Cant send emails nskntcmgw05p BigPond Outbound Connection refused. OB113.

i can receive emails ,but cant send them ,get error message
An error occurred sending mail: The mail server sent an incorrect greeting: nschwcmgw08p BigPond Outbound Connection refused. OB113.

bigpond suffer rather badly from incompetence and a disconnect between their technical people and the idiots on support.
If it works sometime and not others you can be almost certain that the good people at Bigpond have managed to mess it up again, unfortunately the IQ of their tech support people is so low that a conversation is about impossible, let along an actual useful solution. Last time I wasted time with them they blamed my copy of Microsoft Outlook and regardless of my assurances that it was simply not installed, refused to change their tack, or put me onto someone with a sufficient grasp on reality to at least consider blaming installed software.
My solution, and that of many others, is to simply not use their email accounts for communication with anyone but bogpond. If I had a choice, I would not be their customer at all, but where I live real choice is not something we have.

Cant send emails stuck in my outbox?

Hi, have read just about every query and reply regarding messages stuck in outbox, and have tried just about every suggestion and tip going, but my mail still sits there stubbornly refusing to go.
I tried rebooting; I tried refreshing; I tried going into settings and verifying the email account; I tried re-entering the default account; I tried closing the app and restarting it; I tried double pressing the home button; you name it I tried it, but nothing works. Those emails are just sitting there refusing to budge. I am at my wits end!
Please can somebody give me some more things to try?! Thank you.

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 cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6.

cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6. it was working up until a few days ago and now refuses to load on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4S
in the process deleted all my contact, very annoying.
all help is much appreciated.
interesting that my gmail account does work perfectly.

this may or may not help - but give it a try. On a forum some were reporting that talk21 is now under the yahoo umbrella. below are the steps this use listed. (This was an android forum, but the email settings should be the same. In short it looks like their server names have changed. An existing account may have simply been forwarded - but if you are reinstalling, it may want a clean install to the right servers.) Pay particular attention to the server names and port settings. (this thread was started based on a discussion of Imap vs pop - you are already an Imap person - so ignore that part)
See if this helps.
why settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3. The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3. This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi.
This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP.
Incoming server settings
IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 143
Security type - none
Outgoing Server settings
SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 25
Security type - none Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
and enter your talk21 username and password The End...works a treat for me p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.

Hi, does anyone know why I cant send email over 3g but can over wi-fi. My provider is ntlworld

Hi, does anyone know why I cant send email over 3g but can over wi-fi. My provider is ntlworld. As soon as I get home and connect to wi-fi the mail sends no problem

We use ntlworld as our home broadband provider and main email address. In my experience ntl doesn't usually allow sending of email except on its own network which is why yours works at home. My iPhone is set up to send my ntl email using my second email account's smtp setting (in my case is is a mac.com account and I haven't found any network this doesn't work on to send email).
So my advice is to get yourself another email account with a different provider like yahoo or google, then use the new provider smtp address to send your ntl email on your iPhone.

TS4002 I cant send email via icloud account. I have a BT router for vision. Can anyone help please

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!

Cant send emails, they get stuck in outbox, please help..

I receive mails normally but all sent mails get stuck in the Outbox, i havent made any changes in the configuration recently.

Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for an obsolete Apple productivity program. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more appropriate forum for your product.

I cannot send emails unless I am connected to my wifi.

I have had my Iphone 4s since April 2012 but I have not been able to send emails unless I am connected to my wifi at home. I can recieve emails fine but not send them. I have deleted the accound and added it again and still the same issue. there is a message that comes up when I add the accound it reads 'The outgoing mail server setting provided is intended for O2 customers in the UK. O2 customers should enter their O2 email address in the Primary Outgoing Mail Server unsername feild and their password.' my network is Orange. could this be the issue if so how can I fix it?

It sounds like there is a network/iPhone configuration error. I would head to a carrier store and verify that the sim and account are configured properly

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

Just installed iOS5 on iphone4, now I cant send email?

So I just updated the operating system on my iphone4 to iOS5. Now I cant send email. I can receive email, just cant send. Have tried all the usual remedies such as re-booting, setting up the email account again, changing the outgoing mail server port from 25 to 225 etc. Anyone got any other bright suggestions?

I cant send email after the IOS 7. I receive all emails normaly in the outlook 2011, bus I cant receive. What can I do?

Update - I now have it working.
am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
outgoing server - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked - port now 587
on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".
