Email sent from Mail (Mavericks) not getting received!?

When I send an email it leaves the Outbox and winds up in Sent, but it is not received at the other end. It disappears into the void: no error message, no bounce notification, nothing. It's hard to say how long this has been going on since I have no way of knowing which emails were received and which weren't.
My email is hosted with Bluehost. (I have a ticket open with them but they take up to 72 hours to respond.) According to Connection Doctor their SMTP server is working. Mail sent via their webmail interface works fine. Nor is it any particular receiving domain; test mails to my Gmail and Yahoo accounts were also not received.
I have all kinds of other complaints about Mail (in particular with search) that I've chosen to live with but this problem is obviously intolerable. Is there anything I can try while I wait for Bluehost to verify that the server's working?

There is a reason we suggest only composing HTML signature in the composer and saving the file. However, could you email me to see what that signature actually looks like (It might bounce we will see how google likes it.) this forum really messes up HTML source

Emails sent from Thunderbird are not getting received when signature attached

Emails sent from Thunderbird aren't being received by my yahoo and gmail accounts when I have the signature attached.
It's a business email account, and I really need to have a professional signature.
Thank you
Susan

Some mail sent from Mail is not being received or sent

I am losing mail, both received and sent, intermittantly. It definitely involves my .Mac email account but I don't know if it involves others. A friend who also has a .Mac account is experiencing the same problem. It does NOT necessarily have to do with any attachments or bcc's. Is anyone else?
iMac G-5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I have a similar but perhaps unrelated problem. Every now and then, I send an email on my gmail account using Mail. The sent mail appears in my sent box, but never arrives, and does not appear in my webmail sent box (where it usually does, using gmail). Most of the time it works, and it even works most of the time with people it has had a problem with, including mail I send to myself at work at my professional address. Usually arrives...but not always. I don't know how to trust my sent mail box without always going on the webmail to make sure it actually went out. I only have this problem when using the Mail application, but there are no other common characteristics (attachements, ISPs, etc) to say there could be a problem with one of those things. Anyone else have this problem?

The email sent from macbook do not appear in my iphone and yahoo account

the email sent from macbook do not appear in my iphone and yahoo account

thanks for your help... I was feeling frustrated because the sync problem, but with your suggestion all contacts are now on my iPhone. _Thanks once again_.
I think that I was asking two different questions at the same time, because the problem with the iPhone synchronization was solved, but the .Mac Address Book still has no new contacts... just the contacts before the Mac OS X update to Leopard. I guess that I will need to look for help in other discussion topic.

Emails sent from mi BB not refreshing in MSOutlook

Hi, i have this enviroment:
- MS Outlook 2010
- BB Curve 8520, v5.0.0.592 (Platform 5.2.0.64), kernel v3.8.5.85
- Gmail account
- Provider: Movistar
I have this configuration:
- Gmail account: POP enabled, IMAP enabled.
- MS Outlook: gmail configure as POP, emails kept in server & delete items deleted in outlook from gmail at sync.
- BB Curve: only use gmail account. Configured by Movistar (i think it uses IMAP), auto sent a copy of the message (in email configuration), has no address saved.
- Last version of BBDesktop for sync all data of the organizer between MSOutlook, and BBCurve (contacts, calendar, tasks & notes).
- My primary app is MSOutlook, then BBCurve, then Gmail.
I need, as my hard disk fail to reinstall. So i translate all to my notebook. PST included. Install BBDesktop in notebook, etc.
Everything is all right (...but):
In my PC i have this:
- Emails sent and receive in Gmail, are sync with Outlook (with a single rule, all emails that i receive from gmail sent by me are moved to Sent Items Foldes in Outlook).
- Emails sent from BB, are sync to Gmail and Outlook.
- Emais sent from Outlook, are sync to Gmail, BB, with the side effect that Outlook gets emails duplicated (that is something to that i get used to, so, there is no problem with it).
Since i move all to my notebook, i can do almost everything, almost:
- The problem is that Emails sent from BB, are sync to Gmail, but not to Outlook!
- I have seen a lot of time all configurations, and all appear to be the same as always.
Solutions & Problem to be solved:
- I try make BB sending me a copy of all outgoing message, automatically, and this seems to work, but now, i get the duplicated email in Gmail.
- As my primary app is still Outlook, i cannot handle the duplicated email to be erased (manually), or i have to connect to Gmail to mantain it clean.
Any idea about the best way to configure Outlook/Blackberry/Gmail to achieve my goals?
Thanks for any idea!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Not all services are able to sync Sent Items via BIS. Not knowing who hosts your business account, we can't tell you if it should work or not. Here's a matrix that discusses the reconciliation features of various email providers.

My emails come from computer to iPhone and iPad, but the emails sent from them do not sync to the computer. Can someone help me solve this? I have a 3Gs

My emails come from computer to my iPhone 3GS and my iPad, but emails sent from those devices do not show up on my computer. Any ideas how to fix?

Cannot sort emails sent from Mail App and Exchange

When trying to sort emails on Outlook in Windows, lets say by "Flag", emails coming from a mac using mail app and exchange get placed at the top of the list.
Have tried sending emails from the same account via webmail and iphone and they get sorted correctly.
Anyone has had this problem?

So, Here's what happens:
1) Send email from Laptop (Snow Leopard) with Exchange Integration
2) Send email from iPhone (3.1) with Exchange Integration
In Outlook 2003 sort by flag (neither of these messages are flagged). Any email sent from the Snow Leopard is sorted first in the Unflagged category in Outlook. Any of the email sent from the iPhone is sorted normally.
There's no differences in the headers to cause these to sort differently. The only headers that differ are the Date, Subject/Thread-Topic, Thread-Index, Message-ID, x-ems-stamp. But, in the Message-ID it has the same domain.
Both Snow Leopard and iPhone are configured to use the same Exchange OWA/OWS.

Emails sent from my iphone not syncing...

Emails sent from my iPhone haven't been syncing with my macbook. Having finally looked into it I've clicked the 'Store sent messages on the server' box and whilst this makes all my iphone sent emails appear on the macbook, all the macbook sent emails then disappear!
How can I fix it so that I receive all sent emails from both iPhone and macbook on both?

It depends on the Email account you have. Who are you with? GMAIL, YAHOO, ICLOUD?

Several hour delay in receiving emails sent from mail?

for 3 years i've had a pop email account with yahoo and it has worked flawlessly with my apple mail program until a few days ago when people started telling me that the emails i sent took several hours to reach them. so, using mail, i sent myself a test and confirmed the delay. emails i send immediately appear in my "sent" folder yet they don't reach their intended recipients until hours later. this problem is intermittent. there was a brief window the other day when emails i was sending from mail were arriving quickly. but, the problem soon returned and persists now. the problem does not affect the receiving of emails with mail. in other words, i am receiving all emails with mail. the problem only affects emails i send using apple mail.
when i access my email account directly through yahoo to send emails, those emails arrive immediately.
i hope i have described the problem clearly enough and i thank the community in advance for any insight and/or suggestions.

If you select a message in Mail's message viewer, then select the menu item View > Message > Long Headers, the message headers will be displayed. Depending on how the message was routed, there may be several "Received" fields - these get added at each mail server that handles the message. Each "Received" field contains information such as IP addresses, host names, dates, and times - these can be used to tell how the message was routed and how long it took. Note that a sender can fake, or "spoof", their information (usually these are spammers), but once the message reaches real-world servers the information will be correct.

Email sent from Nexus 4 not showing in Mail client

Going from an iPhone to an Android device has it's own issues, but one that shouldn't be an issue is that of IMAP emails.
In replying to any email from the Nexus 4, it will not be available to view in Apple's Mail client, which I use for all 5 of my email accounts. It will show in Mail that the email has been replied to with the arrow on the left of the email, but it will not allow me to click on the arrow to see the email I sent. It gives me an error message, 'Mail was unable to find your reply to the message "email subject title". You may have deleted the message'. Nope, I didn't delete the message, but now I can't see it. This is a very crucial missing element for business reply emails. My compnay uses GMail servers for all it's mail, so it's not a me.com email issue specifically. Funny enough, that email account set up the easiest. It doesn't show messages sent from the Nexus 4 either, but I'm sure it's all part of the same problem.
Is anyone else having this same/similar issue?
Thanks for the help, Bruce.

For Exchange GMail there is a way to set your iOS device to use a different "Send As" name than when using a computer. Unfortunately in your case, you can set your computer to send an alternate name but the iOS device can only send the default GMail name, which is the name associated with your account. Ideally, you would like your iOS device to use the alternate and let your computer use the default.
But if you want to play around with this ...
1- On the iOS device itself, use Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync. You will have to log in at the prompt with your GMail account info.
2- Select the iOS device name (in case you have multiple iOS devices using Google sync).
3- Select "Enable 'Send Mail As' for this device" and Save the changes.
4- Using a computer, log into your GMail account and select Settings/ Accounts and Import, then at the "Send mail as" prompt select "edit info" (off to the right).
5- Change your outgoing name.
The name you specify in #5 will be used by your computer, but the iOS device will continue using the original (default) outgoing name. You can see why you need the opposite in your case, so unless you can change the default to be your wife's name and then set the alternate to be your name, I think you're out of luck.

Help! Email sent from Mail just disappears!

Hi, all. For the past couple of days, I've been having a bizarre problem with my Mail software. When I send an email, the recipient does not receive it, and it's not saved in my Sent folder. (I have my Accounts prefs set to save all Sent mail.)
This problem started suddenly. I have not downloaded any new software recently.
I'm using OS 10.6.3 and Mail 4.2.
If I log on to my ISP's Web mail site, I can send and receive any test messages just fine. But if I try to send myself a test email from within Mail, I never get it, and it's not saved in my Sent folder.
I'd love to be able to send email from within Mail again. Can someone tell me what's going on, and how to fix it? Alternatively, is there an online support service from Apple that I could contact?
I'm a longtime Mac user and I love it, until things like this happen!
Thanks very much,
Heather

I also need to mention that the "rebuilding icon" on the Sent folder, in the Folders list, is constantly spinning, as if it's constantly rebuilding the folder. It's as if it's trying to find something, to finish the rebuilding, but can't get to it. ??? I've watched the icon for a bit, and it NEVER stops.
Again, thanks for any help.

Email sent from iPad don't get sent

Some email messages sent from my iPad 2 just disappear. Don't get sent.

POP by definition doesn't "share" folders. Sent messages from one machine are invisible to another. Messages deleted on one machine are gone, period. IMAP, used by MobileMe and Gmail, may be better for your needs. I don't use Yahoo mail, but I'd be surprised if this weren't "working as intended" (by them, if not by you.)

Emails sent from alias are not appearing as alias address with recipients

I have a personal domain name email alias. I have linked this to a free Outlook account. I have set up the outlook account on TB using my personal domain alias. However, when I send an email using the alias, it appears in the recipient's inbox as coming from the outlook address and not my personal one.
The issue definitely isn't with Outlook or my personal domain, as it works when sending mail from my iPhone.
How do I fix this?

I assume your using some sort of outlook.com app. Because hotmail aliases do not work with Thunderbird or any other mail client that uses SMTP. They used to, but Microsoft made a decision to prevent that. All mail sent from their SMTP server now uses the details of the primary account. They actually remove what Thunderbird puts in there to substitute their own.
