I cannot send e-mailfrom my 3G. I'm an error rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying.  Does someone have a fix?

I am getting a server rejecting my email because it doesn't allow relaying. Does someone have a fix?
Thanks.

Head to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, and Calendars and tap on the account having the issues sending email. On the proceeding view, click Account button that lists the email address at the very top of the screen.
Then scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server and make sure the correct outgoing mail server is set as the Primary mail server for the account.  Lastly, make sure all other smtp servers listed are turned Off.

    There is something else that can cause this issue. Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • I cannot send or reply to e-mails. The recipient was rejected by the server because it dows not allow relaying

    I cannot send or reply to emails. I get an error message that reads "A copy has been put in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Your outgoing mail server settings are incorrect. Go to the settings for the email account and look at the SMTP settings. Most likely you did not enter your user id and password. While it says "optional" that's only from the iphone's point of view; it probably isn't "optional" from the point of view of your email provider.

  • Since upgrade to iOS 7 Email error on over 100KB emails "Cannot Send Mail  The message was rejected by the server because it is too large." Connecting to Exchange via Activesync

    Hi,
    Following the upgrade to iOS 7.0.3 on all our iPhone and iPad devices, it has been identified that when sending emails around 100KB in size and over an error message appears on the device stating “Cannot Send Mail  The message was rejected by the server because it is too large.” See error message below. The send/receive limit is over 10MB so this is not the issue.
    We are in an Exchange Environment using Microsoft Activesync. This issue is not evident in iOS 6. This has been tested on an iPhone 3GS running version iOS 6.1.3. We have been unable to repeat the issues seen on iOS 7 on the older OS. It is not possible to roll back to the older operating system as Apple are no longer signing the software.
    We use Microsoft Active Sync to connect to our Exchange servers through a TMG. The issue is very inconsistent, some identical emails go through, some fail. This is not an issue with the send/receive limit as this is over 10MB. The error message when it fails on the TMG is Status: 413 Request Entity Too Large, which we believe is from IIS on the CAS server.
    Does anyone have any suggest course of actions to take?
    Many Thanks

    This resolution have to attend at the server not with the ios device. My employer's mail administrator reject me to correct it from the server. As his concern is, if ither ios devices works why don't mine? So I am helpless than changing my iphone. It works fine for early versions of ios and with androids. And also one of my friends iphone4 with ios 7 (similar as mine) works too. So I guess it's something wrong with my iPhones settings. But basic question I cannot understand is it works in my phone before this ios7 upgrading. And currently working with my yahoo account too. Favourable reply expected.

  • I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How can I fix this error so I can send emails.

    The issue definitely sounds like your Outgoing/SMTP settings need to be changed.  Simply set them to the proper settings for your provider as was suggested above.
    I found this link for Knology:  http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
    The SMTP settings can be edited on the iPad/iPhone by going to Settings--> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, edit the account having trouble, click the Account, then at the bottom is the SMTP server info, click on it to edit it further.
    It should allow you to edit the primary smtp server and let you enter all the good stuff as you see in the Knology link above.
    Some providers require you to register your account on their service like AT&T.

  • IPhone4 when replying or forwarding mail messages i get a message that says Cannot Send Mail address rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    When forwarding mail this is what i get
    Cannot Send Mail
    A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipent _________________(email address) was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.
    Never had this problem before so not sure whats going on. Appreciate any help out there.

    Sounds like there is something wrong with your SMTP server. Try going into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select the email account in question, go to the Outgoing server (SMTP) and check the settings. It may be you do not have a username and password in one of the areas. The phone may say optional in a couple, but it is usually mandatory. You can also try a reset on the device, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If neither of these work, then you will need to delete the account, then delete the SMTP server, then add the account back, ensuring you use your username and password everywhere, even when it says optional.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • How do you fix Iphone 4s to send email if everytime you try, it responds email was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying?

    Question - When I try to send an email on my Iphone4S, it responds "Cannot send mail.  A copy has been placed in your Outbox.  The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying."  How do I fix this problem?

  • HT1430 I receive emails but when I try to send emails, I get a box that says that the "recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying"

    I can receive emails over AOL but cannot send them. When I do, I get a box that says "recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying"

    That's because you did not enter your screen name and password for the outgoing (SMTP) mail server on the phone. Or if you did they got erased. Go to Settings for the account and enter them.

  • What do I do when trying to send a reply email and it won't send because it doesn't allow relaying?

    What do I do to be able to send a reply email when the response is it doesn't allow relaying?

    Try this and see of you can get the reply to go through.
    http://appletoolbox.com/2012/01/server-does-not-allow-relaying-email-error-fix/
    How to fix
    If this is an AOL issue, try these: go Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select your AOL.com account > SMTP from the Account Info Page > SMTP from the SMPT Page > make sure that the Server is ON, make sure that the Host Name is smtp.aol.com. Further make sure your username and password are correct and added in the Outgoing Mail server; make sure that Authentication is set to Password and make sure that Server Port is 587
    If this is not an AOL email: go Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts >Account Info > SMPT> turn off primary server, turn on other (e.g. AT&T) SMTP server.
    Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Your Account > Outgoing mail Server SMTP > Primary Server then turn Server ON and fill in both User Name and Password under Outgoing Mail Server.
