Cox BUSINESS Email Setup for iPad

I have a *Cox Business* internet account (business accounts are *different from* residential accounts - different servers, etc) with a static ip address and I cannot send email from my iPad via wi-fi Airport network. (Wi-Fi only iPad, not 3G.)
There was a time when I had it working, but a simple one sentence email would take over 10 minutes to send. It was odd. Now it's not sending at all.
My incoming email is through my business email account (via GoDaddy) and it works well. No issues.
Currently, the outgoing settings on my iMac work great for my iMac, but don't seem to translate to the iPad. These iMac setting are:
*iMac Outgoing Email Settings:*
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smarthost.coxmail.com
Custom port: 25
Authentication: none
*iPad Outgoing settings* that previously worked (sort of):
Host name: smarthost.coxmail.com
User: blank
Pass: blank
Use SSL: Off
Authentication: MD5 Challenge-Response (it will NOT set to password - will not "stick" or save on exit)
Server Port: 587
+Any help would be appreciated.+

I had actually written a message previously that I just deleted explaining that what you had written doesn't work. I've tried it several times and it made no difference.
Then, I did something that I have not attempted or noticed:
I reset the outgoing cox settings to match my iMac settings listed above (that previously would not work), BUT in the order of listed outgoing servers my mobileme outgoing server (which actually works for outgoing MobileMe emails; don't know why) was listed first in the Primary slot.
It was "On" and I turned it "off" leaving only my cox outgoing settings turned on and it is in the secondary/backup slot. I then sent a test email and it worked just fine.
So the answer is that the settings for ipad outgoing cox business email are the same as your mac/computer, but do not have your MobileMe outgoing server turned on and, for some reason, do not have the cox server set in the primary slot. For example, if I put the cox server in the primary slot then it doesn't work anymore. Weird.
If you do not have MobileMe then I'm not sure what to say, but I have tried these settings with cox being the only outgoing server in the primary slot and it did not work... For me.

How to use AirPlay mirroring with Cox TV Connect app for iPad?

I just bought an Apple TV 3 yesterday because I have been using the Cox TV Connect app for iPad a lot lately because I lost a lot of my favorite channels when I got rid of the higher teir of Cox Cable due of the price, and I can veiw these channels on my iPad now with the Cox TV Connect app. I thought if I bought an Apple TV I could use the AirPlay feature to stream the live TV shows from the iPad app to the TV through Apple TV and unfortuneately the option wasnt there, so I tried to mirror the iPad screen to the Apple TV but I dont have the option in the multitasking bar, anyone know why this is? I have updated the iPad and Apple TV to the software update that was just recently released. Even when im not using the Cox TV app on the iPad I still cant mirror my screen to the Apple TV, but I can do so with the iPhone 4S.

That document is describing what you say you are already seeing. It is talking about enabling the air play button in "apps like Videos, Music etc" as you described. So if you have the AirPlay button showing up in the iOS music and video players is it working as it is supposed to. So what is it you are not seeing?

Anyone find a good email app for ipad yet?

The provided email application for ipad is really bad for many things and I need one that doesnt take several actions to do what takes a single action on other systems (like my phone and my computer and my Audrey Ergo)
Problems:
- To use multiple accounts you need to go through like 5 taps to see email in each - this is the straw for me BTW
- Cant seem to find how to change the behavior on deletion. When 'delete' from the ipad i just want it to be "deleted from the ipad". Take NO action on the server.
- Email notification/'push'/check is non-deterministic and too infrequent. I want to have it done when I want it to have it done. Like "every 5 minutes". Not "sometime near the frequency of every 15 minutes - but we cant be certain"
- I want to have the frequency different for different accounts.
Any suggestions on an email application that rivals the competition in the basic functionality (those above at least)?
Thanks

I also am looking for a better email client. I need the ability to use folders and have email go directly to these folders when checking email. Just sending all email to only one inbox folder is just to confusing. I like the ability to search for email but this feature only helps to a degree. An example would be... I like all my email from tennis friends on my team to go to a separate email folder. I can do this in Microsoft Outlook and this feature makes it a lot easier to view things. Right now the email client is like a physical filling cabnet that has only one folder. The email client does try to group related emails together that I don't think works very well. So far not all email from one person are being grouped together. Some are but not all so I don't know what criteria it is using to determine what is grouped together. To work better I would like every piece of email from the same person to be grouped together. But then again wouldn't it be easer to just have a separate folder for each person or group of people. The reason for this is at a glance there are so many emails in my inbox that I sometimes miss an email. Using folders would allow me to check and scan my inbox a lot easier when there are only maybe a dozen email to view.
Anyone else would like to see this feature?

What is the best email client for ipad 2

what is the best email client for ipad 2

Im going to go ahead and assume your talking to me?
    I ended up in this thread in search of a functional Exchange ready mail client capable of supporting multiple mail profiles. Since there are no free applications to accomplish this in the app stor, which I can find, I figured I'd leverage the 'community' for some direction before throwing good money after bad.
   As I assume Im not the only one to do this, I figured I'd help straighten these folks out on the lingo (as they werne't applying it properly) and the sassy 'sound like apple users' comment references the way ANTI-apple folks assume you people are less than adequite users.
   If I called an apple an orange, you would say I was wrong. If I did it repeatedly, after correction, you would assume Im incompetant.
   Seriously, its a stupid machine and will only do what you tell it. (true for all computers, apple or otherwise)
   So if I ask for a mail client, dont give me a provider. If I ask for a service, dont name a client.
    Your right, this post is old. And stilll doesnt have an answer. . .
    In response to MichelPM, I didnt call your baby ugly. The 'Bandwagoning' is cute though. My advice is sound, and helping you folks not to look so... well... stupid.
    Since you interceded though, how about a little help? What mail client do you use? Is it exchange Compatible, with active sync? Does it offer multi-profile support? And the clients want images in their signatures, and multi signature support. (I can do this with my android phone )
Im looking forward to your responses.

POP3 & IMAP Email setup for both Wifi & Cell use separately...

Hello,
I was asked to post info about this by an iPhone support rep.
I initially had lots of trouble setting accounts for use with both my WiFi home and office networks and for use through the ATT cell network.
If you have a question as to how to setup email for both WiFi and Cell use, answer is you can't configure these manually and you don't want to...the phone does this automatically...and seamlessly. (you will NOT see the change in the advanced settings menu, this occurs internally, the settings appear the same)
The problem: Accounts changing settings automatically...when manually configuring two separate accounts with the same email address but trying to setup the outgoing settings for different ports...one for WiFi (your broadband server acct / port 587) and one for Cell (cwmx.com / port 25)...THIS WON'T WORK!! My WiFi configured email accounts would automatically switch to Cellular configured email accounts as long as they had the same email address. Even though I gave them different names, the phone looks at the "actual email address" and if they are the same it changes your configuration to match the other account (it does this by matching the account that was either ON or OFF first and as soon as you match the second account to that setting (either ON or OFF) the phone switches the settings to match the first account.
The Solution: (End of the Story first for those who have or are facing this problem): Be sure to setup the email accounts for use with your WiFi account first (and ONLY), as when you leave the WiFi area or turn off the WiFi setting the email account will automatically reconfigure itself for use with the ATT Cellular network...then the settings will switch back when you re-connect to the WiFi area(s). The settings that you will "SEE" are your setup for WiFi, this will not change even when using the Edge network (at least not what is displayed in the "advanced" menu). You will still see Port 587, even though the phone is changing setups internally and changes back once back on a WiFi network, you just don't see the changes.
*I hope this helps!*
(more details below for those who might be interested and _for those who may be trying to setup using COMCAST Broadband_)...
My issue began because I could not get my Comcast setup to work for outgoing email. So I was advised to setup for the Edge port settings by an iPhone support person from ATT...this was a huge error. Because I attempted to do this it actually kept the phone from smoothly converting settings as needed. I only discovered this after resolving the actual problem with my WiFi (Comcast Broadband settings) issue which was actually the setup that MUST HAVE a user ID and Password, at least when using a Comcast Broadband account. Unlike the rest of my XP and ME computers on my networks which do not require this info, the iPhone DOES.
Because I could not get outgoing mail to work with my broadband setup I attempted to setup two accounts for each email address...one for Cellular and one for WiFi for when I would figure out my problem...or for just sending email more quickly. This does not work as the conflict causes a nightmare. This is something the iPhone support folks should have explained but failed to do so, perhaps as they didn't know this?
Bottom line: Let the phone do the choosing...it works great and will avoid YOU wasting TWO DAYS and more than 12 hours on the phone with iPhone Support as I did. I eventually figured the port switching issues and solutions on my own through trial and error and luckily one bright iPhone support person advised me that he knew for sure that when using the iPhone with Comcast you must setup "outgoing settings" using an "ID" and "Password" which I was provided by Comcast in only a few minutes. I don't use their emial account but I setup one just for this purpose. Once done, my email accounts began working normally. Once I resolved the conflict issues listed above the phone now works great both WiFi and Cell.

fullspool,
Comcast offers an authenticating SMTP server that should work for you on WiFi and EDGE both.
The settings are linked in this Apple knowledge base article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306074
The Comcast link is:
http://www.comcast.net/help/faq/index.jsp?faq=Emailtop18913
From that link the settings are:
Your email address: [email protected]
The email server type (POP)
Incoming mail server: mail.comcast.net
Outgoing mail server: smtp.comcast.net
With SSL on for both incoming and outgoing.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Outgoing Email Setup for Knology - Does anyone know the server setting?

A friend cannot find the Knology server settings for outgoing mail...Knology company was no help.
Does anyone know the proper settings?
Thanks

DBunch07,
I was able to find this site in their support pages:
http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
If the suggested setting from there smtp.knology.net, does not work, they may require different settings for when you aren't connected directly to them. For example when using EDGE or a WiFi Hotspot.
I have found that asking email provider's tech support for what mail server settings to use while you are travelling and using a laptop will often get the correct settings to use for the iPhone. However, if they say they only offer webmail for when you are travelling, you will not be able to use their outgoing server on EDGE or at WiFi Hotspots, because they have chosen to block outgoing access when you are not on their network.
While connected to EDGE, you can use cwmx.com to send email out. It only works while on EDGE, and does not require a username or password, since it goes off of the authentication for using EDGE with AT&T.
AT&T's knowledge base article about cwmx.com is here:
http://www.wireless.att.com/support/knowledgeBase.do?content=KB72769.html
You will have to turn off WiFi when you want to send email though.
This article discusses the issues in more depth:

Hope this helps,

Email help for iPad 2 please

Hi all, whenever I send a message my email puts in my full name in capital letters as the sender. I have never used my full name for email and I certainly don't want it all in caps. I went to Apple ID to see if I could change it there, but my name is in lower case, so I am stymied...I don't know what else to try. It's gotten to the point that I won't send email on my iPad...I'll go to my desktop computer and that's sooo inconvenient...
Thanks for any help!
Martina

Did you check the Email Settings under Settings->Mail,Contacts,Calendars? Check there first. Each email account created has a 'Name' field (unless it's an Exchange account).

Email setup for Test Workbench

Hi
I am looking to setup Email notifications for Test Workbench.
Such as, automatically emailing testers when Test packages are assigned
Emailing Developers when a Test Problem Report is created.
How do i do this? Does anyone have any documentation they can share?
Really need some help.
Many thanks

Yes Ramesh,
By setting up ChaRM the following actions can be triggered automatically,
1) When a requestor creates support message based on an error, service desk employee will be notified automatically
2) A developer will be notified when a change manager in the service desk assigns a developement task assigns.
3) When the developer completes the task, change manager will be notified again.
4) Then, a tester will be notified when change manager assigns a tester.
and many other things also there in the sequence.
Regards,
Satish.

Email asking for iPad feedback - is this really from Apple?

Hi,
I bought an iPad last summer and received an email today from [email protected] asking me to take part in a survey.
I have not opened the mail. Does anyone know if it is spam?

apple.com is a valid email server for Apple.
Maybe so, but surely you know it is very easy to fake an email to make it look as though the email comes from an @apple.com email address?
More important is to look at where the survey link in the email takes the user to, and what personal information does it ask for.
According to a quote attributed to Steve Jobs, Apple doesn't do market research:

My Galaxy S III email setup for Yahoo isn't working

I'm not able to setup my Galaxy S III for Yahoo mail. I get an message 80315, that the username or password is incorrect. They're not--I tried several times! I tried using both the Yahoo setup and the generic Other manual setup. It retrieved all the info from Yahoo OK, but at the end gave me the same message, about my username or password being incorrect.
(I encountered a similar problem with live.com, which I was able to fix using the Manual setup.)

Yahoo email setup has been troublesome for a while for android devices. Try the Yahoo app from the Play Store instead.

At&t email settings for ipad?

what are the exact steps for setting up AT&T email on an iPad?

Check the AT&T site for new info on email. Certain conditions apply depending on when the account was established.
Since you have other devices, you should really be using imap so all will stay synced.
Incoming server: imap.mail.yahoo.com port 993 SSL
Outgoing server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com port default. SSL
Another thing is to check Keychain. First use keychain first aid to verify that it is ok. Then find all passords for that account and delete them. There may be multiple passwords for it, so check for all. Go back into mail prefs and reinput the passwords for the account.

Email setup for BB curve 8520

I want to setup an email and the Email setup options on my BlackBerry only shows "I want to use work email account.....", when I choose Next, an Enterprise Activation password is required. I don't know what this is about, nor did I set any password related to this. Need help! Many thanks....

I assume you wish to use your personal email on the phone in which case you need a Blackberry Data Plan (normally called a BIS plan) so give your carrier a call. If you want to use your work email you need to contact your works IT department.
