Finally receiving inbound email, still unable to send emails

My settings are all up to date! What is the problem and why does Verizon make it so difficult to find out that there is a problem with email servers and what are they doing to fix it?
I received no emails on any device for probably 12 hours, then beginning a few hours earlier this morning I can receive emails, but I still cannot send emails.
VERIZON PLEASE SERVE YOUR CUSTOMERS WITH THE COURTESY OF MAKING INFORMATION EASILY AVAILABLE TO EXPLAIN WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND THE FORECASTED TIME IT WILL BE FIXED.
Seriously, why is it so difficult to find this information?

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOUR FRUSTRATION AT THE LACK OF INFO.
That robo chat thing is USELESS!!! I couldn't find any "news" links or headings, I googled to see if there was any mention of an outage, I tried different computers, I powered off my router for a minute, I tried the online support pages (terrible!!), I then got something that asked me if I wanted a Live Chat, I filled out some info, clicked send, then.... it cleared the page and said, "Live Chat Not Availbe". I finally found an 800 number. The "path" I followed, only wanted to tell me port settings. The prompts let you go down, but not back up. I had to hang up and call back. Then they wanted to "Confirm" my account by asking billing info that I didn't have in front of me. Then I was in the queue for 25 minutes until it just clicked a few times and dropped me. Finally, later, Live Chat did work and he/she told me it was an outage, (which I suspected). Then he/she was rather adament (rude in my opinion) on [sort of] that it was my fault for not registering a cell number for them to tell me about outages. I don't need or want a cell call or even a text, I just want a web page that will let me know of noteworthy info (aka, the same stuff that they would text out to me while I'm driving). He/she gave me a link to their Outages page, then admitted that there was nothing on that page for me to see about this issue.
He/she said there's a ticket. I posted that in another forum and it was editted out (we're not allowed to mention ticket numbers. ????).
Oops, sorry, didn't mean to unload, I just wanted to let you know that it's a known outage for sure and ~supposedly~ they're working on it. It be nice to know the ETA though.

What happens when you try to send a message? If you get an error message,
what is the exact complete wording of that message?
Are you using iMessage or a 3rd party app?
Is your account properly provisioned for messaging if using other than iMessage?

Have you contacted them to make sure the outgoing mail settings are correct?

Hi mopster555,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you are not receiving messages on two iOS devices. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

I cannot send nor receive emails. The message I get is that I need to type in my account password which I've done but still unable to send or receive. I get texts fine

My Iphone 4 is new, and I have been able to send and receive texts, but cannot send nor receive emails. I get the message that I need to input my password for my yahoo account which I've done many times. When I type messagefor outgoing it only allows me to save as a draft. Any ideas?

Are you positive you're typing the correct password in? You might want to try and reset your password, and try again. You'll get texts because it isn't connected to your email account.

HT4623 I followed all the above suggested steps, still unable to send or respond to incoming emails on my iPhone.

I spoke with tech support @ Verizonwireless and was told the smtp.live.com is the correct outgoing mail server as far as the info he had. Nothing else he could do to assist. Any suggestions? Thx.

I would verify each smtp setting in the settings email account with the settings
provides by the email provider to verify that those still matched

Able to receive e-mail but unable to send.

Hi,
I've had my Macbook Pro since January and have my e-mail accounts set up through mail. About a week ago my cox accounts stopped sending email. The error states that the server does not recognize the smpt account. I called Cox and everything is working on their end. I can send and receive from the webmail site and my smtp is set up properly.
I tried deleting the mailbox to re-set it, but it doesn't delete. It asks me if I'm sure I want to delete; I click yes; it's still there.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

You need to make sure your Outgoing mail Server is correct in Mail>Accounts>Accounts Setup. In any case SL Mail and AddressBook forum is here:

Can receive e-mails but unable to send e-mails (BES)

Hi everybody,
Whenever I send an e-mail I get this X sign and a message saying "Service Blocked". However, I can receive e-mails and it says Received As Desktop (Secure). I contacted Saudi Telecom and they assured me that my account is BES and they even showed me that in the screen.
I'm kind of lost, I tried all solutions but nothing worked for me. I have the 9000.
Many thanks for your support,

Hello naserals
I can tell you with 100% certainty that you do not have to correct
plan for BES email. Contact your service provider and tell them you need to
have BES services provisioned on your account. If they say the
provisioning is correct tell them you want to talk to a supervisor because it
is not correct.

Earthlink email - Unable to send but can receive

Has anyone figured out how to get mail to send from the New Pre? I have done everything humanly possible including countless hours on the phone with Palm, Earthlink, and Sprint to no avail. I'm able to receive messages but still unable to send. Please help me.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Have you tried the following earthlink setting for the outgoing server?
smtpauth.earthlink.net, use authentication.
If that doesn't work, use the sprint outgoing server,
smtp.sprintpcs.com, use authentication and no ssl.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

Hi there n2tck!
I have an article for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue with your email account on your iPhone. The article can be found right here:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
Specifically, you may want to try the last step:
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
If that doesn't do the trick, you might want to follow the advice at the end of the article:
If you're still unable to send or receive email, contact your email provider and verify the account settings are correct. You will need to gather this information (PDF).
Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

Still can't send email with Yosemite due to SMTP offline?

Hello there. I logged a question immediately after downloading yosemite which seemed to have resulted in my email account not working.
no matter what I do, when trying to send an email Iget messages of SMTP offline'; I have tried all kinds of suggestions from on here all to no effect.
Tonight I deleted the accounts, logged off, rebooted and recreated the two email accounts. I can now receive email but still cannot send and get the same 'SMTP Offline' message as before.
As before the two accounts and same settings work flawlessly on iPad 2, windows laptop and two Android based phones, so must be linked to the iMac and Yosemite?
Anyone else still unable to send emails? I

HP Office Jet Pro 8600 N911g Unable to send or receive faxes

Product purchased on April 14, 2014 - worked fine until July 03, 2014. When I turned it on, I received the message "Unable to send or receive faxes" All I can do is click OK. I also lost the icon on the computer desktop a the same time. The phone line is working. I have a dial tone and can receive and make phone calls. I uninstalled and reinstalled the software. The icon is back on the computer desktop but still receive the same message "unable to send or receive faxes". I don't use this feature much, but I will need it eventually......
Also, had HP look up the warranty status so I could find someone local to troubleshoot the issue. HP said it was out of warranty - purchased in 2012!!?? I've sent in a copy of my receipt for proof of purchase, waiting for a reply from them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hello,
I apollogize for taking so long to reply. Life got in the way....school, health, holidays....
HP was NOT able to resolve this issue. They sent me a replacement. I was happy that they shipped it quickly (within days). However, I was very unhappy with the replacement unit. Although it looked new, the lid didn't feel tight and solid. I thought it would break every time I lifted it. I reinstalled everything, and it worked for a few days. Then I started having different issues. The scanner would not work properly. It kept going into a "loop" and could not recover. At first I thought it was because I was scanning multiple pages, but it also happened on single pages. I do a LOT of scanning, more so than faxing. I would have to shut the unit off - as in unplug it from the wall outlet - AND reboot my computer. Then it would work for awhile. The machine was also noisy when going into a print cycle. I kept waiting for a paper jam. I ended up calling HP Support and asking to speak to someone higher up the ranks. No can do, until they go through the whole process of troubleshooting, an hour on the phone....all I wanted was another replacement - NEW. Corporate was nice enough to replace the unit again. However, they explained that there are NO NEW units upon replacement. They are considered refurbished even if they are new, due to some "law". Whatever. Send me a unit that has a tight lid and works properly. This unit took longer to arrive than the first replacement. Long story short, worked fine for a short amount of time and then the same problems. Now it gets hung up during printing AND scanning. (I have not bothered with the fax.) In my opinion, it has to be a software problem within the unit. It's a shame. I really like the software program when scanning; through the years, I've tried Canon and Epson before returning to HP.
In my opinion, I think it is a KNOWN issue to HP and they are unable or unwilling to fix it.
My solution - I wasn't going to call HP and waste more time. I went out and purchased something else for Christmas.
I will say that I had to visit my insurance agent when all this started, and I noticed that she has these units in her office - about four of them. They work great, she has never had a problem. However, she doesn't use them for faxing as she has a separate machine for that. In a way, I wish I had kept my original unit and just given up my fax capabilities. Hindsight is 20-20. Hope my experience will help you make a decision.
