Sometimes when sending a mail it will go more often it won't go, it doesn't seem to be relevant  to my geographic position and the message" a copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address" my email blah blah" was rejected by the server"     . Any ideas?

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.

  • Cannot send email via AOL on iPad2 - "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."

    My CEO has an ipad2 and I set it up w/ AOL.  She cannot send any email via her AOL account from her iPad.  She gets a message that says "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."   We've tried it on wifi and on 3G (Verizon version).  I've removed the account and added it, I've tried setting it up as an IMAP account vs. using Apples standard AOL mail setting and nothing seems to work.  The SMTP settings are smtp.aol.com, port 587.  I've tried adding an alternate server/smtp, but I haven't been able to find anything that works.  Any advice or other people having this issue?  It works fine sending an email from her aol web mail.  And unfortunately, having her sign up for a gmail account is not an option.  Thanks

    Interesting.  Firstly I have been on AOL since the early 90s with no current intention to switch as my primary personal email account.
    I have two email accounts on my iphone - AOL and my email from my business website.  I deleted both and then recreated first the business account and then the AOL account.  Same error.  Then I wasn't sure what you suggested but I turned off the AOL SMTP server and selected the business email SMTP server by turning it on with the same result.  I still get the error "A Copy has been placed in your Outbox.  Sending the mssage content to the server failed."
    Perhaps this problem will get fixed by IOS 6.   AOL will not talk to me unless I pay and Apple says its not their problem.  So for the time being I use the AOL web interface in the iPhone's Safari to send emails from the phone.

  • TS3899 Tried all the tips on line. Every time I try to send an e-mail, it gives me this message, "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed" Any help in how to resolve would be appreciated

    I went through all the steps to try to resolve getting the message in a box every time i try to send an e-mail. What next ?
    Message is " A copy has been placed in your
                        Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My internet works fine as I can send e-mails from my Yahoo account on my MAC no problem.
    Address is fine etc.

    How long has it been going on? I've had my yahoo mess up and if i wait a bit it resolves itself. Yahoo is doing something with their servers and it messes with your mail if your mail happens to be on one of those servers.

  • Sending email error with Yahoo: "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."

    HELP!  Why am I getting this error message? It's driving me crazy! When I try to send an email,  the message stalls in the outbox and the following message pops up -  "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed." I have deleted and reinstalled the account, restarted the phone, etc - what the heck? The emails work just fine at Yahoo online, so the account it fine...I don't want to hard reset the phone, as I had to do that recently and it's a pain - any suggestions?

    OR they are the right settings but you are trying to send through a different internet provider or 3G provider, that does not allow that SMTP server to send email.
    if I send email from 3g or someone elses wifi on a different ISP, it will not work, because it does not allow that server to be contacted. this is normal.
    What you want to do is setup a gmail account and use their SMTP server settings for the defauly outgoing server. that way you dont have to worry about this.

  • I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How can I fix this error so I can send emails.

    The issue definitely sounds like your Outgoing/SMTP settings need to be changed.  Simply set them to the proper settings for your provider as was suggested above.
    I found this link for Knology:  http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
    The SMTP settings can be edited on the iPad/iPhone by going to Settings--> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, edit the account having trouble, click the Account, then at the bottom is the SMTP server info, click on it to edit it further.
    It should allow you to edit the primary smtp server and let you enter all the good stuff as you see in the Knology link above.
    Some providers require you to register your account on their service like AT&T.

  • Trying to send e-mail and error message " a copy has been placed in your outbox. the sender address was rejected by the server"

    trying to send e-mail and error message " a copy has been placed in your outbox. the sender address was rejected by the server"

    i have the same problem with my 3gs and tried to add my email acc+pass in the outgoing server but it got rejected.
    just bin on the phone(45min) with my carrier support about this issue they are pretty much scratching there head, the settings i should use gets verified with no problems when i add the outgoung server, but still cant send mails.

  • A copy has been placed in your outbox. sending the message content to the server failed

    all of the sudden my phone wont send emial but will receive them. I have tried everything suggested as far as turn on/off, delete acct and set it up again and nothing seems to be working. Can someone help me please?? the error message i receive is "a copy has been placed in your outbox. sending the message content to the server failed"

    I think what happened to me was that my yahoo account was compromised by http://thenextweb.com/insider/2013/01/07/yahoo-mail-users-hit-by-widespread-hack ing-xss-exploit-seemingly-to-blame/
    Yahoo responds to these reports at the end saying they fixed the issue.  I think what that my mobile yahoo mail was somehow blocked by yahoo because that was the device that i logged into right before (the hacker) blasted all of my inbox.  That is the only thing I can think of.  Exactly 24 hours later I was able to send email.  I did figure out that for the iPhone 4gs you can go into your settings and yahoo mail and change the outgoing server from yahoo to gmail if you have gmail set up on your phone and that will allow you to send from yahoo through gmail.  I also sent a feedback form to yahoo, that is the only way to contact them, and have heard nothing.  There is nothing about this on their support site.  So let us know if after 24 hrs you are magically able to send.   Yahoo really should use that log in history where they can see that a log in has occurred from a strange IP to block that and warn the user.   My log in history right before this happened went:  home IP in the US, home IP, homeIP, home IP, Morroco, home IP, home IP, etc.    So it is blatantly obvious.  My little software company can block IP's, I know yahoo can.

    I have a Canon MX882 printer and more often than note get an error message that says "Printer not Connected." When I check the printer itself, I get confirmation that the access point is connected. I tried reloading the software and that seemed to have solved the problem for awhile but I'm experiencing the same problem. Any ideas what is causing this?

    Did you delete all receipts with iDVD in the file name  with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder before installing the new copy?  If not then do so and delete the new application also.

  • A copy has been placed in our outbox.  Sending the message content to the server failed

    I go from "The recipient was rejected by the server becasue it does not allow relaying" to "saving email to outbox because content to the server failed" when i try sending email out of AOL.  I tried all the suggested fixes. AOL had me add a server cwmx.com using port 587 and turning off my wifi, that did not work.  I tried adding a new server with stmp.aol.com and adding my username without the @aol.com with no luck.  I have spent hours trying to figure this out, been working with AOL and Apple with no luck. 
    I didn't have problems until i was told to restore my phone to factory settings because of a software issue i was having, it has been almost a week now does anyone have any recommedations to fix this?

    Been going on for any of my AOL accounts for about 2 months.  Started on iphone 4 w. ios5 and continued to ios6 and now iphone 5.  no diff.  Have even trying reinitializing iphone 4 and just setting up one aol account.  no help.  Gone through all the permutations I can think of.  Does not happen for my non-AOL accounts.  Apple blames it on AOL and AOL won't help without getting paid.
