anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

Hello jmarfink,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are talking about having issues sending messages in the Messages app on your iPhone after a recent update, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • Cannot send messages after crash, the solutions offered didn't work.

    On Tuesday (april 7) there was an update to 31.6. On Thursday there was a crash. Since then cannot send messages. The solutions offered didn't work.
    I'm getting the message that the SMTP-server doesn't support the selected authentication.
    I tried the solution mentioned. But nothing helps. I configured the outgoing server on the different types and deleted the password as mentioned. After that I did the configuration with the different types of configuration again. No solution.
    There is not a web-mail possibility. So I'm stuck now.
    There is no problem with the incoming messages, they are coming in. Should this password be deleted also?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Greetings,
    AZ58.

    Check with your email provider about the correct server settings, and compare that with your account settings.
    There is no point guessing or trying arbitrary combinations of settings.

  • "Cannot send message..." dialog stopped describing error in 10.4

    Previous to 10.4, Mail had basically the same "Cannot send message..." dialog box. You know, the one that lets you choose a different server, "Try Again Later" or "Edit Message". Anyway, back in Panther days, it would give you the actual error message, like these for example:
    554 Service unavailable; Client host blocked using sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org
    550 Invalid recipient: Recipient address rejected
    I suspect it was removed due to how un-consumer-friendly those message can be, but does anyone know of a secret preference or a plist edit I can do to get these back? They are indispensable when troubleshooting.

    Keep me in the loop to, I also like to know these techincal messages that may be helpful to my IT dept in the office; Because of this elimination in v10.4.3, for one period of time my Mail cannot send out external email outside of my office... and we went from "A to Z" trying to figure out what happen, in the end it was a simple change of MAC ID, because the IT dept finally realised I have actually changed my G4 to a G5 (machine upgrade), had those messages be available, it may cut down their time

  • "Cannot send message due to possible abuse"

    This error has resurfaced after a month of plague. I now cannot send any emails from Thunderbird, but can receive. I can send webmail via Yahoo which is NOT what I want. Obvioulsy my email address has got caught up in some wretched spammer and BT are blocking it. Googling the above reveals it is a common problem. Last time I changed my IP address but this did not cure it. Ideas most welcome.

    "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded:  Transaction failed : Cannot send message due to possible abuse; please visit for more information. Please check the message and try again."
    It is almost certainly a server issue of some form affecting some users. I expect the message is being received due to a strange condition being interpreted poorly by the system.
    It will have nothing to do with Classic or Enhanced webmail or anything to do with that, because that does effectively use a different method - also because it has "just" happened with users doing nothing different, that negates anything to do with it.

  • Disable mail.app message "cannot send message"

    Hi,
    I'm working offline from time to time, but Mail.app keeps generating these annoying messages saying that he "cannot send message" and that "the server cannot be contacted", after trying to send alert messages (generated by Calendar.app)
    Well I know that the server cannot be contacted.. that's because I'm not connected, because I don't have an internet connection.
    How can I disable these messages when I'm working offline? Quitting the Calendar and Mail.app does not work. Processes are working in the background I suppose. And choosing the "Try Later" option just suppresses the message for a while.
    What can I do?
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Open Activity Monitor, located in /Applications/Utilities.  Make sure you have All Processes showing in the drop down in the upper right.  Locate CalendarAgent (this is likely the one doing it) and Calendar (this one is the actual calendar app, so leave this one if you still want to view your calendars).  Select them and click Quit Process in the upper left.  That may do the trick.  Opening your Calendar will reopen both processes.
    If that doesn't help, you may want to repost this.  Some users may not look at the thread since it was marked as solved.

  • After the iOS6 update I cannot use messages on my iPad

    After the iOS6 update I cannot use messages on my iPad2 anymore. To not any person on my contact list. The message will not send.

    On your phone. Go to itunes, find the tone and it should have a little download sign next to it, not a money amount sign. Just re-download it. On your iTunes on your computer, check to make sure you have the "Sync tones" box checked.

  • Nokia N95 Cannot send messages

    Hi I hope this is the right place to post this!
    I can't seem to be able to send messages on my Nokia N95. I got it in the middle of December. Great phone and no problems whatsoever.
    However the other night I was unable to send messages. They would immediately go straight to the outbox and sit there saying they would resend.
    However it fixed itself randomly and began sending messages again. I did nothing. Kept the phone on changed no settings.
    Today though it's gone again and this time i haven't been able to send any messages for the past 12 hours. I can make calls, receive calls and receive messages I just cannot send messages.
    I've checked my message centre details. Everything is correct for my network 02.
    I tried my sim card in my other phone and it sends messages fine.
    You name it i've tried it...deleting message centres...adding new ones...it still just sends them straight to the outbox though!
    Any ideas anyone? i've googled it and it appears quite a few other people are suffering from this.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who replies

    Sorry, my fault, the code is indeed *#7370#
    As for the message problem, if you are getting the same issue after your restore, I would say it is probable a program or file that is causing the conflict and the only way to deal with that is by process of illimination.
    Start by removing the latest program you installed and so on.
    On PC Suite I can only restore the entire backup. How do I restore only parts of the backup? I really only need to keep my contacts. Everything else like the maps I can download again if need be.

  • "Cannot send message using the server....."

    Hi all,
    Considering the nature of the problem I am about to relate I would have to say at the outset that I would be very very surprised if other people have not come across this problem, so here goes...
    We have around 60 users of Apple Mail from both 10.4 and 10.5, so varying degrees of versions of Apple Mail however most if not all are updated to 10.4.11 and 10.5.2.
    We have been plagued with people being frustrated about emails bouncing back with an immediate error which is basically the following...
    "Cannot send message using the server smtp.xxx.com:user
    Sending the message content to the server failed.
    Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below etc etc"
    I am sure a lot of you have seen this error.
    However, it is totally random but I am at the end of my tether with it. It generally revolves around emails with attachments and can be totally random. I was trying to send a screenshot today, very small screenshot, using the Apple-Shift-4 technique, sent the .png file, then saved it out as a .jpg, nothing. Tiny file, around 5k. Got the error above, took it out, sent no problem. Other similar files on the desktop refused to send but a .pdf did. I then thought it might be our server, so sent teh same attachments using my .mac account. Same result and failed to send. Reports from other users in our group show that they too get random results, maybe moving the attachment in the email makes it go, sometimes putting it before your signature, sometimes putting your signature copied and pasted in so many times makes it work, all sorts of methods but all resulting in the same conclusion, Apple Mail can be very unreliable.
    We have even migrated some users to Entourage and the problem disappears. Even to Thunderbird, but those users miss the search capability as it is quicker and more reliable. So they want to go back.
    Considering I have been struggling with this issue back in the day when we were on the Apple Mail related version in 10.4 I was hoping that the version released in 10.5 would remedy the problems. Sometimes I feel it has just got worse.
    Is anyone else experiencing this sort of difficulty in Apple Mail, I really feel isolated and at a loss with how to remedy this for so many users.
    If anyone can share their experiences and how they have got around similar issues in Mail I am all ears and open to any suggestions.
    Thanks everyone for taking the time to read through this. There is more but the experiences are so random it is not worth trying to put it all down.
    Thanks again.

    I went in to Connection Doctor and. oddly enough, for this Mac account it said I was on Port 25. Si I changed it to Port 587 and saved the changes.
    Still, I have the same problem with the same error messages.
    I go back to the mail preferences > Accounts > Advanced and it shows Port 143 still there grayed out.
    What about SSL - it's not checked.
    Odd that this problem only seems to be from one .mac account emailing to another .mac account. Could the server be down?

  • Cannot send message using the server (null)

    i use mail 2.1.
    i have a .mac account and have three other email accounts attached to my mail account.
    lately, i cannot send any email.
    the switchiing ports fix hasn't helped either.
    this is the error message:
    CANNOT SEND MESSAGE USING THE SERVER (null)
    The server response was: 5.1.0 <email [email protected]>...
    From address does not match authentication.
    Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server. All messages will use this server until you quit Mail or change your network settings.
    Message from: email <[email protected]>
    Send message using: [there is a combo box here with all the four accounts servers listed]
    no matter which one i pick it doesn't work and no email is sent.
    anyone have this error before? or now how to fix it?
    i'd be appreciative.
    thanks

    I was having a similar problem (don't feel like typing all the details)
    I was about to to delete my com.apple.mail.plist, when finally it hit me.
    I ran ethereal (again, I'm sorry, but learning how to use ethereal is a topic unto itself). Following the TCP stream (ie. looking at the smtp messages being sent back and forth) I came across two problems. For some reason my port number was set to 567 or something like that, when it's supposed to be 25, as I had originally set it to.
    Once I corrected the port number I started receiving an error message from the smtp server. It said the return email address could not be authenticated. (using xyz.com as an example) The correct return email address was supposed to be [email protected], but for some reason it was changed to john@xyz in the account settings.
    Anyway, to get to the point, another thing to check is that your return address has been set correctly, and if all else fails, make sure you have X11 installed and use fink to install and run ethereal. This will let you know if you are actually connecting to the server, and will show you any error messages.
    PS. I think this problem started occurring with the last update made to mail. I believe it somehow corrupted my settings. This would explain how my port number could have been changed to the default port number of .mac mail.

  • "Cannot Send Message" from Verizon to Hotmail

    I see by reading this board that many others have problems with Verizon e-mail accounts. 
    When I try to send e-mails from my Verizon account into my Hotmail mailbox using an iMac, I get this message every time: "Cannot send message using the server e-mail."  The only thing it is letting me do is send an e-mail from one Verizon folder into another. It won't let me go from Verizon into Hotmail.
    I  checked with Apple tech support, and their claim is that Verizon is for some reason blocking the outgoing e-mail into MSN/Hotmail. 
    I checked out the options under 'Advanced Account Info' but am not tech-savvy enough to understand what I am looking at, and the bottom section tells me to get advice from a systems administrator. Could anyone tell me the best way to go about getting this advice?
    Thanks.

    We would want to make sure the mail settings are correct. I have sent you a private message to get more information.

  • Cannot Send Messages Using  the Server

    I am dependent (during the day) on a wireless connection to the Minneapolis Wi-Fi system (U.S. Wireless).
    I've got an e-mail account with comcast and I have successfully interfaced this with the Apple Mail application that came with OS X 10.5.4 and for many weeks have been happily sending and receiving e-mails. But....
    I've been on the road and had to connect with Hotel internet services and I was picking up free WiFi in NYC when I was there.
    I first noticed the problem when I was staying at a hotel in Vermont.
    I would try to send e-mails and I would get the message:
    CANNOT SEND MESSGE USING THE SERVER __________.
    Select a different outgoing mail server....
    Now, I am back home and using my U.S. Wireless connection (which has been really bad lately).
    I keep getting these blasted messages and my mail sometimes goes through but more than often, I get these "cannot send message.." notices and my e-mail just sits there going nowhere in the outbox.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Beside the SMTP name -- smtp.comcast.net -- there is a pair of arrows, with one pointing up and one pointing down. If you click on those arrows you will be presented with a list of all SMTP ever enter (you may only have one), and also the command to Edit Server List. If you choose Edit Server List, you will be presented with a completely new setup window, dealing only with SMTP servers, and that window will have two tabs, one of which is also Advanced.
    From the name, smtp.comcast.net, without your Username appended, would indicate that an Authentication of None is currently in effect. With changes that Comcast has made recently, whether you use Port 25 or Port 587, I believe you would have to use Password Authentication, most certainly if the latter Port 587 is chosen.
    If you click on the link below, although not for Comcast, you will nevertheless see in section 12 through 15, screenshots that cover the SMTP setup that I am describing above.

  • OSX Mail - Cannot send message using the server ....

    Hi there,
    Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.
    *Can receive mail, but can no longer send email* using the program Mail.
    Been getting the popup "Cannot send message using the server [shawmail.vc.shawcable.net] for the past 3 days. I hadn't changed anything about my computer, and have had the Mac for 2+ years. So this just started doing it on it's own.
    I had a technical support guy from my service provider even interface with my computer, where he could see my desktop right over the internet, and he couldn't get it fixed either.
    I googled this problem, and found solutions like:
    1. Uncheck "Use SSL" (Done that, and it was never checked "on" to begin with)
    2. Make sure Authentication is set to none, with no password (done that, and it wasn't set with a password to begin with)
    3. Delete [user]/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (done that, didn't do anything)
    4. We even totally deleted my account, and started a new fresh one. Didn't work
    The tech support guy did show me a way to email online, using the same email account. That worked, but it's a hassle to go onto a web-based email program -- it's not my preference. So, with great certainty, it's not my service provider, because I was able to send emails on this web-based email program using my email account.
    So there, I'm stumped.
    Hopefully someone can help. What's bizarre is that googling this problem, I have found many other people that say it happens arbitrarily, out of nowhere.

    I can't believe how ridiculous this issue is. i have been searching for days for a solution to this. i have tried EVERY recommendation on these forums and nothing works. It appears that this issue dates back to TIGER. I had this problem back in January and just bagged figuring it had something to do with iweb. I bought a new html program and was able to send out my newsletter last month no problem. Suddenly, one month later- here i am again, unable to send out my newsletter with no help from Apple or verizon, or these forims, or anyone else. To think that a company that I have stood behind and loved so much can't be be bothered fixing such a simple issue that has been going on now through  5 OS's (I am using Lion but I had the issue using leopard as well)  is a disgrace.
