Can't send email messages
We have a Mac and suddenly stopped being able to send messages. We have a primary and sub account. Tech support was no help. I need to know what info to put in my Mac mail account info: server description, address, etc. The smtp.verizon.net does not work. We get a message that says our email address is not recognized.

Have no idea what you mean by primary and sub accounts however the setting for my verizon account are
my name
my email address incoming pop.verizon.net
outgoing smtp.verizon.net
my username and password for the mail box
More settings general the name of the account
outgoing server requires authenication checked
advanced incoming port (pop3) 995
check server requires ssl
outgoing server(smtp) port 465
use encrypted connection ssl
Works fine, I'm using outlook on windows
setting are slight different for my non verizon email accounts however they all use the verizon smtp server for outgoing apart from my gmail account that use the standard gmail outgoing server - luckily as the verizon outgoing spam checker is somewhat agressive and deems a lot of stuff spam that is not spam and just trashes them. - those I just send from my gmail account instead

Can't send email message and can't delete
I tried sending a message with a large number of email addresses. Apparently there were some that were problems so a message came up saying it can't be sent. The list was too long for me to click on edit and thus I am unable to edit or erase the message. Any suggestions would be grateful
Is this message showing as being in the Outbox (the Outbox only appears in the Sidebar when a message is sitting in it that failed to send) or elsewhere?
Where did you get the list of addresses that were used in the message?

I just updated my iPad to iOS 5 and now can't send email- I have tried the obvious but no luck. Any suggestions?
Usually 'authentication required' means that you need to submit a username (or e-mail address) and password to the e-mail server, when sending a message. This logic is not different between Outlook and Thunderbird, and even with the latest and previous version of Thunderbird.
Of course you can try the previous version again to see if it solves the problem, although you'll be less secure because you would be missing the latest fixes.
If you'd be willing to get back to Thunderbird, say if your frustration level with your new app would increase too much, please see our article [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-send-messages cannot send messages] for further help.
In all other cases I'd appreciate it if you could mark this as answer so we know you don't need further help. -
Using a wi fi not mine can't send email error message says my email address not recognised
I am using my IPAD in UK. (friend's wi fi) from Australia
Can receive email ok
Have entered his Outgoing address mail.btinternet.com.
Can't send emails. Error message says server does not recognize my address
What do I do??Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, things have gotten progressively worse now in another direction. After I posted this, I shut down my computer to go to work. It had to "rebuild" the filevault sparseimage to recover space.
Now when I restarted it, I am missing things from my dock, ? marks are in their place, all of my preferences have been set to some default AND this is the biggie - I have no mail accounts whatsoever. When I click on Mail, it asks me if I want to establish a new account. It looks like the FileVault action has totally screwed up my system.
I tried rebuilding the permissions as recommended above using safe boot. Didn't help. I am now trying to repair the FileVault sparseimage as recommended elsewhere. I think I now see what the problem might be. I have two different sparseimages for the same account with the only difference is that a 1 is appended to the second one. Unfortunately I can't tell which it is. I have a feeling I should repair the 1st one (without the suffix 1). It must not be able to open that and hence that is why it made a second one.
Any other help anyone?

I can't send emails anymore. Lately out of nowhere, I couldn't dend any emails fom my Ipad. I receive a message saying: the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.
Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works.

On my iPad I can only send email and messages to apple products.how can I send and receive from other devices other than Apple?

There is a huge difference between sending email and sending messages.
Yes, I believe you when you say you can only send messages to other Apple products. The iPad is not a telephone, and therefore, it cannot text message. It can only iMessage, which means it can send and receive messages to/from other Apple products if they are on WiFi or an iMessage capable cellular network.
Email, however, is a whole different category. I don't really think you can only exchange email with other Apple products only. Make sure you have correctly identified the symptoms. -

Go into your SMTP outgoing mail server and enter your username and password.

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

TS3899 I still can not send email from my ipad but iPhone works on those accounts
I still can not send email from my .mac account or a .comcast.net from my ipad. I how 2 people so far that has brought to my attention. We have exchange accounts setup on the ipads for work. I compare the settings from iPad to iPhone from my view it appears identical. I am looking at an iPad 2 and a Mini.
I turned on and off the ipads and nothing really changed. The emails come into those accounts.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
VickiHTCWhen you say you can't send...as in they never get the email? Does the email appear to send? Error message? When?
It may be more than one iPad that has a problem....
