I can't send emails but can receive them

Hi can anyone tell me how to set up iPad to send emails? I can receive them but can't send any except public emails account

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

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.

My iPad stopped sending emails but will receive them. The error message says password or username is incorrect. It is the same as all my other devices. Can anyone help?

My IPad cannot send email although they are received okay. This stopped when I changed my password. I have deleted the account and resubmitted it 4 times and the results are the same. I have the same username and password on my iPod, cell phone and PC and they all work correctly. Can anyone assist?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

My ipad will not send email but will receive them

My ipad will receive emails, but not send them. I have checked settings and everything seems to be ok. I have deleted email account and reinstalled but no luck.

both on wifi and 3g ?
smtp require some ports to be open out to the Internet if wifi router or isp carrier block those then you can't send mails

Apple Mail- won't let me send emails but is receiving them ok

When I try to send out they just go to the outbox and i get an error message,
anybody else had this problem? [mail version 2.1.3] thanks

Hi BD Aqua, yeah it's okay just a false alarm, i changed my internet service provider to BE broadband a few days ago and they didn't tell me that i had to change the outgoing mail server smtp settings in order for emails to go out, something to do with dynamic ip address, and how they block port 25 for dynamic users? or something. anyway, entered the new settings and all seems tickity boo now.

Can send email but cannot receive on exchange account

My .mac account, gmail account, and yahoo account work flawlessly on my iphone. My work account, however, does not. My employer has his iphone working fine and my settings are the same but for some reason I can't receive email. I have no problem sending email from the account with the iphone, only receiving. Anyone have any ideas?
I have tried setting it up via the "exchange" option (entering mail servers, login, and password) and get the following:
1. Cannot connect using SSL (I proceed without it)
2. Cannot get mail. The user name or password is incorrect. IMAP support must be enabled. (which it is because my employer connects without issue).
3. I save the account despite the warnings and can send email but not receive.

I am having the same problem with both my work and Yahoo accounts. At least to the work account I am positive that the settings are the same as a co-worker using an iTouch to access his email. I have re-entered the settings a minimum of 10 times and the IT department has tried no less than 5 times. The error message remains the same. I could understand incorrectly entering the settings once or twice, but not separate people entering it 15 times. There is something else wrong with the iPhone software.

Hello CWNI,
Check out this KB article, it should help you

Hope that helps!
More than likely, you use outlook or similar application on your computer for email and it is just not leaving a copy of the message on the mail server.

I can send email but not receive on my iphone 3GS. Emails to my .me address are OK but not emails to the address hosted by Network Solutions. NS have checked my settings twice. I am using IMAP. Is this a problem with iCloud?

I use IMAP email hosted by Network Solutions for my main email address. I can send and receive this OK in my Mac Mail on my MAC book and also on webmail. However my iphone doesn't receive these emails but it can send. I have checked settings on my iphone twice with Network Solutions but no luck. Emails addressed to my .me address are received OK. I have a suspicion this problem started when I signed up to icloud.
my ISP is BTconnect
Any ideas?

Useful suggestions. In fact I had already deleted and re-entered the account details a few days ago without apparent success. The error message was along the lines of "cannot access the server".
Anyway about an hour after your message, my emails started coming through after a 6 month gap! - makes me think someone at Network Solutions monitors these discussions.
Many thanks

Can send emails but cannot receive!

I had a blackberry curve 8520 for 9 months with no problems with my emails. My hotmail synced successfully.
Last week I got a new curve 8520 because my original had battery problems and could not be fixed.
I added my email onto the new phone same way as before (same sim etc) but now i can only send emails, i can not recieve them at all. Im not sure what has changed between the two phones that has caused this problem.
Please help!

I can send email but cannot receive it since updating to Mavericks

Since updating to Mavericks on my Imac & MacBook I cannot receive email in Mac’s Mail - I can however send email.
In connection Doctor I am getting the green dot saying my SMTP (outgoing) is working just fine and I am getting a red dot saying my POP (incoming) is not working.
I know the settings are just fine! as Mail works perfectly in my iPhone and I can both send and receive email. I have tried resetting a hundred times to no avail. I am on own VPS server with Names Co (in the UK).
What I do know:
1) My email settings are correct - despite mail saying it cannot connect to the server becuase of number of issues such as timeout or wrong password or wrong settings ( I get various answers in connection doctor and system preferences/accounts)
2) My VPS server and website is just fine.
3) My ISP is up and running fine and does not block any ports.
What I have tried doing:
1) Changed passwords - all work fine in my iphone.
2) Tried activating and deactivating my account.
3) Tried using SSL Port with password on and off - tried the other ports.
Help is greatly appreciated

Hi sturmherr
I am using defualt ports 25, 465, 587 for outgoing
and SMTP 995 for incoming using SSL with password (have tried without)
These are the settings that I used to use and it all worked fine and is still working fine in my iphone.
I have tried all the outgoing ports.
Do you have any other suggestions?

I can send iMessages but cannot receive them?

I can send Imessages to my friends with iphones but when I receive them they come in as texts. When I asked my friends they were sending me imessages but i was getting them as texts. This happened with multiple friends. What is wrong with my phone?

Try turning Imessage off, and use it like that. It won't have all the capabilties but it still should work.

How to send email but not receive it

Hi,
I have 2 email addresses, one for work, and one for other. I like my work email to be forwarded to my Gmail because it archives all of my messages. But in Mac Mail I want to send email from both accounts and only receive from my gmail. Currently I receive duplicate messages on every message because it gets mail from both places and if its a message to my work email, since its forwarded I get it twice.
I already checked, do not check this mailbox when automatically checking for updates, and that works some of the time, but if I need to hit the Get Mail button, it gets mail from that, and I go from 7 messages to 850.
So is there way to be able to have an email address just to send from and not get mail from?

what you describe is strange. how exactly do you forward messages from the work account to gmail? if you do it on the server then there should be no duplicates and your work mailbox on the server should be simply empty.
to send from two accounts yopu can try the following. delete the work account in Mail (that will delete all maiboxes associated with it). then add your work email address separated by command to your gmail address in mail preferences->accounts. also add the smtp server for that address to the list of smtp servers. you'll have to manually choose the "from' address and the smtp server when you send mail but it might work if your work smtp server doesn't complain (it might).
