HT1277 I can't seem to receive any incoming mail from my pop account why is this?

In the past couple of days I have been unable to recieve any incoming mail, but I'm able to send emails out! There is nothing wrong with my actual server, so I'm not sure what is wrong with my mac.

I'm thinking this is an authentication or port issue. Is this how you set it up?

The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995
SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

Mail will not receive any incoming mail from either of my 5 accounts

I have not been able to receive mail to my leopard mail.app for quite some time now... which is odd, as I can easily receive mail to my iphone on all the same accounts.
I thought at one point it was pgp, but now when I have completely re-installed leopard and manually moved mailboxes over, I still have same problem.
Anybody out there with a similar problem, solution?
Thanks

Thank you!
Well that is exactly it, nothing happened... when using connection doctor, it would say something like 'cannot connect to server' or something other, which is odd, since I have had this setup running for ages on all accounts nothing was new.
I could send at times with a long delay, but had not been able to pull down messages for good 2 weeks, and prior to that, it seemed that on some networks I could pull down, but on others I could not. (taking into consideration that I am travelling all the time, and use probably 20 different wifi's pr week)
Anyhows, after browsing the net most of today without finding much of anything, I just figured that my mail folder must just be a tad bloated (well I had more than 16000 sent messages). So I moved all my sent messages to a seperate folder, and deleted all my mail accounts, but kept my mail in folders.
Did a new setup of so far 2 of the email addresses, and they are running fine.
But can mail actually get too bloated, what is the limit?
Thanks again.

Try going to Mail/Preferences/Accounts/iCloud/Advanced and setting Authentication to Apple Token.

Can't get new Mail from my Pop-Account...

Hello,
I have a problem with Mail, as I can perfectly send but not receive Mails from my Pop-Account. The settings are fine and the problem came up suddenly. When I try to get mail from Pop-Account the application starts to load, shows the number of mails in the account, begins to count up the size and then stops. I can even see the title of the mails by opening the window of the Account, but Mail does not download them.
I would be really pleased if anybody could give me an advice what to do.
Thanks a lot an greeting from a German in Bahrain
Jan

Hello and thanks to both of you,
I am using Mail 3.1 and the Account is coming from Strato, a German provider. Before, I had no problems neither with receiving nor with sending, but suddenly it stoped. I tried another account (gmail) that worked without any problem. Also your advice with SSl and the ports did not help . I Also phoned the Helpline of the provider Strato without any result . Also the place does not change - it neither works at home nor at work.

Receiving multiple e-mails from another .Mac account

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this, but my fiance and I usually e-mail each-other back and forth throughout the course of the day. I, via my .Mac account on my iPhone and her, through the .Mac webmail.
The last few days, however, I've been receiving duplicate e-mail from her on my iPhone. It started out a few days ago with just one or maybe two duplicated in my inbox, but today I just received SEVEN copies of the same e-mail. She, on the other hand, is not experiencing the duplicate e-mail which leads me to believe that this is an iPhone related issue.
If its of importance, we're on a "Family Pack" .Mac account and it doesn't seem to make a difference if I'm connected via WIFI or simply EDGE.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Perhaps much more detail would help?
Could you ever send e-mail from the iphone?
Can you send e-mail from the same account on your computer?
When you try to send e-mail from iphone to you get an error message?
What is the message?
Do you have a connection to the internet (edge, 3g, wi-fi)?

Open any type of attachment in mail from a POP account

When I receive any type of attachment in email (pop account) the attachment shows up as a "winmail.dat" Why is it not showing up as PDF, xls or doc etc...?
Iphone 1.1.3 16g
I would like to be able to open any type of attachments that come into my email.
Thanks

This is a Microslop proprietary problem/bug when the sender of a message uses Outlook as their email client and uses RTF for message composition, and especially when sent thru an Exchange Server.
http://www.pchell.com/support/winmaildat.shtml
Funny that Microslop names this document - "How to prevent the Winmail.dat file from being sent to Internet Users" as if those not using Outlook as their email client and not thru an exchange server are from another planet or something. This is MS proprietary garbage they have known about for a very long time but refuse to do anything about.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q138053/
Long story short, as your Outlook using friends to compose all messages sent to you in Plain Text (preferably) or HTML. Not RTF.

Why do I not have mail sent from Outlook on my iPhone 4 while I receive any incoming mail on both?

When I create a message on iPhone4 and send it, it also shows up in Outlook 2007. When I receive messages in either place they appear on the phone as well as in Outlook. When I send a message from Outlook 2007 it does not appear on my iPhoine 4. Any idea why? I am synced to with Outlook Mail in Itunes and I have selected Itunes mail add in from the Trusted Add ins.
Thank you

Hi Justin,
POP3 only downloads messages from the inbox - It won't be able to get messages stored on the server in other folders. If you want this sort of access you need an IMAP account.
It sounds like Mail is working exactly as it should.
http://www.imap.org/imap.vs.pop.brief.html or a Google search for IMAP vs POP should explain the differences better.
Hope this helps.

I cannot send any e-mails from my AOL account

on my Iphone. I have spoken to Apple and they told me to contact AOL. I tried resetting my networks, restarting my phone, and deleting the AOL account and re-adding it. I want to delete this account totally, but it is my apple id and I cannot make my me.com account my apple id. What should I do?

Is there a copy of the email you sent to your friend in the SENT folder? Did you receive a copy of it in your INBOX? You should if you have it set up to do that - Settings, Mail.... always Bcc myself.
Try sending another email to someone else eg., [email protected]

I can no longer send picture e-mails from my ipod. Why?

I use to be able to send pictures from the Photos app to my e-mail. Now when I try & send them, I never get them. I also tried sending them to the Facebook mail, but again- never get them. No error message pops up on my ipod. Any suggestions?

Oh my goodness! Thank you sooo much! This worked. I can now stop sending the business e-mails from my personal account - ha ha. Since you helped me with this, maybe you can help me with one more thing. I haven't been able to attach to e-mails in this account for quite awhile now, just been using a jump drive, since a previous automatic update. I didn't obsess over it due to the fact that I could still send e-mails. Any more help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
By the way, you also put it in terms I could understand. I'm not computer illiterate, just not as up to date as I should be. Step-by-steps help alot! :D

OSX Lion Mail Server Junk Mail Filter blocks incoming mail from any Yahoo address

I have yet to be able to use OSX Lion Mail Server's Junk Mail Filter. I have several contacts who use (free) Yahoo Mail addresses. Whenever I turn on Junk Mail Filter, even at the Most Cautious setting, any incoming mail from Yahoo.com addresses do not make it into my inbox. I was told last year by an Apple Enterprise Tech Support contact that "..we're still having problems with that Junk Mail Filter, sorry, just leave it off for now.." WTH In the meantime, the good news is I'm not missing any incoming e-mails; but, I'm having to sort through and delete a few hundred spam messages each day.
Suggestions? Thanks in advance

I agree with the points made by Strontium90. If you have any PCs then Apple's mail/contacts/calendar software is a poor choice. Kerio Connect as a mail/contacts/calendar server would not only support Macs but would also do a good job supporting PCs running Outlook.
If you are going to become a pure Apple site, then you could use just the Apple software and this would be cheaper than using Kerio. For 30 users this might be a suitable solution, however even in a pure Apple environment many people prefer Kerio. For example I find Kerio much more pleasent when dealing with email addresses across multiple domains, email aliases, email group addresses, and so on. Kerio also has built-in email archiving, that is keeping a record of all emails. Kerio also provides a web-browser client for accessing email, calendar and contacts. It is worth noting that as standard Mountain Lion Server no longer includes a webmail feature. While I personally find the Kerio webclient rather ugly it does work.
There are some annoyances I have with Kerio, firstly they have always charged a 'maintenance' fee for their software. This provided access to software updates, and in the past also provided access to Kerio technical support. Unfortunately they now only let you make two (2) support cases per year for that cost, and you now have to pay extra for any more cases. Also while they added support for EWS (Exchange Web Service) to allow using Outlook 2011 for Mac as a supported email client, they did a poor job of this so that it does not work properly with any other EWS compatible client. This means it will not work in EWS mode with Apple Mail, nor with Outlook for Windows. While there are other ways to connect these other clients, this seems a foolish move and there have been plenty of requests to fix this.
Apple's Mail client uses EWS to connect to a 'real' MS Exhange server.

Just Updated iPhone 3GS to iOS5, Can't receive any incoming calls at all

Hi, I just updated my phone to iOS5 and now, I'm having these troubles.
- Can't receive any incoming calls at all
- The incoming calls directly goes to voice mail greeting
- No incoming rings & no missed calls alerts
- Also noticed the incoming text with 4 to 5 hours delays
- Sometimes 3G network get lost
The reception (status bar) is good level, can make outgoing calls okay and can send text okay.
I did try reset the network setting and it seems working a few hours then went back to troubles (mentioned above).
I've done 3 or 4 times reset but none have been resolved yet.
Anyone having a same issues?
I have
iPhone 3GS with iOS5
Network with O2 UK
Thanks,

After reset "All network settings" a several times, it seems working but few hours later it 's been gone back to troubles again.
Is this related to iOS5 or O2?
I've contacted the network carrier several times but no-one yet get back to me.
Any ideas, please helps.

How can i lock my iphone in a way that i won't be able to receive any incoming call nor retreive its information?

How can i lock my iphone in a way that i won't be able to receive any incoming call nor retreive its information?

In the phrase " i wanna be able to reveive the call without being able to answer nor see who is calling" what do you mean by able to receive the call but not be able to answer it or see who is calling?
I do not understanhow you can receive the call but not be able to answer or seee who called. If you do not answer it how can you receive it?

Hi,
This is how App Store app shows now when an app is downloading. If you cannot download anything, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, remove your Apple ID, and set it again. That should work.
Hope that helps.
