Iphone 3G email

Please help. I cannot get my email to work properly on my iphone. I have an email account using outlook / outlook express and once synced I can receive emails on my iphone but cannot send them. 'sender address invalid'.
I had no problems on my 1st generation iphone, why now ?
Please please help. Its driving me mad !!

I had that problem as well. I think the problem is that depending on where you are, you may not be able to access your normal outgoing SMTP server. The solutions that I've heard elsewhere are: 1) use ATTs SMTP server (in the USA) 2) use Gmail's SMTP server, or 3)go outside and pay for a "personal" SPTP server. I opted for "3" and it seemed to do the trick -- well worth the $24 annual fee. Google "SMTP mail server" and you should find quite a few services. I used AUTHsmtp. I'll also use it to send outgoing emails from my laptop when I'm on the road.
FRankly, the bigger problem for me is that more often than not, I get the dreaded "connecting" spinning ball when trying to access my email and I've only been able to use my non-web-based email about 25% of the time!

  • I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they come up in camera roll as low resolution.  How do I fix this?

    I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they have very low resolution.  First I sent them from iPhoto with highest resolution, then I transferred them to my desktop in highest resolution and added them to an email, opened the email and saved to my Camera roll.  They all look like low resolution photos.This is the exact method I have used to transfer photos in the past with my 4S and never had a problem.  What am I doing wrong?  Is this a bad camera?  HELP please!  Thank you!

    My husband has the same phone, we purchased them at the same time.  I sent him the same photos in the same email that I downloaded them from and on his phone they show up with the normal higher resolution.  Is it possible that there is something wrong with my iPhone or is there a setting that can be changed?  I'm still learning to use it.  All my other photos are of normal resolution.  Does this make any sense to anyone?
    Please help!

    Hello tcnolen1,
    It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone.  Use these steps:
    Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.

  • 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???

  • My new iphone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete it on my phone and vice versa.  Is there any way to get a true synch?.

    My new iPhone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete the email on my phone and vice versa.  Is there any way to get a true synch?.

    POP does not support synchronization between the server and clients. You will need to use IMAP or Exchange Active Sync if your email provider supports it.

  • I have Imac (OSX10.6.8) and 6 days of emails that were in my inbox have disappeared. They've also gone from gmail server and my back up hard drive. But if I look at "All Mail" on my Iphone the emails are there!! Have I got settings wrong somewhere?

    "One of the benefits of Match, right?  Saving hard drive space."
    I would not use iTunes Match as a backup. There are too many bugs and I don't think that's what they intended it to be anyway. The main advantage of using it is to make your music available on OTHER devices, not to replace the music on your original computer.

    Hi johnnytoo!
    I know it's aggravating when you need to send an email and it doesn't go through! I have a link that provides step by step information from Apple's website that should resolve this for you.

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
    If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
    2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
    4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

  • Does the iphone remove emails automatically??

    I've been looking at the iphone5 or 4s, but someone told me something alarming, and I wanted to check this officially first please.
    I use my phone for business, so when I am on the move, I can check back at emails.  ie.  2-3 months ago, or evening just a month ago at times.
    On my current non-Apple handset I can see emails as far back as I choose, because I have not deleted them.  This has only baout 300mb or storage but has a MicroSD 16gb card that does not use storage for emails.
    Is it true that iPhone removes emails automitically, and if so how far back?  And is there a way to switch this function off please?
    Many thanks.

    As with any other email client, there is a setting with a POP account for removing messages from the server after being downloaded. What the iPhone's Mail app doesn't include is a right away after being downloaded option.
    All server stored mailboxes with an Exchange or IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each each email client used to access the account. There is no setting to automatically delete messages for an Exchange or IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail app except for the account's Trash mailbox which is the same with an email client on your computer.

  • Iphone 3GS Email issue

    I just purchased an Iphone 3GS (previous owner of 3G)
    Had email setup through Push with my works Exchange server with out any problems.
    Now, every so often I try to send an email with an attachment(or forward it)it gets stuck in my out box and won't send.
    I have full signal!
    Error: "Cannot Send Mail" An Error occurred while delivering your this message.
    Ever since I have upgraded to 3GS I have been having issues sending email.
    There are a few other people in the office experiencing the same problem with their 3gs, and all of the people with 3g are still not having any problems.
    None of the settings at my job have changed at all.
    Any help would be nice.

    *Large Email and Attachment Test Results:*
    I Sent a Voice Recording 1687 KB
    In a little over a minute by bouncing in and out of EMail Folders, also periodically I would Press the Fetch Control the file was Sent at

    Then select 1, 2, 3 then chose Share, email
    Next I went to Mail, in the Outbox, or Inbox, then error message

    Now Go Back to Top Mail Folder Tree
    Scroll Down to Sent Folder Tap, Status should show Connect...then

    Observation:
    +Many times at this stage, is where the Email with Attachment+
    +Successfully Sends.+
    At times for Larger Files over 500 KB, I have, had to go into other
    folders, and back out and into Sent, I did receive the error again
    repeated steps above and it went.
    Patience ultimately pays off here.
    Sent from my iPhone 3GS
    This iPhone 3GS Email was Sent (Put in the Outbox at 3:53 PM.
    To confirm the ability to still send email I sent another email at 4:44 PM, no attachment went through and was confirmed received by the recipient at 4:44 PM. Email continues to send, and receive bypassing the stuck larger email in the Outbox.
    This Photo is 2.25 MB, all the while when asked to Fetch you will receive the Error on your iPhone saying Cannot Send Mail An error occurred while delivering this message. Though this documentation event is regarding a 2.25 MB file this happens as low as 81 KB, and I believe even smaller sizes. There have still been times when sending files up to 200 + KB that have gone through with little or no delay.
    I tested this during an Apple iCare Support session and naturally the email with attachment happened to go through during the Support Phone call.
    Checking the size of the attachments they probably weren't the best examples to test with, 55 KB, and 220 KB.
    Going into Sent Box...Seems to be an accelerator for the Checking Mail...It also seems to have a positive impact on the sending of EMails with Attachments...I just discovered this but hope this will be valid.

  • On the Apple webiste, I read that you must run OS 10.6.8 in order to sync the iPhone 5 with the computer. However, in the tech specs on the "Buy the iPhone now" email  I  received at my .me email address, it list the OS sytem needed as 10.5.8. Which is it

    In Reply to all fellow Apple fans: It is great that someone found a work-around to the iTunes 11.4 no syncing problem. I think that is fine for the short term. And  I am really glad that we customers have a forum to share information and experiences regarding Apple's products. However, as someone here said, we are all customers; and posting a problem here "IN HOPES THAT APPLE READS THESE POSTS" is NOT a way to resolve this issue or any issue.
    PLEASE CONTACT APPLE: Apple Service Center: 1-800-275-2273   - Once you get a ticket number then and only then is this documented and then Apple can follow-through and alert the engineers who will fix this.
    The "CWA2" work-around band-aid does several things in addition to reverting back to iTunes 11.3.1. :
    1) It ensures that Apple continues to know nothing of the problem.
    2) It ensures that the faulty code that is within 11.4 remains there and is perpetuated into future versions.
    3) It ensures that YOU can never upgrade to future versions. (If the resident faulty code remains and perpetuates)
    So once you have reverted back to 11.3.1, the problem APPEARS to have gone away (FOR YOU) but you have not solved the problem.
    Again, respectfully,
    1) Sending feedback to apple (using the "Report Bugs To Apple" menu item in Safari will get the information to someone, somewhere and add it to the pile of issues, complaints, suggestions, etc.
    2) CALLING the Apple service/support Center at  1-800-275-2273 will put you in touch with a real APPLE person who will begin the process of documenting and forwarding this issue on to those who will fix it.
    and
    3) emailing Apple directly will make sure that they get the information.
    lets get this fixed !!!!!!!!!
