Email Help Please: Enable Send Only?

Is there a way on iOS5 to enable an email account but NOT have it download messages? I want to be able to send messages from a phone, but NOT have it retrieve them from the server. It's much easier to sort, delete and manage email on a computer's email system than it is on a small screen.

Yes of course I've contacted the Premium Mail help number. I've called them many, many times without any success at all and since I've been calling from abroad it's cost me a fortune to get nowhere.
These forums are for the BT Community. I'm part of the community since I still have BT services. This isn't a Broadband forum. As I've indicated though, I've been with BT for over 35 years so I think that entitles me to some sort of service - even from here if possible.
There is no issue with my account according to the BT staff. This has been checked and all is fine. The issue is that they are refusing to acknowledge that there is a problem although there clearly is one.
However.... your statement:
It also possible that you are being stopped from using BTs SMTP server, because you are not actually connected to BT Broadband. You would therfore be restriced to using webmail only.
... is new to me. No-one has told me that.
One has to then beg the question: "If you can only use so-called Premium Mail via the web then why are BT not telling people that?" No-one seems to know - even you Keith, say that "it is also possible...."
If this actually IS the reason then I could have been told that from the beginning.
Unfortunately, error 421 is one of the more "unspecific" codes generated by mail servers. This error can mean many things. It can show misconfiguration but it doesn't show up as a security lockdown - even though it could be. What I can't understand is why no-one actually knows. No-one can explain absolutely and that's what is really annoying here.
No-one will take responsibility and no-one is willing to even try to help me out here - that's what is really bad.
Keith, you've come up with something which makes sense that may well explain the issue - but the question is really: "What can I do about it?".
Nothing? I just have to put up with it? Great customer care....

Help Please - iPhone crashed - only showing Apple logo

Hi
Apple support is closed so I was wondering if anyone here can help me.
I downloaded a new App and during install my iPhone seemed to freeze.
I held the power button and it powered off and when I powered it back on again it gets as far as the apple logo and never any further regardless of how long i leave it.
I have also tried reseting by holding down Power button and Menu button but with the same results.
Attaching to my computer and firing up iTunes only results in an iTunes freeze.
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Robin

You will need to do a restore.
from another post,
1. Open iTunes
2. Coonect iPhone to Mac or PC.
3. hold both Sleep/Wake and home button for 10 seconds.
4. The screen will go blank and the instant ir does RELEASE Sleep/Wake and CONTINUE to hold the Home button for 20 seconds.
5. iTunes will then see the device as in "An iPhone in Recvovery mode".
6. You may proceed with the restore of the iPhone.
Note: iTunes may not see it instantly, just continue to hold the home button until it does. If it still doesn't work start the entire process again until it works. Every iPhone and IPod Touch can enter DFU Restore mode regarless of tis state (since this does not require the OS to boot).
What you will see on the iphone to indicate it is ready to restore is a cahnbe from the apple lot to a cable wanting to be installed. Then you can restore.
once I got that I clicked restore and it will go through its paces. It may take quite some time so be patient.

Can't send emails help please!

I have an IMac G5 running 10.5.8. I was having a problem with some emails not deleting. I would click delete and they would gray out but would not go to trash, if I would go to another address and come back, they would be in the black again! I did some research and the "Rebuild" was suggested, so I tried it and WHALA the emails were finally gone. Now I can receive emails without a problem, but I can't send any! I have 4 email accounts and all of them will not send out anything! I have a gmail account, 3 road runner accounts and an account from my website and none of them will send out anything! I have checked my settings and nothing has changed, the only thing that I have done is the rebuild! I hope I have given you enough information!
Hopefully someone can help!

Did you check the outgoing mail server setting? Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Hello,
maybe you can first check if you can "simply" send an email with users SYS, SYSTEM (, SCOTT, ...)...
Users must be allowed to send emails via "ACS", managed by dbms_network_acl_admin. It might be (I've no idea) that even SYS cannot send an email if ACL has not been explicitly configured
Best regards,
Bruno Vroman.

Setting up an email account to for send only purposes?

I utilize hotmail and since there's no password protections on an iPad for email, I don't want it to download my email. I just want it to use it to 'send' purposes only. For example, when I want to send a picture to friends when in the photo app etc. I use the email app for my work email, but I don't want personal emails coming from my work email.
Is there a way to do this so it doesn't download my hotmail emails?
Thanks!
Khrista

HT3228 Email help please

I have set my Outlook 2007 email program to only remove emails from server when deleted from "deleted items" on all my devices.....yet this box seems to uncheck itself on a daily basis. Any advice?
In addition.....
What is the best method to "sync" all my email activity for one particular email address? For example, if I delete an email on one device it would be nice if it was automatically deleted from the other devices too.
TIA for any help you can give. It's pretty obvious that I'm no IT whiz.

What you are asking for is not possible with a POP3 account. This is a very old protocol designed when no one could envision ever having more than one email client on an email account. I'm not an expert on Outlook, but its likely that Outlook "knows" this limitation of the POP3 protocol and unchecks the box because there is no way to implement it.
You need to change the account type to IMAP if your ISP supports it, or use some workaround using iCloud or gmail (both of which support what you want to do).

AOL EMAIL HELP PLEASE

I know all the reasons to get rid of AOL but I have had it for so long, it is impossible for me to leave it. I have a Palm Pre for years and my son bought me an Ipad2 for my birthday and I was hooked on Apple. Now I bought myself the Iphone 4 and put my AOL account on it but it will not give me instant emails like the Pre does. I called Apple and AOL and neither can help me. Is there any solution to allow me to get instant emails from AOL on the iphone 4? I get AOL emails (which does not support Push) instantly on the Pre without any delay, but the Iphone 4 sends them about 20 minutes after they are sent. The Pre has no waiting whatsoever, giving me the emails within seconds of them being sent, which is most important to me for my business. Thank you for any help!!

Thank you for the fast reply. I tried it and it did not change the timing of the email. I even mimicked the exact setting in the Pre and no change.

Help Please ( Speaker Problem Only Playing Through Right)

Can someone help me please, recently my speakers have only been playing through the right speaker, i have tryed headphones and the problem still occurs and no sound is coming out of the left speaker, i have checked all the sound settings and they are all correct.

Greetings,
When you turn your Mac on with either the headphones or the speakers plugged in, do you hear the startup chime "BONG!" only through one side?
Reset the SMC and then test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Reset the PRAM and then test: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html
If the issue persists at this point and those headphones work fine on another device (like an iPod) then you have a hardware issue and need service:
-- Contact a local Apple Authorized Service Provider: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
or
-- Book an appointment at an Apple Retail Store: http://www.apple.com/retail/
or

Hope that helps.

Preordering problems - haven't recieved the email - help please!

I preordered Panic at the Disco's new album 'Pretty. Odd.' over a week ago, and when I did it said that the album was due out today.
Users have already bought and reviewed the album on iTunes yet I still haven't been able to download my pre order. I haven't recieved any emails about it and I have checked multiple times through the 'Store > Check for Purchases' menu. It seems that the album was released this Saturday (21st) instead.
When I go to 'View Account > Manage Preorders' the order is there, but the 'expected release date' is in red...does this have any significance? When I click on the title of the CD it says that it is 'not currently available in the UK Store' - but I preordered it in the UK store!
As I have not been billed for it yet (as far as I know) I can purchase it, but I would prefer not to as there are specific pre order only privelages.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

What you see in your settings seems normal to me. I haven't received an email either.
And I have the problem here with R.E.M. 'Accelerate', due today, and already on regular sale, but preorder customers haven't been served yet. At another occasion this has annoyed me so much that I cacelled the order in account settings and bought the album in question right after that.
I think Apple should change that if possible, so that preorder customers (usually the diehards anyway) get their purchase at least at the same time as regular shoppers.

E90 - outlook email: HELP please

Hello everyone,
I am seriously considering buying the E90. It seems a good option as I need excel, powerpoint, good browser and email.
I am not very techy, so my question may sound simple/stupid, but if anyone can help me with it I'd really appreciate it, as it is absolutely key to my decision:
- I have a windows XP laptop, and my professional emails are on outlook. Will I be able to download my outlook inbox (emails) onto the E90? My purpose is to answer emails from the E90, while travelling, eg on the phone.
Thanks for the help!

I bought E90 without checking this, expecting it would be syncing emails since it is the new version of communicator. Was living fine with old 9500 , but small and GPS powered E90 was attractive.Although it is a small disappoinment , have a "better than nothing" solution.
Add a small piece of code to your outlook in order to create a task for each arriving mail , including subject and body, and if you wish to "sync" sent mails do it for the sent mails as well.
Then you have to just sync your tasks , and you will have all your mails there.
You dont want to mess with your real tasks , create a new folder in outlook and do the same for this new folder, but you have to manually change folder info in PcSuite and sync twice.
Since I am not using tasks, it is working fine for me.
As I said , it is better than nothing.
Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim myitem As Outlook.TaskItem
Set myitem = Outlook.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
myitem.Subject = "[Sent]" & Item.Subject
myitem.StartDate = Now
myitem.DueDate = DateAdd("d", 2, Now)
myitem.Body = "You have sent this mail on : " + Str(Now) + vbCrLf
myitem.Body = myitem.Body + "You have sent this mail to : " + Item.To + vbCrLf
myitem.Body = myitem.Body + String(50, "-") + vbCrLf
myitem.Body = myitem.Body + Item.Body
myitem.ReminderTime = Format(DateAdd("d", 2, Now), "DD/MM/YYYY 14:00:00")
myitem.Importance = Item.Importance
myitem.Save
myitem.Close (olSave)
Set myitem = Nothing
End Sub
Private Sub Application_NewMailEx(ByVal EntryIDCollection As String)
Dim Item As Outlook.MailItem
Set Item = Application.Session.GetItemFromID(EntryIDCollection)
Dim myitem As Outlook.TaskItem
Set myitem = Outlook.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
myitem.Subject = Item.SenderEmailAddress & "," & Item.Subject
myitem.StartDate = Now
myitem.DueDate = DateAdd("d", 2, Now)
myitem.Body = Item.Body
myitem.ReminderTime = Format(DateAdd("d", 2, Now), "DD/MM/YYYY 14:00:00")
myitem.Importance = Item.Importance
myitem.Save
myitem.Close (olSave)
Set myitem = Nothing

Help please, I can only see outlines when I use the shape tool in CS5 ?

When I open action script 2 or 3 in CS5, and draw a rectangle or any shape, I can only see outlines? The problem IS NOT the outlines button that is in the layers palet as I have changed this many times and it has mad no difference and the problem IS NOT because I have selected no fill or colour for the shape.
If you want to see a screenshot of my computer follow this link as I have exactly the same problem http://forums.adobe.com/message/2927153
BUT interestingly, when I have opened someone elses .fla work document, I can draw and fill shapes without a problem, which makes me wonder whether I am missing some basis setting when I start with my own new document ??
Any help would be much appreciated. I am fairly conversant with Photoshop but a newbie in Flash

I've learned something new since that posting you point to that might help--it has the same effect as using the outline tool on the layer, but globally. In the main menu select View -> Preview Mode -> and anything except Outlines.

Help please - phone icon only found in spotlight - how do i get it back!

OK - so ,,,,I was moving my apps around to try get them organised and as i normally do i moved the 4 main apps off the bottom bar onto a page so i could then move icons onto the bottom bar to quickly move them to the new pages.... are you following me!
Well I then started moving apps around all over the place but when i went to look for my 4 apps (phone, ipd, safari and mail) on a screen i couldn't find them anywhere. They can be found in spotlight but my question is.....how do i get the app icons back onto a screen!
Please someone help

If you have more than 180 apps, they won't all show on the screens. Try this:
Start by resetting the home screen layout: Choose Settings -> General -> Reset and tap Reset Home Screen Layout. That will put the original icons back in their original positions. The rest you have to move manually.
To get an icon to another page easily, with iPhone OS 3.0, you can drag the icon you want to move to the top right or top left corner of the page, and hold it there. The pages will keep flipping. When you've arrived to the page you want to add the app to, just move the icon away from the corner.
