  • How to use Apple Mail to send outgoing emails only?

    Hello,
    I haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for elsewhere on the interwebs.
    I want to be able to set up the Apple Mail app on my Mac to send outgoing emails only from my Gmail account. I use the Gmail website and my iPhone for sending/receiving emails and I don't want or have a need for all of my Gmail emails to be downloaded into the Apple Mail app or for new emails to appear in the Mail app as they come in.
    I just want to be able to send outgoing emails from the app so that I can send photos directly from iPhoto using the Email button. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Great news, thanks!

  • I cant send outgoing emails out of no where.

    A week ago my email just stopped sending and receiving emails out of no where. Then 3 days ago the incoming mail started working again magically but the outgoing email isnt working still and is really hurting my business! Please help.

    (Please update Firefox to 17.0.1 [[Update Firefox to the latest version]])
    This doesn't sound like a Firefox problem, Firefox is just a web browser and doesn't have anything to do with your email. I'd try to contact your Email providers (gmail, yahoo, whomever you have) and get help there.

  • Cant send outgoing messages from Outlook

    Yesterday I had a problem with my outlook e0mail account. I deleted the account, changed the password and now although I can receive mail I cannot send mail in the account. I keep getting the error message :
    Task '********@btinternet.com - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC78) : 'Cannot send the message. Verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The server responded: 530 authentication required - Your email could not be sent. To fix this you must make a simple change to your email client (known as SMTP authentication). For advice visit http://www.bt.com/smtp'
    On typing in the web page it no longer exists.
    Can anyone else help here.
    regards
    Pete

    You need to make sure the 'My server requires authentication' box is ticked. See screenshot

  • My isp is comcast i cant send outgoing mail

    my isp is comcast and i cant send outgoing mail

    The outgoing server in my Comcast account is - smtp.comcast.net - I would assume that yours is the same.
    razmee209 has a great suggestion - go to the settings for the Comcast account and tap on the outgoing smtp server, then tap on the smtp server under the Primary Outgoing Server - make sure that your password is correct in the next window.
    I discovered that I had to change the password in there a while ago when I changed my email password and I couldn't send email from my iPod Touch.

  • HT5312 Dear sir.  I have problem in reseting my qusetion and answer in my account i have forgot  i cant send reset email i have already intered  rescue email  i cant find this option.

    reseting my qusetion and answer in my account i have forgot  i cant send reset email i have already intered  rescue email  i cant find this option.
    <Email Edited by Host>

    The option to send reset info only appears if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account - if you've just added an address then it will be an alternate email address, a rescue email address can only be added by answering 2 of your questions. You will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use. Or you could use 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • Mac Mail No Longer Sends Outgoing Email

    Has Verizon changed its email settings?  My Mac Mail program suddenly quit sending out my university email from home and says the outgoing verizon server rejected the password.  However, nothing has been changed in my email program and it won't accept any password to send the outgoing email.
    The online instructions provided by Verizon for Entourage indicate changing the outgoing port setting to 587.   But that does not work.
    Why can't the Mac Mail program send out email through Verizon any more?

    Thanks for helping.  While the university has web mail for off campus access, our IT said that off campus users (i.e., when at home) using a dedicated email client (e.g., Mac Mail) should send outgoing email through their internet service provider.  I agree, it doesn't seem right to me, but that's what they have us do.
    Settings that worked previously: The incoming server is a pop account, mail.cahnrs.wsu.edu with a user name and password.  The outgoing server is outgoing.verizon.net using port 587 with user name and password.
    The university email is generally [email protected]  But it could also be [email protected]
    Until about two days ago, these settings were working fine, so it seems like something changed somewhere.
    Thanks very much for any help you can offer.
    So when you're off-campus, are you still in Washington? If so, you're in an area that's been sold to Frontier, and it's entirely possible that your email access has been converted. You can contact Tech Support if you need help setting things up and/or verifying the status of your account. I was able to find this via Google, hopefully it will help you:
    http://www.frontierhelp.com/faq.cfm?qstid=1
    Basically it says your SMTP server should be smtp.frontier.com, but there's also a link-off that appears to provide walk-throughs for configuring your client.
    Hope this helps!

    Didn't want to make you feel like an Idiot. Just pointing otu that most all externals come, these days, formatted NTFS as the world runs on Windows computers and at least the last 2 Win OS version will only install and likes to use NTFS formatted drives. So most drive manufacturers Pre-Format their drive in that format.
    What do you mean "I'm Cloning Time Now"? I don't get the TIME reference?
    You Clone the install of OS X from a working Mac to the External. The Cloning willl make that external Bootable (It will boot on like Mac computers).
    Then when that is done disconnect that external and connect it to your Mac. Start your Mac and it should boot off that external. If it doesn't then Restart and hold down the Option key and select the external as the boot drive.
    Once the your Mac starts from the external the cloning program should already by running as it was running whenn the clone was made. Select the external as the source and your internal as the destination. you may want to shut the cloning program down and first use Disk Utility to Re-Partition your drive as One Partition.
    Hopefully that will get rid of the encryption you enabled and give you a clean freshly formatted drive to clone to.
    Then start up the cloniing software and do as pointed out above.

  • Mail suddenly stopped sending outgoing emails!

    I have 4 email accounts in Mail that just stopped sending outgoing emails yesterday without changing anything!
    I have another Mac (OS X 10.6) connected to the same router, I set up one of the email addresses on that with the same details and it works perfectly.
    I've noticed there are a couple of other threads on here with the same thing and they don't appear to have answers, hopefully someone knows something!
    Help, very much appreciated!

    You likely have corrupted settings for your  "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)".  Open Mail>go to Mail's Preferences>Accounts>there set up your Outgoing Mail Server which will INCLUDE resetting up your Password, as its asking you to.  Click on "SMTP Outgoing Mail Server" near the bottom of the Accounts window while your mail account is highlighted in the left hand column.  When you click on SMTP... you will see a drop down box icon offered at the right side of the line.  Click it and then select at the bottom of the the list "Edit SMTP Mail Server".  Fill in the required settings for your ISP mail account using their recommended settings.

    hello.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can't do that in AirPlay Mirroring. AirPlay Mirroring can only mirror your MacBook's display, so you can't do one thing in your Mac's display and another in the TV.
    This is a feature that will arrive in Mavericks. Read > http://www.apple.com/osx/preview

  • Cant send multiple picture from nexus 5

    Cant send multiple picture from nexus 5. Since latest upgrade. Only one by one. Can select multiple but only one can be sent.

    As far as I can tell  BBM sends a compressed copy of the picture first as you can set BBM up to auto accept requests.  When that picture has transferred, underneath the picture will be a button to request a higher quality picture which gets sent to the sender, not sure if sender has to accept or if it auto accepts, but is a good idea for people on networks that don't have unlimited data in their bundle.

  • I am using the mail aplication on my destocktop and even though i can receive i cant send any email from my hotmail account using BT

    i can send emails if i log in throw my internet browser and i can send emails from another network despide BT.i tried everything, i had check the all the settings
    every time i try to send an email that what apper
    my ports as well are set as they should be
    i did visited the apple store and my email worked perfectly there.... can anyone say whats wrong??

    Hi Pitas123
    I am in the UK and had a similar problem. Ii eventually found the problem was due to my BT Home Hub Router.  Not sure where you live, but of you are in the UK, this might work for you.
    I found this fix below on https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4604180?start=15&tstart=0
    It worked for me.  If you can't link to the URL, here is the body of the text
    There's an issue related to the BT homehub that is providing a hostname that is "syntactically incorrect" for several smtp server.
    Here's how you can fix it.
    Using your internet browser, go to the address "192.168.1.254
    - Follow instructions to reset your password if asked.
    - Then go to "Settings", then "Advanced Settings" and "home network"
    You will see there all the devices that are connected or that has been connected before. It's gonna be easyer if yout computer is the only one connected.
    Your computer should have a name like "unknown-xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ...
    Click on this name, chose another name without any special characters, like "macbook" for exemple.
    And then click on "apply"
    - restart your computer.
    That should fix the issue.
    Credit goes to vincentfromcork for providing me with the solution.
    Hope it works for you.  If it does, spread the word ;-)

  • Cant send/recieve email from iPhone on wifi - 3G works fine

    I cant send or recieve email on my iPhone / iPad when on WIFI - when I turn off WIFI, it all works fine on 3G. I tried to delete my exchange-account, and then both gmail accounts works fine on wifi. Any thoughts?
    ...or rather; I think maybe it sends/recieves, but it takes a very long time.

    Make sure that your router is setup to not block any ports.
    as well check with your ISP to ensure those servers are not blocked.
    you shouln't have any issues with receiving mail. the outgoing would be the only issue you should be having.
    make sure you add an alternate SMTP server (using your ISP's server) to send email when on wifi
