All of a sudden I can't send email from any of my accounts on both my iPad and iPhone?

I was able to send previously, and I am still able to receive for all 3 email accounts. Each is hosted by a different provider. I also have intermittent issues with my voicemail.

iOS 7.1.2, huh? It MAY be having some trouble with the iOS 8.x devices and latest iCloud features. Although it meets the minimum system requirements, it does not meet the recommended ones - System requirements for iCloud - Apple Support
You should try Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support - this is generally the first step in troubleshooting, all devices - for all time

I can not send email from my iPad . Have been using it for over a year, all of a sudden I can only receive email. I have a wifi connection in my home and have a A T &T cellular data plan?

I can not send email from my iPad . Have been using it for over a year, all of a sudden I can only receive email. I have a wifi connection in my home and have a A T &T cellular data plan?

I have a 1st gen iPhone that I just updated the software to 2.0.2
Now whenever I press the mail icon it goes to the mail app for about 4 seconds, does nothing, no loading of folders, old messages, nothing.
Then it reverts back to the home screen. Tried restarting, haven't tried restoring, thought I'd look here first.
Anyone???

All of a sudden i can't send email

all of a sudden i can't send email with my frontier accounts. it fetches incoming email fine but i can't reply or send new email. it just sits in the outgoing box never to be sent. i checked all my out going server- smtp.frontier.com, port-25, password and username settings with the isp and all are correct. even tried some new port numbers, was using 25, told to try 587 and 465 but none seem to work. i have 3 gmail accounts and they all work fine. is this a system failure with VZ or is something wrong with my droid x? or some other setting? please help. thanks, al

Email back to working again. I am able to send and receive with no issues. Strange behavior with email. No apparent reason for this happening other than the weather was bad yesterday, cloudy, overcast with thunderstorms. Maybe disrupted signal?

How can I send email from my yahoo alias account in iPhone5 mail?

How can I send email from my yahoo alias account in iPhone5 mail?
I have 2 email accounts: [email protected] is an alias of [email protected]
In my old iPhone3 I had these accounts set up so that I could send and receive email from both accounts. I did this using the following settings:
‘Other’ POP account info:
Name: xyz
Address: [email protected]
Description: alias
Incoming mail server:
Host name: pop.mail.yahoo.com
User name: [email protected]
Password: password for yahoo account
Server port: 995
Outgoing mail server:
SMTP: smtp.o2.co.uk (o2 is the name of my phone network)
Server port: 25
‘Yahoo!’ account info:
Name: xyz
Address: [email protected]
Password: password for yahoo account
Description: Yahoo!
Outgoing mail server:
Primary server: Yahoo! SMTP server
Server port: 465
I’ve tried using the same settings in my new iPhone5, but it doesn’t work. I can receive mail to both accounts, and can send from the Yahoo account, but I cannot send mail from the alias account. When I try, it displays the message: “Cannot send mail. A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipient ‘[email protected]’ was rejected by the server”.
I’ve tried to configure the POP alias account using combinations of ‘pop.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ and ‘apple.pop.mail.yahoo.com’, for the incoming host, and ‘smtp.o2.co.uk’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com’ and ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the outgoing mail server. None of these have worked.
I’ve also tried setting it up using IMAP instead of POP without success. I tried configuring it using combinations of ‘imap.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘imap.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ and ‘apple.imap.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the incoming mail server and ‘smtp.o2.co.uk’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com’ and ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the outgoing mail server.
Yahoo say that if I can't send Yahoo! Mail from my mail program, I may be accessing the Internet through an ISP that is blocking the SMTP port, and that if this is the case, I should try setting the SMTP port number to 587 when sending email via Yahoo!'s SMTP server. I don't think that this is the problem, but I tried it just to make sure - without success.
I’ve also heard that the problem might have something to do with the SPF settings of my alias domain provider. I’m not too sure exactly what SPF settings are, or how to change them, but from what I can gather it seems unlikely that this is the problem given that I was able to send mail from my alias account on my old iPhone3.
Any help much appreciated: how can I get my alias account to send emails in iPhone5 mail?
Many thanks,
Patrick

A new development: I've tried sending emails from the alias several times over the past 24 hours, but in general I've deleted them if they haven't sent within about half an hour.
However, one of the messages I left sitting in the outbox did send successfully in the end, but this took about an hour.
So: perhaps my problem is not in fact that I am completely unable to send mail from my alias, but that I can only do so intermittently and extremely slowly, and by ignoring the "cannot send" message.
Any help appreciated.

All of a Sudden I can't send emails! I can receive on imail, but not send. any ideas?

Hi everyone
I am having issues with my emails that I have set up on my Mac Book Pro.
I am able to receive them fine, but the SMPT server now won't send any.
This has happened in the past and I have just deleted the email account, and re-started it... which works fine, until 1 day then it suddenly stops sending again.
I'm fed up doing this however and want it sorted for good.
Does anyone have any ideas? Greatly appreciated!
Stuart

There are only two things that I can suggest.
The first is to try the Mail Setup Assistant.
The other is giving Mozilla's Thunderbird a shot - setup the account and see if it will work with this free email app. I don't like Mail at all - and it gives some people fits around here (I don't know how many times people have posted about problems with outgoing servers using Mail).
Try both methods - I don't use Mail - I use MS's Outlook (and, before that, Entourage). If the Setup Assistant offers no relief, just try Thunderbird and see if it works with it.
Good luck,
Clinton

Can't send email from one specific .mac account

I have two .mac accounts on three different machines. My main email account gives me "cant send with server smtp message..." use a different server. I can send just fine with my other .mac acct on the same machine. But I can't send from my main .mac acct on any of the machines or the web client at home or work. I have created a new user from scratch and set up the .mac acct on it and still get the errors. So it doesn't seem to be a problem specific to machine, user, or network. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
iMac intel Mac OS X (10.4.6)

In your Account setup (via Mail Preferences) you may have to set up an Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) entry. As an example I have a IMAP account and a POP account. The IMAP account has the server smtp.<imap_domain>.com and the POP account has mail.<pop_domain>.net.au. I also have other domain entries which come into play if I am visiting friends or colleagues and need to send or receive mail via their broadband links which have ISP's that differ to mine.

Can't send email from my personal pop3 account via my S5. Receives mail fine.

Hi,
I have an S5 that I use to receive email from my personal email account (supplied by Primelink). I can receive email fine, but can't send anything. My SMTP server is mail.wgtest.com using port 465. I am using K9 mail as my email app.
I was told by Primelink that it's a Verizon Wireless issue. Is there any way to respond to my emails from my phone? I can send via my hotmail account, but then my hotmail sent message folder gets filled up and the reply to address always shows up as my hotmail address, not the wgtest.com address.
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Spectre55

Thanks for the reply.
I have tried using three different email apps and keep getting the message that it can't connect to the server. I'm using the smtp address of mail.wgtest.com. As I said, I can receive fine, but Primelink told me that Verizon won't let me send from my primelink account through their system. They said I may have to use an smtp relaying service, which I've never heard of.

Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library, Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library

I have set up itunes match usiing my Windows laptop and synced my iphone 5 and ipad 3 with it, but quite a few songs (albums and songs within albums) haven't synced at all. Is this a known issue? Also when I try to update match it takes forever and often tells me that the internet connection has timed out, yet I'm still surfing on other devices etc...

Hi Michael
It's not through USB - I know that that is disabled when Match is enabled. An example might deonstrate the issue better:
I can see Alabama Shakes listed in my artists view on my phone/pad library, but when I open it the songs are all greyed out and won't play. Their is no cloud symbol either. On my laptop, the songs are their and play fine, but have a cloud symbol next to them...
What do you reckon?

Suddenly I can't send emails on mac mail iCloud account. Actually I can, but only one line of text!!

It's really odd. I can send a 'blank' mail, even one with a few lines. Anything more than that and the activity window shows it 'trying' to send then it just stops. If I then try to send a short mail after any larger one this is also stopped. As an aside I also note from the activity window that mail appears to be downloading 1000's of messages but I don't see where these go. I have a few machines and all of them are experiencing the same issue. I have attempted uninstalling the account and then reinstalling it but no change. Does anyone know what this could be as it really is driving me nuts! I have used macs and mail for years and it's all been good until now.

Apple sent an update for iMac and after installing it my e-mail is working fine.

Hi there, suddenly I can't send email from my iphone. I use mac mail, have deleted it, restored it, done a sync to my mac book, read endless help paged and still get the message *unable to connect to smtp.me.mail . Some one please help!!!

Does anyone know why my mac/me mail would suddenly stop sending mail? Happend a few weeks back since the software update and now won't send a thing. LIke I said I deleted the acount, set it up again, did a sync to my mac book, checked settings again and still it wont send mail. Received fine.
I've looked through the threads but cant find one for me/mac mail on the iphone with same problem

I spoke with Apple Support this morning and they believe anything MobileMe related is due to the conversion over to iCloud that's taking place.
As for other email clients, check with your host to see if settings have changed on their end. I use inmotionhosting.com and over the weekend the updated their outgoing requirements so that a password authentication is now needed.
Hope that helps get some on the right path to resolving their issues!

Can't send email from any account in Mail app

Suddenly, a couple of days ago, Mail started refusing to send mail in my .Mac account. I changed nothing in terms of settings and the way I do stuff. Receiving has been unaffected.
I'm at a loss to think what it could be... any ideas?
Thanks.

Sure your ISP provides some POP and/or IMAP accounts with access to an SMTP server as part of the service. Have you tried sending with that?
In an attempt to fight spam, many ISPs restrict the ability to send using an outgoing (SMTP) server not owned by them, usually by blocking port 25 for all traffic outside their own network, which means you cannot send with an SMTP server not owned by them if configured to use that port number.
Something that often works is changing the outgoing server port to 587 (or whatever alternate port number the outgoing server listens to) instead of 25 and using some form of authentication in Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server > Server Settings, but two conditions must be satisfied for this change to work: (1) the ISP must not block that port as well AND (2) the outgoing server in question must listen to that port and accept a form of authentication not based on the IP address you’re connecting from.
Independent mail service providers not tied to a particular ISP, such as .Mac and Gmail, do allow authenticated SMTP access on port 587, which is the reason changing the outgoing server port number solves the problem for them if the ISP doesn’t block that port as well:

All of a sudden, I can't upload videos from my iPhone 4. I can send them in emails and messages, but not to my computer or Facebook (Serious! I know.) Have I done something wrong, pushed a button that I shouldn't have?

All of a sudden, I can't send e-mails on my I-phone. I can receive e-mails. My I-pad works fine for e-mails (receiving and sending) and so does my Outlook. What's the deal?

check the settings in your mail settings, outgoing server. If your ipad is ok, compare the settings with the ones on the phone
