Can't send mail: sender address rejected by server

help

Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below for the .Mac SMTP server.
What is entered in the Server Port field?
If 25, enter 587 instead and when finished select OK to save the changed setting.
If you are already using 587 for the Server Port, are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet with the Mail.app and if so, are you able to send messages with your ISP's email account?
If yes to both, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send messages with your .Mac account.

  • Sender address rejected by server smtp.freeserve

    I have minimal [Read NO] understanding of how this all works so please bear that in mind.
    Recently I have been trying to send emails from the Mail App on the iMac version 10.6.8. (I'm guessing that's snow leopard).
    I keep getting the message: sender address rejected by server smtp.freeserve.co.uk.
    I do not understand why this is happening.
    My accounts and mail are all connected and logged in to the internet/server, there are no mistakes in my
    email address or anything so I just don't understand what could possibly be going on.
    Please help, I need possible problems (and explanations) and I definitely some possible solutions.
    Thank you so much in advance.

    You shouldn't post an e-mail address in a public forum.

  • Just downloaded iOS 7.0 on iPhone and now cannot send email -sender address rejected by server???

    JusJust downloaded iOS 7.0 on iPhone and now cannot send email -sender address rejected by server???

    What happens when you go to the web based mail for your email account?
    Are you able to login and send / receive messages from the web?
    If so, you might need to check outgoing email settings on your iPhone
    Settings > Mail, Contacts Calendars
    Tap on the account you are having an issue with
    Tap on the email address beside the word Account
    Tap on info beside SMTP  (SMTP = outgoing mail server)
    Tap on the SMTP server name again. 
    Make sure server is turned on
    Check settings & port info, password, etc.
    Good luck!

  • Sender address rejected by server

    Setting up my iMac mail, and using the same settings for my mail account as I have been using successfully on my MacBook, but can't get any mail to send. I receive the message that the sender address has been rejected by the server. I have tried deleting and re-entering the account information and outgoing mail server, double checking it against what is working on my MacBook, but no luck!    Thanks for any ideas on how to get the mail moving!!

    The sender address (Apple ID) was rejected by the server.

  • HT1430 Ref; email problem; my iPad says sender address rejected by server, could I have a corrupt email or syntec error, how do I clear it

    I am using a SIM card, it's worked really for for 6 weeks, but started to say "Sender address was rejected by the server. I have swopped
    SIM cards from my iPhone 4S which works fine with sending from the same email address. I sort of feels like a corrupt of syntax error, I
    have rebooted a few times but it's not cleared. I have even deleted and reinstalled my email address etc, but still can't send

    Sometimes it is as simple as checking the outgoing server setting and making sure that your username and password are correct.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • Sender address rejected by server - Help!!

    I have been unable to send mail all morning - I can receive mail, but when I try to reply or send a new message altogether, I get the error message "Sender address [email protected] rejected by server." I searched these forums and tried sending messages through my mail on mac.com, but that didn't work either.
    I don't know if this is a widespread apple problem as the boards indicate has happened before, or the result of something i've done. last night, preparing to go on vacation, i attempted to set an "out of office" reply via preferences>rules. I did it wrong and ended up sending my auto reply to every existing message in my inbox (several hundred - some people got dozens of the auto response - very embarrasing as this is my business e-mail!). I deleted the "rule" to stop the process, but i don't know if that has something to do with my new problem. I'm working remotely and need my e-mail - please help!!!!!

    I tend to agree with Austin's explanation. One work-around might be to change your SMTP port from 25 to 587.
    Another explanation is that by sending out all those mistaken replies yesterday that your are temporarily blocked as a spammer. Most ISPs (including Apple) put limits on the number of outgoing mail messages in a 24 hour period.

  • Error message 'sender address rejected by server' w/MacMail

    I receive email ok but all of a sudden I cannot send email or reply to email using Mac Mail. The error message says:
    Message could not be delivered and will remain in outbox,
    The sender address xxx@xxx was rejected by the server.
    What's up Apple server?
    Thanks

    The security update didn't break any of my email accounts and I access several with Mail that are not provided by my ISP.
    Is this email account you were having problems sending messages with provided by your ISP - AT&T or other?
    I have a .Mac account and I also access my employer provided POP account with Mail and although I have no problems sending messages with either account and associated SMTP server since both SMTP servers are authenticated and my ISP does not block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by my ISP on Port 25 as long as the SMTP server is authenticated, I use my ISP's SMTP server to send messages with both accounts when connected to my ISP at home.

  • "Sender address rejected by server" but only when out and about!

    Hi!
    My iPhone 3GS has been working fine with sending and receiving emails both via wifi and when I'm out and about.
    Now it won't allow me to send emails while I'm out. Can receive them okay and can access the internet, but when I try to send them I get told that the sender address was rejected by the server.
    Yet it still works perfectly fine sending and receiving via wifi when I'm home.
    I'm using an smtp address attached to my work, port 587. I know nothing technical but can try to give other details if asked.
    Spent a while in the Orange shop and didn't get anywhere, any help I would gladly accept!

    Yes! It worked! Haven't left the house yet today but managed to send emails with the wifi turned off, which is better than I have been doing.
    I had tried putting my username and password in but not the whole email address, had also tried putting my server log in details into those boxes.
    Thank you, it really was driving me mad and you saved me having to tediously go through it all on the phone with someone.

  • HT1277 Sender address rejected by server

    I keep getting an error message when trying to send mail.  It states: sender address was rejected by server.  I have called my email provider and everything is setup properly according to their requirements.  Why is this happening?  I also have a .me account setup in macmail and am able to send from there no problem. 

    Is it gMail perchance?
    Gmail send but not receive...
    Here are two steps that have come in handy in related situations
    1) login to gmail on your computer or device via a web browser
    2) once logged in successfully, go to this URL to unlock:

  • Sending email: sender address rejected by server?

    Hi People
    On an iphone 5s I have email accounts already set up and working fine but am trying to set a new one. It will receive but not send - I am getting message "sender address is rejected by the server". Have checked settings numerous times and have tried changing outgoing server port settings 465 with SSL and 25, 80 and 3535 without as recommended. Spoke to mobile and email provider - both said to try those things again (plus delete account and reinstall which I have done) Getting fed up with it now. Any suggestions much appreciated while I still have hair!
    Thanks v much

    No you're right..will be a problem with me not the phone! Am using the pop settings not IMAP. Outgoing I am using is smtpout.europe.secureserver.net but I have also tried it without the "europe."
    Thank you for your help so far...I have to go out now (boozing time in the UK) but will catch up tomorrow. Cheers for now.

  • Recieve emails but can not send. email rejected by server

    I am able to recieve emails on iphone 4s but cannot send.  POP outgoing server settings all same as on PC. Error message is "the recipient,XXXX was rejected by the server".  email account is hosted by GoDaddy.com

    Hi, Lawernce.
         Your issue with the iPhone's Mail Application might be due to two factors - 1. The otugoing server information might be incorrect. 2. The outgoing server credidentials might be incorrect. To change these, tap settings from the home screen, tap the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars button, tap the account you want to change, and contact Go Daddy for the correct server credidentials.

  • Cannot Send Mail  Sender Address Rejected by server (Mac Mail)

    I am getting this message whenever I try to send mail using MAC mail though my cable provider (COX). It has just started. I can send mail fine from a PC on my network and via at ATT wireless card. But not via cable. I have tried all the obvious things and many things discussed in the forum including:
    - Run disk warrior in case there was a file problem
    - Delete user info from cox account
    - Reset modem and router
    - Change outgoing port
    - switched from wifi to Ethernet connection
    In talking to COX, they say they seem to have some undocumented incompatibilities with Mac mail that appear to be intermittent. He said this is common problem.
    I have had this problem one other time and resetting the modem seemed to fix the problem.
    Anybody find a permanent solution to this problem.

    Well I think I solved it. It appears that the outgoing server information dissapeared. The outgoing mail menue is hard to find go to preferences/accounts.
    At the bottom of the page is a pull down menu of different outgoing servers. One of the options is edit. Select this. While my COx account was there the information was no longer there. Filled it in again and everything worked fine.
    I must say it took me a while to find where I could adjust the outgiong mail server. Very poor design on Apple's part!

  • Why is my "sender address rejected by mail server" where do i look to fixzzz/

    why is my "sender address rejected by mail sercer"  where do i go to fix?

    Without knowing the sender address, it's impossible to say why it was rejected. Was the address in the proper format; did you type it in yourself, or did you use one stored in Address Book?
    Be more specific and cite the exact text of the error message (but don't include the actual email address) in your reply.
