IPad won't send mail... Wants password

For months now I have been able to receive emails but not send them... My mothers mini iPad is the same. When sending emails it asks for a password. I'm not sure which password it means but I have tried everything I can think of with no luck. Which password is it wanting?

I'm back...

Outbox won't send mail

Had a problem earlier with my email account (Yahoo) being hacked, After resetting password all seemed to be well, but now my iPad won't send mail, it goes into OUTBOX but won't send. Receiving mail is no problem.
I am new to iPad and need a bit of help.
Thanks
John

Brilliant! Thanks Jaimi E.
My iPad did resume 'normal service' after an overnight rest. I did not know that there was an imposed 24hr quarantine, but I do know that all's well now.
I found The BT staff in their technical help desk were good at fixing the original hacking problem on my laptop, but totally helpless at sorting the iPad issues out.
I had to talk to Apple help desk in UK who in turn put me through to the USA. Their consultant was great, but he undoubtedly didn't seem to aware of the quarantine imposed by Yahoo. I will try to get this information through to him for future information
Thanks to all for your assistance.
My message to anyone who reads this topic and has been hacked on Yahoo (or btinternet) is
1 update security passwords on laptop. New password required. Delete all traces of hacked messages (inc failed delivery notices and real people's responses)
2 uninstall your mail settings on iPad and reinstall with new mail password on iPad.
3 the iPad mail system should then receive, but not send mail (goes into Outbox)
4 wait 24 hours then everything will be back to normal.
As a brand new user and about to go on a long holiday, it was a nightmare, but ended up fine!
Now in Singapore at 6am local time, can't sleep so catching up on my machine which functions perfectly!

I'm using ipad2 with ios5. My outbox won't send mail. I guess i need an outgoing server and can't find it anywhere.

I'm using ipad2 with ios5. My outbox won't send mail. I guess i need an outgoing server and can't find it anywhere. Any suggestions on how to get it to send. I have tried everything, rebooting, ensuring passwords are correct, etc.

My problem is i don't have an outgoing server spot on my menu. These are my selections. After getting to the menu that where i enter my password for hotmail, i have the following menu choices: Email, then server (bay-m.hotmail.com, then domain (empty), then username, then password, thendescription, then Use SSL, then S/MIME
I don't see or can find an outgoing server choice. My daughter has an ipad2 using Ios4 and she has all the choices that are illustrated on. All the help sites. I only have the ones listed above.

IPad won't send emails but iPhone does. iPad message says server does not recognise email address resetting account makes no difference what else can I try?,

My iPad won't send emails despite identical settings with iPhone which does work. " server does not recognise email address" resetting account fails to solve issue. What else can I try?

Have you checked ALL the settings including the port assignments? Easiest way to get those back to is to delete the email account from the iPad then redo the email account. Usually the ISP providing the email account will have instructions on their web site.

MBP won't send mail

I have both a MBP & MBA. For some reason the MBP has stopped sending mail from the mail app. The out going server is the same with both; smtp.me.com:user name. However, the MBP won't send mail.
I thought it was a MobileMe problem. Then this morning I picked up the MBA and as soon as MobileMe did a sync there was the out going mail that was in my out box on the MPB. MobileMe did a sync and immediately sent the mail. I'd already tried MobileMe Express Lane this morning, but the site isn't working ... come back later.
I'm stumped as to why the MobileMe mail works on the MBA and not the MBP where the mail originated.
Any ideas?

Double check with your ISP for the correct Outgoing Mail Server format.

IPad won't send email messages

iPad will not send email messages. I'm able to receive message. The error message I keep getting is. The email has been rejected by server. It's my own email address that I'm trying to send a message to.

I am not giving a solution but adding to the problem! My IPhone & IPad have both got the same email account (BT) they have all the same settings. The iPhone sends & receives mail perfectly well but now for some reason the iPad will not send mail?? It still receives mail.
I have tried master resets and re-installing account settings. Nothing works!!
Can anyone help please?

Previously working email account now won't send mail

I have several email accounts on both my iPad and iPhone. One of them on the iPad has stopped sending mail from one fo the accounts, but continues to receive mail. I haven't changed anything - and before I began to fault find, the settings on both devices were the same (with the spole exception of the Outgoing Server Port which was 110 on the iPad and 995 on the iPhone.
I have deleted the account on the iPad and recreated it - I changed the Server Port of 110 to both 995 and later to 25 (having seen on a forum somewhere else, being told that 'this will solve the problem').
Nothing changed. Can still receive mail into the account, but replies to messages and new mail messages don't leave - the error message is that the mail has been 'rejected by server.
On my iPhone, laptop the account works fine.
Anyone able to help - I've Googled but dont' seem to find any reason why a perfectly good, working account should suddenly stop working when nothing has been changed to cause it to stop, or any other advice other than changing the Outgoing Server Port. - Which I've done to both 995 and 25 (from the original 110)
TIA
Greg

John Burnes,
Port 25 may not work on some WiFi hotspots or the EDGE network, or may only send to some recipients but not others. Many email providers will also set up their SMTP servers to listen for authenticated connections on either port 465 or 587.
For example, .Mac does this because many consumer internet providers filter or block port 25 traffic:

This article discusses which ports some internet service providers use in the U.S.:

For Germany:

O2 offers their only relay service that you setup with them.

After years of use, AOL mail now won't send mail using firefox

I have used AOL with FIREFOX for years. However, now it won't send mail, the send button, and the reply button are dead, inoperative.
I have updated FIREFOX, it didn't help.
I can't think of anything that has changed, although something no doubt has

IPad 2 won't send mail

Actually this is a query about my parents ipad 2. They cant send email, but can receive it. We can be connected to same wi fi and my ipad email will send, but theirs won't. We have tried restarting it, with no results. Could it be because their apple ID passwords are the same as their hotmail address and password? Please bear in mind I am not a techno bod

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.

IPad will not send mail, but iPhone works. Outgoing servers are set up the same. I tried shutting off iPhone to not confuse the wireless network. Still doesn't work.

Can't send mail from iPad but IPhone is sending. Outgoing servers are set up exactly the same. I closed both safari and mail on the iPhone to try and avoid conflicts with iPad. I also shut down and restarted iPad. Still won't send.

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Why won't my iPad won't send messages?

My iPad2 won't send message to person I just received from. The send button is blue but not active. When I try to send to send a new message to another person their name is red marked with ! and the send button is gray. It won't accept any new name - alwayas in red with !.

Figured it out. The iPad message box has two lines. The first says "Subject" in gray. If you type something into the "Subject" line, but don't type anything on the next line (which is for the message), the send button remains inactive. Try typing the message on the second line. Send button then becomes active.
Now why couldn't Apple tell us that?

Mail won't send mail when in wireless mode but works fine when wired

Ok, this happens all the time. I have several pop email accounts, all of which work fine when I am hooked in to an ethernet cable, but Apple Mail won't send any of my outgoing mail form any of my accounts when i'm am working wirelessly.
I always get a message like:
Cannot send message using server smtp.name.net
I try to switch servers and I cycle through all of them, getting them same message, followed by things like:
The server response was: 5.1.2 Bad or missing RCPT domain k39sm5757680wah
Any advice.

Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
You may use “network locations” to more easily switch between network settings if necessary, as described here:

Only one Mac won't send mail

I have 4 macs in the house, and suddenly one won't send email. all the others will. No changes, upgrades nothing. I have tried all the suggestions in the discussion for this problem. Also it is intermittent. Works sometimes, other times nothing. I have both a cox and .mac account

you posted this in the BATTERY AND POWER section of the MBA forum - you might get a better response by posting in the OSX or MAIL forums....

Iphone won't send mail - does receive

This seems to have been discussed ad nauseum, but I can't figure out the solution for me. I get the following message when trying to send or reply to emails "iphone won't send email a copy has been placed in your outbox. the sender address ______was rejected by the server". On wifi everything works, not when I am off though. My email provider is Roadrunner (.twcny.rr.com)
Everything was fine up until yesterday. I don't know what could have changed.....
Any help would be appreciated.
KR

I'm having same difficulty. Was on tech support this AM and they couldn't figure it out either. I'm setting up a home wifi in next few days, will be interested to see if situation changes. My iPhone seems convinced that I'm [email protected] and tries to originate email from that address, only to be rejected by server as you describe. I can receive email that is addressed to [email protected], but even replying to such mail gets the same error. I'm beginning to suspect an ios5 bug, or there's something else about authorizing email addresses than is covered in documentation.
