My Iphone 4 will not let me send an email or reply to an email. The message states that it has put my email in my outbox and that my server does not allow for relaying. Can anyone help with this? I have read some other answers and nothing has worked Thanks

Your email provider has blocked the standard mail port 25 for sending emails and is requiring a different port. This is to avoid mail relays that use mail clients to send spam. You need to find the port that is used by your provider for sending outgoing mail. Then change the settings in your email account on your phone to match the port. You will also have to provide some security credentials for the account.
You can also try deleting the email account from your iphone, and the adding the email account back as this will many times set the correct port for sending emails.
You could also do a Google search on the the settings for your device with your email provider. That will provide you with the proper settings.

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?

What is "The recipient was rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying"?

What is "the recipient was rejected by the server because it doesn't allow relaying"? I am trying to send emails and get this message. I have noproblem recieving emails.

That means you have entered the wrong server information for your outgoing mail server. Contact your email provider an get the correct settings for a mobile device.

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.

App will not allow me to share photos with facebook? How do i fix this? It has always worked before until facebook did their update

Everytime I go to share, it acts like it's going to facebook then goes right back to the selected/choose page. Please help. Have already deleted app and reinstalled. Still not working!!

Some other users here have had to delete the new Facebook.app from their iPhone then log in to Facebook through the iPhoto.app and then reinstall the Facebook.app. It seems that iPhoto and the new Facebook.app are not cooperating.

I have 2 emai accounts which worked perfectly on iphone 4 but on iphone 5 my msn account wont let me reply to emails sent to that account, it leaves the message in my outbox saying recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

I have 2 email accounts which both worked perfectly well on my ipone 4 but since going over to iphone 5 my msn account will not allow me to reply to any emails. It places a message on my screen stating a copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipient @.com was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. Any ideas on how I can sort this. Would it be worth deleting my MSN account ant putting re-inputting the details again?

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.
