Duplicate SMTP Servers

I've been trying to set up email on my iPod Touch, and in doing so, have added and removed my Gmail account a few times. I how find that I have the Gmail ougoing mail server listed multiple times in the SMTP list.
How can I remove the duplicates?
thanks.

I'm having problems with Leopard! My son just updated to Snow Leopard on his new laptop, but I'm on Leopard. We're on the same network, though. This morning, when I opened Mail, it acted like there was an update for it. My outgoing server list (for 6 email accounts!!! on different kinds of servers - including the MobileMe server) was erased, my signatures were erased, my customized toolbar was put to default, my font settings were put to default.
I put the server back into the server list. Nope. Offline.
I used a separate user account and reproduced one of the email addresses there, and it's just fine.
I created a new email account in my main user account (to see if deleting and email account and putting it back in would help). Nope. Outgoing server offline.
The "send" button is grayed out.
SCREAMINGGG! I'm repairing my permissions and zapping the PRAM shortly. I tried putting the plist in the trash, but then all my accounts went away. Back went the plist.
Can anyone please, please, please help me???????
I'd call Apple, but since the Applecare on my MacPro expired on November 7, I'm hosed. They want to charge me $50 to fix their problem (which is now my problem).

I have a lengthy list of SMTP servers due to problems setting up iPhone 5s. I was able to remove one entry, however, I am unable to remove any more duplicates. How do I remove the dups?

Duplicate Identical Other SMTP Servers

Like others that have posted I have duplicate entries for an IMAP account I have setup on my iPhone.
1. Why do I have duplicate entries showing up under Other SMTP Servers?
2. Are they all required.
3. If not, how do I get rid of the duplicates?
Thanks,
G

I've had a similar lack of success on my iPhone 3G. There are three ways in which this has failed:
• I've carefully copied the SMTP settings from a working Mail.app account, but the iPhone 3G consistently tells me that the account cannot be verified, which prevents it from being added to my list of SMTP servers.
• I've also tried syncing mail accounts using iTunes, which just causes iTunes to hang.
• Lastly, I set my personal email address (personal web domain) to use the SMTP server for a gmail account. This will send the email, but it appears to the recipient as coming from the gmail address, NOT from the personal address.
In all three cases, iPhone's SMTP behavior has proved to be completely unacceptable. I may be returning my iPhone in the near future.

Duplicate smtp profiles

My iPhone is with O2 and is running V 4.2.1
I have smtp.o2.co.uk as my primary SMTP
I have three more versions of it in my Other SMTP servers - plus the one for mail.authsmtp.com that I use for WiFi.
I tried tidying it up yesterday as per this thread:-
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2442324
In the process the ability to send messages died and I had to re-install my three email addresses again from scratch.
What are these duplicates? Do the do any harm? Is there a safe way to get rid of them?

You can export the certificate from a CAS server, import it into the Edge server, and enable it for SMTP, but that's probably not what you want. What the SMTP certificate name should have is the hostname that's used, i.e., the Internet
A record of the server, which may not be the server name depending on what you publish. That's the same name that's pointed to by the MX record.
This article explains it:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998840(v=exchg.141).aspx
Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."
i did not add the edge servers name ! i did not pay attention to TLS thing and ...
I just wanted all my accepted domains in any access method including outlook, OAW, OWA, Activesync clients to be protected by the cert and now they are
the edge server names and MX records are the same
I mean the MX records are edge1.domain.net and this is the name of the server too (edge1)
do you recommend adding these names to the SAN's List too ? any value in it ?

How do you delete outgoing (SMTP) servers???

Due to the fact many SMTP servers require you to be on their network to login, I have at varioius times set up 3 different SMTP servers in the mail app setup. The mail app never forgets them once you set them up. It even remembers multiple copies of the same SMTP server where I just tried different settings/passwords. The mail app adds all these SMTP accounts (I now have 7 including "other SMTP servers") when I only set up one after deleting the account and starting over. Worse yet, these 7 represent only 3 unique servers and when it's trying to test the outgoing (SMTP) server at setup, it takes forever while it tests all 7 apparently.
Deleting mail account doesn't get rid of these SMPT servers. Resetting iPhone doesn't work because it restores them from from backup in iTunes. There should be some way to get mail app to forget every server/name/password combination you have ever entered when trying to get connected to an outgoing server.
Lest anyone think this is unecessary, keep in mind you can't send from home via cmwx server if you get bad cell coverage. You can't send away from home if you are off your home network, and you can't send from a hotel room with wi-fi access if you have no cell coverage. I fianlly set up a mail account that can be connected to from anywhere, but now I can't get rid of all the rest!

Seems that the only way to clear them out would be to perform a Restore in iTunes and set up as a new phone (not from backup). Note that this is also the only way to clear out the email address autofill list (and that one affects a lot more people than the SMTP server list, I'm sure).
You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

How to configure multiple smtp servers per domain

Hi,
how do we configure multiple smtp servers per domain/corporate in iplanet messaging server 5.2. i wanted to do this so that i can configure some domains with virus scanning and some domains without antivirus.

Hi Martin,
Well we are trying to run a report without exactly specifying the name of reports server anywhere, e.g. in database or in form or anywhere else. Now if I do not supply a reports server name using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, the error it displays is FRM-41211: Integration Error : SSL failure ... However if I specify the reports server name in the form, the reports run perfect. Also the name of reports server is specified in rwservlet.properties.
Now the question goes as follows:
Can I run my report from Form without specifying the name of the Reports server anywhere at all. This is so because either an in-process reports server should be picked or the one which is entered in rwservlet.properties should be pickec up by default. Please correct us if we are wrong. once we are through with it, we have to move to Oracle 10gR2 concept of reports server.
Thanks in anticipation,
Ruchi/Saurabh

Can I setup multiple SMTP servers / emails with one IMAP servers on the iPh

All my email arrives at one place, on one IMAP server. However I have 2 email addresses, and need to use a different SMTP server for each one. How to setup this on the iPhone? This is what I considered so far:
1. I don't see how to enter multiple addresses for the same account, and map each address to a SMTP server.
2. If I create multiple accounts, I have to enter multiple IMAP server, and the iPhone doesn't let me enter the same IMAP server information for different accounts.
3. I could create a second account with a dummy IMAP/POP server, and a real SMTP server. But then most likely if I respond to mails that arrive on my IMAP server (1st account), Mail will always use my 1st email address when responding. Instead I'd like it to automatically pick as From the To address of the mail I am responding to (as the desktop Mail.app does).
Alex

If you have multiple SMTP servers available, you can select from one of the available SMTP servers for a particular account.
After you've entered the SMTP server for the first account when creating the 1st account and you've entered the SMTP server for a 2nd account when creating the 2nd account, you'll have both SMTP servers available to use with either or both accounts.

Can't send email with SMTP servers

Not sure if I have the right SMTP server but I'm using mail.1xbell.ca and have also tried smtp.bellaliant.net. I can receive fine but can't send. It just times out. Tried it on 3G and WIFI.
I'm using Aliant in Newfoundland, Canada for my email and the phone is with Telus. The tech dude at Aliant wouldn't tell be dick all because the phone is with another carrier even though my email is with Aliant.
Any suggestions in getting this fixed?

If the email account provider for the email account is not the internet service provider associated with the wi-fi network your iPhone is connected to at the time and the email account provider for the email account does not have an authenticated SMTP server, you won't be able to send with the account - unless you have access to the ISP's SMTP server being used for your internet connection at the time.
As already provided, most if not all ISPs block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of the ISP's network or that isn't provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
A MobileMe account is my primary email account which has an authenticated SMTP server and I've never had a single problem sending with the account from my iPhone over the last 3 years regardless my internet connection at the time - various wi-fi networks with different associated ISPs or when connected to AT&T's cellular network.
Having an account with an authenticated SMTP server is the key.

A tip on how to get mail to work with O2 SMTP servers.

I found I had a problem in Mountain Lion where Mail could not log into the O2 SMTP servers even though I was using the exact same settings that were on my iPhone, iPad and MBP running Lion?
Well I finally found a solution.
In Mail open preferences and click on Accounts and select the account in the lefthand pane.
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) and in the drop down menu select Edit SMTP Servers to get:
Normally the radio button against Use Default Ports would be checked, instead check Use Custom Port and insert the number 25 and click OK.
Now back at the Accounts window click on Advanced at the top to get:
Make sure you have Port 110, on mine changing the SMPT to 25 also altered this to 25 so worth checking. When you have finished close the preferences and click on save, quite Mail then restart hopefully all should work now.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

Exchange 2010 Receive Connector intermittently getting an SMTP RSET from sending SMTP servers causing missing user email

Users are receiving about 95% of their messages from sending SMTP servers. Intermittently, sending SMTP servers send the Exchange 2010 Server a SMTP RSET command for no apparent reason. The RSET Command (by SMTP specification) causes the Exchange 2010 Server
to drop the message. The sending SMTP servers then do not resend the message after asking the Exchange server to drop the message. This means the message is marked as Sent by the sending servers but the dropped messages never show up in the users' Outlook
inbox.

Hi,
According to the receive connector log, your emails were failed to be deliverd with DNR. If I misudnerstand the meaning, please feel free to let me know. If yes, I'd like to confirm the detail information in the DNR to narrow down the
cause.
Additionally, based on my research, the RSET command performs an SMTP reset, and then aborts the message that is currently being sent. Thus, the log didn't provide more information for troubleshooting. Is there any other error in your event log? please check
the event log when the issue happens again.
Thanks,

How to send the same message to two SMTP servers

hi,
I need to send a message to two different SMTP servers.
I want to avoid the creation of new MimeMessage with a new Session.
the only way I've found was to keep a reference to the Properties instance that was used in the Session creation, and modify its "mail.smtp.host" property.
Is there another way? I must be missing something.
thanks,
ofer

hi,
I've already found the solution, so I'll post it here.
first I'll explain the purpose:
I needed to send the same message to a normal email server, and (for some of the recipients) to a special SMTP server that is on a different machine.
the following code demonstrate the solution.
thanks for your help.

----------code---------------
public class MultipleSendTest {
private final static Session server1 = createSession("somesmtp_server.com");
private final static Session _server2 = createSession("another_smtp_server.com");

//create the message
MimeMessage m = new MimeMessage(_server1);
m.setText("body text");
m.addRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, "[email protected]");

send(m, _server1);
send(m, _server2);

TS1307 Mail tends to forget that it viable smtp servers.

I have a brand new Mac Mini, running 10.8.2.
Problem: Mail tends to forget that it has one or more viable smtp servers.
It, periodically, will not send unless I manually run the connection doctor, which shows that all the servers are indeed there, and working properly. After running the connection doctor, it will then succeed in sending the email.
I have multiple other macs that work fine, but not this one.
This would not be a problem but the machine is for the use of an 80 year old person. It needs to be absolutely bomb proof, and it is not.
Suggestions?

I'm familiar with a similar sequence and situation.
In short: iPad. Profiles.
In general, I'd suggest acquiring an iPad for the octogenarian; that works quite well.
As for the various triggers, remove and re-add the accounts and confirm the settings, as that can sometimes clean up the issues with a latent account corruption.
There's another possible trigger, where the settings are being tweaked by the user (whether intentionally or not), and you can use the profiles mechanisms to address that, and lock down the settings.
Another trigger I've encountered and that can toss up various weird errors are transient network problems; Mail.app is far too willing to toss a password dialog box, and that can lead (reasonably) to the user entering random passwords into the dialog box, and Mail.app can get tangled with other local WiFi connections.
Further down the list of things to check — but still possible — is flaky DNS. Some ISP DNS is gnarly.

Can't set internal SMTP servers, breaking anti-spam

Hi, in our on-premise Exchange there is a PowerShell setting,
Set-TransportConfig -InternalSMTPServers , which is used to inform Forefront Protection for Exchange ("FPE") of any non-Exchange SMTP servers that might be handling messages before they arrive at Exchange. This setting is necessary to ensure
that the anti-spam functionality of FPE can properly look back through the message header and determine which internet host actually delivered the message, and determine if that host is on a blacklist, or whatnot.
In Exchange Online Protection, though, it seems that there is no argument under Set-TransportConfig to establish such settings. I *can* see the setting under Get-TransportConfig, but I can't set it.
This is a problem for us because we route mail internally first via on-premise, non-Exchange mail gateways before the messages are routed to Exchange Online. Exchange online always believes that our internal mail gateways are the originating server, when
in fact, it's one hop back. The result is that Exchange Online's anti-spam functionality is not working correctly.
How can I address this issue? I can't really re-route my MX record directly to the cloud yet.

Hi Jouni, thanks for your response.
Turns out that the Citrix Access Gateway wasn't set up until yesterday evening and by then I had stopped trying for the day. It is now set up and external access is available.
Further to this, my colleague forgot to inform me of the change of I.P. address of the Exchange server. This meant that Webmail requests were pointing to an I.P. address that didn't exist.
I have reconfigured the firewall this morning and external access for Webmail is also working correctly.

Sending email from 2 SMTP servers

Hi Experts,
We have users from different domains in 1 client. Emails are send out from different domains. We directed SCOT to 1 of the SMTP server, and the email administrator will setup relays from this SMTP server to other SMTP servers. But now, some are saying that relays are not secure and that it should be removed. Hence, we are trying to find alternative.
How am I able to add another SMTP node in SCOT so that email from different domains are directed to different SMTP servers directly?
Thanks,
TM

You will not find anything from SAP to support your claim.
SAP designed its system to be able to send emails to a single SMTP node. That is a fact and it is logical because SAP Netweaver is not a dedicated mail software.
If you have more complex needs, you have to find a workaround.
In my company, my solution was to install an SMTP relay software managed by the SAP administration team.
Therefore we can set our own routing rules for incoming or outgoing mails from our SAP systems (ECC, SRM, CRM, etc...)
This SMTP relay can then send or receive emails from the company SMTP official servers.
Regards,
Olivier

Mail fails to connect to smtp servers after 10.9.3 update

Wiped hard drive and installed 10.9 plus 10.9.3 combo updater.
90% of my email accounts cannot connect to their smtp servers.
Created a new user account and setup Mail with an account with the same result.

Confirmed.
At my University, I have a locally produced .mobileconfig file that is used to set up network, mail and all other access on a new Mac / Macbook. Further, the University uses a self-signed certificate to authenticate all connections.
Up until 10.9.2, Mail worked normally as it should.
After 10.9.3, Mail works for the imap server (and I can receive email fine) but sending email via the smtp server fails at all times except the ones noted below (read on). Connection doctor says that smtp server rejected authentication and advises me to recheck my username and password (needless to add - they are correct).
smtp connections work if:
1. I delete all Mail accounts.
2. Use the University-supplied .mobileconfig file to recreate all accounts (LDAP, mail, wifi, etc.).
If however, I close my macbook to sleep it, or change network settings (go from proxied to non-proxied mode, or vice versa - which was never a problem until now), smtp stops working.
Upshot - smtp works only if I delete my accounts everytime I wake up the macbook and redo steps 1 and 2 above. I have taken to saving contents of the outbox to the drafts folder, and then logging in through the webmail interface to actually send the email.
This is nuts.
Apple's engineers need their heads examined if they think that rolling out an inadequately tested update is acceptable.
