I keep trying to send emails and it says its rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying... Any ideas how to fix?

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.

HT1430 Email was rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying?

Why would my email that I am trying to send be rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying? What does that mean in English?

It means your email account doesn't have an authenticated SMTP server, which means it does not require a user name and password to send email with the account.
Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provied by the ISP being used at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
Who is the email account provider?

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.

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.

From which account does the email not send? When sending from an account, the iPad will first try to use the aoutgoing server for that account. If it can't it will try the other accounts listed.in the setting on the iPad for that account. It soulds like the server for the account is not working and that the alternate server is resjecting the messag since it did not originate ffrom the account associated with that server, That is to prevent sending spam.

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.

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.

Try this.
Check your username and password in the outgoing mail server setting. Fill it in even of it says that it's optional.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>choose the email account>account name, tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email username and password and see if that works for you.
