Hi Zap...
I totally deleted this mail account and gave up and let the problem sit a week, and last night I was bored on the couch and decided to give it a go and believe i found the problem, at least on my end, and am wondering if it is yours as well...
In your POP account, go into it and check what the authentication settings (push the advanced button on the account's settings in settings) set it to whatever it needs to be on your end (on my end it is 'Password')...then go into the actual mail program and try receiving something...then I want you to go back into the mail account's settings again and check the authentication again - has it changed from what you set it as?

  • Can send but can't receive email through ATT POP account

    My ISP is ATT. Email is through a POP account. I've verified all the settings through the ATT support page and been on the phone with an ATT Mac (dubious) tech. I'm able to send but not receive email. I get no errors when I check mail. It just appears that there's nothing new. I am able to receive through web mail. I deleted my cache as suggested by another user. Any thoughts? Thanks very much.

    Hi QCKaren, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Feel free to start a new topic to attract more helpers to your particular situation, here's a link if as is often the case, it's hard to find out where to do it...

    ISP tells me I will lose messages in all mailboxes - but does this mean all mailboxes that are stored "locally on my macintosh" or just the mail in the inbox, sent and trash associated with that account?
    Yes, if it's a POP account all will be lost.
    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.

  • Can't send emails via my pop account.

    My iPhone can receive emails from my pop account but not send them. It can send and receive gmail fine. Have checked the smpte and pop info. Wifi is working OK.

    Many ISP mail servers are restricted and will not permit mail to be sent that originates from outside their network (which the cellular data network is).
    Check with the mail provider to see if you need to use a different SMTP server when using a mobile device.

  • Can't receive emails on 2nd POP/SMTP account on iPad 2

    My pop/smtp email account is the default account on my iPad and I added 2nd account for my wife.
    I have created the account in settings and all appears to be fine, I compared all the settings to my working account and they are identical.
    I can see the account in Mail, I have them titled as "Rich's email" and Caroline's email" and I can send from the account it just won't receive any emails, it checks for mail for quite sometime then I eventally get a message that says "Cannot Gel Mail, the server is not responding verify you have entered the correct account info in mail settings" Which I have done several times and I know it's correct.
    I'm completely baffled any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello Holgerfragtnach,
    It sounds like your Mail application can send emails but cannot get any new emails that come to your address. I recommend these steps from the article named:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Mail
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4002
    If you can't receive mail in OS X Mail
    Locate the name of your iCloud account on the left side of the main Mail window. If your iCloud account name is dimmed and has a lightning-bolt symbol next to it, your account is offline. To bring your account online, make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet, then choose Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online. If that doesn't resolve the issue, follow these steps:
    Choose Preferences from the Mail menu.
    Click Accounts in the Preferences window.
    Select your iCloud account from the list of accounts.
    Click the Advanced tab and verify these settings:
    Port: 993
    Use SSL: (selected)
    Authentication: either "Password" or "Apple Token"
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Can't erase email on my POP account

    Try as I might, I can not delete or trash emails  or see a list of  sent mail.  This is a POP account and I have the same issues on an iPhone 3gs.

    When you have mail on your screen, before you try to open mail from your yahoo account, if you click window and connection doctor, for your yahoo accout, does it say 'connection and login to server successful' with a green status? Same for smtp outbound mail?

  • Can not receive emails from third party email accounts

    Recently I started working for a small business which has small business server 2011 and exchange 2010 installed. Before I started there were eight user accounts and they all have unlimited email access. I created a few users through sbs AD and also from
    exchange console a week ago. Unfortunately none of them can not receive emails from third party accounts. they all can receive internal emails and also can send mails to any email accounts internally and externally. 
    This is a night mare for me as new users are having trouble with communicating via mails. I have tried all the methods and now thought of posting this issue on tech net. Please help me on this!!
    Thanks a lot!!

    Checklist for testing inbound email problems, I am assuming outbound emails works ok.
    1. Check Port 25 forwarding on all modems routers/firewalls
    2. MX Record is created and pointing to the correct Public IP Address, use MXToolbox.com to verify MX Record and test SMTP flow. Also Verify your public IP has not changed, use whatsmyip.org to check you public IP
    3. If using POP Connector Service, make sure POP accounts are created properly
    4. If using a 3rd party spam host, make sure they forward email to correct public IP address, use step 2 to verify your public IP.

  • Can't receive email using 10.3.9 and mail 1.3.11 (v622/623)

    I can send but not receive email from my POP account using cable modem.
    All settings appear correct. When I select "get mail," there are no warnings or dialog boxes and "fetching mail" and "traversing mail heirarchy" messages all seem to happen as before but then no mail appears. My wife can receive and send with her account on "her computer" setup (seperate user on this computer). I have checked all the mail help tips, compared settings with my wife's setup, deleted the suggested (on this discussion board) file that holds the downloaded mail data and emptied the trash, pinged (all ok), and checked the keychain (verified correct).
    If I change to my .mac mail account, "get mail" works fine.
    No problem accessing the faulty account via web mail.
    Any other tips??

    Your answer looks like it would work for me, but I wanted to know where you got the info. I want to be sure I do the right thing. Can you tell me where you found that out? Or is what you said in this post everything I need to know?
    I'm periodically having the same problem downloading mail. I used to think it was MSN not working, but now I've noticed that when it happens MSN Messenger is operating and saying I have mail, (and I can access it via Safari on the hotmail site) but Mail 1.3.11 won't stay online, saying a read error of some sort when I try to get my mail. This used to happen only occasionally but is increasing to many times every day.

  • Can't receive email .MAC, IMAP or POP

    My receive email stopped working, all of a sudden. I have checked all the setup parameters, and they are right. I even tried to create duplicate accounts, one for .MAC, one for IMAP, and one for POP. They all fail to receive email from my @mac.com email account. Web mail works fine, and I can send email to myself from my mac.com email, or my sbcglobal.net email, but it only shows up in web mail not in the mail client.
    Befuddled

    "What does "stopped working" mean? "
    Thank you for the reply, stopped working means tht I can't receive email. Turns out, that this morning, after 24 hours, it started working agiain. I tried everything yesterday to receive email, and nothing would work, including deleting the account on the client and reentering it. Today, I tried entering it again, and wonderful of wonderfuls, it works fine. My only guess, is tht whatever server my mail is on, wouldn't connect.
    Oh, well, thanks,
    Tom

    Do you have one, two or more entries in the left colum of Mail.app for your mail server(s)?  That is, do you have your Mail.app set up with either a btinternet entry, with a btyahoo entry, or both?  Or more?
    I'm guessing that you might have one account (btyahoo?) listed for incoming (IMAP server) mail, and with the outbound (SMTP server) mail is configured and named btinternet.
    Based on what little I see posted, it looks like BT uses both btinternet and btyahoo, but I'm not exactly clear on how they have their stuff set up, and their web set gets helpful and tries to help configure my mail — I don't immediately see a single web page with the mail server set-up details.  The BT email client set-up starts here.

    I can not send email from my iPad .  Have been using it for over a year, all of a sudden I can only receive email.  I have a wifi connection in my home and have a A T &T cellular data plan?

    I have a 1st gen iPhone that I just updated the software to 2.0.2
    Now whenever I press the mail icon it goes to the mail app for about 4 seconds, does nothing, no loading of folders, old messages, nothing.
    Then it reverts back to the home screen. Tried restarting, haven't tried restoring, thought I'd look here first.
    Anyone???

  • Can't receive email all of a sudden

    Hi
    I have had my iMac for a year now. I'm using system 10.7.5. I have had no problems with it at all until now. About a month ago I suddenly stopped receiving emails in one of my accounts. All the others worked fine. I didn't make any changes to it at all. All of sudden, when I clicked on the Send and Receive Mail button, the little wheel just turned and turned to the right of the email account and nothing happened. I called my ISP who told me everything was working fine on their side. They did notice that the account was logging in to pull mail, but it wasn't logging out again. They told me it was an issue on my side.
    I deleted the account and re-added it and it made a difference for about 10 minutes and then stopped working again. I went as far as deleting that email account off of my server as well and creating a new one for myself, putting a forward on the old one so I wouldn't miss out on any emails. This worked for about 2 weeks and I thought it was fixed. Now, all of a sudden, I can't receive emails again. I seem to be able to send emails just fine from the offending account.
    I receive them without any issues on my blackberry so it isn't my ISP. The problem is with my mac. I took all my accounts offline and back online 10 seconds later and still nothing changed. Now and then it will suddenly work but I will get ALL the same emails that I have been receiving over the last few weeks and NOTHING new. It's very odd to me but I'm really hoping someone will recognise this issue and be able to shed some light on the subject. I can't keep answering emails off of my blackberry so I need to fix this and I'm completely stumped.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Shut down the app and then Reset...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
    - Press the red to delete the Calendar app from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    - Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    - Restart Calendar
