Sending emails from a .me account to a .mac account
Hello,
For some reason, every time I send an email from my .me account to a .mac account, it gets kicked back with the following reason:
Reason: unknown or illegal alias
Can anyone help me with this? It's proving to be quite a problem!
Cheers.
If you create an account in Mail it should import all your data.
Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab, click on the '+' button to add an account. To set up the account you'll obviously need your email address and password. It's possible that Mail will then be able to auto setup the account. If it can't you'll need to do it manually adding the pop or imap and smtp server addresses.

Mail can't send email from 123-reg accounts
Hi all,
I've got an issue with Mac Mail can’t send email from 123-reg accounts.
I know there is a lot of articles on simular matters and some I have tried out with no luck, others are just speaking a whole other language.
Any help would be greatly recived, here's my situation below:
Running a iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core i5 on OS X 10.8.3
I’m using 3 accounts on Macs Mail client, one is my iCloud account that is working fine and the other two are my 123-reg accounts that I use for business purposes. I’ve been working like this for a couple of years now and about 6 months ago I upgrade my operating system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
2 or 3 months ago I randomly got a problem where I was unable to send any emails from my 123-reg account, I could only receive emails. I checked my settings and they were all correct and unchanged so I attempted to delete them and recreate the account but with no such luck.
I then decided to check if it was a problem at 123-regs end and attempted to log into web mail. This worked and was able to both send and receive emails so eliminated that possibility.
I also have these accounts set up on my iPhone, so checked if there was any issues and everything was working fine. I then checked my iphone details and made sure the same was on my desktop and still no such luck.
I’ve tried out some of the articles I’ve found on here (the ones written in plain English) still no results. I’m not very IT illiterate and just wondered if anyone else has got any ideas, whether there is something specific with 123-reg accounts and Mac Mail?
Many thanks.Thanks
I just had another hunt around looking at posts and discovered that it was because I recently changed to BT Infinity and they had a block on.
I didn't even think to question the ISP.

I just set up a second email account on the same iPad but cannot seem to see, read or send email from the second account.
I'm using Windows 8 (not 8.1) and whatever the latest Thunderbird version is. They're both IMAP accounts. I was using Windows Live, but I couldn't get that to work, so I switched to TB. It works JUST fine for the one account, but not the other! They're identical except for the "handle". Both off my local ISP, set them up at the same time.

I have set up two email accounts on my iphone4, one with tiscali, my ISP, and the other on gmail. I am able to receive emails on both accounts, and can send emails from my gmail account, but am "Unable to Send Email" from my tiscali (talktalk) account. I get the error message "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address "name"@tiscali.co.uk was rejected by the server".

cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6. it was working up until a few days ago and now refuses to load on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4S
in the process deleted all my contact, very annoying.
all help is much appreciated.
interesting that my gmail account does work perfectly.this may or may not help - but give it a try. On a forum some were reporting that talk21 is now under the yahoo umbrella. below are the steps this use listed. (This was an android forum, but the email settings should be the same. In short it looks like their server names have changed. An existing account may have simply been forwarded - but if you are reinstalling, it may want a clean install to the right servers.) Pay particular attention to the server names and port settings. (this thread was started based on a discussion of Imap vs pop - you are already an Imap person - so ignore that part)
See if this helps.
why settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3. The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3. This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi.
This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP.
Incoming server settings
IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 143
Security type - none
Outgoing Server settings
SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 25
Security type - none Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
and enter your talk21 username and password The End...works a treat for me p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around. -

In my iPad 2 with IO6 today I can not send emails from my gmail account, they go to the outbox directly...why? How can i solve this problem? ..I restarted the IPad but the problem was not solved. Please help.
Greetings,
Questions:
1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
3. Do you use MobileMe/ iCloud or another server based sync solution like Google or Yahoo?
4. Do other changes to synced information like Address Book content sync successfully back and forth?
Based on your description it sounds like you have a 1 way sync issue. Events sync fine between the iOS devices and fine from the computer to the iOS devices but not from the iOS devices to the computer.
Try:
Backup your computer and iOS devices before doing anything else:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Ensure all the devices in use are fully up to date: Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update
Make separate backups of critical data:
Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
Reset syncing on your Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
Reply back if that does not resolve your issue.
Hope that helps. -
Sending emails from my Gmail account set up in Outlook 2007
Ever since I have signed up for Fios, I have been unable to send emails from my Gmail account I have set up in Outlooks. I have tried changing the outbound port from 25 to others to no avail. Can anyone please help?

-My incoming mail works fine, and my account type is set to IMAP & incoming server is IMAP as well - will that screw things up?
-I changed the settings on the outgoing servers to match exactly the directions at the google website instructions you linked me to, and I get the following error:
"Send test e-mail message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP)."
IMAP or POP on the incoming shouldn't make any difference for outging. If it's working, don't mess with it.
I looked at the page for IMAP settings as well, and they still say smtp.gmail.com on port 587 with TLS enabled and authenticate with same settings as incoming.
Do you have any security software installed? Some of those programs run a scan on outgoing messages that can cause a timeout. Try temporarily disabling your security software to see if that resolves the issue. Either way, enable it again when done testing. If that fixed the issue, you can try increasing the timeout limit in the Outlook settings, or try adjusting the settings on your security software based on their instructions.
If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem.

C#: Sending email from a specific account when multiple accounts exist in Outlook?
Somehow I accidentally deleted this message trying to edit it... sorry.
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application outApp = null;
outApp = Marshal.GetActiveObject("Outlook.Application") as Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application;
MailItem mailItem = (MailItem)outApp.CreateItem(OlItemType.olMailItem);
mailItem.Subject = "Director Script Confirmation Request";
mailItem.To = person;
mailItem.Body = message;
//mailItem.Display(false);
mailItem.Send();
How do I send email from a specific account when multiple accounts exist in Outlook?
Below is the code that I have. I think I'm supposed to use the AddressEntry or AddressEntries to designate where emails are sent from. However, at the moment, I haven't found an example.
SVHello SV,
The MailItem class provides the
SendUsingAccount property which allows to set an Account object
that represents the account under which the MailItem is
to be sent. Here is what MSDN states:
The SendUsingAccount property can be used to specify the account
that should be used to send the MailItem when the Send method
is called.
Sub SendUsingAccount()
Dim oAccount As Outlook.account
For Each oAccount In Application.Session.Accounts
If oAccount.AccountType = olPop3 Then
Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem
Set oMail = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
oMail.Subject = "Sent using POP3 Account"
oMail.Recipients.Add ("[email protected]")
oMail.Recipients.ResolveAll
oMail.SendUsingAccount = oAccount
oMail.Send
End If
Next

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.

Why does iCloud send emails from my other accounts?
I send emails from my gmail or sbcglobal account and then can't find them. in some cases the recipient does not get them.
in other cases the person swears they responded but i did not get the email.
yesterday I hit the "iCloud" email by mistake and discovered that iCloud is sending them from a .me address!
how do I disable this???
and, why does this happen in the first place?
thanks.hi! thanks for your reply, pvonk, but I am not sending from the .me address, I am selecting the gmail or sbcglobal address from my options - but .me is sending it instead! it is defaulting to the .me address regardless of what i pick. I find this disturbing. is it something Apple is doing? thanks for any insight.

Load x# of messages when sending email from my pop account
Hi
I'm getting a "load x# of messages" when sending email from any address on my pop account. No problem receiving messages from other accounts. Is there a setting that can remedy this?
ThanksMy z10 is going back today, for multiple reasons
Contacts won't sync across
Won't work properly with my car when all previous BBs did
Lots of useful features have disappeared
But most importantly NONE of my email accounts will send mail from it when they all did previously with the Storm2.
A big thumbs down from me for the z10 even if it is a fancy looking phone and the browser is much better. I stuck with BB because I wanted a tool not a toy -

Cannot send emails from my corporate account with Smartphone Lenovo K920 (Vibe Z2 Pro)
Hi All,
I bought a Smartphone Lenovo K920 (Vibe Z2 Pro).
I have configured my hotmail account and everything is working perfectly.
But for my corporate email account (with IMAP Settings), incoming emails are ok but when I try to send emails, I get the message "email failed to send".
For information, I have used the same settings on my Android tablet and everyting is fine from this side.
Does someone has the same issue?
Thanks.How to sync contacts and calendar with CloudMagic?
....Security must be blocking CloudMagic from accessing contacts&calendar.You're using contacts from the Gmail account I suppose.
Go to the Security app>Privacy Guard and set CloudMagic as ''Trusted'' or grant CloudMagic access to Personal information.
Then go to Settings>scroll down to Accounts and resync the Google and CloudMagic accounts.
Let me know how it goes.
Cheers
