Forwarded emails show my sender address as "rejected by the server". All forwarded mail sits forever in the outbox.
All other mail functions are completely normal. Started happening when I

IPhone 6 is unable to send email because the sender address was rejected by the server

When I try to send emails from my Microsoft Outlook for Mac, I get a message that says "Unable to Send Email. A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address was rejected by the server." I've checked all the settings (it is a POP account). I've deleted and re-installed. Any suggestions??

Please see this article on setting up an email account using the shaw mail server.

Good luck Friend.

I can send emails but not receive them. The sender address was rejected by the server

Your mail server doesn't like the sender's address for some reason, perhaps because his mail server has been blacklisted for spamming.

Greetings.
Same issue...... can't determine what username and password are ?
But, went thru process @ apple.com/support and changed port to 25. :::::
"Relaying denied" or "Email address rejected by the server" when you try to send email
This error indicates that either an email address is incorrect or your settings aren't correct for your current connection. Make sure the email address is correct for messages in the Outbox or try a different port:
If you're on a Wi-Fi network connected to the same network as your email domain, such as your Cable or DSL provider, try port 25:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your email account, then tap Account.
Scroll down and tap Outgoing Mail Server.
Tap Primary Server, then tap Server Port.
Delete the current port and enter 25.
Tap Done.
Now my iPhone5s is frozen in the "verifying" mode. I can not stop it???????????????
Now what?
thank you

The sender address (my .mac address) was rejected by the server

i cannot send mail. i get the error message "the sender address was rejected by the server". this is the third time this has happened and usually it is a port 25 issue. is 587 now being rejected as well?

I think I may have the answer to this issue, at least in my circumstances. In my case, I had my Netgear firewall email me a log of activity anytime certain activity occured. I received over 160 emails in 2 hours.
I found a similar issue in another forum which explains that .Mac has certain restrictions on how many emails can be sent and received in a 24 hour period. If one exceeds that quota, their account will be unable to send email for a 24 period. Here is a quote form the other forum topic:
"There is a restriction on the number of messages one can send in a 24-hour period, and on the number of recipients for a single message. These restrictions are described here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25301
If you exceed the number of emails or the number of recipients, your account will not be able to send for 24 hours."
So this may explain my situation. If you think you've exceeded your quota, this might explain for anyone else. I still have another couple of hours to see if my quota period expires and I can send again. I'm crossing my fingers.

I cannot send email - error message as follows : 'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk.' I can send email from other apple devices, and the email settings are identical. Any ideas?

For some reason I cannot send email - all was working fine, but now I get the following error message when I try to send email:
'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk'
I can receive incoming mail ok and I can send email from other Apple devices. The problem seems confined to my Mac Book Pro.
Ant ideas?

Hi and thanks again for trying to help.
Definitely works ok from pc.
Have deleted and re-established account a few times now but still the same.
I have actually given up and added gmail account which is working fine.
Sends and receives no problem.
Bloody bigpond....
We are not remote at all. Sitting in the fantastic Pavilion Hotel in Phnom Penh. Another couple here having trouble but not bigpond. Hotel staff have tried to help but to no avail.
Giving up and stick with gmail until we get home then start trying to get resolution.
Problem actually existed on a personal wi fi network in Melbourne before we left so I should have tried to resolve it then.
Thanks again for suggestions.

Hi,
Since upgrading my ipad and iphone software i am receiving an error message when sending emails, saying that the email address was rejected by the server.
Please advise if this is a known problem, and what is the fix.
Many thanks

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

I get the following message when sending emails: The recipient "email address" was rejected by the server". If I send the email to 3 people, one will be rejected and a different person will be rejected. Any ideas?

When I try to send e-mail I get an error message stating that the e-mail address was rejected by the server. When I send to e-mail from another address, I get back an error saying the e-mail address is unknown. My e-mail has worked fine for years until yesterday. HELP!

The specific text of the error message is very important here — I'm not sure exactly you're encountering here.
If you're able to connect to your email server and are able send email to other email addresses and if the failures are specific to one email recipient address, then please contact the intended recipient of the failing email, and confirm their address is valid. (This is the way I'm reading your question.)
If you are unable to send any email to any other email addresses and this is specific to your email address, then try the web mail client interface (if one is available) to verify your login user and password, and check with your email ISP for assistance. If your email password works via web mail, follow this Apple troubleshooting guide, then — if everything else fails — I'd probably then entirely remove the email account from Mail.app and re-add it per your email ISP's particular setup requirements. (Some issue with the setup or maybe a corrupt setting in OS X or a problem at the mail ISP servers is a common problem, but this effects attempts to send to all email addresses via that account.)
An email account setup is specific to an email provider, unfortunately. If you're using one of the more common email ISPs, then there are usually setup guides and frequently-asked questions posted online.

Iphone 4S- getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", any one a suggestion?

I have tried everything from reading different online suggestions (that is going into setting-mail, contacts, etc. and look at outgoing server and making sure setting is correct...) and still getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", I have tried resetting network and also hard reboot. Nothing seems to work and would greatly appreciate any new suggestion?
Thank you.

It could be a typo in the 'return adress' field, a setup problem by the sender of the email. Unless you can reply to the same email sometimes successfully. Have a look at the actual address you are trying to send to, often he errors are obvious.

When I try to reply to an e-mail, Iget the message that the recipents e-mail address was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How do I fix this?

Try this. Sometimes this is all that you need to do to fix that issue. Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

I updated to 5.0 today and now when I try to email from my phone, I am thwarted by the pop-up, "cannot send mail. a copy has been placed in my outbox. the recipient (email address) was rejected by the server. I need help, please.

A copy has been placed in your Out Box. The recipient (enter email here) was rejected by the server.
This happens with my business address. Receiving works.... sending doesn't.
My SBC Global address on this same phone is fine...receiving and sending.
What to do? I'm stressed.

Hi,
I had the same issue on my iPhone 5S. My internet/email provider told me to uncheck (turn off) USE SSL under Mail settings, and it worked perfectly for me.

Verify you have the correct user name and password in Mail, Contacts, and Calendars
Also check to make sure you have your username entered into your outgoing server option.
Mail, Contacts, Calanders > Email Account > Account > SMTP > Primary Server > Verify your username and password are entered in here.
