Sent an email with a large attachment (27mb). It is stuck. No error messages. Can still receive mail (MobileMe) in IMac mail app. Just cannot send. Sent Mailbox shows a clock image at 1 o'clock.

    Hi Nuch1,
    I found an article that is contains very thorough Mail troubleshooting steps:
    OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276
    You can use that article to figure out what part of the email "ecosystem" is the cause of the issue, and it can also help you attempt to resolve it.
    Hope that helps,

  • After being away for two weeks my iMac wont send my Orange mail.

    After being away on holiday for two weeks my iMac wont send my Orange mail. I get the message "The server “smtp.wanadoo.co.uk” refused to allow a connection on the default ports."
    I have not changed any setting, the email sends if I login to Webmail, so the account itself is valid. The iMac mail downloads my email perfectly as normal. Using Mac OS X 10.6.8. Email address is one I have used for almost 10 years without any problems.
    It is a POP3 account using default ports with no authentication or SSL. Have tried different ports (e.g. 26), putting password authentication on, but nothing works.
    Any ideas?

    Fixed it. Played about with the port numbers and got a more detailed message:
    Client host blocked for spamming issues. OUK104_102 Ref http://csi.cloudmark.com/reset-request/?ip=nn.nn.nn.n. Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
    Went to Cloudmark and got the IP reset. Took an evening of work but worth it.

  • I just downloaded the new OS7 and now my e-mails are stuck in the outbox.  I've tried several ways to send, with no luck.  Help!

    Does the new IOS 8 and instagram only allow pictures taken with the phone? as I can still choose from those, just not the ones I upload/save.
    I don't know about instagram, but apps, that not yet have been upgraded to iOS8 can only access the photos that appear in the "Recently Added" album, because there is no longer a Camera Roll.
    As a work-around, try to create an album of the photos you want to share to instagram. For other apps this helped to make photos accesible.

  • Help with e-mail getting stuck in Mail outbox

    I recently ran into a problem where all the e-mails I tried to send in Mail got stuck in my outbox and were not sent.  After reading posts on the Apple Support Communities website and doing some troubleshooting of my own within Mail, I reached a solution to the problem. When I first realized I could not send e-mail using a certain e-mail account of mine, since all e-mails were getting stuck in the outbox folder, I checked my available servers.  I did this by opening the preferences window, clicking on the accounts tab, then clicking on the outgoing server pull-down menu.  In the pull-down, I saw that the server I wanted to use was listed as "offline."  To fix this problem and get the server back online so that I could send e-mail (as I could with my other account that was not listed as "offline"), I selected the outgoing server pull-down once again.  In the menu, I selected "edit server list."  On the page that pops up afterward, I highlighted the server I wanted to use.  This way, I could see the information associated with the server.  With this information in front of me, I realized that for some reason there was no password entered in the password field even though the "Authentication" setting was set to password.  I entered my password associated with the e-mail account I was having problems with and "walla."  The server was back online.  I could send e-mails again without them getting stuck in the outbox!
    This problem popped out all of a sudden for me and got me quite frustrated.  I hope that this brief walk-through helps out some people out there having a similar issue.  Best of luck!

    That's one of the best walkthrough's i've read, thankyou!
    However, I often have email stuck in the out box. And that's not comfortable… or good for communicating to clients.
    In the hope that this may help someone:
    Internet Connection Problem
    A bit random but I found that by keeping an eye on the networked computers or the Dropbox icon tells me the health of my network or the internet connection that's causing a problem and all of the time, it's the Ethernet.
    If networked computers are up and on the internet, but my PM isn't: 
    Solution:
    1) Refresh the DHCP license.
    2) Switch off the ethernet under system preferences/network then switch on again to refresh the IP addres.
    Every time I do this, I find Apple Mail reconnecting straight away. I don't know why this happens. 

  • Mails are stuck in the outbox after an offline period

    Hi!
    I am often writing e-mail while I'm offline, e.g. on planes, buses etc.
    Then when I get back online I kinda expect the Mail App to send these mails instantly. However it does not do that. The mails are stuck in the outbox for up to 15-20 minutes after I get back online. The e-mails I have received while being offline are downloaded instantly as they should be. And if I then write new e-mails after getting back online they just get stuck in the same queue together with the other stuck e-mails.
    Is there a fix for this? Do you experience the same? It is really annoying and making wonder if I should get another Mail App.
    I have just installed the new Yosemite and I was hoping it had fixed the problem. But it hasn't...
    I am working on a MacBook Pro 2013.
    Thanks!

    iOS does not run on MacBook Pros.
    Drag the message to Draft mailbox and ensure the recipient is correctly addressed and send.

  • Is it possible to get my email folders from my iMac mail tool up to my icloud account?

    Is it possible to get my email folders from my iMac mail tool up to my icloud account?
    I would like to access my mail tool folders while I am traveling overseas with my ipad.
    Alternately, is it possible to get my mail tool folders onto my ipad?
    imac:   Mac OS X  Version 10.7.5
    mail tool:  Version 5.3

    Your iCloud cannot access other accounts. You can set up the Mail app on your iPad to access other accounts just the same as on your Mac - the only issue might be with the ISP who provides your internet connection, as some services require you to be actually connected to them to send, and possibly even to receive though that would be more unusal.
    If any of your other accounts provide webmail you could use that.
    Otherwise you could set up forwarding on the other accounts so that messages are sent on to your iCloud account (I should set it to leave a copy on the original server) - however you cannot send using anything other than your iCloud email address as the 'From' address using iCloud outgoing server.
    As to existing messages, if the account is IMAP then the messages can be accessed from any device that signs into the account; if the account is POP then received messages live on your Mac. You can copy them up to iCloud in the Mail application on your Mac by creating a new folder or folders on iCloud and then dragging the messages to these folders - hold the option key down to retain the messages on your Mac and duplicate them to iCloud. Move messages, not folders, and don't try to move a huge amount at a time. Remember that they will take up space on your iCloud account.

  • I have an iPhone 4S and am trying to sync with iMac mail.

    I have been using iPhone to answer email for 2 weeks on 2 different email accounts. I tried to sync with mail, but no changes to iMac mail. I don't want to go through 400 emails again ie deleting, sent etc. How do I do this so iMac is up to date with my iPhone? I have OX Lion and set the iPhone to Exchange as iCloud email account does not work for me. thanks.

    I have been on chat and a telephone conversation with my internet provider SHAW.CA and they cannot seem to assit.
    I do appreciate your replies. When you talk about Exchange Server, do you mean"Microsoft Exchange" because that is what I used to set up mail on iPhone? I also tried iCloud, but i did not like the way you have to choose sending  "from" each time you send an email. I currently use 2 accounts,one for business, one personal.
    In response to your above reply; I went to "mailbox" - sycronise account", but nothing happened.
    Am I missing some other setting perhaps. I did "enable mobile" on internet provider webmail.

  • IMac mail SENT BOX problems

    I posted in October my problems with iMac mail in that some emails I send do not appear in my Sent folder. In fact they do not appear anywhere, trash, junk, bulk mail etc.  In the case of business emails this can prove to be serious. I have spent a total of nearly five hours on the phone to Apple at considerable cost. In each case they took over my PC but still the problem persists. I did learn during these sessions that the mail service on iMac is different from that on iPhones and iPads where my same email service (Sky Yahoo) works perfectly.
    Why can't Apple come clean and accept this systemic fault on iMacs mail (others have reported it also) and really do something to put it right? I have spent nearly £1,200 plus phone calls on my iMac and certainly expect it to put Sent emails into my Sent folder. There is a fault obviously with the iMac mail service which I thought Yosemite had corrected but it is still hiding some Sent emails although not quite as bad as at one time - may be one in ten. But it is always that one ing ten which is the most important.

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
    Rebuild mailbox
    Two possible workarounds.
    1. If the account is an IMAP account, Mail/Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors - see if there is a Store send messages on server option.
    2. CC/BCC yourself and then create a mailbox under On My Mac where you can drag sent e-mails to for storage.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
    Mail Feedback
    Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.

    Well make sure you add manually the account and don't let Mail set it up automatically. I actually found instructions from AOL itself for Mail IMAP setup.

    I'm having the same problem.
    Bought a new iMac that had Snow Leopard when shipped. Transferred everything fine from my PowerPC iMac running Leopard to the new iMac with Snow Leopard. Got everything setup and then received my free upgrade notification from Apple.
    Performed the upgrade and since then Mail is forever preparing to import messages, but only for 1 of the 2 login accounts.

  • Status of the mail sending option using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

    Hi experts,
    I m using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 function moduel for sending mails to dealers. That is, whenver i execute a Z transaction, the customer invoice details are getting displayed in report output. At the same time, the same output data is sent as mail to the respective dealers.
    Now teh user is asking whether there is any possiblity for the end users to have a proof of the mail which is being sent from the Z transaction. If the mail is sent, the end user who executes the Z transaction (mail sending transaction) should have that mail in his/her SENT ITEMS. If the mail not reaches the dealer, then the user must identify the mail bounce identification.
    Pls tell me how to achve the same..
    Regards,
    Shanthi

    Hi,
    Yes it is possible..
    Just pass 'X' to the exporting parameter 'put_in_outbox'. The user can check the send mail in 'sost'. All the details of the mail will be there. This will be the proof that the mail was sent.
    Reg the 2nd part of your query, if the mail is not delivered to any reciepent or to particular recipient, the details will be there in the SAP outbox, that also you can see through transaction 'sost'.
    Thanks & Regards
    Rocky
