i'm sorry it has taken me so long to respond
i was under a deadline
and i had to come up with a backup plan to send out these emails(KINKOS)
anyway to follow up
thank you again for the suggestions
i did log in with another user account and a new email account and found that there was still a problem
which i took to mean that there was a problem outside of my system
while this was going on i somehow erased all of my inbox
so it just was sitting ther empty and broken
i called my email server to find out that they were having a computer melt down in their support office
the support person had the i don't know what, to tell me that they didn't think that was the problem
i high tailed it to kinkos to email my work to meet the deadline at 3am this morning
at 10:45a this morning i open up my mail account to see that the inbox has 583 new messages(junk mail 339) all of the missing emails are back including the one new one my wife sent me this morning as a test
so i conclude that this was not a Mail app problem but mercury in retrograde, the devil in the tube wildfires, trouble in the middle east or perhaps
just me............
what an odyssey
as always the discussion boards were instrumental in helping me through the strange life of the emotional machines
thanks again
rhan

  • TS3899 When at home using our home wireless I can send and receive emails on my iPad no problem.  When using other wireless networks I can send emails to people who share the same Internet provider but not others.  Why?

    Is the wireless provider the issue?  I can receive emails everywhere I go but in some locations can only send to a limited number of email addresses.

    Greetings
    I suspect that the issue is the SMTP server settings. On your home network you are using your providers SMTP server and all is fine (If you check your email account configs you will find that the SMTP server is set to your providers?).
    When you use a different network (provider) mail will not be sent unless you use that networks (providers) SMTP server (this is a security issue to address ways of "spamming").
    So if youre 3G/4G provider is the same as you home provider all will work well via your home WiFi. If you turn off WiFi and just use your 3G/4G connection to send mail (iPhone/iPad etc) all will work well (when you are out and about and using anothers WiFi network).
    If you are connected to, say a MacDonalds WiFi, mail will probably not be sent. (It will be received though).
    Using WEB mail interface (via your WEB browser) removes this problem as well. 
    (A SMTP server is what is used to send email. So to successfully use anothers (not a networks the same as your providers) WiFi network and send email via it, you must know the SMTP servers name and reconfigure your email account/s to use that server to send mail.)

  • Airport and Pop3- can send or receive email

    I currently have a pop 3 email with incoming server port 995 and outgoing server port 587 with ssl checked.  If i test account settings in outlook all complete correctly and the test message is sent but i cannot receive it.  Send and receive work properly when i am directly connected to my cable modem.  I have tried 110 and 25 with no ssl.  Since it works properly when the airport is not used, my ISP says it is an airport issue.  What are the proper settings? 

    should say CANNOT

  • Why does the port settings on my iPad change every time I sync with my computer. After syncing I have to go in and change the port settings so I can send and receive emails on my iPad.

    Every time iSync my iPad 2 with my computer it changes the port settings. Has anyone else had this issue?

    When you sync the iPad, do you have mail settings configured to sync to the iPad? You could have different settings on your computer that might be affecting the email set up on the iPad when you sync.

  • Outlook 2010: why can't I send or receive email?

    Cannot send or receive email through Outlook 2010
    Running MS Office 2010 Professional Plus on a Dell N5010 w. Intel Core 13 proc. and 4 GB RAM.
    Recently discovered my "sent" mail was not being received. I found it all unsent in the "Outbox." A few days later, I stopped receiving email through Outlook. the Outlook ikon: click on it; the ikon shows box w. red X, annotation "working
    offline."
    How do I restore full functionality of Outlook?

    Hi,
    Which type of email account are you using? POP3, IMAP or Exchange?
    Please open your Outlook and click on Send/Receive
    tab, check if the Work Offline button is highlighted. If so click the button to deactivate it. Then, restart Outlook to check the result.
    If Outlook was still stuck in Offline mode, please try to log into your webmail and check if you can send and receive emails using that site. If you can't, please contact your email service provider for help.
    If you can get and send mail on the website, the mail server’s fine. Please try to install all patches for your Outlook. We can also try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and configure your email account in the new mail profile to check if it
    helps. To do this, please refer:

  • I cannot send or receive email by 3G

    I can send and receive email when I am connected to my wifi at home.  However, when I am gone I cannot send or receive email through 3G.  Instead I get a message that there is no Internet service, but I CAN connect to the Internet through Safari. Frustrating!!

  • Exchange 2007 - User's mailbox disappeared in EMC but they can still send and receive email

    We have a user that was complaining about not being in the address book anymore.  After I did a little rooting around in management console I noticed that their mailbox was no longer listed under Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox, but what's weirder
    is I can do a search and find her listed in the results - at which point I can right-click her name and do everything I normally can with no problem. Listing all of the mailboxes with PS shows her still there too.  As far as I know, she is the only user
    having this problem.
    She can send and receive email just fine, but like I said, she is no longer in the global address list so other users have trouble sending her stuff.  At her computer, I tried repairing her email (under account settings) but the process would fail when
    searching for her settings.  I don't know if this is a stupid thing to add, but I did run Clean-MailboxDatabase on our first storage group to see if her mailbox had been deleted or disconnected or whatnot but nothing is currently showing up in Recipient
    Configuration -> Disconnected Mailbox.
    Some info on our setup:
    Exchange 2007 on Windows Server 2003r2
    AD is on Windows Server 2008r2
    Her computer is running Outlook 2010
    I did restart our Exchange server 2 days ago to update VMWare tools, but no Windows updates were installed.  She couldn't tell me exactly when this problem started, but it was more-than-likely in the last couple of days as she was recently married and
    I had to change her name in AD and Exchange - so everything was confirmed 100% functioning 2-3 weeks ago.
    I'm at a lost for what the issue could be, but then again Exchange isn't exactly my forte, so any help would be much appreciated.

    First things first - is her mailbox hidden from address lists?  Run
    Get-Mailbox <alias> | Fl HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled to find out.  It probably isn't, but we need to clear this, just in case.
    Now, assuming it is not hidden, have you searched for both her maiden and married names in your directory?  Often, when the name on a mailbox is changed, the display name is not - and vice versa.  Also, has her email address also changed? 
    If so, has a secondary proxy address been added to reflect her maiden name?  I'd do this, just to be sure things aren't lost that should be delivered to her.
    I can't think of anything else obvious right now.  After you've checked these things, get back to us with their results.

  • I need send and receive emails for edge server 2010

    i have exchnage 2010 in our orgnization now working fine , i can send and receive emails for hub and also we have tmg and fortigate firewall(200B) , already install and configuration edge server(configure edge subscribtion file and edge sync) but still message
    sent form hub and also receive form hub , what to do to receive from edge ? please help me i have 3 month search to fix his problem.

    Hello,
    I recommend you use the Test-EdgeSynchronization cmdlet to check if the subscribed Edge Transport servers have a current and accurate synchronization status. If you have configured EdgeSynchronization successfully, please delete send connector
    on Hub transport server.
    Please uncheck "anonymous users" on receive connector for Hub server.
    Please follow the ExchangeITPro's suggestion to check DNS MX record.

  • Intermittently cannot receive emails but can send.  Error message 'invalid username or password' for my pop3 email account.

    Sometime when I am away from home, I can be happily sending and receiving emails on my ipad2.  Out of the blue I get a message 'Cannot get email.  Username or password invalid'.  On returning home it works again.  Sometimes I delete the account and readd it and this fixes the problem but I'm getting tired of doing that.  Can anyone help please?

    Check here:
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Verizon > SMTP > smtp.verizon.net > Password
    Is your password set there?  Is it set correctly?

  • Can no longer send or receive email from any account after Security Update

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my email in Mail. I let software update install the latest security update (007) a few days ago. I have not been able to send or receive my email since the update. I have several accounts and use Mail as my client for all. This includes my mac.com account, 3 att.net accounts and my website email. All give me the same error which is an SSL thing and has something to do with the certificates. I am able to receive email if I turn SSL off on the ATT accounts but not the mac.com (and if I try to collect my email with SSL off I get an angry message from ATT warning me I am not allowed to do so) and I cannot send any at all from any account.
    The error message reads "unable to connect- there may be a problem with the mail server or network.... The server error encountered was: Mail was unable to verify the identity of this server, which has a certificated issued to "mail.mac.com". The error was: An SSL error occured while trying to read data from the server. Verify this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct". It then states that the certificate could not be verified.
    The certificate date on the mac.com account reads May, 29th , 2010.
    I also have an iMac and a MacBook Pro which are also running Tiger. I have not and will not run the security update on these machines until I find out why it has messed up my email on the G5. I can still send and receive email with the exact same account settings on the MacBook so I know it is not the settings but something to do with the Security Update.
    Has anyone else had trouble with this update? Any advice?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
    I don't know if this is a corrupted preference file or not, but it sure can't hurt to try this.
    If Mail is open, Quit Mail.
    /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    Drag that .plist file to the Desktop. Launch Mail and see if you can send or receive e-mail. If you can, that .plist file is corrupted. Drag it to the trash, empty the trash and reboot. Your Mac will create a new preference file for you the next time you launch Mail.
    Also... run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Disk Utility is in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.
