Emails sent from iPhone not being received

I've noticed this happening over the past week or so... Anytime I initiate a new email thread from my Gmail account on my iPhone, the recipient isn't getting it. If I go into Gmail via the web I'll see the email in my Sent Items, but it never arrives. In one instance, I got a bounceback message from the recipient's server, but in the others I haven't gotten anything back. This has happened to at least 5 different email addresses, all with different providers, that I've tried to send to, and needless to say I am sure that all of these addresses are indeed valid recipients.
I'm already running iPhone OS 3.1...

If you see it in the gmail sent box on the web, then it was sent.
It sounds like something you need to talk with google about.

While traveling in Ireland and riding on hotel WiFi, emails sent from iPhone not always received -- some were, some were not. All were shown as sent on my iPhone.

While traveling in Ireland last week, I was using my iPhone 5 to access my incoming email and to send email. All of my outgoing emails are shown as sent but not all were received. Not a function of whether emails were replies or particular addressees -- some emails to same addressees received, others not. Help would be appreciated.

That sounds like a local WiFi issue...can you login to the email server of your email provider? If so, you can check and see if the emails you sent reached the server.
Providers like Verizon, and AT&T, and Comcast in the US have direct login capability for subscribers...there you can check your account activity and see if the emails were received by the server to send on. The iPhone merely shows you that the email left the iPhone, nothing about what happened after that.

I have several email account setup on iphone. for one of them can receive from/to emails from phone, but emails sent from computer not received on phone. phone shows receiving but does not come thru

I have iphone 4s with several email accounts set up. For one of these accounts, and only one, test emails sent from phone come thru fine. But computer generated mail doesn't come to phone. For test messages phone shows "receiving" but nothing comes to inbox. External sent mail does not come to phone inbox, but does to outlook on computer. Have checked settings and these seem correct. What's up? Four other accounts work fine.

If you can send e-mail when on WiFi from home, but not when on 3G, that indicates your email provider is blocking e-mail being sent from outside their network. This is done to control Spam. ISPs who do this will usually have a separate SMTP server that should be used when using a mobile device. Check with them again.

Emailed photos taken with iPhone not being received

Emailed photos taken with iPhone not being recieved.
Photos I have taken with the iPhone and then emailed are never received. I have sent them to two different yahoo accounts and neither account received the photos... I sent both using EDGE and WIFI... Same trouble with both...
Any idea why this feature is not working ?
Thanks,
-Frank

Now it's magicly working.... maybe....
I did as you asked and sent myself emails from my iphone and nothing was received.... tried sending to my yahoo account and my work account... did this 3 or 4 times and nothing was received and nothing was shown as being sent... even though I caould hear the "sent" sound each time....
I then tried sending to my personal and my work accounts and also added one of those to the "CC" line... so that email had 2 email address in the "To:" line and 1 eamil address in the "cc:" line... That one worked just fine !!! got it twice in my personal account and once in my work account.
I then tried emailing the same photo that I had tried before and it too worked correctly...
The only itmes that have shown up in my sent box are the last tow... the email with multipul addresses and the photo that I sent right after...
So... it appears to be owrking at the moment...
Thanks for your help... I'm not sure why it's working now.. but at least it is...
Thanks for you help,

Reading emails sent from iPhones on Nokia N8 Belle

My phone works well and receives "normal E mails" and attachements.
However E mails sent from iPhones display the header and any attachements, photos or security/copyright message.
My complaint is that the text of the message is missing. Once downloaded there is no option to refresh
or download again. I do not remove messages from the server with the mobiles only with the PC.
When message is fetched by a PC the text is there. It also arrives on my N900.
I could not find mention of this in the discussions.. Thanks in anticipation.. Nokpiks

@Murf1
If you don't want to install what is offered, you can go to SW updates > tap on three horizontal line icon at bottom right of screen > Settings > Auto-check for updates = OFF
You also need to temporarily turn off mobile data and restart to remove the notification.

Sent mail is not being received

Some of my emails use my me.com account are not being received by the recipient.
The emails show being SENT in my SENT box.

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?

Custom "FROM" address on email sent from iPhone

We need to insure that all email sent from an iPhone 6 uses a particular company FROM address. That address will not be set up in an email account on the phone, and I'm not able to see any obvious way to configure what we require.
Is this available?
Thanks.

Can you elaborate a little?
Are you speaking of an email signature? Or something like a custom address?

Email sent from iPhone appears in Sent Items days later

On our Mac clients we use Entourage 2008 SP2 which connects to Exchange 2003 SP2 running on Window Server 2003.
So we're very pleased our iPhone 3Gs with 3.1.1 work as well as they do with ActiveSync email to Exchange. (Well done Apple.)
However, we have noticed that some emails sent from the iPhone appear in Entourage's (and OWA's) Sent Items folder days later than when the message was sent.
Also, the Subject is BLANK.
This is not good as we are contemplating moving from BlackBerry to iPhone for our client servicing teams who need to have an accurate record on on-the-hoof communications.
Any ideas?
Regards
C.

IPhone OS 3.0 did not identify itself properly to Exchange 2007 on any iPhone. With iPhone OS 3.1, all iPhones identify themselves properly to the server, essentially fixing a glitch in the previous operating system. However, now iPhone and iPhone 3G users that upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1 won't be able to login to Exchange 2007 servers that require hardware encryption. The new iPhone 3GS, you won't notice any change. Apple's newest phone is equipped with hardware encryption, so it will meet the requirements of the Exchange server when identifying itself. If you've already upgraded your phones to iPhone OS 3.1 on an iPhone or iPhone 3G and connect to an Exchange 2007 server, you have to turn off the hardware encryption requirement for those devices. So, if you decide you have to have hardware encryption, then you'll need to upgrade all phones to 3gs.

Sent emails on my iphone not being saved on my hotmail's sent items

Sent emails on my iphone are not being saved on my hotmail's sent items

Delete the account on your phone under settings> Mail, contacts, calendars> hotmail account> delete. This will not erase anything on your email account as your phone only accesses the server. Then you can add the account again in the same place in settings. Just make sure you have the password so you can add it right away. Sometimes people forget their password because they never use it. If that's the case you can go online and click "forgot password" and resset it before you uninstall it on your phone. Hope this helps.

Some sent Mac Mail not being Received

My mac. mail account is receiving mail and indicates it is sending mail but it will not allow me to send my mail to myself (as a test) or to my friend with an active mac mail account. She is having the same problem. In an extra bizarre twist, one small forward externally received mail is able to be sent and received by us both. Neither my friend nor I are getting any error messages on our sent mail. Neither of us have any rules applying to our mail that we are aware of would impact sending and receiving mail. I have tried synching my account, etc.. and nothing seems to work. Can you please help.

Hi. I had this exact same problem, and it had the same oddities yours does. It is an Apple problem, not sure exactly what. But the only way it got solved for me was to write .Mac tech support (be sure it is not their feedback page and also make sure it is .Mac tech support and not Apple). It took them three days, but they finally got back to me and when they did, they gave me detailed instructions that weren't needed, because the problem cleared for me. But not until hearing from them. Either mine was fixed by accident because they cleared the problem for other users who complained or they checked on mine and managed to find the problem.
This cryptic message was included in my email: "Apple has implemented several measures in the .Mac Mail system to help resolve these issues. To assist in our continuing investigation, please inform us in the event that any messages sent from your .Mac account after September 7, 2006, are not received as expected."
There has been some speculation that this problem is being caused by anti-spam software Apple has installed on some servers (to see how it worked—I guess not too well!).
That's all I know about it! There are numerous other threads you can check out for more information, but for me, it was only writing .Mac tech support that made any difference (since the problem was totally on their end).
Another workaround in the meantime—you can change your SMTP server to the server provided for your ISP. I changed it in my .Mac account that wasn't working and it worked fine sending from my Comcast SMTP server.
Hope this helps!

POP3 Email - Sent from iPhone - No Sent Items

Hi All,
I have a POP3 account set up on my iPhone 4. I have sent emails from the account using the phone, and have confirmed they've been received at the other end.
My Sent mail folder however is not showing up with the mail I have sent. I've done a few google searches and it seems to be something other people have noted, but I can't seem to find a solution.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Dave

With a POP account, the account's Sent mailbox will not be created until a message is successfully sent with the account. Since you state that you have verified that you have successfully sent mail from your phone, try deleting the account on your phone, followed by re-creating it.

TS3899 why does all emails sent from my phone being sent to my phone contacts and how do i stop this?

how do i stop all email address sent from my phone from being added to my contact list?

What kind of email account is this? Generally this only happens with accounts that you sync with Outlook. There is a setting in Outlook to add them. Most other mail clients will display a suggested list from previously written email, but will not automatically add them to the contact list.
Are you actually seeing them in the contact list, or is it just that when you go to type another name in with a similar starting letter you are seeing the name? The iPhone keeps this in a cache in case you want to use them again, but they delete eventually. Or, you can delete them by starting the email out, then tapping on the to the end of the address and then deleting the suggestion.

Emails sent from iphone don't show up in sent folder.

For some reason any emails I send from my iphone don't go into my sent folder. It has become a pain. I sometimes use my phone to send business emails and I'm not always sure if they have even sent and don't have a record of them.
The emails I send from my computer are in the 'Sent' folder on my computer and my iphone. It's only the emails that I send from my iphone that aren't in my 'Sent' folder on the iphone or the computer.
Server settings are the same as on my computer. It's just like my iphone doesn't save the sent emails.
Please help!
Steph

Hello Sswilkins,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989
Ensure that the Camera app is closed on the device that took the photo. Photos will not upload from an iOS device to My Photo Stream until the Camera app is closed.
Best of luck,
Mario

Email replies from iPhone not shown as replied in Mail with Mavericks.

I'm on a Mac Pro, MBP, and iPhone 5. All using current versions of Mavericks and iOS 7. If I send an emil form my iPhone, it shows up in my sent Mail on my computers, but If I reply to an email, I don't get the 'Replied" icon next to the message in Mail. Any thoughts?

Did you ever resolve this? I'm having something similar occurring. Mail sent from my iMac, doesn't show up on my iPhone, replied mail on the iMac doesn't show up on the iPhone either. I have the "replied" arrow symbol on the iPhone but that message doesn't appear.
I updated my iPhone to the 4.0 version and have had battery drain and antenna loss since doing it. So if you haven't updated, I wouldn't unless you have too.

Email sent from ipad not posted in Thunderbird "Sent" file

My iPad and desktop [Thunderbird 3.1.7] sync fine on inbox. But when I send from either, the other does not post the mail in the "Sent" box.

Thunderbird [desktop] is POP3 which is forwarded to gmail's IMAP. Am I right that Gmail will forward mails sent from the iPad back to T'bird's POP3?
