Can't Receive Email Via IMAP Account

Hi!  I have set up an IMAP account using host name of p99-imap.mail.me.com (for incoming mail server).  I can send emails just fine from this IMAP account. However, I can't receive any. I am using my iCloud email user name and password when I set up the incoming mail server information right underneath the host name (which is p99-imap.mail.me.com).  Does anyone know what I may be doing incorrectly?  I appreciate any suggestions!

Yes. The settings are correct. I've deleted and set up the same account several times now on both my devices, just in case that might fix it. No luck. I'm currently using Inky Mail, which seems to have no problems accessing my email. Would be nice to be able to once again use the stock Apple mail app, though.

  • Can't receive email form outside accounts

    Hi everyone,
    I am trying to set up a mail server on [nuke dot mgh dot harvard dot edu].
    I can send emails anywhere, I can receive email from the accounts created on this server, but I can't receive anything from any outside account. I know there are other threads with a similar problem, but fixes described there didn't help so far. Any help will be appreciated.
    the postifx config is:

    Do the following tests:
    1. From the server itself, open a Terminal window and issue:
    telnet localhost 25
    If you see your mail server responding, your are fine locally. (enter quit to exit).
    2. From a client machine in the same subnet as the server issue:
    telnet serverip 25
    If the mail server responds you know it's not the firewall on the server. If it doesn't then it's probably the OS X firewall.
    3. If needed, keep going "further" away and repeat above procedure until you know where port 25 is shut.
    Nuke is a subdomain, but what is an MX record? (if "what" is too long to explain, is there a simple instruction somewhere on how to create it?)
    An MX record is a DNS entry that tells the outside world, which server is responsible for handling mail for the domain/subdomain in question.
    If leaving the name untouched in the config was the only ingenious thing I've done today, I could call it a great day
    No to worry. Obfuscating domain names is pretty pointless anyway as they are public.

  • Can't receive email .MAC, IMAP or POP

    My receive email stopped working, all of a sudden. I have checked all the setup parameters, and they are right. I even tried to create duplicate accounts, one for .MAC, one for IMAP, and one for POP. They all fail to receive email from my @mac.com email account. Web mail works fine, and I can send email to myself from my mac.com email, or my sbcglobal.net email, but it only shows up in web mail not in the mail client.
    Befuddled

    "What does "stopped working" mean? "
    Thank you for the reply, stopped working means tht I can't receive email. Turns out, that this morning, after 24 hours, it started working agiain. I tried everything yesterday to receive email, and nothing would work, including deleting the account on the client and reentering it. Today, I tried entering it again, and wonderful of wonderfuls, it works fine. My only guess, is tht whatever server my mail is on, wouldn't connect.
    Oh, well, thanks,
    Tom

  • Can't receive emails via pop3

    Hey everyone...
    All of a sudden a few days ago I stopped being able to receive my emails... they are pop3 account - on my one account i get the message
    - "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “BT” or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The server “mail.btinternet.com” cannot be contacted on port 110."
    any ideas why this happened randomly and what i can to to correct it?
    :-s

    don't know why it happened but i suggest you do the following:
    1) check with BT to see if by chance you don't have the right settings
    2) check with BT if they don't have issues on their end
    3) in mail>preferences>account... in account information and in advanced check if you have the right user id, password, incoming server and port in the first pane and third pane.
    4) check in keychain access in applications/utilities, if you have more than one password for that account by any chance, or of the one password is correct.
    hope this helps

  • Can not receive emails from any accounts rather than Rogers(my ISP)

    Hi all,
    I have OCS10g installed on RHEL_AS4. Currently I got problem to receive and send emails both inbound and outbound.

  • Can't send emails via Apple account (smpt errors)

    I've been having this problem, on again and off again, for over two months. I even did live chats with Road Runner about the issue. It seems to be temporarily resolved. I've been getting these error messages:  Can't send message with using the server stmp-server.neo.rr.com. 
    The server response was: 4.1.8 - Domain of recipient does not resolve [R0309001]
    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.
    or
    The server response was: 5.5.2 RCPT TO syntax error
    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.
    My SSL is unchecked, there's no password for authentication, my port numbers and server emails are fine. Well, except the smtp. one. It keeps saying smpt, when I fixed it so many times. Is there any way to fix this problem on my six year old Imac. It's ok to send an email out to one person, but not more than one. I have the same troubles at the RR website.

    Many ISP mail servers are restricted and will not permit mail to be sent that originates from outside their network (which the cellular data network is).
    Check with the mail provider to see if you need to use a different SMTP server when using a mobile device.

    Do you have one, two or more entries in the left colum of Mail.app for your mail server(s)?  That is, do you have your Mail.app set up with either a btinternet entry, with a btyahoo entry, or both?  Or more?
    I'm guessing that you might have one account (btyahoo?) listed for incoming (IMAP server) mail, and with the outbound (SMTP server) mail is configured and named btinternet.
    Based on what little I see posted, it looks like BT uses both btinternet and btyahoo, but I'm not exactly clear on how they have their stuff set up, and their web set gets helpful and tries to help configure my mail — I don't immediately see a single web page with the mail server set-up details.  The BT email client set-up starts here.

  • Can not receive emails from third party email accounts

    Recently I started working for a small business which has small business server 2011 and exchange 2010 installed. Before I started there were eight user accounts and they all have unlimited email access. I created a few users through sbs AD and also from
    exchange console a week ago. Unfortunately none of them can not receive emails from third party accounts. they all can receive internal emails and also can send mails to any email accounts internally and externally. 
    This is a night mare for me as new users are having trouble with communicating via mails. I have tried all the methods and now thought of posting this issue on tech net. Please help me on this!!
    Thanks a lot!! 
    Sammy 

    Checklist for testing inbound email problems, I am assuming outbound emails works ok.
    1. Check Port 25 forwarding on all modems routers/firewalls
    2. MX Record is created and pointing to the correct Public IP Address, use MXToolbox.com to verify MX Record and test SMTP flow. Also Verify your public IP has not changed, use whatsmyip.org to check you public IP
    3. If using POP Connector Service, make sure POP accounts are created properly
    4. If using a 3rd party spam host, make sure they forward email to correct public IP address, use step 2 to verify your public IP.

  • I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

    I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

    Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
    Good Luck to you.

  • Eversince installed Mountain Lion, i can't receive emails from my Microsoft Exchange account!! Why is this so?

    Eversince installed Mountain Lion, i can't receive emails from my Microsoft Exchange account!!
    Why is this so? I don't have this problem prior to installing the Mountain Lion OS X

    Have you tried 10.8.1?  It includes fixes in this area.  Usually the problem is if Active Directory is returning incorrect Exchange information in response to an Autodiscover request.  In 10.8.1 you can manually edit this information.

    I cant send email via icloud account.  I have a BT router for vision

    Thanks for the suggestion - it turned out that it was actually my workplace's network that automatically blocks external SMTP servers (for some security reason), so the email(s) sent perfectly once I went home and connected to May home network. Annoying!

  • Help please: can't receive mail on POP account.

    Can someone help me? I can't receive emails on my POP account. I am using 10.6.8 os and apple mail 4.6. I'm able to send messages using port 587. Trying to get ready for business launch on Wednesday. Thanks for your help!

    Just curious - were you ever able to receive mail or did you recently set this account up and encounter the problem?
    As a paying Dreamhost customer, you should have access to their 24/7 tech support. The basic Apple mac.app account set-up is very straight-forward (at least with web mail).
    If this is a new account with no received messages, simply deleting it and going through the set-up again is no big deal. Remember, use IMAP instead of POP3 to receive messages. POP3 pulls the only copy of the message off the server and delivers it to your mail client/computer. Since there is no back-up copy of the data on the server, this is bad news if anything happens to it locally.
    Here's a basic tutorial on adding/deleting accounts (just in case):
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84cYMuVsLp0
    Check out this thread as well - appears that even after deleting an account the name of the old account might remain:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4094214?start=0&tstart=0
    To summarize, I would try the following:
    1.) Contact Dreamhost and explain your issue - it could be a problem on their end. Don't be shy about using their tech support; you pay for it!
    2.) If Dreamhost finds nothing amiss on their end, you could delete and re-enable your account via mail.app (keeping in mind the caveats about backing-up all received POP3 messages and the potential sender account bug from the thread). Use IMAP if possible.
    3.) If that does not work for you, try another Mail client. I recommend Thunderbird, but there are other free options:
    http://mac.appstorm.net/roundups/communication-roundup/8-awesome-alternatives-to -mail-app-on-your-mac/
    I doubt that this is causing the problem, but you could also disable your firewall (System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall) and see if that changes anything.
    Hope one of these works for you.
