Cannot get exchange mail account to work

I am a very persistent person. I don't give up easily. But I just can't get my exchange account to work on iphone. After trying way too many times, I've tried to get it set it up on the Apple Mail program so that I can then sync the mail account to the iphone through itunes. I've only been able to get the incoming mail working on Mail. I've tried so many different permutations and combinations, but I cannot get the outgoing mail to work.
I know that imap is set up. And I can access my mail account through Entourage... perfectly.
Why can't I get it to work on Mail???? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated? Any settings to check on the exchange server so that I can get it to set up properly. Please. I am about at my wit's end. And I won't give up!!!!
Thank you!

JeremyLogan,
Here are some settings that you need to make sure are enabled on your Exchange server:

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. I know the report is long. Please post all of it anyway.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Changed mail account on gmail and can't get my mail account activated anymore on my bb

Hi,
Close to getting grey hairs now ...
I have a BB Curve 8520 ... and I'm using my gmail account as mail on my bb - today i changed my gmail password though and can't get any more messages into my gmail account any longer now (WTF did i change my password for ???). I tried to add my gmail account as my bb says that an email address does not currently exists for my bb device ... so when i try to add my gmail account and select 'gmail' in my email setup, add my email address and password it says ! Update failed ...
Anyone any solutions to this problem pls ...
Facebook, internet, BBM .. still working ..
thx a lot in advance !

If you select a mailbox, you should get an Edit button (easier to see in landscape mode). Clicking the button will provide you with check circles for the messages. You also get Delete and Move buttons at the bottom. Check the messages you want to move and then navigate to the mailbox you want to drop them into. I think as long as you can navigate to a mailbox you can move the messages to it.
In the Mac Mail application and probably Outlook on the Windows side, you also setup rules to move messages to specific mailboxes. If the mailboxes are stored on the server, then you can have the sorting done on the server and they should appear that way on the iPad. If your later messages do not show up, you may need to have the iPad app pulled down more messages until they are all showing.

Can't Get E-mail Account Set Up

I'm trying to set up an e-mail account on a new computer. I have all the correct information, but every time I go to download mail, the system repeatedly asks for my user name and password. I know I enter the correct information, but for some reason it doesn't take. I'm using Vista Home Premium as an OS. I also have 2 underscores in the user name.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Thank you.

I am assuming you are referring to your @verizon.net address, since you didn't specify. There is a help page for setting up your client located here that includes a video link if you would find that more helpful.
For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
The settings for using Verizon's servers would be:
Incoming Server: incoming.verizon.net
Server Requires Authentication: Yes
Username: fakeacct
Password: fakepassword
Requires a secure connection (SSL): No
Port: 110
Outgoing Server: outgoing.verizon.net
Server Requires Authentication: Yes (You can set it to use the same settings as incoming, or manually enter the username and password.)
Requires a secure connection (SSL): No
Port: 25 (although 587 also works.)
These settings should work unless you have a Verizon/Yahoo account, in which case the server names are: incoming.yahoo.verizon.net -and- outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net

Getting my mail account to work

Hi,
I am trying to get my mail to work on my phone! I have had my iphone since October and am finally frustrated enough that i am asking for help since i can not figure it out myself! It says that the connection to the server has failed. Any ideas as to what i should do?

What doesn't work? If you're trying to use the cwmx.com for the smtp server it will only work while on the at&t edge network, no ssl. If you try to use cwmx.com smtp server while on wifi it will not work. Your isp's smtp server should work on wifi and the edge smtp server will work on edge only. If you have an isp that only allows their smtp server on their network then you end up in ther situation I am in. I can only send email on the iphone when on edge since I use their smtp server, if I'm on wifi I turn wifi off for a moment, then send. Try it again, it should work.

Can't get AIM/AOL account to work in Mavericks' Messages

Messages works fine with my iCloud/Mac/Me address. But when I try to add the AOL one (which is still the only protocol in Messages/iChat that works with screen sharing), it gives "unknown error."
I've verified the name/password by logging directly into aim.com, and tried multiple times throughout the last day.
Anyone else able to get their AIM account working ?

I had the same problem and figured out how to get it to work.
From the Add Account dialog, DON'T click on the AOL option. Instead select "Other messages account..." and click Continue. In the next dialog box select AIM from the Account type drop down and enter your login and password. This worked for me.

I can,t get one email account to work in tiger after panther

I have two email servers, AOL and Verizon. I wrote down the setting from panther and put them into Tiger. Aol is working fine but verizon does not. If I restart in Panther, verizon works. In tiger I get a message about port 25 timming out but I use the same port in Panther without issues. I went back and took snapshots of the Panther setting and put them in Tiger but still I can,t get verizon to work. I checked the firewall and it is the same setting as panther. I am at a complete loss, Googling would be in the blind so I don,t know.

David,
Is Verizon also your ISP? One possibility is MTU (maximum transmission unit), which may be getting set differently in the two versions of OSX. Test with lower values for MTU, and compare the System Preferences/Network settings in each version of OSX. See:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107962
and
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303192
One other thing to ask -- what character set and/or keyboard settings are you using? I ask because your post seems to use a comma, where an apostrophe would be expected?

Can't get one email account to work again after deleting it

I have been using a 9800 for ages with two separate email accounts; one is a work account and the other a personal Gmail account. I also back up my phone regularly to a computer
I deleted the work accout for a holiday and, prior to re-installing it, found that I could temporaily disable the receipt of emails for a particular account by applying a filter. I recreated the work acount on my phone and, apart from being surprised that some of my old emails were still present, also tried to create a filter.
I'm now in a position where no work emails are getting through to my phone despite deleting the filter I created and having gone through all of the settings on the phone. All the settings for the work account appear to be the same, where applicable, as for the Gmail account but only the latter is working. I've also restored the email settings only from a backup when everything was working OK.
Any ideas please?

Can't get new mail sound to work

i recently updated to Lion and set up my gmail account on the 'Mail' application on the imac. My sound is on, and i enabled the new mail sound, however when i get a new email, it doesn't make the sound. What should i do?

I had the same problem but that was because I had the wrong sound-output selected. Make sure it's set to "Selected sound output device".
System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects
Hope this works for you as well.

I cannot get my mail accounts to work in Leopard,except my 60 day trial .ma

I have checked with my ISP and all my settings are correct for them, but nothing will send or receive in Leopard, though they work just fine on my G4 running Tiger. I am about to delete them all and start over. Sometimes even the .mac doesnt work...any ideas?

Ok, I briefly saw a post following mine saying that my assertion was hilarious, and if I felt that OSX 10.5 were such a lemon I should call the powers that be and lambaste them. For those who say you cannot send from a different server while showing the initial email address, e.g. [email protected] sending...then failing, then being asked if I would like to send from smtp.mac.com: [email protected], I would ask you to look at the general tab on email preferences which offers a pull down with the heading "If outgoing server is unavailable: 2 choices; Show a List of Alternate Servers or Automatically try sending later. I have done this, and the maio has ahown up on my other computer under the original address I sent from. I am sorry if I am a buffoon for noting this, but it has happened in testing 5 times today.
I dont know what happened to the post I referred to at the beginning, it was there, then when I hit reply it disappeared, perhaps it will reappear...as the Police would put it, its a Ghost in the Machine.
No offense to anyone, but I have been an Apple user since our high school got 2 Apple II's in 1981-82, so Im not a Mac vs PC guy bandwagon jumper. Prior to my disability I had been a Graphic Designer for over 20 years, and I was certified prior to OSX. I have a total of 5 macs from and 840 AV, an 8500, an Aqua (I guess) G3, an old Graphite G4 500mhz as armed to the teeth as can be, and of course my 1.66 duo Mini, heck I have an Ipod Nano....I have my Apple chops, I was just hoping there had been a similar experience to bounce the question off of (not wishing mail probs for anyone) before calling My Apple.
Thanks for the responses, both helpful and funny
