Email false spam rejections

When is Verizon going to get off its butt and do something about the problem its third party spam filterer is causing with sending email attachments etc.
Email with the following link was rejected over 10 times by Verizon as being a spam. http://navycaptain-therealnavy.blogspot.com/2010/01/number-two-in-our-countdown-is-captain.html
The link is not spam and was only being sent to one person.
This is not the first time I have experienced this PITA.
Twelve hours later the same email went straight away.
Verizon is maybe not ready for prime time with this FIOs.

First, Verizon's webmail and FiOS services are unrelated. Dial, DSL and FiOS customers all use the exact same email.
Second, you can report false positives, and should whenever possible. The spam filters are a dynamic or learning system. Blocks are placed on content based on what people report as spam, and removed based on what people report as not spam. You can send any email that you are trying to send that you do not think is spam as an attachment to [email protected] for review.

Verizon filtering OUTGOING email as spam now

My sister sent me an email with a home listing of a house she wants to buy.
I tried to forward it onto other people that I know.
However, I get this from Verizon's mail server:
9:58:43 PM S:550 5.7.1 The message you attempted to send was determined to be spam. Please visit http://www.verizon.net/spamfaq for more information.
Seems all of a sudden Verizon has determined that they'll filter their outbound email for spam, you get NO recourse if they falsely identify something as spam, you cannot call, contact anybody about it and all verdicts are final.
This is the last straw. In 6 months when my contract is up, I'm switching back to Road Runner.

So I'm guessing you're using verizon.net email?
You're going to switch to RoadRunner and use their email now?
You'll have to service, sign up for new service, and equipment/etc..etc just to switch email accounts just to fix a "spam" issue,
Why not just use a better email provider?
Use gmail or something, then your email itself isn't tied on your ISP.

I cannot send email - error message as follows : 'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk.' I can send email from other apple devices, and the email settings are identical. Any ideas?

For some reason I cannot send email - all was working fine, but now I get the following error message when I try to send email:
'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk'
I can receive incoming mail ok and I can send email from other Apple devices. The problem seems confined to my Mac Book Pro.
Ant ideas?

Hi,
I had the same issue on my iPhone 5S. My internet/email provider told me to uncheck (turn off) USE SSL under Mail settings, and it worked perfectly for me.

How do I mark unwanted emails as spam

how do I block unwanted emails Better yet!!!! how can I mark unwanted emails as spam?

Who is the email carrier?
Gmail app has an option to mark each email as Spam.
In the desktop Yahoo, AOL, etc, there are Spam controls you can use, and emails go to the Spam folder on the phone.
If the mail app you are using doesn't have an option to mark as Spam, then go to your computer and see if you can set up Spam controls for the email there. When the app syncs it should filter the spam according to the rules you've set up on your computer.

I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address" was rejected by server by sever

I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address" was rejected by server by sever

I set up my email the way the phone and iPad do. Very simple. It works most the time, but I am usually on wifi also. I ran into problem saying email was rejected by server, and it put email in my outbox. I looked in here to see if anyone had a good solution, then realized after reading the post I never actually checked my servers. My actual servers were different than the defaults that were set up. Example : the default server was mail.roadrunner.com, but the actual should be pop-server.roadrunner.com, and same for the smpt-server.roadrunner.com. Based on the ISP, must have the correct servers. But I was always able to send while on wifi. That part I did not understand. But since I fixed the servers, I have not seen any problem sending on either the iPad or iPhone. If you have not found fix, hope this may help if still having problem

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

Just downloaded iOS 7.0 on iPhone and now cannot send email -sender address rejected by server???

What happens when you go to the web based mail for your email account?
Are you able to login and send / receive messages from the web?
If so, you might need to check outgoing email settings on your iPhone
Settings > Mail, Contacts Calendars
Tap on the account you are having an issue with
Tap on the email address beside the word Account
Tap on info beside SMTP (SMTP = outgoing mail server)
Tap on the SMTP server name again.
Make sure server is turned on
Check settings & port info, password, etc.
Good luck!

I get the following message when sending emails: The recipient "email address" was rejected by the server". If I send the email to 3 people, one will be rejected and a different person will be rejected. Any ideas?

How to send emails to spam folder?

I just got my Note4 and the phone's Help tells me that I need to select the email, then the bottom menu will populate with a little red circle with a + in it. I am to click that and the email address is sent to spam. But my bottom menu is NOT giving me that spam icon to click. How can I block emails? Or how can I get that little icon to show up?
Thanks!!

Yes, I have unsubscribed to the emails that allowed me too. Now I would
like to block spefic addresses and/or domains.
My email addresses are @verizon.net, @gmail.com and a corporate one. I am
using Gmail for the Gmail accounts and using the default email service that
came on the phone. It's icon is an envelope with a red @
I know the gmail service allows me to easily click "report spam" but using
note 4 how can I block emails in my verizon.net account and corporate
account?
Thanks.

Iphone 4S- getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", any one a suggestion?

I have tried everything from reading different online suggestions (that is going into setting-mail, contacts, etc. and look at outgoing server and making sure setting is correct...) and still getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", I have tried resetting network and also hard reboot. Nothing seems to work and would greatly appreciate any new suggestion?
Thank you.

It could be a typo in the 'return adress' field, a setup problem by the sender of the email. Unless you can reply to the same email sometimes successfully. Have a look at the actual address you are trying to send to, often he errors are obvious.

Verify you have the correct user name and password in Mail, Contacts, and Calendars
Also check to make sure you have your username entered into your outgoing server option.
Mail, Contacts, Calanders > Email Account > Account > SMTP > Primary Server > Verify your username and password are entered in here.

Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and deleting the password there. While there, run Keychain First Aid.
