  • User can receive email but cannot send

    Hi,
    I'm migrating a domain in an organization to another new domain. Now, we are migrating the workstations to the new domain. Users are not migrated, they are completely new in the new domain.
    So, the problem is that we have a workstation in the new domain and the user from new domain logged on on this machine. The user has successfully configured is old exchange account in Outlook (Exchange server is still in the old domain) and can receive email,
    but cannot send. 
    Can someone help please to find what is wrong?

    Hi Silva,
    Thank you for your question.
    Is there NDR when you send email?
    Which way outlook connect Exchange 2013?
    Where is email which was sent? “sent item” or “Draft”?
    Which user mailbox use when you configure profile? New domain user or old domain user?
    We could create a trust between new domain and old domain:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779840(WS.10).aspx
    We could ping old domain successfully on the new domain.
    If we have created mailbox for new domain user on old exchange, we could refer to the following link:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998031(v=exchg.150).aspx?f=255&mspperror=-2147217396
    In addition, we suggest we migrate user and Exchange to new domain as soon as possible.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
    Best Regard,
    Jim

  • IMAP mail account is not receiving emails, but sending.

    I set up an IMAP mail account 2 years ago and was working properly. But a week or so ago it stopped receiving emails, but it sends out emails. I reentered my password, deleted and recreated the account but nothing changes. Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    I received email at 9:30 am then again at 11:35 EST (I am in SouthEastern PA)  Is your mailbox size anywhere near the limit?

  • I can receive emails but cannot send Why?

    I am a new user of ipad2 . I have finished setup and can receive emails but cannot send what do I need to change

    Go to Settings > Mail, contacts, Calendars > your mail account > and see what it shows for Outgoing Mail Server.  Does it have a name for the SMTP server such as outgoing.isp name.net?  If you tap that outgoing server, go to the page that has Outgoing Mail Server and lists the server name, user name, password...is there a password indicated, does it say Use SSL, and does it give a Port number?

    If you have American Express, your 4-digit security code is on the front. If you have VISA or MasterCard, your 3-digit security code is outside the signature block on the back of your credit card. It happens to me also.

  • Not receiving emails, but can send them on desktop; but can do both on iPhone.

    Ok, I have spent since a day or so since the first of this month trying to solve this issue.  I use Hostgator, which shouldn't be an issue, but it seems to be. I have on my phone all my emails that are being hosted by hostgator set up as fetch, and it recieves my emails fine. My desktop though, can't.  It can see the servers, and send emails, but it can't do anything but.  It can't even download the emails I sent to myself, but when I go on web mail I can see them all.
    My connection to the server is good:
    But for some reason I can't recieve any emails from the IMAP server.
    I put the computer is Safe Mode, and I could recieve the emails, but when I put it in normal mode, the emails don't download. I use Avast! Anti-Virus, I use SugarSync, I use Splashtop, And Free Memory Pro.
    For web browsers, I use Crome, and Safari.
    I use Apple Mail and Postbox, both can't recieve emails.
    I can't imagine what is keeping my computer from downloading from the server. 
    Can someone help please?

    I have not seen that review before and the only thing I take issue with is
    the authors of Clam AV for Mac, apparently do not understand these concepts. Both the admin and limited user can only scan files w/in "<user name>/documents". 99% of the files on a Mac are outside of "/users/<admin>,<other user>/documents. What good is a antivirus scan, that has no access?
    There is only one author and I can assure you that he fully understands the permission issues involved. He is committed to follow Apple security guidelines in this matter which say that even an admin user should not be able to see files and folders belonging to other users without their explicit permission. I realize that there is a lot of software that ignore this rule, including virtually all other A-V software vendors, but I don't think he will ever budge on that subject. I'm sure this same limitation applies to any other A-V software downloaded from the AppStore.
    ClamXav will scan any file or folder that the current user has read access to. For an admin user this is by far the majority of the files on the hard drive, not the 1% indicated by the reviewer. For a limited user, that would be reduced to only files that are owned by that user and any other files readable by "everybody".
    I realize that it has widely been suggested that users not routinely operate with admin rights, but I'm guessing the number of users that are actually practicing that are minimal. Novice users won't see that guidance and most of those that do won't be able to figure out how to accomplish that. Experienced users may give it a try, but quickly get tired of switching back and forth to do their admin duties. To me one of those admin duties would be to run ClamXav periodically to pick up anything that may have slipped by, especially when there is more than one user using the computer. Each of those other users should also be using ClamXav to inspect their own files. Of course a limited use user can use an admin userid and password if they know it to do installations, etc., so it is possible to slip something by.
    In the case of the web site version of ClamXav, a limited user can run Sentry to watch all of the entry points to the computer, including the download folder, e-mail and any external drives he has access to. That should detect any currently known malware, including Windows, before it becomes an issue.
    Lastly, as far as I have been able to determine, all the ClamAV® signatures are for malware that would be readable to an admin user and most by a limited use user. It would be a waste of time to look into the unreadable portions of the System (mostly the Unix sub-system) since there is no currently known malware that would exist there.
    What bothers me is that it won't look at files beyond ownership? I know it sounds odd, but I do deal with some form of internet esponage at times due to the type of company I am working on building.
    Again, you will be able to examine any files readable by you, any group you belong to or "everybody" as long as they are enclosed in a directory (folder) that you can access. Here's an example of a full hard drive scan I did just the other day as a test:
    Scanned directories: 192387
    Scanned files: 914610
    Total errors: 692
    The "errors" are almost certainly files I did not have read access to as an admin so I was able to scan 99.9% of the files I had access to.
    Disk Utility tells me I have 1,150,506 files at the moment, so I scanned about 79.5% of them.

  • My Mac is not receiving emails, but my iPhone receives emails. How can I fix this?

    I have a MacBook Pro Retina with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. I recently tried to send a large file through the iCloud email drop. The email stayed in my outbox for a day and made my email app extremely slow. The email never sent, so I deleted the email from my outbox and restarted the program. Now, my email is no longer receiving any emails. The same email account on my iPhone receives emails, but my Mac email program will not receive emails. I've restarted the program and the Mac, but nothing has resolved the problem. Any suggestions???

  • Not receiving emails from specific sender

    I have tried many times to receive emails from one sender, both automated and support ones, but none appear in my inbox. Is there any way that this sender can have been blocked without me doing anything?
    (ps: I already checked "rules" under mail preferences, and there is none)
    Message was edited by: victor jahr

    I have junk folder disabled, and I even created a rule now that is supposed to redirect any mails from the sender to my inbox, but still no luck
    By the way, the sender I'm not receiving emails from is called Jagex, a games company.

  • I receive email but cannot send, even acess email settings

    Hi,
    My ipad was working very well, but after i update to IOS 5, my email stopped to send, when i start to put the name of recipient the screen disappears, even when i go to settings -> mails, is the same. But i still receiving my emails.
    Anyone is having the same problem? I already reset my ipad but didnt work.
    Thanks

    I described here this problem and solution some time ago. Next time, just search the topic. Anyway, you have just to restore your iOS and then add a new iPad (not the existing one) when iTunes will ask you at the end of the whole process. Before you'll restore your iPad, better make a backup. That's all.

  • Not receiving emails from one sender

  • Gmail on iPhone4: can receive email but cannot send email

    I am using a brand new iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1. I can receive emails from Gmail without any problems, but when trying to send emails I get the error message "the connection to the outgoing server 'smtp.gmail.com' failed. Additional outgoing mail servers can be configured in settings..."
    After spending many (!!!) hours on this, I suspect it comes down to one setting in "mail, contacts, calendar", then gmail account information > outgoing mail server > smto.gmail.com; authentication is preset on "MD5 Challenge". This text is grey and cannot be altered. I assume the setting must be "password" instead, but how the *** can I change this?
    Desperate. Please enlighten me!
    Merry Christmas!

    I solved my problem.  Thanks razmee209 for your response. 

  • Mail not receiving emails but sending them ok. It says updated at 11:28 but that was six hours ago and it won't update.

    my Mail is not receiving on my iPad but is sending fine.  Emails are sent and received fine on my iPhone and when accessing the account directly through safari.  It says updated at 11:28 but that was six hours ago and it is stuck there.
    i have tried restarting multiple times  with no luck.

    Have you tried signing out of your Mail account and then back in again?

    Hi mike 1234567,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're not able to send email from your Mac after updating to OS X Yosemite.
    I recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in the section of this article called "Mail Connection Doctor shows one or more red dots in the account Status column:"

    This article contains a variety of steps that can help resolve an issue like the one you're seeing.
