Iphone won't send or reply to emails

iphone (iOS 7.0.4) can receive, but can't send email (either new or a reply)
Message: "Unable to send ... Copy placed in outbox ... sender address .... rejected by server".
No problem on iPad (iOS 7.0.4).
Have tried switching off iPhone, deleted email accounts, reinstalled etc.
Anyone else had this?
[This corrects my first ever post (whcih had a mistake in) earlier]

Double-check your outgoing server settings. Find out from your email provider what might be causing that error.

  • 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.

    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.

    Hey lozza567,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    Issues with sending and receiving MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    - An iPhone 3G or later.
    - iOS 3.1 or later.
    - A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
    - A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
    - A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
    1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
    5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
    6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
    8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    9. Restart your iPhone.
    10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    11. Reseat your SIM card.
    If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
    3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
    4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
    5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
    8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
    9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
    10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
    11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Just upgraded and cannot send or reply to email

    I just bought a MacBook Pro (15"/216gHz/2gig ram) and transfered everything via firewire from my old PowerBook G4. When I attempt to reply or forward email, I click on the button (or use the menu) and absolutely nothing happens. I can click compose and get a new email screen, but when I click to send nothing happens. I receive email without troubles from all my accounts. I have no problem sending and replying to email with my old G4 (and the other computers on my Airport network - so it's not the network) and all the preference settings for my accounts are identical. Any ideas or assistance?

    In the other thread where you posted about this problem, I suggested you to reset Launch Services. Have you tried that or not?
    I’ll repeat it here in case someone else having the same problem comes accross this thread. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services — the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
    Resetting Launch Services
    If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, take a look at this other article for general troubleshooting and cache-cleaning procedures. Actually, you should also verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described there:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    The most appropriate utility for this particular problem probably is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
    Side effects of System cache cleaning
    As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
    1. Quit all applications.
    2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
    3. Go to Maintenance > Reset and check LaunchServices database.
    4. Un-check any other pre-checked options.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    6. Restart the computer.

    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.

  • Using talktalk and unable to send or reply to emails any solution?

    Having just bought iPad and set up all passwords etc now. Finding unable to send or reply to emails no problem with receiving, just when I send, the message comes back that server does not recognise my address. I am with talktalk, don't know if the problem is with them. Any solutions that can be tried?

  • I can send or reply to emails from home, but not when traveling

    I can send emails and reply to emails when I'm here at home in California.  Just got back from Florida where I could neither send or reply to emails.  The same thing was happening on both my and my wifes 3gs phones.  Ideas?

    I had the same problem starting yesterday.  I fixed it by turning off wifi when not at home.  Now I can send and reply to e-mail. 
    I have found that if I leave the wifi on, the phone will keep trying to connect to the mail servers and drain the battery making the battery life problems MUCH worse.  Not sure what will happen now that it has to use the cell network for all e-mails.

  • IPhone won't send outgoing mail since upgrade to 5.0

    iPhone won't send outgoing mail since upgrade to 5.0

    I would manually go over each smtp setting and compare it with the mail providers guide
    and if they were 100% the same then I would
    get in touch with the phone company to verify if they were blocking the ports being
    used by the mail service
    there is no general issue with ios5 removing out going mail services or blocking ports

  • I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send my texts

    I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send out my texts....says they are undeliverable unless I send them out manually as texts.

    Hi sbiermann,
    If you have recently changed the password on your Apple ID account, you may need to manually sign out and sign back in to your Apple ID on your device for the change to take effect. You may find the following article helpful:

  • Suddenly today, my iPhone won't send pictures to certain people...has worked fine until today.

    Suddenly today, my iPhone won't send pictures to certain people...has worked fine until today.  Sends fine to some but not to others.  What's up?

    Like any electronic item, it sometimes gets inexplicably balled up. The reset is no different than rebooting a computer that is acting hinky. If you don't have to do it often, then it is not anythign to worry about. (I know - not the kind of tech talk you were probably expecting, but the words selected are about as scientific as you can get concerning this type of weirdness....)

  • IPhone won't send iMessage (even when signed on Wi-FI or 3G)

    My iPhone won't send iMessages even when I try to connect through Wi-Fi or 3G. At first I thought it was my Wi-Fi but it wasn't since I can connect to programs such as Safari and Instagram. I have also reset my network settings. Can someone help me or have any idea how I can fix this?
    Thank you!

    Phone is not jailbroken.
    Got it re: passcode lock.
    If I do a system restore, but I restore as a new phone, will my crucial phone functionality remain intact (phone number, ability to make calls, etc.)? And when it's restored, do I then just do a sync to have all my data brought back into the device?
    Sync settings for calendar and contacts are enabled properly, and are the same as they have been for years. I'm not sure it's the calendar or contact data that is corrupted (although anything is possible) because the sync problems started happening exactly when the iMessage problems started happening.
    Please advise on the system restore (not from backup) and I will post my results. Just wanna make sure I'm not doing anything irreparable.
    Thanks...DG

  • IPhone won't send email

    My iPhone 4S won't send emails. I can receive emails just fine but I can't seem to send any. Each time I try to send an email it says my password is incorrect (which is isn't). I've checked my STMP server to make sure the information on it was correct but when I typed in my password it wasn't responding. Any other suggestions or solutions I could try to fix this problem?

    Hello Chantelle103
    If everything checks out, then the only other option is to remove the email account and then add it back. Then test with sending out the email again.
