Email sending from non-default account

I have an iPhone4 running 4.3.1. I have two email accounts set up - a Yahoo (POP) account and a GMail (IMAP) account. The Yahoo account is set as default but I have just discovered that when I send a new email it is being sent from the GMail account, not from the default account. Iam fairly sure taht this has only started happening recently. Has anyone any idea what is causing this please?

I've solved this one! I had a new phone a week ago and restored it from iTunes. After the restore it is necessary to re-enter passwords and I forgot about the password in the SMTP definition for the default (yahoo) account. The non-default (Gmail) account didn't have a password in the SMTP definition so the iPhone cleverly decided if it couldn't send from the default account, it would send from the other one!

  • Compose from non default account

    I have 2 email accounts, a corp account and an internet account. When I review emails in the internet account and then compose an email, the blackberry now populates the send using field with the default corporate account. That's new behavior of the BIS according to my ATT support contact. I can't go back to the previous behavior where it just populated the send using field with whatever account I was reading at the time. Anyone know of a workaround? It's a pain to change the send using field every time I write an email from my internet account.
    Thanks,

    ok, believe what you want. I'm not being rude but i can't help you with what you won't accept as a standard function. It's not OS6. I can have a friend much more edumacated in BES to look over this thread. I don't think I'm wrong here, but it certainly won't be the first time.

  • Mail only being sent from NON-default account

    I have two email accounts set up on my iPhone. One is a POP account - work email hosted by Earthlink; the second is a personal email account on Gmail. For months I've been able to send email from either account. The POP/work email account is designated as the 'Default' account.
    Recently though, when I am in my POP/work email account and I reply to a recently received email in that account, I am able to reply to the email but the recipient receives my reply from my Gmail/personal email account. Again, this a reply I've sent while in my POP/work email account, AND my POP/work email account is even set as the 'Default' email account. Yet, replies are being sent from my Gmail/personal email account.
    The same thing happens when I draft new emails (not replying to message from someone else) - when I draft them from my POP/work account, they are received by intended recipient but show that they came from my Gmail/personal account and therefore all replies to my emails are sent to my Gmail/personal account.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    You are undisputedly THE Man/Woman! Essentially you solved it for me. Following your tip, I checked the SMTP settings of my work email account on my iPhone and somehow (don't know how) they had gotten deleted. In turn, somehow, that was having all mail go through the remaining functioning out-bound mail on my iPhone which was through my Gmail account. In some ways that is weird, but not a bad resilient capability by the iPhone to still send the mail using the other email account info.
    Thanks again. I really appreciate you taking the time to post your thoughts. And I REALLY appreciate you being correct!
    Best,
    Tom

  • When I email myself a picture from my iphone 4s, the email is sent from an email account that I don't have set up as the default account. How can I set it up so that the emails are coming from the default account selected in Mail?

    Under my mail tab, it shows that I have a specific email account set up as a default account. That is the account I would like for me emails to be sent from. But when I actually send out an email such as a picture, it is being sent from one of my different email accounts that is not set up as the default. How can I change this so that future messages will be sent from the default account? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!!

    All photo attachments received or sent with the iPhone's Mail app appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when viewed with the iPhone's Mail app which is the same with the Mail.app on a Mac. A photo attachment that appears inline or viewed in place does not mean the photo was not sent as a true attachment to the message. A photo attached to a message with the iPhone's Mail app is sent as a true attachment to the message. How an inline or viewed in place attachment appears on the recipient's end depends on the recipient's email client. If the recipient's email client does not support viewing an attached photo inline or viewed in place within the body of the message, the attached file must be manually selected and opened to viewed.
    I am getting the email with the Picture Inline ( not as attachment),The picture is shown distorted , no metter what i do and with what mail client i am using (Gmail\Hotmail\My Enterprise exchange mail), i still get the same behavior.
    With which email client?

  • Why is email being sent from my secondary and not from my default account as per my settings - even when I remove the secondary email account?

    I have 2 email accounts on my iPhone 4S. My secondary account is a gmail account. My primary account (not gmail) is set as my default account. Why, when I compose a new message in my primary account and then send, the email is issued from from gmail? And then why if I delete/ remove my gmail account from my iPhone and then compose a new message from my primary account (now the only account on my iPhone) it still sends from the gmail account?

    No, "My Number" was not listed in my Phone menu, I had to manually type it it.  Is there a way for that number to automatically be listed in that "My Number" spot?  Would that maybe have something to do with my phone number not being listed as an option in the "Send and Receive" spot under messaging???

    I have 4 email accounts in apple Mail.  My mail is sending from the wrong account.  even on "reply" it sends from a different account.  I have 3 gmail accounts and one exchange server account. I choose which account to send from and it still sends from the same gmail account.  Help.

    I HAD two accounts because of this problem.  I completely removed the problem account from the Apple Mail client.  Guess what is happening??  That's right - Mail is still sending from the other account that no longer exists on my computer, and I have absolutely no idea how this is happening.  This is incredibly frustrating.  When a recipient chooses to reply to my message, quite often I won't get it now because it is going to the other account that has now been deleted from my system.  COME ON APPLE!!! WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS???

  • I am all of a sudden not able to send emails out from my outlook account on my iPhone.  Any suggestions?

    I am not able to send emails out from my outlook account on my iPhone 4s.  This feature has been working fine for 2 years and all of a sudden decided not to work.  I was able to receive emails but not send out.  I tried deleting the outlook account and recreating it but now I can't even recreate it.  It tells me it cannot verify my account information.  The interesting thing is that the account works fine on my PC, so I know my login info is correct.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Emails that I send from my yahoo account are being sent from my gmail account - I checked to see in Mail preferences if I had set gmail as my preferred server ( I had not).  This has happened on my iMac and Macbook Pro - both running on Yosemite.

    Emails sent from my Yahoo account are arriving from my Gmail account?! How? This has only started happening today.

  • Mail sending from 2 gmail accounts at the same time

    I currently have 2 gmail accounts, one is a Personal account that I use 90% of the time and the other is a Family account. I have them set up to sync through Apple Mail. Since upgrading to Mavericks, whenever I send an email from my Personal account, it appears that it is sending from both accounts even though I only selected to send from my Personal account. The most frustrating part is that the recepients show that it is coming from my Family account. Therefore, when they reply to my original email, the reply comes to my Family account. Does anyone else experience this or have a solution?
    Thanks

    Think I solved my own problem. It seems I just needed to delete both of my gmail accounts from Mail, restart computer, and re-add the accounts. Seems to be working now.

  • How can I remove an email address from one apple account and associate it with another?

    I created an appleID account to use with the mac AppStore without realising i previously had an appleID account from my first iPod touch.
    Now with OSX 10.8 I want to use the email address from the old account with the new account for Messages.app without having to manage 2 logins.
    I've followed the steps found on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 under the section "How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID" but each time I attempt to add the removed email address from the new account to the old account the input box shows the error: Email address is already verified for another Apple ID.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution?

  • How do I delete an email address from my icloud account as I am no longer friends with this man

    Hi,
    How do I remove an email address from my icloud account as I am no longer friends with this man and every time i type an s his email address comes up - I want this to stop

    If you haven't already removed the email address from your contacts in cloud, you may want to start there.  If that doesn't work, then you may be out of luck.  Unfortunately, smartphones remember things we don't want them to :-(

  • When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open.  How can I change this?

    When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open.  How can I change this?

    It should be an attachment.  Your Mac just displays a preview of certain attachments (such as .pdfs) in the body of the message.  A PC, for example, will see it as an attached file rather than a preview.
    You can save the attachment on your Mac by Control-clicking on it and selecting Save Attachment.

  • Email sent from iPad main account arrives from gmail address

    Email sent from iPad main account arrives from gmail address

    I have solved this. The main account SMTP setting was wrong so it was using the next outgoing mail server available which was Gmail. Disabling Gmail as an alternative highlighted that the main one was wrong. I fixed the main SMPTP outgoing server address and all now working. Hope this helps.

  • Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    You have to look at the email protocol being used.  the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
    Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
    Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

  • I upgraded the software on my iphone 4 and now it's downloading every email message from all my accounts (all previously read). 200 at a time. Manual delete is a problem since there are 3500. Suggestions?

    Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
    What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!
