Email not being delivered
I am trying to send email from the icloud web mail. all email is not being delivered. When I send from iphone or ipad all works fine. Icloud webmail can receive mail normally. Email does show up in the sent mail folder but is not being delivered.
I repeatedly and randomly have the same problem:
1. I send mail to another icloud user or to some other recipient (e.g., yahoo mail).
2. The sent message appears in my iCloud.com Sent folder signifying that it was transmitted successfully.
3. The message is never delivered.
4. It does not appear in the recipient's Spam folder (or any other filter).
5. I never receive followup email from any server's postmaster indicating an error in transmission or reception.
6. The whole experience is purely silent -- "went to the bit bucket."
There is no rhyme or reason to this. The phenomenon is random but has repeated over a series of many months. I could say that I am running 10.8.5, but it is an iCloud server event, not a local OS event. The recipient might be running OS X, Linux, or Windows (etc).

Sent emails not being delivered from Outlook
For the past week emails sent from Outlook although appearing in my Sent mailbox are not being delivered. This is not a problem where emails are sent from my iphone. I have made no settings changes. This seems to be a familiar problem but research has not produced a solution as most people give up.
I am using a Windows 8 laptop with Outlook 2013. I have set up numerous new accounts with automated settings with no success.
Please help!!I too knowingly have had this problem since at least 19/1/2015.
I have Windows 7 with Outlook 2013 and two BT accounts plus Sky and Google accounts (for fallback). All have functioned well for the past three years.
No changes to my PC have been made for at least 6 months (apart from MS updates).
My wife's laptop runs Windows 7 with Outlook 2010 and has found the same issue. At a Womens Instutute meeting last night in the village it became apparent (without my wife initiating the issue) that a number of other BT eMail account customers have the same problem too.
I spent about an hour yesterday trying various combinations of operation to confirm the issues. I have found:
1 - eMails sent from either BT account self addressed will bounce back the eMails (presumably from the BT Server)
2 - eMails sent from either BT account to BT accounts will not forward (send/deliver)
3 - eMails sent from either BT account to non BT addresses will not forward (but will bounce back if the self address is included in the addresses showing that at least the eMail is reaching the BT mail server).
4 - eMails sent from Outlook through Sky and Google systems are being received by the BT system and recieved into the Outlook BT accounts.
5 - All eMails sent in Outlook appear in the Sent box
6 - eMails sent from Webmail accounts all work normally
All these tests can be replicated on my wife's laptop with other BT and non-BT addresses.
I then spent about an hour whilst a BT Technician (ABHISHEK SEN) through CHAT accessed my PC, checked all settings and declared no fault found.
Later I spent another hour on the phone to the BT Help Desk (with VIKRAM) who did much of the same, declared that there was a problem and that I would have to hire a local PC expert technician to come and sort out the problem on my PC. He would not acknowledge that there just might be a problem with the BT eMail Server system.
Finally the only common thread is that the BT accounts are sub-accounts of my main account and that I pay the bills - and of course the router and copper lines to the exchange.
HOW OR WHERE DO I/WE RAISE THIS ISSUE WITH A HIGHER AUTHORITY TO GET IT RESOLVED?
Oh! And then there is the rest of the village and gwood's machine also need to have their similar issue resolved too.
To use gwood's last paragraph: PLEASE HELP!! -
After 1.1.1 update, image emails not being delivered
just upgraded to the latest patch (1.1.1). Sending images) as email are not being delivered. I am using Yahoo for email. Anyone else see this?
I've just switched SIM cards with someone else who is on P&G o2 and has an IPhone 5 running 6.1.2. My sim in their phone still won't send texts to the problem number yet their sim in my phone will? Think it might be a network issue?

HT4061 Emails not being delivered via mac mail - recipients claim not receiving
A colleague and I have discovered over last 2 weeks issues with mac mail.
Emails are not being received - but it appears to be RANDOM.
We both use mac mail and have .me accounts.
He sent a group email that I never received until 3 days later when another colleague NOT on mac mail replied to all and I saw that I never received original note.
This colleague sent email to his attorney weeks ago -- and it was just delivered to his attorney's inbox YESTERDAY.
The colleague has also send me a several SENSITIVE correspondences that he confirmed via phone last night that I have still NOT received.
What is going on? is is a mac mail issue or an iCloud issue?
Need some help to get this reported and resolved.
thank you!bingo123 wrote:

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
For info, CP (Critical Path) has been in use for a few months now for the conversion from using Yahoo! mail servers.
What version of Outlook are you using ?
In the smtp setting, try removing @btinternet.com or @btopenworld.com from the username - despite what the online help might say.
You might like to try port 25, with No security or SSL/TLS setting.
Is it all emails that are failing to send ?
If emails have been fine for years, do you know what the previous settings were ?
As for disabling firewalls - this doesn't always help - as they can still block emails! What security package are you using, and have you checked the settings within that package ?
Sorry for the extra questions.

Verizon emails not being delivered
I know this isnt really an OS X issue, but i'm kinda stumped. Our mail queue is filled with emails to verizon.net emails. Getting the error "450: requested mail action not taken-Try Later"
I cant find any information anywhere. I have filled out the Verizon White Pages twice now... Once over 2 weeks ago. (found here - http://www2.verizon.net/micro/whitelist/request_form.asp?id=isp) and still nothing. Queue is filled with 30 Verizon emails now. I dont know if they are getting delivered or not, or if OS X is dumping them from the mail queue after X amount of days. (if so, users are not getting notified about it)
What the... DId we end up on some block list or if Verizon is just being ultra aggressive with spam blocking or what... If anyone has any insight, please let me know. I'm banging my head against the wall!
Thanks all!I'd like to know what the postfix delay is as well. I
found this (http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html)
but there are so many diffferent delays listed, I
have no idea which is the correct one.
Anyone have any insight to this??
and...
Well, that article and others are quite helpful in
identifying the situation which seems to be that
Verizon connects to the server at the MX record of
the sender with a blank Mail From and a RCPT TO of
the original sender.
However, I can't fathom why my server would reject
that. I even have an SPF record. Could it be the
timeout?
What is postfix's timeout?
I think the discussion moved on from suspecting this, but just for completeness on the postfix command and timeout...
The receiving server is probably using the rejectunverifiedsender option (tries a RCPT TO using the senders From: address)
http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESSVERIFICATIONREADME.html
In postfix, the timeout for a RCPT TO command is set by the smtprcpttimeout option with a default of 5 minutes. It is not very clear from the postfix doc whether that still applies when carried out within the rejectunverifiedsender option, but (from my understanding at this time) I would guess so.
Although there is nothing to stop a busy server from having its default timeout reduced, (since verification of spoofed mail may be quite demanding), postfix does cache results - thereby being most efficient on large volume servers. Taking this into account, a reduction in the timeout value, on large volume servers, would have a relatively small benefit in terms of the overall processing going on.

IMessage verification email not being delivered.
I am trying to add another email address to my list of receiving iMessage email addresses and I can never receive the verification email Apple is supposed to send me to make that address active. I have tried numerous times and even look in the spam folder every time. I've seen other people post this same problem also. Hard to believe this is still an issue for a company with Apple's resources.
I repeatedly and randomly have the same problem:
1. I send mail to another icloud user or to some other recipient (e.g., yahoo mail).
2. The sent message appears in my iCloud.com Sent folder signifying that it was transmitted successfully.
3. The message is never delivered.
4. It does not appear in the recipient's Spam folder (or any other filter).
5. I never receive followup email from any server's postmaster indicating an error in transmission or reception.

Sent emails not being delivered from Outlook via S...
Hi, is anyone else having issues with sent items via Outlook?
My settings have been working fine for years and the Outlook account check does not show any issues, yet when I send emails they are not delivered. They're not in my Outbox and they go to sent items.
I've tried reconfiguring for SSL, disabling all firewalls/HIPS/protection all to no avail.
It's really annoying especially at this time of year - but tech support say they do not support Outlook and emails sent from the web client work OK.
It can connect to mail.btinternet.com over port 25 and if i couldn't would get an error message in outlook so can only assume they are knocking around somewhere in the BT infrastructure.
Would be useful if a track on emails was available...
Any feedback on similar issues or advice would be gratefully received!
Thanks
Solved!

Combination force quit requirement and emails not being delivered problem
I'm actually having a few problems simultaneously today:
1. Mail needs to be force quit. - Someone in another post mentioned that he used a Mail Envelope Index reset to solve that problem, so if someone else knows what that is, how to do it, please tell me.
2. One of my mail accounts hasn't downloaded to Mail since 10:49 am this morning, but keeps downloading the same message, which is a mail undeliverable message. At 10:48 am I sent a single message to 8 addresses. One of the 8 was a bad address on comcast, and I keep getting a message delivered over and over again with a time of 10:49 am showing that it was undeliverable. In fact, even if I delete the ones I received, they come back again plus a new undelivered one each time I restart Mail. No other mail has come down on that account since 10:49 am. My ISP says that all looks fine on the server, although I see other messages listed there when I look using Safari that I don't see in my Apple Mail inbox. The ISP is resetting the server account between now and 2 a.m., but I'm sure that's not the problem, and that something related to that undeliverable mail message that I keep getting is blocking the rest of the mail from coming down or showing. Anything I can try while I'm waiting for their reset of my server account to finish?I spoke too soon. There is still one problem, that I see someone else also posted back a few weeks ago. I continue to get many Mail Delivery System messages in my inbox, all dated back at the point where my mail problem started, yesterday at 10:49 a.m. I delete them, empty the deleted messages, ,but they just keep showing up, the whole group plus new ones. I know that there was a Windows virus that did this, could there be a Mac one? If not, does anyone else have a clue how to stop this? The other guy who posted this problem also had the mail refusing to quit issue that I had before, so they are probably related.

Text send to email address not being delivered
Can anyone tell me why texts sent from my iphone 4 to my home email address are not being delivered? I like to send reminders of things I need to do from my phone to my email address. Have always been able to do this from other phones I've had but not now with this iphone 4. It saying they were sent but they never show up in my inbox or any other box.

If my reply is being sent as an SMS, what is to prevent the new message from being sent as an SMS?
What prevents the new message being sent as an SMS is that your actually sending an email -- not an SMS, when you initiate a [email protected], that is an email, not an SMS.

Nope, you don't have the data plan. Sorta like refusing to install a trailer hitch on your truck, and then wondering why you can't pull a trailer behind.

All, Im stumped. In fact I have been on the phone with Apple Support and this has been escalated to the top engineers, as I think its got them too..
Anyway, here is my problem..
I'm running an Mac Mini with OS X 10.7.4 Server. I have had mail running on it for 2 months or so, without any issues. The mail was actually migrated from 10.6 in March, and It actually went smoothly. I have 3 domains which all recieve mail and they all work (or did up until 2 weeks ago)..
So the story is this.. I can send mail from my domains, without issue. imap and dovecot must be working.. cause all the stored mail, can be read with the mail IMAP client.. I can even transfer mail messages from one mailbox to another with Mail client. Sending mail is a breeze, it still works and the recipients still recieve their mail. But I noticed I wasnt getting any mail at all from those mailboxes... no mail, no spam, nothing.. which is unusal. I fired up Server admin and checked out the SMTP log, and this is what it showed for every email recieved: (xxxxxx is just me hiding sensitive info)

Ok, now what is odd, is these rejected messages are not even appearing in the mail queue in Server Admin. I have no idea why there are not being delivered
Ive checked my postfix main.cf file and master.cf files they both look ok.. Ive even replaced them with the main.cf.defualt.10.7 and master.cf.default.10.7 files and to no avail... same problem..
So in summary
I can send mail out
IMAP is working on the client end (thus dovecot is) exsisting stored emails can be accessed, read, moved unread etc..
mail is coming into the sever, but its being rejected. there is NO rejection email sent back to the sender.
mail is recieved by postfix, but cyrus isnt doing anything with it.. I have no idea where it goes...
Could anyone shed light on this...

# REJECTING MAIL FOR UNKNOWN LOCAL USERS
# The local_recipient_maps parameter specifies optional lookup tables
# with all names or addresses of users that are local with respect
# to $mydestination, $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces.
# If this parameter is defined, then the SMTP server will reject
# mail for unknown local users. This parameter is defined by default.
# To turn off local recipient checking in the SMTP server, specify
# local_recipient_maps = (i.e. empty).
# The default setting assumes that you use the default Postfix local
# delivery agent for local delivery. You need to update the
# local_recipient_maps setting if:
# - You define $mydestination domain recipients in files other than
# /etc/passwd, /etc/aliases, or the $virtual_alias_maps files.
# For example, you define $mydestination domain recipients in
# the $virtual_mailbox_maps files.
# - You redefine the local delivery agent in master.cf.
# - You redefine the "local_transport" setting in main.cf.
# - You use the "luser_relay", "mailbox_transport", or "fallback_transport"
# feature of the Postfix local delivery agent (see local(8)).
# Details are described in the LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README file.
# Beware: if the Postfix SMTP server runs chrooted, you probably have
# to access the passwd file via the proxymap service, in order to
# overcome chroot restrictions. The alternative, having a copy of
# the system passwd file in the chroot jail is just not practical.
# The right-hand side of the lookup tables is conveniently ignored.
# In the left-hand side, specify a bare username, an @domain.tld
# wild-card, or specify a [email protected] address.

# TRUST AND RELAY CONTROL
# The mynetworks parameter specifies the list of "trusted" SMTP

# In particular, "trusted" SMTP clients are allowed to relay mail
# through Postfix. See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions parameter
# in postconf(5).
# You can specify the list of "trusted" network addresses by hand
# or you can let Postfix do it for you (which is the default).
# By default (mynetworks_style = subnet), Postfix "trusts" SMTP
# clients in the same IP subnetworks as the local machine.
# On Linux, this does works correctly only with interfaces specified
# with the "ifconfig" command.
# Specify "mynetworks_style = class" when Postfix should "trust" SMTP
# clients in the same IP class A/B/C networks as the local machine.
# Don't do this with a dialup site - it would cause Postfix to "trust"
# your entire provider's network. Instead, specify an explicit
# mynetworks list by hand, as described below.
# Specify "mynetworks_style = host" when Postfix should "trust"
# only the local machine.
#mynetworks_style = class
#mynetworks_style = subnet
#mynetworks_style = host
# Alternatively, you can specify the mynetworks list by hand, in
# which case Postfix ignores the mynetworks_style setting.
# Specify an explicit list of network/netmask patterns, where the
# mask specifies the number of bits in the network part of a host
# address.
# You can also specify the absolute pathname of a pattern file instead
# of listing the patterns here. Specify type:table for table-based lookups
# (the value on the table right-hand side is not used).

# The relay_domains parameter restricts what destinations this system will
# relay mail to. See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions description in
# postconf(5) for detailed information.
# By default, Postfix relays mail
# - from "trusted" clients (IP address matches $mynetworks) to any destination,
# - from "untrusted" clients to destinations that match $relay_domains or
# subdomains thereof, except addresses with sender-specified routing.
# The default relay_domains value is $mydestination.
# In addition to the above, the Postfix SMTP server by default accepts mail
# that Postfix is final destination for:
# - destinations that match $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces,
# - destinations that match $mydestination
# - destinations that match $virtual_alias_domains,
# - destinations that match $virtual_mailbox_domains.
# These destinations do not need to be listed in $relay_domains.
# Specify a list of hosts or domains, /file/name patterns or type:name
# lookup tables, separated by commas and/or whitespace. Continue
# long lines by starting the next line with whitespace. A file name
# is replaced by its contents; a type:name table is matched when a
# (parent) domain appears as lookup key.
# NOTE: Postfix will not automatically forward mail for domains that
# list this system as their primary or backup MX host. See the
# permit_mx_backup restriction description in postconf(5).
#relay_domains = $mydestination
# INTERNET OR INTRANET
# The relayhost parameter specifies the default host to send mail to
# when no entry is matched in the optional transport(5) table. When
# no relayhost is given, mail is routed directly to the destination.
# On an intranet, specify the organizational domain name. If your
# internal DNS uses no MX records, specify the name of the intranet
# gateway host instead.
# In the case of SMTP, specify a domain, host, host:port, [host]:port,
# [address] or [address]:port; the form [host] turns off MX lookups.
# If you're connected via UUCP, see also the default_transport parameter.

# REJECTING UNKNOWN RELAY USERS
# The relay_recipient_maps parameter specifies optional lookup tables
# with all addresses in the domains that match $relay_domains.
# If this parameter is defined, then the SMTP server will reject
# mail for unknown relay users. This feature is off by default.
# The right-hand side of the lookup tables is conveniently ignored.
# In the left-hand side, specify an @domain.tld wild-card, or specify
# a [email protected] address.

# INPUT RATE CONTROL
# The in_flow_delay configuration parameter implements mail input
# flow control. This feature is turned on by default, although it
# still needs further development (it's disabled on SCO UNIX due
# to an SCO bug).
# A Postfix process will pause for $in_flow_delay seconds before
# accepting a new message, when the message arrival rate exceeds the
# message delivery rate. With the default 100 SMTP server process
# limit, this limits the mail inflow to 100 messages a second more
# than the number of messages delivered per second.
# Specify 0 to disable the feature. Valid delays are 0..10.

# ALIAS DATABASE
# The alias_maps parameter specifies the list of alias databases used

# On systems with NIS, the default is to search the local alias
# database, then the NIS alias database. See aliases(5) for syntax
# details.
# If you change the alias database, run "postalias /etc/aliases" (or
# wherever your system stores the mail alias file), or simply run
# "newaliases" to build the necessary DBM or DB file.
# It will take a minute or so before changes become visible. Use
# "postfix reload" to eliminate the delay.
#alias_maps = dbm:/etc/aliases
#alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
#alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, nis:mail.aliases
#alias_maps = netinfo:/aliases
# The alias_database parameter specifies the alias database(s) that
# are built with "newaliases" or "sendmail -bi". This is a separate
# configuration parameter, because alias_maps (see above) may specify
# tables that are not necessarily all under control by Postfix.
#alias_database = dbm:/etc/aliases
#alias_database = dbm:/etc/mail/aliases
#alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
#alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/opt/majordomo/aliases
# ADDRESS EXTENSIONS (e.g., user+foo)
# The recipient_delimiter parameter specifies the separator between
# user names and address extensions (user+foo). See canonical(5),
# local(8), relocated(5) and virtual(5Ok 1st one. The warning restriction message relates to this line in main.cf:
smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated permit_mynetworks check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_access reject_non_fqdn_hostname reject_invalid_hostname permit reject_invalid_helo_hostname
The last reject occurs after the single word "permit" and is ignored.
However, that's not the problem.
I'm not exactly sure what's happening, but this might be a clue.
It would appear that either postfix is not being able to create the socket for private/policy or it's somehow created with the wrong permissions. You might need to ramp up the debug level to get a better idea.
You could check if it's being created by "netstat -a | grep private/policy" in terminal.
My guess is that it's not being created because there is no setup statement in your master.cf file, but I don't understand why postfix would be looking for it if it isn't set up. Private/policy I think relates to grey listing. Maybe gives you a hint. -
Messages in queue not being delivered
Hi
I am using IMS 5.2. After a recent migration of user accounts to an new login ID, some user's emails are not being delivered to thier accounts and are accumulating in the ims-ms queue. When I did the migration, I copied the user's email to thier new account. I did reconstruct -f -r a couple of times, and emails appeared to be delivered to the new login accounts.
There were a few emails left in the queue but now there are close to 6000 and users are not getting emails delivered. When I look at the message in the queue, they state the user is overquota. I checked the user's account and they are not overquota.
Any suggestions on how to correct the problem or get the message to be delivered?
Thanks

SunOS cpmail 5.8 Generic_108528-27 sun4u sparc
SUNW,Ultra-60
This is the original release. There have been over thirty patch/hotfix releases, and hundreds of fixes. I URGE you to go to Sun's download site, and get 5.2p2, and install it immediately.Thanks for the advice Jay. The product is installed as part of the portal we are using(which I upgraded last June). I was unaware of the versioning and patches that are associated with the version of IMS that was installed. I will move forward with confirming with our portal vendor that the latest sp and patches will support the integrated IMS.

How did you "migrate" your users to new login id?When you "copied" the files, did you re-set
ownership/permisions of the files?
I used the following process in a script to migrate
the users from old login to new login:
1. created the new login mailbox with mboxutil -c
2. moved new mailbox to different partitions
There is a utility/command that does all of this for you.
mboxutil -r
When you "moved" the mailbox, I assume you use unix cp, right? Bad Idea.
current versions of mboxutil do this all for you, and don't need reconstruct afterwards.
I suspect that you have either not properly "moved" your user in LDAP, folder database, or have gotten file ownership or permissions wrong after the move.
Unix files are owned by a user and group, and have various read/write permissions set by the OS. YOu're on a Unix system, so you should know about such.I tried using the mboxutil -r initially but was getting a lot of errors with it in my test environment. In hindsight, I am thinking this had to do with the version of IMS I have installed. The unix file move was done with the IMS admin so would also own all the the messages etc on the OS side. I have obviously made a mess of things! So again, I will put in a support call to our portal vendor about how to proceed on this. I really appreciate your input into this.
3. retrieved hashed directory information for old and
new mailbox for user
4. copied files from old to new mailbox with cp -R
oldmailbox/* newmailbox/
5. after all users were migrated, I did a reconstruct
-f -r, and a reconstruct -f -m
I am not sure what you mean by re-set
ownership/permissions.
Have you looked at the "default" log for an errormessage?
I found the following errors in the default log:
default.60.1093908097:[31/Aug/2004:04:15:01 -0600]
cpmail stored[28697]: Store Critical: Error checking
mailbox database: Ignoring log file:
/usr/iplanet/ims52/msg-cpmail/store/mboxlist/log.00000
00543: magic number 0, not 40988
default.62.1094084554:[02/Sep/2004:04:15:02 -0600]

mailbox database: Ignoring log file:
/usr/iplanet/ims52/msg-cpmail/store/mboxlist/log.00000
00543: magic number 0, not 40988
Your reconstruct command may have been wrong, too. That's what the errors are telling you.
Also, there are other problems in your system. Permission problems, most likely.
I would do a reconstruct -m, first. and see if the above goes away.I will proceed with what you suggested, and let you know the results. Again, thank you very much for your time and input for this.
>>
>>
AS well, when I do a mboxutil -u on an affected user,
the quota information says the user is well under
quota. For example:
$ mboxutil -u xxxxxxxxx
diskquota size(K) %use msgquota msgs %use user
25600 2604 10% no quota 19
19 xxxxxxxxxxx
The error message doesn't really have anything todo with quota.>>
>>
In imta/queue/ims-ms, the user has 183 messages
waiting to be delivered. All of the messages say the
user is over quota.
Any suggestions?
Randy, you need to re-think how you're moving users. You have somewhat messed up your mailstore. . . I will in re-think things. In fact, I have a number of users to migrate. I will stop what I am doing and get this right before I proceed! There is no sense compounding the problem when there is a better alternative. One thing for sure, I will continue using this forum before I proceed with messing with a production system!
You may need to contact tech support for the immediate help you will need to straighten this all out.>>

RandyThanks Jay.

For No. 2, I m seeing that the DNS name is not resolving. How can I be sure this issue is not from my side ?
For No. 3, It seems to be some problem from that domain itself, and even mails from outlook.com are being rejected.
Is there any best practice that I am missing out on ?
How can these issues be resolved ?MX record of ju.ahg.com.sa seems to work via SMTP testing.
