, but not send?

    Hi all,
    Last week my friend in the UK lost her phone, got a new one and re-installed Viber.
    Since then I can receive her Viber texts, but when I try to reply I get a pop-up saying that 'this contact no longer has Viber installed...'!  This obviously seems nonsensical. 
    She can also call me on Viber, and appears in my Viber contact list.  However if I attempt to send her a Viber message and get the pop-up above, her name suddenly disappears from the contact list!
    I have today updated my Viber to the latest version, in case my Viber was somehow out-of-date with hers, but the problem persists.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,

    I started having the same problem today. I have been using Viber for some time now without any problmem both on wifi and 3G and starting today I'm not able to use it. I have an iPhone 4s and have the latest version of Viber installed on it.
    The messages get stuck at "Sending" and after a while turns put to red color with an error "Not sent".
    I tried uninstalling and re-installing viber but of no use. After the re-install it is not syncing my contact list nor working. Could some one help?

  • Mail recieving but not sending on Yahoo account!

    Hi,
    I have had my Yahoo email set up and running fine through Mail for the last year or so. However for the last couple of days I can receive email's but not send them.
    I have three yahoo accounts and it's the same on all three. I've tested the connection settings and they're all fine. I've even deleted the accounts from Mail and set them up again from scratch.
    I get the following error:
    *'Sending the message content to the server failed.*
    *Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be delivered.'*
    Anyone else getting this problem?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Steve

    In order to prevent spam and address spoofing, some mail systems are now being set to disallow 'relay'
    That is, sending to another host via an intermediate account.
    Example: Your mail account is [email protected]
    You are popping mail from [email protected] You get a message at your yahoo address from [email protected]
    When you try to reply to the yahoo message from your host.com account, you are trying to use host.com as an intermediate to yahoo.com, which will in turn send the reply to [email protected]
    you are thus asking host.com to relay a message from [email protected] to [email protected]
    In reality, host.com has no idea who [email protected] is.
    So it refuses to allow an unknown user from a foreign system to use it's mail server to send to a 3rd mail server. This is considered relay, and it's a favorite tactic for spammers.
    That may be why you are told to "select a different outgoing server"

  • Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have had not problem until today.  I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?

    Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have not had problems until today.  I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?

    I have been having the exact same problem for weeks now with gmail.  None of my computers will send Gmail (they will recieve) and my Maverick computers (10.9.1) show gmail smtp.gmail.com as "offline".  I had installed Post Box and apple support thought it was that i had too many accounts (I have 2 ipads, an iphone (latest iOs), a work and home iMac and a powerbook).  I disabled all my gmail accounts in Mail and still no go from PostBox either . I tried connection doctor and it just spins for outgoing and say I either haveve the wrong pw or login - I dont.  I terminaled and tested port 465 (according to gmail instructions) and it works (port 25 did not).  I can access gmail from the webmail and send/recieve mail from it and it shows up in my webmail outbox. It is configured for imap.I just cannot send mail at all from any gmail account from any apple device using Mail (or PostBox). I am at a loss as was the apple support person who wished me good luck very politely and sympathetically.

  • Can recieve but not send email with Airport

    Hi there,
    I'm currently using my mac to connect to the internet via an airport express configured on my partners powerbook, it all works fine to connect to the internet and to recieve emails through 'Mail' but i can't send any...
    Could anyone offer any advice on how to reconfigure my settings to allow me to use my emails properly?
    Incidently, the existing network connection i'm now using is through BT internet whereas my account is with virgin.net.
    Why can i recieve mail but not send?
    OK, hope someone can help...
    Thanks, steven.

    Without you being specific about your problem, I am guessing you have the same problem I had. You can look at the following
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75124
    or describe the error message that comes up when you send e-mail.

  • After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
    From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
    I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
    I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite.

  • Can receive but not send mail

    Because of buyout, had to switch over from Adelphia to Comcast this weekend. With the help of Comcast, reset Mac mail on both G4 and G3 running OS 10.4.9. Got everything finally working Sunday, but today, G4 will not send.
    Error: "Message could not be delivered, will remain in Outbox until it can. Connection to server "smtp.comcast.net" on port 110 timed out." Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I, too, got caught up in this Comcast busines. When I reset my Mail preferences per their instructions, I found that I could receive e-mail but not send it. After spending almost an hour with TWO of their so-called technical people, I was told that mine was an OEM problem and there was nothing else that Comcast could do for me.
    YET, by changing the server port from Comcast's recommended 587 setting back to 25 (which it had been when I was with Time-Warner), I could then send e-mails!
    Relieved but irritated,
    Bill

    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try the following:
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Windows 8], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-vista Windows Vista], [http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true" Windows XP], [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 OSX]
    ; If safe mode for the operating system fixes the issue, there's other software in your computer that's causing problems. Possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as program updates.
