Cannot retrieve email this morning.

CAN NOT retrieve email this morning. It just keeps trying without success. It's been appox. 3 weeks and I'm still having trouble with deleting emails. Verizon has increased the cost of the internet and has lowered their standards. As a retiree, I'm enbrassed to say I worked for this company for 25 yrs. Get it together Verizon.

If you have another email account, try setting that up on your phone and try receiving an email.  If you can receive email with another account, then the problem's not with your iPhone; if you can't send anything then the problem is with your phone.
If you either don't have another email account or you can't receive any email the you'll have to restore your iPhone with a backup created before you started having trouble.

  • I'm running OS X 10.4.11 on my PowerMac, and cannot retrieve email.  Does this have to do with iCloud?  I also cannot upgrade my operating system as my computer won't accept it.  Any information about this for me? Thank you!

    Hi Steve,
    If this is dot mac or Mobile me you can still use IMAP eMail in the iCloud.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
        •    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 993
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
        •    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 587
        •    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...

  • Unable to send or receive email this morning

    Hello,
    I'm not able to send or recieve emails from Verizon this moring using Windows Live Mail.  I've rebooted my PC but still problem pesists.  Below is the message I receive.  Is there an issue with Verizon mail this morning?
    Thank you for your assistance.
    Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon (xxxxxxxxx) account. The connection to the server has failed.
    Server: 'incoming.verizon.net'
    Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
    Protocol: POP3
    Port: 110
    Secure(SSL): No
    Socket Error: 10060

    Can receive mail, cannot send.
    Client: Thunderbird
    Last successful outgoing message 5PM 5/20. First failed outgoing 9PM 5/20. Symptom was NB connect error 1460.
    Discovered outgoing server was set to outgoing.verizon.net, port 587, password sent insecurely (honestly don't know how it got there, since last outage Feb 2014).
    Changed outbound server to smtp.verizon.net, SSL/TLS, port 465, per Verizon instructions at http://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/fiosinternet/email/setup+and+use/questionsone/86...
    Still no luck. BTW I can ping outgoing.verizon.net, but smtp.verizon.net appears DEAD ("request timed out").

  • Can send Exchange email but cannot retrieve email iOS 7.1.2

    Hi,
    I'm using iPhone 5, running on iOS 7.1.2.
    After I configured Exchange email server settings on the phone, there was an alert that said "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed". The server settings are standard for all our company employees; my userID and password were correct. I could not retrieve any email, contacts or calendar items. However, I was ABLE to SEND outgoing emails including attachments.
    I tried the following:
    1. Reset the phone by selecting 'Erase all data and settings' and re-configured. Same issue.
    2. Restored the phone by connecting the phone to computer using iTunes and re-configured. Same issue.
    3. Got my service provider to reset my SIM subscriber settings at their backend server and I tried 'Reset Network Settings' on my phone and then re-configured. Same issue.
    4. Borrowed my colleague's iPhone 5s and configured my userID and password, ISSUE SOLVED.
    5. Borrowed another colleague's iPhone 5 and configured my userID and password, ISSUE SOLVED.
    6. Tried configuring my userID and password on my iPhone 5, same issue as before: cannot retrieve mail but can send mail.
    From the above steps, I believe we can rule out telco setting issue, exchange email server setting issue and my email profile setting issue. Clearly, my phone is the problem.
    Any suggestions for solutions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I feel so stupid. I realized that my Outlook mail box was full and was not allowing me to send emails until I had deleted messages from my account.
    It's working fine now!

  • Thunderbird sent out 100+ scam emails this morning from one of my Gmail accounts.

    Thunderbird is my email software. It handles my email account from my ISP (used for private business), plus 2 other Gmail accounts one for family and one for the local camera club.
    This morning, some 100+ spam email messages were sent from one of the Gmail accounts, but accessed the address book of all 3 email accounts - most of the names in each address book are only unique to one address book and not duplicated across the other address books.
    I have Forefront, Karpersky and Norton running on the notebook, but nothing showing as a problem. And supposedly, Gmail is meant to scan emails before it delivers them.
    The scam emails are all similar - one word in the subject, but with a space in the word (ie De livered), a one line message saying I sent you a message, please open it and then a link to open.
    Please help.

    One anti virus is all any computer can cope with more simply means more false positive and more chance of none of them working.
    Now you say Thunderbired sent these mails. Did a message come up when you started Thunderbird asking to send unsent mails (as would happen if they were added to it's outbox while it was closed.)
    did you see anything saying Thunderbird was sending mail?
    Or is the mail actually from some web site that your logged into using your, say facebook, credentials that has now spammed your contacts list bacause you allowed to list on that web site.

  • Can't log into email this morning (8 Jun 12)

    I use an IMAP client for reading my mac.com mail. This morning I cannot log in to mac.com using IMAP. I can access my mail using the icloud.com web interface and I see my mail on my iPhone. Is there a problem with the IMAP interface today?
    I changed my configuration to use the "imap.mail.me.com" server instead of "mail.mac.com". This change did not allow me to log in.
    This is not from my MBP.
    Mike

    Roger,
    Thank you. My connection through IMAPs and port 993 worked last night. The connection is not working this morning.

  • TS3899 I was using my email this morning on my ipad as normal just checking mail, all was fine, and late it started ppopping up cannot connect to mail, password or user address is wrong..! i can log in to my emails going through the internet directly to s

    i was using my email as normal this am on my ipad and the imac...  i then started getting messages cannot connect to mail password or username incorrect..  i can get into my account on my desktop going in through safari so what has happened!!  cannot get into my mail on any of our apple appliances..

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    Try deleting and re-adding the email account (Settings App > Mail,Contacts,Calendars)

  • Cannot retrieve email from Mail account on iCloud

    SInce Tuesday, Sept 11th I have been unable to retrieve my messages on my iCloud mail account.  Mail doesn't work on my MacBook Pro or any of my devices (iphone or ipad).  When I try to log on to iCloud I can see my calendar and contacts, however I cannot access my mail.  When I ran Connection Doctor I get the following message:
    "Trying to log in to this iCloud IMAP account failed.  Verify that the username and password are correct.  Also verify that the server supports Apple Token authentication.  If it does not, choose an appropriate authentication setting in the Advanced tab of the Account preferences."
    Mail continues to place this email account in an offline position moments after I click to take it online.
    I've read some reports of others having this problem occur on Tuesday as well.  Is this an iCloud issue?  Please advise.

    You can try deleting the account on your iphone and setting it up again.

  • Cannot retrieve email

    I recently setup Mail to use with a new POP email account. I find that I can send messages using Mail with no problem, but I cannot receive any email messages other than the ones sent by my ISP. There were three of these waiting for me when I opened my Inbox for the first time, and I've received one since. However, I see I have several emails from other people in my Inbox when I open it with web mail; some I've opened, some I haven't. I can't download any of them with Mail.
    I've confirmed my POP & SMTP server info, user name, password. I've created test accounts, which I then deleted after they didn't work; I deleted the "messages already downloaded" folder in Home>Library>Mail. I also deleted the Mail plist in the Preferences folder and set up my account from scratch again. I tried pinging the POP server and didn't get any pings back, but I think I am connecting with the server because once I entered my password incorrectly and the server rejected it until I re-entered it correctly. And, as I said, I have been getting the mail from my ISP.
    I'm using Mail 1.3.11. Usually when I click Get Mail, I see the message, "connecting to (server name)..." This goes on for about a minute and then it just stops. A few times I've seen, "Opening mailbox..." and that goes on for a minute and then stops. I've wondered if this is a timeout issue (though it only gives up after about 30 seconds) but I can't see a timeout setting anywhere in Preferences.
    I'm puzzled. Suggestions, anyone?

    If you have another email account, try setting that up on your phone and try receiving an email.  If you can receive email with another account, then the problem's not with your iPhone; if you can't send anything then the problem is with your phone.

  • I cannot retrieve email from company exchange?

    I am trying to retreieve my email from my company, I have no problem connecting using IOS7 on both my iPad and iPhone but cannot connect from my iMac or Macbook Pro? I have spoken with our IT deprt but still no joy, however, I downloaded TouchDown (Beta) from NitroDesk yesterday and believe it or not I downloaded all my mail on my desktop! Happy days you might think...yes to a degree but as it is still in beta it is very limited, but my question is, how come this email client can connect but Apple Mail or Outlook cannot? Same settings...

    Well TouchDown is ceratinly downloading all my mail okay, but like I said previously it is still in beta and is quite limited. I was hoping someone was aware of maybe another email client that would also work like TouchDown but with better features...
    I will have another chat with our IT department next week but to be honest its very political at our company so I am not going to hold my breath. Thanks for the replies thus far.

  • Email worm? A friend tells me I sent him a multiplying email this morning (via gmail), which he now has received many times. What to do?

    I sent an email to a friend via gmail, which is proliferating. He has now received the same email from me more than 8 times, and counting.  (I'm not using Apple Mail here in Mexico because it is cumbersome to login to RoadRunner or Me.com, whereas Gmail remains ready to go.)  Any instructions on resolving this issue are gratefully received.  ~eric.
