Dodgy email from BT? received via bt yahoo

As I've never had a home repair service and no visit at all on the 30th October, I can only assume this is dodgy - it is of concern that the email filter did not mark it as spam - even more worrying is that this account is my primary account and the only emails with my name on it are from BT!
Comments please.

How can I print my emails from my ipad with my Lexmark printer?. I can print photos & web pages.

Hi there Lindlylou!
I have an article here that can explain a little more about the feature you are referencing, called AirPrint:
AirPrint Basics

That article will contain information about which printers are AirPrint compatible, as well as information about how to use AirPrint on your iPad. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

ipad has stopped receiving email on mail app

Try this...
Double-click the Home button
Swipe left or right and find the Yahoo Mail app
Swipe up on the preview of the Yahoo Mail app to force quit it
Hold down on both the Home AND Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo on black screen (about 10 seconds).
When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of both buttons.
After it restarts, launch Yahoo Mail and see if it works.
Hope this helps!

Emails from computer to anyone with yahoo account have no content. works fine from iphone and i pad

Emails I send via Mail with my iMac show up with no content to anyone with a yahoo e mail account. If I send from my iPad or iPhone, they do show up. So it must be the computer. Suggestions?

Thank you Return, I had tried this earlier thinking it might have helped, but unfortunately it didn't resolve the problem, everything like before. Unlike others who reported problems with streaming which could be traced to poor signal strength, when I switched to Wifi, I had an excellent signal.
Oddly, when I switched on this morning with nothing changed from last night, the streaming worked perfectly in all scenarios (stream from internet, push from Airplay PC, push from Airplay IOS device, pull from ATV Home Sharing). Wary however due to my previous temporary improvements, I stopped a movie halfway in an ATV Home Sharing pull, to see if the same movie could be pushed from the same iTunes PC from which it had been pulled. No luck! And now also no streaming from Internet.
I really don't get it!
(Hmmm - for some reason this reply got marked as "This solved my question", when it didn't, I didn't say that it did, and I can't seem to change it.)

Mass deletion of email from iPhone is possible with Yahoo

I have been able to mass delete messages from my iPhone using Yahoo. I log on to the server and highlight messages in my Inbox that I want to delete and send them to the Trash folder. I then empty the Trash folder. I then log off the server. I then go to my Inbox on my iPhone, hit refresh, and once the connection is made, the email is deleted! This method of deletion only affects the messages stored in your Inbox. If you have any messages in your Trash folder on your iPhone it might be easier or quicker to move the messages back to your Inbox before deleting them. This does not work yet with Comcast.

This is the default behavior with an IMAP account. The same does not work with or applies to a POP account.
The reason you are able to do this with the iPhone's Mail client is because you are accessing your Yahoo account as an IMAP account with Mail on your iPhone.
Firmware update 2.0 nor any future iPhone updates will be able to provide this for a POP account - for any POP account. There is a different protocol involved with each account type which Apple, the iPhone or iPhone firmware updates have any control over nor can solve. There is nothing to solve here.

Issues while sending automatic email from job scheduled via sm36

Dear basis guys,
We are on Netweaver 2004s, ERP 6 .
I am scheduling (in SM36) a standard report output as background job, send its output to a pdf device and send this pdf automatically to email address. Everything is working fine except that I am not able to do the following:
1. Cannot change the email title (APR****-spool request no.) and body from "The Mail Attachment Contains the Print File Created by User..."
2. I need to send the email to several people. Cannot use the distribution list with the pdf device. IF I use in sm36 "spool list recipients" instead, the attachment sent as pdf will result truncated. Not all report lines will show.
Could someone help on any of the above?
Thank you in advance for any input.

Sending email from other location via WiFi

Hi there. My Ipad is working fine. At home with the wireless no problems at all. But outside when I use another WiFi (work, hotel etc) I have a problem sending emails. Receiving no problem but when I send one it keeps on trying to send it but to no avail. How do I fix this? Adrian

"Receiving no problem but when I send one it keeps on trying to send it but to no avail. How do I fix this?"
The fix I recommend to my friends is to subscribe to

It costs a few pounds a year and works anywhere in the world (in my experience). Saves a lot of time for a traveller.
Good UK based support as well.

Sending email from Outlook Express via Parallels

Outlook Express works just fine for receiving emails, but I can't get it to send an email. Is there something special I should look for. I use earthlink.net.

This is most likely due to a misconfigured SMTP sever setting. Most ISP's force you to authenticate to the SMTP server, if your using a different account for receiving then you are for sending this may be it. I've also seen where an Anti-Virus software is blocking port 25, SMTP, out to prevent the spread of worms. This is most likely not a problem with Parallels or the Mac but mis configured email client.

Sent emails from Yahoo or iphone dont appear in sent mail folder on MacBook

Please can someone help? My email account is with Yahoo mail (free one); I can send and receive emails without a problem from Mail on my MacBook. However If i send an email from a browser session in Yahoo mail then the sent email does not appear in my Mail sent folder. Likewise i can send and receive emails on my iphone but the sent emails do not appear in either my Yahoo Sent folder or my Mail sent folder.

that's because yahoo only offers POP access. that's a limitation of POP. it only downloads your inbox messages from the server. it does not do any kind of syncing and it does not download or up load sent messages. if you want that you need to switch to an email provider that offers IMAP (yahoo doesn't). IMAP syncs everything with the server so you'll get the same mailboxes contents everywhere you access that account.

I clicked on links in email from Yahoo hacked account(s). Now what?

I received email from three different people with Yahoo accounts and with several of them I clicked on the links in those emails. I was tired and off-guard and trusted them since I thought they were from my friends, people I knew. I verified they did not send them to me and I have no idea what mailicious code I may now have on my Apple computer from clicking on those links contained in the email I received. Now what do I do? I don't have a Yahoo account. I am wondering if I should change my email address but should I rebuild my Mail or other preventive measures to my MacBook Pro?

Quite likely the link would have taken you to a spoofed Mail delivery site which would have had a malicious attachment which you would be asked to print, etc. This would have had no effect on your iPad even if you had clicked on it. In your case, it looks like the host site had already removed the spoofed web page.

Can't send email from my iPhone...

I am having problems sending email from my iPhone via my ISP and the ISP at work. I can send email through my personal domain from these places using my Mac laptop but not via the iPhone.
Settings for the ISP should be SSL Off for both directions [incoming/outgoing] Authentication: Password and a strange config. for username:
username+mydomain.com not just username and with the + symbol and not the @ I have entered the address correctly and I get Cannot Send Mail
Sending contents of the message to the server failed.
I have also tried:
mail.mydomain.com:567 and :2525 and :465 and all return similar errors
I should mention that I'm able to send mail to the phone and retrieve it successfully but not send from it.
I've tried changing the Uses SSL for Outgoing and still no love. I have verified with my ISP that everything is correct and yet I am still unable to send email from the iPhone.
Any suggestions or troubleshooting tips are greatly appreciated. My ISP is Site5 as well.

Yeah, I read the Apple Tech Doc where it described how to add the port number so I tried 587, 465 and 2525 at the request of my hosting company's Forum userbase. All suggestions were attempted including converting the account on Site5 to IMAP and all tests resulted in no mail being sent and a cryptic error message with no useful details as to why the mail was not able to be delivered [like an error code or something useful]. I too am hoping that Apple says or does something about this in the near future.
Usernames for my ISP must be formatted like so:
username+domain.com
I'm not sure if that's part of the problem but I've been successful at creating accounts for multiple mail clients including GyazMail for Mac, Thunderbird and several other mail clients but for the life of me, I can't get the iPhone to send a single bit of information via SMTP.
Any assistance or news on this front would be greatly appreciated.

Moving emails from mac mail to gmail

This is probably a real simple one but I don't really use Mail that often...
How do I a batch of emails to show up in my gmail account when I log in?
A short time back I had a hotmail account where I stored a lot of emails that contained receipts for products, software, music etc that I had bought online. I had to get rid of this account as someone had managed to hack it and was sending dodgy emails from my account. At the time I used Mail to create an archive of these emails so that I could recall them later.
I've managed to reload them back into Mail no problem but if I log out then go into my gmail account directly they don't appear in the inbox where I have put them in Mail.
Any pointers guys?
Thanks
Bryan

you can set up gmail as IMAP but you'll have to delete the current gmail POP account and set it up from scratch as IMAP. make sure you copy anything you need and which is no longer on the server from the gmail inbox and Sent mailbox to a local mailbox first. you can make a mailbox in "on my mac" section for that purpose. deleting an account deletes all mailboxes associated with it. then go to mail preferences->accounts and add a new account. in the account setup wizard uncheck the box to set it up automatically or it will recreate it as POP again, then create it as IMAP. see this link for correct settings to use.

Name misspelled when sending email from phone.

When I send an email from my phone (e.g. a pic or video), my name is spelled wrong. When I email from my phone using my yahoo account it is correct. Where do I go to fix this? I have already checked the spelling of my name in my Contacts list.

It does not get your name from your entry in the Contacts list.
Go to:
Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> (your Yahoo! account) -> Account
Check the spelling in the "Name" entry.
Good luck!

Can I stop email from being sent?

I have a number of email accounts configured in outlook 2010.
I want to prevent email from being sent via one of the accounts.
CAN I do this?
If so How?
I have tried to change the SMTP address to be invalid.
It does not send, and does not give me an error.
When I close outlook it tells me emails have not been sent. I have no idea where these emails r.
When I restart it, it resets the smtp address and sends the email.

thx for the reply
The problem I am trying to work around is ppl using outlook try to send/reply/fwd emails using those old addresses. Outlook must be configured to rcv mail from clients using those addresses. So if the old email address is set as FROM I want to stop it from
being sent.
if i set the smtp address to an invalid the test never completes and I can never get to the end of that wizard.
If I go back and look at it it is still the invalid address after I cancel the wizard.
If i try to send mail it appears to do it after a long pause and i can't find the email anyplace -but it is not sent.
If i shut down and restart outlook it is back to the valid address and the mail gets sent.
I have it set only rcv, not send, that address in the group but that doesn't work.
