Cannot send emails when abroad

Using Vodafone I cannot seem to reply to any emails when I am abroad - Blackberry seems to simply not send them and leaves the emails I am trying to send just pending......that circular sign next to the email as if to say "I am trying but not able to send!" Anyone know why this might be happening? Hitting resend makes no difference either.
I can send and receive emails quite well within the country I live.
BTW I live in The Netherlands and this happens the moment I go somewhere else i.e. UK, France, etc....
Thanks in advance.

You have to speak with your home carrier and arrange a roaming plan in other countries and on other carriers. Typically, that needs to be arranged before you leave.

Cannot send email when clicking lonk on web page

I cannot send email when clicking link on web page.
When I would click the link to send via email I was being directed to hotmail to open new account.
Today the tech tried to assist me and completely messed up my email capabilities by setting up
windows live account.
I am thoroughly disgusted with FIOS internet services..Every time I've called them in the past month problem has been with someone else whose portal services they are using.
I cannot send emails because all my contact information cannot be moved.
I'm paying for FIOS internet service that is almost non existent.
THe VZ in home agent doesn't work nor does the FIOS information site.
My next move is to get rid of FIOS.
They create more problems then they solve with me.

If I understand your problem correctly, you are having trouble when clicking on a MailTo link on any webpage? What loads when you click this type of link is a setting in your browser. If you tell us what browser you are using, we can try to direct you to the setting.

My Applemail cannot send emails when tethering from Iphone

Hi,
When I tether internet from my Iphone to my laptop, I cannot send emails in applemail.
All other internet connections work fine, It looks to be the iphone perosnal hotspot thats not working.
Has anyone else faced this issue? What is a solution?
Thanks.

Most likely because your carrier is doing this to stop spammers.

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
If you're on holiday, then typically the internet connection will be a different ISP, and hence you may not be able to use mail.btinternet.com since BTinternet may block access if not using a BT connection.
Changing the smtp settings to that of the connected ISP would also mean setting other items as the BTinternet email address wont be recognised.
Unless port 587 works with perhaps setting SSL/TLS in the settings, then the best option is webmail.

Cannot send emails when outlook through another IS...

When I am abroad I try to use Outlook to access my emails via whatever ISP is provided by my hotel. I can receive mails fine but I cannot send. I have tried changing default settings for outgoing mail with no success.

You may have to use webmail instead, as the BT mail server will probably reject SMPT requests from outside of the BT network, to prevent spam.
This may help

Cannot send email only when I am using my school wifi network

Hi,
I cannot send emails when I am in my school's wifi network. It is fine at home. But I am the only one at school experiencing this problem. I tried turning off and then on the iphone, deleting all my mail accounts and then reinstalling them, updating iphone to the newest firmware, restoring the iphone to factory settings, etc. but nothing worked so far.
I have a yahoo mail and an exchange server email and they both send and receive normally in my home wifi network.
The problem I get at school is that when I click send for an email, it keeps writing "sending" without actually sending it and then the only way to stop this loop (which could last hours) is to restart the phone and then deleting the email from the outbox. Before restarting the phone I cannot delete the email from the outbox.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks..

Cannot send email from pop account when in 3G, will send in WIFI

I cannot send email from pop account when in 3G, will send in WIFI.
I thought it was the SMTP server first.. but when i config my WIFI, suddenly the emails that i tried to send, left my outbox and sent.
Any idea's

The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

In Thunderbird, I cannot send email. I am asked to enter an email address in Mail and Newsgroup Account settings but when I click on this option, nothing opens.

I can connect to Thunderbird and receive email. However, I cannot send emails. When I press send (either from replying to an email or entering an email address manually) I get the following error message:
Sending of message failed.
No sender specified. Please fill in your email address in the Mail & Newsgroup Account settings.
When I click on the menu option within the email message Tools/Mail & Newsgroup, the message minimises and the programme returns me to my inbox. There is no Mail & Newsgroup setting on the mail programme.

Sorry, I don't use Thunderbird and this is the Firefox support forum.

Cannot send email via ActiveSync when user connect from Internet (Exchange 2010 SP3 RU5)

Hi All.
This is the first time I encounter this kind of issue, whenever user connect from the internet they cannot send email from their Phone or Windows Mail App, but they can retrieve email
But when they connect from Internal Network they can send email. I already test ActiveSync from internet using www.testexchangeconnectivity.com and it pass all tests.
I also check the Firewall and all the necessary ports already opened (we even open all ports) , the default TTL on the firewall 3600 second.
From what I read ActiveSync use some kind of HTTP POST or in MS terminology "PING" command, but still have no idea what kind of configuration that should be made to the Firewall so it can pass this "PING" command. Because from what I
see in Android Logcat the problem always related to this PING command

Hi ronaldosy,
How about the work flow of Outlook or OWA on PC internally/externally?
If only phone has this issue, I suggest ask ActiveSync Forum for help so that you can get more professional suggestions. For your convenience:

Hi Stephen,
What version of MS Office are you using?
Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other". The "Add Webmail Account" dialog presents. You'll fill out the dialog's fields with Outlook.com settings. (don't forget the "Advance Settings" button)
From a look-see on the web it appears that the following are the needed settings. BUT, you'll be wanting to validate.
The Outlook.com SMTP server settings for sending outgoing messages from an email program on desktop, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com SMTP server address: smtp.live.com
• Outlook.com SMTP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com SMTP password': Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com SMTP port: 587
• Outlook.com SMTP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
For incoming messages from an Outlook.com account to an email program using POP, use the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 server settings.
The Outlook.com POP server settings for downloading new incoming messages to email program, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com POP server address: pop3.live.com
• Outlook.com POP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com POP password: Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com POP port: 995
• Outlook.com POP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes

TS3276 Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
Select Password authentication and add your details.
You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.

When out of town i can recieve email but cannot send email?

When away from home i cannot send emails. I recieve them just fine?

Here is a good place to start...
http://www.shaw.ca/Support/Internet/Email/Email-Setup/Use-Email-Client/
You will want to focus on your outgoing server / domain settings, as long as your incoming mail is still functioning properly.
