Emails Sending Externally from Desktop
Just set up my blackberry with my office outlook. Here's my problem:
1. Can send/receive emails no problem from my blackberry (not the problem)
2. Outlook on my desktop - can receive emails, can send emails to my staff internally
3. PROBELM "CAN NOT" send externally - keep getting an error message....see below:
SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:

Hey tamms,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Since it seems like this is not a BlackBerry issue, I would suggest you contact your mail provider to find out if they can resolve this issue for you.

There are thousands of posts on this forum about sending e-mails and document attchments - what exactly are you stuck on? Is it getting the the path to the Desktop without the user picking the location? Why is that difficult?

Problem sending mail from desktop
Hi
I am currently not able to send mail from my desktop. Works fine via web though. The message I get after a period of Mail trying to send message is the following
"The connection to the server 'smtp.mac.com' on port 25 timed out"
If I then run Connection Doctor, the further information I receive is
"Could not connect to this SMTP server. Check your network connection and and that you entered the correct information in the Account preferences".
Any help most welcome.
ThanksJ - Let me describe the issue I had before describing my work-around:
I started getting the message "Could not connect to this SMTP server" only after the upgrade from Tiger to Leopard, and then only when I was trying to send attachments larger than about 50KB. I'm in a rural area, and only have dial-up. I was able to send text messages, and could receive emails with text and attachments, regardless of size.
I believe that it is a Leopard issue in my case. Perhaps not in yours. Certainly you'll want to verify that something hasn't changed in your outgoing SMTP server settings....maybe contact your ISP to verify that they haven't made any changes.
However, if your problem does seem similar to mine, and if you're about to pull your hair out, like I was, you may wish to try what I've done to address this problem:
I have found two work-arounds...both are cumbersome, and I don't believe either is acceptable, but they do work for me. 1) Send mail from your ISP's webmail facility (or gmail, for example) or, 2) I have made a new partition on my disk on which I (re)installed Tiger. (I didn't have the "Could not connect..." issue with Tiger) I can drag attachments or other info into the Tiger partition from my Leopard disk, then restart in the Tiger disk. From Tiger, I can compose and send email from Tiger's Mail app. Good luck! Bill

Sending attachments from desktop
Is there any way to send a document as an attachment right from the desktop? So, for instance, you're in a folder on a document and you want to send it as an attachment. Can one add a "send as attchment" option in the ctrl-click menu, or is there another way?
I have looked at automater, but it seems to only work for a specific file, and not as a general rule.
Any thoughts?Does your Automator workflow work when the first action is "Get Selected Finder Items"?
Edited: yes it does:
Action 1: Get Selected Finder Items (Finder)
Action 2: New Mail Message (Mail) -
Is there a final answer to why emails do not send from iphones when away from home IP?
This is a common anti-spam technique for ISPs to prevent mail from being sent from anywhere other than your service location. Ask Road Runner if there are any specific settings you can use to circumvent this.

I have thunderbird on the laptop but don't use alot. Because I will be using it primarily for the next few months, I want to move some of the existing messages and archived files on the desktop thunderbird to take with me on the laptop. Do I need to move profile as well as files? I tried to drag and drop to put on a flash drive but that wouldn't go. Any help is appreciated.
I gather the best way is to copy the profile. I checked both Thunderbird and they were updated to be the same. I was able to copy and paste a backup copy of the profile to a flash drive. Now when I go to the laptop I am faced with the question about getting it loaded and where to put it. Also I should note that the laptop has 2 users myself and my wife. If I get this on the laptop will that stay on my user or will it wipe out my wife's email? Much to learn!!

lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that -
Pros and cons of using email sending package in oracle 8.1.6
hi ,
i would like to know the advantages /disadvantages of using email sending package from oracle 8.1.6
compared to sending the same using say perl or php.
iam developing a site in php/oracle8.1.6 , in which iam supposed to create a payement module.whenever a user
register(for free trial or subscribing the site) i'll have to send him a welcoming mail.In addition to this iam also supposed to find out wether subscribers are paying cash at right time and if not send them reminder mails and other for related scenarios . i can do the same in Perl or PHP.but if iam not gaining much(say based on server performance or load) then i think i can go ahead with oracle package. when i tested it i found that its slow . what about the load that it may cause for the server (ours is linux ).
please do give inputs on thisHi Ravi,
Thanks for your reply.
But I am specifically looking at pros and cons for web services. So the thread which you passed to me won't help.

I have downloaded the latest pages update on my iPad, but my iMac still has Pages version 4.3, and I cannot find out how to update it on my desktop. When I try to send something from my iPad pages via email to be opened on my desktop in Pages, it won't open in Pages. I get a message that it can't be opened because the version is too old. I sent the document as a PDF and it worked. But I want to be able to use Pages back and forth. HOw do I update the Pages version on my desktop iMac?
The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it. -

Cannot send external emails from SAP
Hi,
I am trying to set up emails to external systems, but for some reason it is not working. I have checked the port number for the SMTP server with the administrator and it is the default one, the SMTP server name, and also in SCOT the INT portion has a * in it.
I am able to send emails to internal domain (our work email domain) but when sending it to external domains, it keeps coming back with the error message " recipient unknown".
I have some doubts but am not sure if these should / could be the problem.
1. Is there a job that need to run periodically for sending emails.
2. Should there be a * in SCOT in the INT part ? or should it be @.com or something else.
3. Is there anything else that I am missing?
Platform : ECC 6.0
Thanks,
KunalHi Adam,
Thanks for your reply. Here is what I have set up for the instructions you provided me.
1. I<b>n SCOT, menu 'Settings' --> 'Default Domain'</b> I have my work domain set up.
Assume that I work for ebay.It is set up as ebay.com. I am able to send emails to [email protected] want to be able to send emails to other domains.
Question : Should I be setting up the name of the domain that I want to send emails to ? I dont think that this is feasible. But still I might be wrong.
2. <b>Your SMTP server should have added this SAP server into its auth list.</b>
Yes. I have checked on this with my SMTP administrator. The ip of that SAP server is in the authorization list.
3.<b>A periodic job ( 2 minutes? 5 minutes? etc) should be defined for sending Emails automatically</b>
I have the following jobs running when I go to jobs in SCOT
MAILSERVERSEND INT 5min 14:46:52
SAPCONNECT INT SEND 1 INT 10min 14:55:00
Is there any other job that needs to be running for this?
4.<b>A '*' should be defined in 'SCOT' -->'INT' --> 'Internet' --> 'Address areas'</b>
Yes, There is.
Thanks,

Not receiving emails, but can send them on desktop; but can do both on iPhone.
Ok, I have spent since a day or so since the first of this month trying to solve this issue. I use Hostgator, which shouldn't be an issue, but it seems to be. I have on my phone all my emails that are being hosted by hostgator set up as fetch, and it recieves my emails fine. My desktop though, can't. It can see the servers, and send emails, but it can't do anything but. It can't even download the emails I sent to myself, but when I go on web mail I can see them all.
My connection to the server is good:
But for some reason I can't recieve any emails from the IMAP server.
I put the computer is Safe Mode, and I could recieve the emails, but when I put it in normal mode, the emails don't download. I use Avast! Anti-Virus, I use SugarSync, I use Splashtop, And Free Memory Pro.
For web browsers, I use Crome, and Safari.
I use Apple Mail and Postbox, both can't recieve emails.
I can't imagine what is keeping my computer from downloading from the server.
Can someone help please?I have not seen that review before and the only thing I take issue with is
the authors of Clam AV for Mac, apparently do not understand these concepts. Both the admin and limited user can only scan files w/in "<user name>/documents". 99% of the files on a Mac are outside of "/users/<admin>,<other user>/documents. What good is a antivirus scan, that has no access?
There is only one author and I can assure you that he fully understands the permission issues involved. He is committed to follow Apple security guidelines in this matter which say that even an admin user should not be able to see files and folders belonging to other users without their explicit permission. I realize that there is a lot of software that ignore this rule, including virtually all other A-V software vendors, but I don't think he will ever budge on that subject. I'm sure this same limitation applies to any other A-V software downloaded from the AppStore.
ClamXav will scan any file or folder that the current user has read access to. For an admin user this is by far the majority of the files on the hard drive, not the 1% indicated by the reviewer. For a limited user, that would be reduced to only files that are owned by that user and any other files readable by "everybody".
I realize that it has widely been suggested that users not routinely operate with admin rights, but I'm guessing the number of users that are actually practicing that are minimal. Novice users won't see that guidance and most of those that do won't be able to figure out how to accomplish that. Experienced users may give it a try, but quickly get tired of switching back and forth to do their admin duties. To me one of those admin duties would be to run ClamXav periodically to pick up anything that may have slipped by, especially when there is more than one user using the computer. Each of those other users should also be using ClamXav to inspect their own files. Of course a limited use user can use an admin userid and password if they know it to do installations, etc., so it is possible to slip something by.
In the case of the web site version of ClamXav, a limited user can run Sentry to watch all of the entry points to the computer, including the download folder, e-mail and any external drives he has access to. That should detect any currently known malware, including Windows, before it becomes an issue.
Lastly, as far as I have been able to determine, all the ClamAV® signatures are for malware that would be readable to an admin user and most by a limited use user. It would be a waste of time to look into the unreadable portions of the System (mostly the Unix sub-system) since there is no currently known malware that would exist there.
What bothers me is that it won't look at files beyond ownership? I know it sounds odd, but I do deal with some form of internet esponage at times due to the type of company I am working on building.
Again, you will be able to examine any files readable by you, any group you belong to or "everybody" as long as they are enclosed in a directory (folder) that you can access. Here's an example of a full hard drive scan I did just the other day as a test:
Scanned directories: 192387
Scanned files: 914610
Total errors: 692
The "errors" are almost certainly files I did not have read access to as an admin so I was able to scan 99.9% of the files I had access to.
Disk Utility tells me I have 1,150,506 files at the moment, so I scanned about 79.5% of them.
