Email from verizon to change account settings

Received the email indicating to change the server in and out setting and to verify that this is a valid change to check my verizon ---If you want to verify the validity of this notification and the instructions contained herein, please sign into your MyVerizon.com account and click on “Check Verizon Announcements” under the “I Want to…” menu bar.
There is no verizon notice posted. Is this change request valid?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is more than likely valid...here is the link to the specific Verizon Announcement--url might wrap:
https://my.verizon.com/central/vzc.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=vzc_help_announcement&id=email_13_01...
Here is the link to the master Verizon Annoucements page--look for the annoucement on 1/29/13:
http://my.verizon.com/central/vzc.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=vzc_help_announcement
Not sure which email software you might be using but if it's Eudora, see the following link--note there is a typo in the first post ("smpt" should be "smtp") so also take a look at all the posts in the thread:

I received an email from verizon telling me that my account is locked and to click on a link to verizon/security to unlock it. Is this a legitimate email from verizon?

I received an email from Verizon telling me that my account is locked and to click on a link Verizon/security to unlock it. Is this a legitimate email from Verizon. How can I find out what this means? My phone is working.

I have never heard of that before, if Verizon Wireless would do anything with your account they would be calling you (removed). In my opinion you should disregard the email.

Iphone stopped receiving emails from verizon; error message wrongly says username and PW incorrect

Yesterday (10/21/13) my iphone 3 stopped receiving emails from my verizon account and error message says &quot;the user name or password for verizon in incorrect,&quot; even though I know the user name and password are correct and I am receiving emails from verizon on my ipad and I mac. In addition, after I &quot;reset.&quot; the phone by pressing the &quot;home&quot; and &quot;off&quot; buttons together until the apple logo appeared, I lost all of the emails that were on the iphone's mailboxes. What is wrong and how do I fix it?

Here is the solution given to me by a very helpful Verizon phone agent. Go to your Verizon mail account under settings. Under Incoming Mail server, change host name to pop.verizon.net.
Under Outgoing Mail Server, change host name to smtp.verizon.net.
Make sure Use SSL is on for Incoming and Outgoing Mail Servers.
She said the above is the solution that has worked for most people who are having trouble receiving and or sending Verizon emails from their Iphones since Monday October 21. She said that if this solution did not work, it is then an Apple problem and I would then need to go to Apple's email client support for troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages (for MAC in my case). After writing down all of the passwords and configurations for verizon email currently on my phone, including the new host names above, I ended up deactiving my verizon email account and then reimputing all of the passwords, configurations, ... . It worked! My verizon email was back and running.

How can I send email from my yahoo alias account in iPhone5 mail?

How can I send email from my yahoo alias account in iPhone5 mail?
I have 2 email accounts: [email protected] is an alias of [email protected]
In my old iPhone3 I had these accounts set up so that I could send and receive email from both accounts. I did this using the following settings:
‘Other’ POP account info:
Name: xyz
Address: [email protected]
Description: alias
Incoming mail server:
Host name: pop.mail.yahoo.com
User name: [email protected]
Password: password for yahoo account
Server port: 995
Outgoing mail server:
SMTP: smtp.o2.co.uk (o2 is the name of my phone network)
Server port: 25
‘Yahoo!’ account info:
Name: xyz
Address: [email protected]
Password: password for yahoo account
Description: Yahoo!
Outgoing mail server:
Primary server: Yahoo! SMTP server
Server port: 465
I’ve tried using the same settings in my new iPhone5, but it doesn’t work. I can receive mail to both accounts, and can send from the Yahoo account, but I cannot send mail from the alias account. When I try, it displays the message: “Cannot send mail. A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipient ‘[email protected]’ was rejected by the server”.
I’ve tried to configure the POP alias account using combinations of ‘pop.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ and ‘apple.pop.mail.yahoo.com’, for the incoming host, and ‘smtp.o2.co.uk’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com’ and ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the outgoing mail server. None of these have worked.
I’ve also tried setting it up using IMAP instead of POP without success. I tried configuring it using combinations of ‘imap.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘imap.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ and ‘apple.imap.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the incoming mail server and ‘smtp.o2.co.uk’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.com’, ‘smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’, ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com’ and ‘apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk’ for the outgoing mail server.
Yahoo say that if I can't send Yahoo! Mail from my mail program, I may be accessing the Internet through an ISP that is blocking the SMTP port, and that if this is the case, I should try setting the SMTP port number to 587 when sending email via Yahoo!'s SMTP server. I don't think that this is the problem, but I tried it just to make sure - without success.
I’ve also heard that the problem might have something to do with the SPF settings of my alias domain provider. I’m not too sure exactly what SPF settings are, or how to change them, but from what I can gather it seems unlikely that this is the problem given that I was able to send mail from my alias account on my old iPhone3.
Any help much appreciated: how can I get my alias account to send emails in iPhone5 mail?
Many thanks,
Patrick

A new development: I've tried sending emails from the alias several times over the past 24 hours, but in general I've deleted them if they haven't sent within about half an hour.
However, one of the messages I left sitting in the outbox did send successfully in the end, but this took about an hour.
So: perhaps my problem is not in fact that I am completely unable to send mail from my alias, but that I can only do so intermittently and extremely slowly, and by ignoring the "cannot send" message.
Any help appreciated.

Why can I no longer send email from my Hotmail SMTP account using Mail?

I can no longer send email from my Hotmail SMTP account using Mail. The connection doctor says it can't connect to the SMTP server. All the settings look to be correct and it was working fine before. I can still email using my iPhone with the same account.

Other may post it is some type of change with your ISP but the simple fact is this happen with Apple Mac Mail all the time.
IMHO Mac Mail is one of, if not the, worst mail program ever written.
Do yourself a big favor and start using some other mail program, any other Mail program.

Email from Verizon re: recent technical problems

I got an email from Verizon suggesting that I could have solved my recent problem by going online. Hello...if someone other than a robot was sending out those emails, he,she would have realized that my problem was that ALL MY SERVICES WERE OUT...HENCE, NO EMAIL OR INTERNET.
Perhaps you could screen your email replies with a little personal touch? It is very difficult to find a way to contact you other than through the online robot help, which in my experience is useless.
How about some more people to people contact without going through the irritating robot too?

Under myVerizon Account profile I do see this indicator [email protected] [Email validated on 6/19/2012] (this is my primary and no sub accounts). I did change all my passwords ;as I do on a regular basis and I always use strong one. thaknks for your replies

Can I download emails from a web mail account? If so how? thank you?

How can I download emails from a web mail account into Thunderbird please

If the account can be set up with programs like TB, simply add the account, starting from File/New(or AppMenu/New Message)/Existing Mail Account. If TB doesn't detect the right settings, enter them manually according to the account provider's requirements. If the provide offers IMAP access, all of the webmail folders will be downloaded. If POP only is offered, the Inbox will be downloaded.

How do I know if this is a legitimate email from Verizon?

How do I know if this is a legitimate email from Verizon? It looks like a phishing attempt, but the last 4 digits of my account # are correct.
Dear Valued Verizon Customer,
Your services are scheduled to be suspended. To view your suspension letter, sign in to your account at My Verizon. From your Profile, select the View Now button in the My Verizon Notifications section.
You can also View and Pay Your Bill at My Verizon.

Payment Due Date to avoid suspension on or before 02/09/2014

Any time you are unsure of the legitimacy of a notification like that, go directly to the source. Instead of clicking on any links in the email itself, go directly to verizon.com, sign in, and look at your account. Alternatively, you can call Verizon Billing to verify your account status. They have options for getting ahold of them on teh Contact Us link at the bottom of every page.
Remeber, it is *always* safer to go directly to company websites yourself than click on links in questionable emails. If the warning is legitimate, you should get the same information.

You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion. This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it. I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date. It is usually correct, to within a few weeks. A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
I hope this helps.

I would delete the account and try to re-enter it. Also, you have to let your firm's IT department know that you want to sync work email on your personal devices before they actually work.

Received emails from Verizon - Pictures do not show correctly and strange characters appear in text

When I receive emails from Verizon users, embedded images do not display inline. Each image(s) instead is displayed as a empty box with the red X boxed at the upper left. The images are correctly displayed at the very end of the email.
Additionally, dotted capital A's appears frequently within the text as well as other extraneous characters and symbols.
Do I have an incorrect setting in Live Mail (Outlook express displays the same) or is it something Verizon is doing? All of my other emails from different providers display properly.
Thanks in advance for any assistance which might be offered.

I have the same problem rec eiving from a friend who uses verizon. I use aol and even opened it in Internet Exporer and the same thing happened. This is a programing glitch with verizon email. I get the text in the email but the white squares with an x and no image. I have to downlod the images and open it as an attachment. The problem is you look at the image without the text which might be describing the image. Very inconvient. The person sending the emal has to enable the rich text option . I am still looking on how to do it on Verizon email but since I don't have it I am having trouble finding a solution.

Why is this so? I don't have this problem prior to installing the Mountain Lion OS X

Have you tried 10.8.1? It includes fixes in this area. Usually the problem is if Active Directory is returning incorrect Exchange information in response to an Autodiscover request. In 10.8.1 you can manually edit this information.

Changing account settings from G/L account into reconciliation account

Dear all,
Could you please help me solve the following problem:
We've got such settings in productive system so that open items were formed on GL account in spite of the fact that it was not a reconciliation account for creditors.
Is there any way to change the account status from G/L account into reconciliation account, clear existing open items and change account status back to G/L account?

Dear Stanislav Kim
For changing Recon Account :
1.The GL account should be intially blocked for posting.
2 . The program RFSEPA02 FOR SWITCHING ON AND RFSEPA03 FOR SWITCHING OFF open items . This program can be modified with the help of ABAP consultant.
This will convert Recon acct to normal GL account with open items.
I am sure this will resolve your problem.
Deven.

IPhone wont send email from a certain mail account

I know the settings are right, but the iPhone wont send mail from one of my mail accounts (hosted by the company i work for, which offers mail hosting as a service, and has hundreds of other iPhone users with the same account settings.)
The progress bar that indicates "sending" zips by suspiciously quickly when I hit Send, but there is no audio confirmation. Then the email is gone - its not in my Sent Items folder, and its not in the Drafts folder and its not in my broom closet.
From what I understand, if one SMTP server isn't available, it should default to the AT&T SMTP server, but it apparently doesn't even get that far, because the phone must think it's sent the message, or it would end up in the Drafts folder (or Outbox, I can't recall), which is what I would normally experience if I had no service at the time I was sending the message. I have two other accounts that work normally on the iPhone. Nothing has been recently changed with the SMTP server in question, which works fine with all my other devices.
I've tried:
• deleting the account and re-adding it manually (four times)
• deleting the account and syncing it with my computer (three times)
• hard resetting the iPhone
• ensuring that the primary SMTP server for this account is, in fact, switched to "On" in Settings->Mail, Contacts, and Calendars, <mail account>-->SMTP (which brings me to another question: how do I edit this list? Is it automatically populated by the accounts in my Mail app?
• screaming from my back porch
Ideas?
Email Account type: IMAP
Authentication type: MD5 with SSL
Port: 587
8GB 3G iPhone, Software version 2.2.1

One thing that might help.
If your primary server is hosted by your company, double check the outgoing settings.
Host Name:
Use SSL:
Authentication:
Server Port:
If it zips through your primary server without effect, try turning the primary server off and one of the secondary on.
If connected to Edge or 3G, you can use ATT's SMTP server.
If issue still persists, then set up a gmail or yahoo account to test with.
Both are free email services.
If still fails, then general troubleshooting might help.
Here are a couple of articles from the apple support website that might help out.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1737
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
You might need to reset and or restore the iphone to resolve any software issues.
Hope this helps.
