Iphone4 on iOS 5- email send delayed by several hours. Different ISPs have same issue. iPad is sending immediately with same settings.

My iPhone is taking hours to send an email be it from gmail or yahoo, wifi or 3G, manual "other" email set up, or using the yahoo! Or gmail set up.
The iPad sends instantly.
I've reset the phone, killed background app, changed push/fetch and nothing is working.
This wasn't always an issue but cropped up around oct/nov--didn't change those email account settings but I did begin using the cloud @me.
Anyone have this problem?

Here's how outgoing mail works. Understanding this you can probably narrow down the problem yourself. Go to Mail,Contacts,Calendar and tap any email account that is a POP or IMAP account (not Exchange). Scroll down and tap on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) entry. What will appear is a list of all of the outgoing servers that are installed on the phone. When you send email the phone first tries to send using the Primary Server. If that fails it tries all of the Other SMTP Servers that are On until one of them works. But it waits a couple of minutes for a response from each one it tries. So if the Primary doesn't work it will try the first Other, then the 2nd, etc. If you have several the time can add up.
As you have just upgraded, the phone may have "forgotten" the user ID and password or one or more of the servers. So tap on each of them and re-enter your user ID and password for each server (except cwmx.com, if it is there; this is the "fallback server" operated by AT&T). BTW, if you are not on AT&T the last server will be different; you can usually identify it by its name.

EMail sending problems with N95

Hi!
My internet operator here in Finland is called Welho and email addresses has the ending @welho.com. I can send email to these welho-addresses without any problems, but when I try to send email to other addresses I get an erros message saying that can not send the email. Phone just asks my user name and password dispate that the are already stored in the email settings in the phone and they are correct.
So anyone else having same kind of problems? Solutions?

Hi kallev
Are you on a "data tariff" with your network provider?
If you are NOT access to SMPT servers other than welho is probably blocked

IOS 6 Email Notification Delay

I have been having a problem since I upgraded to ios 6. My phone will beep and/or vibrate signifying that I have an email but then it will take a second or two for the screen to light up with the notification. My co-worker is also have this problem with his 4s. Any ideas? Could this just be a bug that will be fixed in the next release?

Ive just rebooted my iphone 5 and its fied it. Someone above suggests to make sure if you have multiple email accounts to be consistent with the notifications... i have badges and banners and now when i get an email there is no delay, email preview just pops up when my screen is locked. I was also having problems with sms which would be delayed ... sounds bit message takes few secs to appear... again reboot sorted out my probs

My iMessage is sending from email instead of my phone number. I have tried to change it back by going to settings messages receive at and it won't let me click on my phone number. Please help!!

My IMessage is sending from my email, and I am recieving
Messages thru my email. I have tried to fix this by going to Settings > messaging > recieved at> and my phone number pops up along with my email. It will let me click on my email, but my phone number is greyed out and I can't click on it.i have also tried caller id, which still didn't fix the problem.
Trying to kill two birds with one stone, my phone also says that I have no storage left. I literally have 3 apps installed on my phone. Facebook, Twitter, and instagram. I only have 52 photos, 0 videos, and about 115 songs. I know for a fact that I shouldn't be out of storage, because I have friends with the same iPhone 4, that have 400 pictures, a thousand songs, and page after page of apps. I want to know what is taking up all of the storage, and what can I do to get rid of it. Thank you in advance

Sorry G23 - I like birds ;)
I suggest you start another thread as I don't know the answer to that one but this might help:
Go to settings - general - usage - Her e you might find some data hogs
Good luck

I have many business email addresses set up on my Z10. One of my accounts will happily receive emails but when I try to send I get the message 'Message Status: Protocol layer was unable to send a message'

Thanks.

Several hour delay in receiving emails sent from mail?

for 3 years i've had a pop email account with yahoo and it has worked flawlessly with my apple mail program until a few days ago when people started telling me that the emails i sent took several hours to reach them. so, using mail, i sent myself a test and confirmed the delay. emails i send immediately appear in my "sent" folder yet they don't reach their intended recipients until hours later. this problem is intermittent. there was a brief window the other day when emails i was sending from mail were arriving quickly. but, the problem soon returned and persists now. the problem does not affect the receiving of emails with mail. in other words, i am receiving all emails with mail. the problem only affects emails i send using apple mail.
when i access my email account directly through yahoo to send emails, those emails arrive immediately.
i hope i have described the problem clearly enough and i thank the community in advance for any insight and/or suggestions.

If you select a message in Mail's message viewer, then select the menu item View > Message > Long Headers, the message headers will be displayed. Depending on how the message was routed, there may be several "Received" fields - these get added at each mail server that handles the message. Each "Received" field contains information such as IP addresses, host names, dates, and times - these can be used to tell how the message was routed and how long it took. Note that a sender can fake, or "spoof", their information (usually these are spammers), but once the message reaches real-world servers the information will be correct.

Email service delays

Emails sent to my Verizon account are getting through sporadically. Some are coming through instantly, others after delays of several hours - In many cases from the same sender. What can be done to track and solve these delays?

I too am having delays in emails coming in over the last week, seeming to get worse today. Verified by discussing with client that was sending to me. Also having delays on some emails going out. Testing with another Yahoo account as well as GMail and seems to be centered in the verizon yahoo end. Gmail is sending fine . . .Does anyone know the status of this? I am on hold with tech support as I type this.

Hello Jo Pru
Check out the article below to troubleshoot issues with sending email from Mail for Mac. Check in Connection Doctor to see if there is anything that could be preventing from sending it out. Also look to see if how big the email is as that could be an issue with the message sending out.

Emailing multiple individual photos from iPhoto is causing the same image to be on different emails. Need help!

I am using iPhoto to edit my pictures from my Canon 60d. As I edit the photos, I send them by email within iPhoto (using the Large setting) to several members of my family. Last night I sent about 20 different pictures with different descriptive titles in the email to multiple people. However, when they view them in their email on their iPhones, it is showing the first picture over and over again, no matter what the title of the email says the photo is. It is even stretching the picture to either landscape or portrait depending on the view of the different pics in each email themselves but is still showing the same pic no matter the orientation.
I need to figure out if this is a bug with iPhoto and iPhone or if I need to do something different. You would think if you choose an image and email it, it would be THAT image. It only began within the last two weeks or so but it has been consistent when emailing multiple single photos. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

Greetings,
I've seen this issue myself between iPhoto and an iOS device. It appears to be an issue with the how the iOS device sees the email templates used by iPhoto '11's built in email feature.
Suggestions:
Let Apple know you have this issue: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
Go to iPhoto > Preferences > General > Email photos using > MailThis will bypass the email templates and send your images directly from the Apple Mail program. You won't have the pretty templates, but the images will come through (which is the important part in my opinion).
Keep your software up to date on your computer and on your iOS devices. (If / when a fix comes, that's how you'll get it.)
Cheers.

Find my ipad is enabled in settings, however, I receive an email saying "Find My iPhone has been disabled on Richard's iPad".

I have just done a reset on my ipad. In the settings "find my ipad " is enabled. I received an email saying "Find My iPhone has been disabled on Richard's iPad." I went back into settings and confirmed that find my iphone is enabled. How do I correct this?

If you login to your account on http://www.icloud.com is the iPad listed in the Find My iPhone part of your account ? If not then try toggling it 'off' and back 'on' on your iPad

Since upgrade to iOS 7 Email error on over 100KB emails "Cannot Send Mail The message was rejected by the server because it is too large." Connecting to Exchange via Activesync

Hi,
Following the upgrade to iOS 7.0.3 on all our iPhone and iPad devices, it has been identified that when sending emails around 100KB in size and over an error message appears on the device stating “Cannot Send Mail The message was rejected by the server because it is too large.” See error message below. The send/receive limit is over 10MB so this is not the issue.
We are in an Exchange Environment using Microsoft Activesync. This issue is not evident in iOS 6. This has been tested on an iPhone 3GS running version iOS 6.1.3. We have been unable to repeat the issues seen on iOS 7 on the older OS. It is not possible to roll back to the older operating system as Apple are no longer signing the software.
We use Microsoft Active Sync to connect to our Exchange servers through a TMG. The issue is very inconsistent, some identical emails go through, some fail. This is not an issue with the send/receive limit as this is over 10MB. The error message when it fails on the TMG is Status: 413 Request Entity Too Large, which we believe is from IIS on the CAS server.
Does anyone have any suggest course of actions to take?
Many Thanks

This resolution have to attend at the server not with the ios device. My employer's mail administrator reject me to correct it from the server. As his concern is, if ither ios devices works why don't mine? So I am helpless than changing my iphone. It works fine for early versions of ios and with androids. And also one of my friends iphone4 with ios 7 (similar as mine) works too. So I guess it's something wrong with my iPhones settings. But basic question I cannot understand is it works in my phone before this ios7 upgrading. And currently working with my yahoo account too. Favourable reply expected.

IOS 7 smtp problem - delays sending mail

Sending mail with IOS 7 seems to incur delays.
With a gmail account it takes on average 2 minutes to send mail to another gmail account. The delay from other clients seems to be around 30 sec.
With another mail account connecting to a private mail server (with SSL and port 587), the delay varies from 4 minutes to over 100 minutes, and the longer delays always occur when several test emails are sent in a short space of time.
These delays occur regardless of whether there is a 3G or wifi connection.
From what I read there is a lot of icloud stuff going on in IOS 7 and I suspect that this is the reason for the sending delays. I have an icloud account set up but the features are all disabled except for find my ipad.
I have two ipads and they both behave the same.
Grrrr. I have wasted so much time on this, including a very frustrating phone call to apple support who of course will not acknowledge there is an issue.

Try deleting the mail account and setting it back up again.
