Able to receive mail in but cannot send mail out

Have followed all instructions setting up Orange mail and entered details for both incoming and outgoing servers.
Mail comes in OK but when I reply or write a new email I receive a message:
" A copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient xxxxxxx was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying"
xxxxx is the mail addres I want to send to, however it's all email addresses I want to send to, not just one specific address.
How can I overcome this please?

So into Setting for the email account on your iPad. Go to advanced settings and make sure SSL is on. See if that works. Some accounts may have off. This works in hotmail which is a POP3 account.

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

N8: can receive mail (IMAP), but cannot send mail ...

LS
Bought a new N8 yesterday. Configured the email (XS4All.nl) using the secure settings provided by the ISP.
IMAP works just fine, however SMTPS does not; it is impossible to send emails.
N8 was updated first to latest firmware version.
Within the outgoing mail settings the SMTPS mailserver requires SSL on port 465; however after putting in manually 465 as portnumber, closing the application, and opening the application again, going to the outgoing mailsettings, the port says "standard" again . In other words the manual input of portnumber 465 does not seem to be saved by the system.
This could be the reason for not being able to send mail, as the standard port will not work.
How can I be certain that manually typed settings are saved by the system (and be able to check that), as in this case the system seems to revert to its standard settings automatically?
My previous Nokia 5800 had no issues at all with the account settings of the same emailbox and worked flawlessly.
Thank you for your attention (and hopefully fedback on how to solve this issue).
Kind regards,
Lia
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Removal of email box, re-start of device, configuring "new" email box did not solve the issue.
All outgoing messages stay in the Outbox......
Anyone....notably someone from NOKIA (afterall it is their product.....),
regards,
Lia

I can receive mail on my bellsouth account on my iPad, but cannot send mail

Why is it I can receive email, but cannot send? My account is with Bellsouth.net

Hello, sounds like you haven't switched to iCloud yet, the old dot Mac & MobileMe servers are going away or gone for most already.
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

IPad receives mail just fine, but cannot send mail

I am using a POP3 server with shaw (the server for both incoming and outgoing mail is shawmail.vc.shawcable.net) and, as stated in the title, my iPad will not send any mail. It refuses to interact with the SMTP server. It says "Cannot Send Mail The connection to the outgoing server "shawmail.vc.shawcable.net" failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings > Mail, Contacts Calendars."
I have already tried everything that I have found already suggested on these forums and others, including inputting both a username and password for the SMTP server, changing the port to 25, and restarting my iPad after each of these changes. All of the settings on the iPad match those on my mail program perfectly (which works without a hitch, and has been for some time now.) I am connected by Wi-Fi to my home network, the exact same router I use to get my mail on my personal computer.
One other detail: whenever I change the settings for the SMTP server in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, it says that the SMTP server does not support password verification, which is just plain untrue. What is wrong with my iPad?

What did your email provider, Shaw, say or suggest about settings needed for the iPad?

Can receive text msgs but cannot send!?!?

A few days ago I began to be unable to send text msgs. Using iPhone 3G, it appears that the 'send' button is dithered 'greyed' out. I tap it but nothing happens. I can email, and obviously type text online (as here) but cannot 'send' text. I deleted MSG history, cleared cache, cleared recent calls, cleared email history to no avail. I can receive text just dandy but cannot send. Can anyone shed some light here or do I go see the 'geniuses' at the store and get a new phone. ( it seems every time I have a phone problem like this, they can't fix it they just give me another phone) Would really like to not have to go to the store. Thanks in advance for anyones help!

I would try a few basic things before scheduling an appointment with the Genius Bar.
1) Sync your iPhone with your computer. I have noticed that sometimes my phone will have a hiccup and when I sync it, whatever was wrong automatically rights itself.
2) Reset your iPhone holding down the "home" button and the Sleep/Power button on the top right side of the phone at the same time. It takes about 5-15 seconds and you want to make sure you hold down both buttons until you see the apple logo, ignore the slider.
3) Plug your iPhone into the computer and perform a phone restore. There are 2 options for this:
a- If you know when this problem started with your SMS messaging you can restore from a backup that was done on a previous sync. Chose a date prior to this issue starting and restore your phone to how it was on that date.
b- If you don't know when this issue began or restoring it to an earlier date does not fix the problem you can restore it to how it was when it came out of the box.
I hope that one of these things is able to solve your problem with SMS messaging. If none of these fixes the problem you should schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar and get this resolved with them. If you visit the Genius Bar make sure to sync your iPhone just prior to your appointment so if they need to replace the iPhone you don't lose any calendar entries, recently added contacts, pictures, etc.
Good luck!

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 have incoming mail on BT but cannot send anything out. What do I do?

I have had problems with my BT account. First of all, everything in my mailbox on my iPad , all files, disappeared last night. I deleted the BT account then reinstalled it and seemingly have sorted my problem. Today I find I can receive but not send on my iMac. I did what I did for the iPad - deleted the account then reinstalled, but it is not working for me with the iMac - I am being told there is a problem with my SMTP. It all seems fine, passwords OK, SSL boxes ticked. I have BT internet, Yahoo, Gmail and iCloud on both machines. Nothing from any of these accounts is currently being sent. Can anybody help please? B Brigden

Chances are it's a corrupt mail account preference. In Mail - Preferences - select the account- and re-enter all the preferences for that account even if they appear to be OK.

I have no trouble receiving mail on my iPad 2 but cannot send mail.

I have turned on all the SMTP servers and re-booted the device but can't send outbound mail. Oddly though, I can send outbound mail using QuickOffice.
Does anyone have suggestions?
Thanks
