Deleted Mail Account Still Sending Mail

Hi Apple World,
Can anyone explain to me why an old gmail account which I used to have as an account on my Mac is still sometimes coming up as the from address when I send mail?
This has got me in some trouble as people have been "replying" and I have not received it as it goes to my gmail which I do not use. So my boss now thinks I just havent replied! I checked my sent box and sure enough it says sent from [email protected] however the only account I have are a [email protected] and my icloud account.
I have deleted the gmail account entirely from google but can anyone explain how this may have happened as I have deleted other accounts off my mail and would like to make sure I don't have to worry about them.
Cheers,
Linda

  • TS3276 iPhone 4S - Mulitiple mail accounts. Send mail on one account, but reply comes on another

    I have six e-mail accounts for different purposes. I am sending e-mails out on specific accounts and am finding that a response is coming from one of my other accounts. I know you can set a default e-mail account, and I have. But the e-mail that the responses are coming in on are not on the default account, nor on the account I sent it from. It makes absolutely no sense! And, is concerning.
    Does anyone else have, or have had, this probem? If so, is it fixed? How? Help! Thank you!!

    Not sure why, but has your wife tried deleting and manually recreating the account with the iPhone's mail client?

    I am holidaying in Auckland using my daughter's Orcon internet account for sending mail but it will not send. I am sure I am putting in the correct information but it still says mail.orcon.net.nz(Offline). I have spent half an hour with Orcon putting in correct info. They do not know how to help me further and neither does telstra clear, my own internet provider.
    Any advice appreciated.

    On the Mail menubar > Mailbox, make sure Take all accounts online is selected.

  • My e-mail account is sending out spam mails; how can i delete the virus?

    My e.mail account is sending out spam mails; I have got a spam virus probably during download of my e.mails over the i phone. How can i detect and delete the virus?

    You do not have a virus on your Mac or iPhone.
    An AOL account is accessed as an IMAP account with the Mail app or email client on your Mac, and with the iPhone's Mail app. The sent spam messages being available in the account's Sent mailbox means your AOL account has been compromised.
    Change the password for your AOL email account.

  • None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient

    One of our users is having a very strange issue where when he sends email to SMTP recipients he gets an immediate NDR stating "None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient" and the from field of the email is blank if you look in sent items.  I've seen the KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/872896 but it doesn't apply.
    we're running Exchange Server 2003 SP2
    user is running Outlook 2007 SP1 from multiple computers in cached mode
    user has this issue intermittently from all 3 machines... there seems to be no pattern.
    something additional that I've noticed about the emails in the sent items that produce NDRs is that if I double-click the email address in the To field there is a custom email type of "S" specified instead of SMTP which of course isn't custom.  This is surely the reason for the NDR since our exchagne server has no way to route type "S" email messages but the user isn't typing this in and the contacts he's using are correctly set to type "SMTP"
    Has anyone seen this before?
    Miles

    I find this happens fairly regularly but intermittently, almost always to new email addresses that aren't in the users contacts list. I suspected that our users are clicking the 'mailto' link when replying but deleting the autocomplete entry doesn't resolve
    it and it's even happened when it's a new message (not replied or forwarded) to someone the user hasn't emailed before. Generally, if we try again after a few hours then the email will eventually send but it's very frustrating.
    A couple  of our users reported that it was happening to them so I enabled Outlook logging to try and get to the bottom of it, here's the results of one of the log files (they're both pretty much the same)

  • How can I reset all my e-mail accounts because I changed all server settings and messed with stuff on my System E-mai preferences on my MAC not knowing what I was doing and now none of my accounts will send mail: Gmail, yahoo, or iCloud account, help!

    No e-mail account will send what pops up is the message thatI don't have an outgoing e-mail server because the one I want to choose has wrong network key because I took the network key out and don't know where to get the correct one because it was filled in by the system already

  • Is there a way to default send from one mail account across multiple mail accounts?

    I have a user who has her own Exchange mailbox account. I have added two separate Exchange mail accounts. I want to be able to force her (even if she is in one of the other two mail accounts) to send from her own Exchange account. I know you can manually change it every time, but is there a way to force it automatically? Thanks.

    Nope. There is no universal mailbox on the iPhone.

  • Help: Can't delete email account in OSX Mail

    I have verizon.net email account that I had to update because verizon changed the incoming and outgoing servers.
    Each of my family members has a separate profile on my Mac and I was able to successfully update their settings.
    I have the admin account. No matter what I do, I can't get the new server settings to stick in MacOSX Mail.
    So I tried to delete the email account via System Preferences. When I relaunch Mail or System Preferences, the account is stil there. When I try to delete the account from within Mail, I get an error message:
    Account removal failed with error: “The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to find an account for the UID given.”.
    You can try deleting the account from the “Internet Accounts“ preference pane in System Preferences.
    I even tried the steps in this thread using Terminal:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23824890#23824890
    I even tried deleting the account in my Library preferences.
    No luck.
    I had this problem on my 17" MacBook Pro. I just migrated to a Retina MacBook Pro using a Time Machine backup. Same exact problem. I'm thinking there's some bizarro preference thingy that is buried somewhere that needs to be removed.
    Yes, I ran disk utility as well.
    Help me please!

    After closing mail I used a plist editor and edited:
    /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Accounts.plist
    (as always TAKE A BACKUP)
    I removed all key pairs to the offending account.
    Voila.
    Removed.

  • HT3376 I have a Yahoo plus account. When I set up the mail account the Bulk Mail (Trash), Deleted Messages,Draft,Drafts,Junk, and Sent Folders all appear on my iPhone. Is there a way to prevent this?

    I have a Yahoo Account. When I set up the mail account the  Bulk Mail, Deleted Messages, Draft, Drafts, Junk, Sent, and Sent Messages appear on all of my iPhones, my PC, my Macbook and any other wifi product that receives mail. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of these duplicate mailbox folders??
    Thanks

    I just called apple care to even know how to respond to this answer. I am very old and this was my first post ever. I appreciate you taking the time to give me an answer. I also ask them how to delete this account because every time I log in it wants me to change my password and I have run out of passwords. I don't even know what it means when it ask me the community I want to be in.
       The only thing I know about syncing is syncing my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. I apologize that I am so technically stupid. Does mail have syncing???
    Thank you even if I never figure out how to get back to this site again.

    I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some  reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276
    sounds like a corrupt database or index
    the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
    I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

  • Mail will not send mail, only receive.

    I have spent the majority of today re-installing OS X and all necessary updates, music, data after the death of a hard drive. Luckily everything went perfectly, except for the same problem I had with Mail even before the 1st hard drive died. Mail will not send mail, only receive.
    All efforts time out and give me this message: "The connection to the server mail.earthlink.net on port 25 timed out"
    Mail used to send messages, but stopped suddenly in 2004 and has yet to start again. Any idea guys?! I can't figure it out, under Account settings I have necessary fields filled in: Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) is set to "mail.earthlink.net", Server Port is set to 25, and Authentication drop menu is set to None.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    --DANIEL

    This is NOT a problem with Mail or OS X. This is an incorrect settings problem - garbage in = garbage out and this information is certainly available at Earthlink's website and Earthlink also provides technical support.
    Earthlink has an authenticated SMTP server they changed to long ago.
    SMTP Server: smtpauth.earthlink.net
    Server Port: 587 but 25 should work if you are using Earthlink as your internet service provider for connecting to the internet.
    Use SSL: Off or not selected.
    Authentication: MD5 Challenge-Response
    User Name: Your ENTIRE Earthlink email address.
    Password: The account's password - the same password used to check the incoming mail server for new messages.

  • Can receive mail but not send mail

    Hey, I can receive mail but cannot send mail. I previously had bellsouth mail and it worked fine, now I have a Charter.net account and I get a pop up every time I try to send mail saying, Mail couldn't be sent using the POP account Charter.net. I would really appreciate any help that some of you Mac experts could give me. It'd be nice to be able to send e-mail without having to go to the Charter website!
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Lee

    Ernie,
    Is there any chance that this inability to SEND could be fixed by the removal of MessageRules.plist, MessageRules.plist.backup, MessageSorting.plist and MessageSorting.plist.backup that I have seen in other threads on Mail problems? I'm not having a complete failure of Mail, but I can't send mail (only receive).
    I have contacted both my ISP (ATT) and my "second party" mail host (Godaddy.com) and all my settings are correct and things should, in theory, work fine -- but they don't!
