Ios can not send emails anymore SMTP-servers are offline...

since I have ios i have trouble with the mail account. it very often says SMTP-servers are offline... and I have to restart the computer and sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.
What can I do to solve this
thanks

Are you having trouble on an iPhone or iPad (which uses iOS) or on a computer? If you're having trouble on an iOS device, what does turning off your computer have to do with this? Which iPhone? Which version of iOS? Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? Have you tried deleting the email account and adding it back?

I just updated my IPad to iOS 5 and now can not send email. The error message says the server rejects the address which is not true Asti sends on my desktop.

I just updated my iPad to iOS 5 and now can't send email- I have tried the obvious but no luck. Any suggestions?

Usually 'authentication required' means that you need to submit a username (or e-mail address) and password to the e-mail server, when sending a message. This logic is not different between Outlook and Thunderbird, and even with the latest and previous version of Thunderbird.
Of course you can try the previous version again to see if it solves the problem, although you'll be less secure because you would be missing the latest fixes.
If you'd be willing to get back to Thunderbird, say if your frustration level with your new app would increase too much, please see our article [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-send-messages cannot send messages] for further help.
In all other cases I'd appreciate it if you could mark this as answer so we know you don't need further help.

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

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.

Can't send email after updating to iOS 6

Apple update has made a useable and great device now useless. I use my iPad for work exchange email and now can't send or receive. Why release a product without checking for major bugs like this. Have had to delete all emails in outbox and constantly have to manually I close app to reset. Not happy apple!

TS3899 I can't SEND email from Telus account in Alberta, Canada? Does anyone know how to set up the Outgoing server? Help! And thanks!

Can't SEND email from Telus account in Alberta, Canada, unless I go to web mail. Does anyone know how to set up the Outgoing server? Incoming is fine. Outgoing used to work. We changed it when we went to another location, and can't get it back. Telus support can't fix it. Neither smtp.telus.net NOR mail.telus.net works for Outgoing server to send mail. Please help! Thanks.

IPhone 5 no longer receive emails, but can still send emails with yahoo email account. Any ideas to fix?

iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 stopped receiving mail yesterday. Have yahoo email account. Can still send emails. Have turned device off/on. Have done the dual off/on thing using top button and menu button. Issue seems to be only with main inbox, as sub folders are receiving mail. Other Apple device is not having issues like this, just on iPhone.

Your issue is with the Yahoo email account which is notoriously bad.
you can try deleting and reinstalling the email account.
If that doesn't fix it try the yahoo email app.

In my iPad 2 with IO6 today I can not send emails from my gmail account, they go to the outbox directly...why? How can i solve this problem? ..I restarted the IPad but the problem was not solved. Please help.

Greetings,
Questions:
1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
3. Do you use MobileMe/ iCloud or another server based sync solution like Google or Yahoo?
4. Do other changes to synced information like Address Book content sync successfully back and forth?
Based on your description it sounds like you have a 1 way sync issue. Events sync fine between the iOS devices and fine from the computer to the iOS devices but not from the iOS devices to the computer.
Try:
Backup your computer and iOS devices before doing anything else:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Ensure all the devices in use are fully up to date: Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update
Make separate backups of critical data:
Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
Reset syncing on your Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
Reply back if that does not resolve your issue.
Hope that helps.

I can't send email after iOS7 update...

I can't send email after the iOS7 update....this is a show stopper for me. When is a fix expected?

First it would help if you explain exactly what happens when you send an email.
Do you get an error message?
If so what does the message say?
The abilitly to send or receive emails does not fall on Apple or the IOS 7.
You email provider gives you that ability.
Double check and make sure your outgoing mail server is correct.

Why I can't send emails to some address and also i...

Hello!
Why I can't send email using my ovi mail account to some email address and also i can't send email using Thunderbird? So what is the problem?
I can't send email to any address using Mozilla Thunderbird. Every time show "Login to server mail.ovi.com failed." but Thunderbird download my ovi account email without any problem. how do i fix this error. I don't know where to post this matter!

Yahoo has messed with their stuff lately (honestly they've been messing with their servers for months)
One thing would be if you guys wanted to use the yahoo mail app, or there have been other users posting solutions that they say work for them
https://discussions.apple.com/message/27906475?ac_cid=tw123456#27906475

These have applied to people not able to get mail but changing the settings may help you and your wife. (My yahoo is still working so I haven't needed to try any of these)
I've noticed with my Yahoo that they've changed their login protocols. For example 'stay signed in' is always clicked and the push is for people to merge multiple accounts to access their multiple yahoo from one account/sign in instead of signing out/in to access different accounts. I'm wondering if that change is what's messing with the protocols needed for iOS mail to work. But no one really knows for sure (and neither Apple or Yahoo will comment on the issue)
About all users can do is find work arounds that work for them.
If these don't work or if you don't want to use the yahoo mail app, you might try using safari to go to yahoo.com and access your mail that way.

We changed our password on our email and now I can't send emails I can receive them.

We changed our email password and now we can't send emails.

Hey there Darlene E,
It sounds like after you changed your email password you can send email, but cannot receive them. Try out the troubleshooting in this article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage (try any webpage). If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you are unable to load a webpage, follow these troubleshooting steps.Try to use an alternate Internet connection if available:
Try a different Wi-Fi connection
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

I can receive email but can't send email

Switched over from Sprint about a week ago. I restored my new iPhone 6 and had some iMessage issues which I cleared up by re-setting my settings (the option that doesn't delete anything). I'm not sure if the re-set has anything to with it but for past 3 days, I've been able to get email on my phone but not send it. I keep getting a window saying my email username or pw is incorrect. I've re-inputted in the pw and username and checked the imap and smtp values and everything is correct but I still can't send email, i.e, forward, reply, etc.
Thanks for your help.

Many thanks! Per your response, I deleted the email account, re-inputted everything and it's working fine. FYI, the email account is my own domain which I've had for about 10 years.
Again, thanks.
PS - Before you responded I went online and a number of recent forum posts I read said that this issue is a bug in iOS 8 and it comes and goes. If it is, hopefully Apple will fix it.
