Just set up email... Can receive but not send emails? Help

Just got new iPad wifi only. Have set up email. Can receive them but cannot send ...any suggestions

Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

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.

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?
I have no problems with my Yahoo account but I can not send emails with my skynet account.
Actually in iPhone :
Outgoing Mail Server > SMTP "relay.skynet.be"
Primary server > Not Configured > Off
Thank you ...

When you set them up, did you set up both the incoming and outgoing email servers separately, and did you enter the correct SMTP server name, and enter your userid and password even though it says "optional"?
Something else to try, if you haven't, is delete the accounts, connect the iPhone to iTunes, on the Info tab check the box to sync mail server settings, then sync. This should duplicate the settings from your computer to your iPhone.

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails. I have iPad with same settings and no issues. Yet, I keep getting "cannot send mail" the user name or password for "[email protected]" is incorrect. Please assist. I am not running both accounts simultaneously

See:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
Did it work before?
I suspect a error in the settings for the outgoing mail server.

"I managed to solve the problem. Under smtp settings (mail preferences/accounts/edit smtp) I set the outgoing port to 25 (as recommended by Talktalk), no authentication (set to none) and unchecked SSL. I found that until I set the port to 25 and authentication to none I was unable to uncheck SSL. One I had done this I was able to send from my main email and other email adddresses set up under my account."
Superb advice R&W! My email sending block using TalkTalk started 2 months ago using Snow Leopard, continued when I upgraded to 10.8.2, and has been persistent on my wife's new iPad (IOS 6.1). Implementing your wise words has fixed all that, and now enables me to call her on FaceTime — previously only she could call me. Thank you so much; this will save hours of further fruitless searching and phoning.
Please remember that your email is now insecure, if you wish to have a secure connection SSL must be on and port 25 should be avoided.

I think a firewall is interfering with my mail program - I can receive but not send. Please help!

I think Firefox may have installed a firewall that is interfering with my email program - I can receive but not send mail.

Firefox does not install a firewall.

I'm trying to use Outlook to receive and send email from my mail.me.com account - can someone please tell me the settings to use (port number, encryption etc) as I can receive but not send. Thanks!

Looks like there is a general problem with SMTP mail today. Lots of people posting similar things.

Read this if you can receive, but not send email

If you can receive, but cannot send email on your iPhone, try the following:
Add your outgoing Server Port Number to your "Outgoing Mail Server Name"
Example: smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number ( eg. 25 )
For specifics on how to do this, read on.
From the Home Screen, select:
Settings
*Mail,Contacts ...*
your email Account ex: [email protected]
Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server
Then select your outgoing mail server *SMTP smtp.example.com*
Select Primary Server smtp.example.com
Host Name change smtp.example.com to smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number.
This worked great, but unfortunately this helpful hint could not be found on the Apple support forum ... until now
Hope this helps!

This worked for me too! (iPhone 3G 2.02). Apple's once-over-lightly help with this issue is really lame. I thought better of Apple but they are turning into just another Dell or Microsoft.

Icloud email can receive but not send on PC?

With icloud emails on my iphone I can receive and send icloud emails. On my PC I can receive but not always send. When I try to send an icloud email I get this message: "This message cannot be sent at this time"
Thanks,

I ran into this problem myself while connected via WI-FI last night and it was due to port 25 being blocked by my ISP. I recommend that you set up your Yahoo! e-mail account within iPhone. Go to Settings | Mail | Add Account... Yahoo will be the top choice.
If you want to continue to use Yahoo via POP3/SMTP, then look at this link:

Can receive, but not send emails

I've been trying to set up a new mail account on Apple Mail for the past several days. Thus far, I'm able to receive emails with the account, but not send. I've contacted my internet provider to confirm that my settings are correct, and they are, but it's still not working. They said I need to contact Apple.
He are my specifics:
MAC OS 10.5, Apple Mail, Time Warner Road Runner: Eastern North Carolina.
They have recommended: stmp-server.ec.rr.com, alternate port setting: 25. No SSL, and no authentication.
I have tried a few other settings too... the standard ports setting, alternate port setting: 587, SSL selected, and my user name and password for authentication.
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance!

I've had the same issue setting up my Time Warner Road Runner email account on a new iMac OS 10.5.5, so I can totally relate to your problem.
At first I could receive messages, but couldn't send. After multiple attempts to fix the settings, I finally found the right combination to be able to send:
1) Open the Mac Mail application
2) Click onto "Mail" in the top bar next to the apple symbol and click onto "Accounts"
3) Look down on the bottom of that window for the "Outgoing Mail Server" drop-down window, and click the drop-down window and select "Edit Server List"
4) Make sure that the server listed in the top of the next screen says:
smtp-server.ec.rr.com
5) Look down below in the same screen and click onto "Advanced"
6) Make sure the server port is 25 (not 587)
7) Also make sure that "Use Secure Socket Layers (SSL) is NOT CHECKED in the check box.
8) Make sure that the drop-down window below the server port info marked as "Authentication" is showing "none"
9) Click "OK"
10) Close out the Accounts window, so that it asks you to Save new settings. Be sure to hit "Save"
11) Close out of the Mac Mail program
12) Re-Open Mac Mail program and test it out by sending yourself.
13) You should see that dummy message sent out, and then received into your Inbox.
Hope this helps.

Can receive but not send mail while traveling

Hello:
wondering if there is a solution to this recurring problem. My email address is through my website, via my cable service, and I read it using Mail without a problem. However, when I'm traveling and using internet service other than my home, I can read my mail through Mail - but not send it. When I attempt to mail from the Mail window, it starts to send from my Outbox, and then fails, and delivers the message: "Cannot send using the server smtp [cable service name].net Use the popup menu below to try a different outgoing mail server."
I can successfully send if I log onto my mail on my website, but it's more steps. Is there a solution to this, or is this just the nature of using outside networks?

Hi BDAqua;
So can I just change the port number in my Mail>Pref>Accounts>Advanced pane, and be able to mail while traveling? Or does that create some kind of conflict with my current mail/cable provider settings? Port is currently set to 110. (It does say "check with your sysadmin before changing any of these settings". Alas.)

Can receive but not send mail

Because of buyout, had to switch over from Adelphia to Comcast this weekend. With the help of Comcast, reset Mac mail on both G4 and G3 running OS 10.4.9. Got everything finally working Sunday, but today, G4 will not send.
Error: "Message could not be delivered, will remain in Outbox until it can. Connection to server "smtp.comcast.net" on port 110 timed out." Any ideas?
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi,
I, too, got caught up in this Comcast busines. When I reset my Mail preferences per their instructions, I found that I could receive e-mail but not send it. After spending almost an hour with TWO of their so-called technical people, I was told that mine was an OEM problem and there was nothing else that Comcast could do for me.
YET, by changing the server port from Comcast's recommended 587 setting back to 25 (which it had been when I was with Time-Warner), I could then send e-mails!
Relieved but irritated,
Bill

Problem is resolved

Fax can receive but not send using ATA 187

Hi, i'm fairly new to the world of voice so please bare with me on this one
I'm upgrading a customer from analog telephony to VOIP and the customer wants his faxes working.
Telephone works fine, CUPC works fine, CUBAC works as it should etc but the fax-machines can only receive faxes, not send them.
The setup is:
CUCM 8.5.1.12900-7
CUBE Version 15.1(3)T1
ATA 187.9-2-1-0
I'm using T.38 and SIP
When i put 2 fax machines on the new solution and test them they work. They can send and receive faxes but then the traffic is local and not sendt out over the IP-trunk. When i send a fax to a fax machine (from external) it works but when the same fax machine tries to send a fax externally it failes.
It places the call but when it tries to send the fax it gives up.
I've atteached the "debug voice ccapi inout" and "debug ccsip all" from CUBE for details.
This is the last issue i have to get this customer flying on Cisco equiptment (i hope).
/Tony

Hi
Sorry for misleading you on that one. I know its on the trunk
And i believe i found the cause of my problem. The DN wasnt presented the way the the provider wanted it.
The misleading part was that it failed on media negotioation, not on the call. The log even tell the story of media negotiation being succesful but it also terminates on "cause=64" which is media failure.
I was able to place calls, receive call and receive faxes but not able to send any fax at all. That through me off thinking there was nothing wrong.
Thanks for the help
