Mac mail auto populates server info and...

Once I go back and edit the server info, still getting error sending email. Can pull fine, just error when sending.
Yes, I have tripple checked all mail settings online and with tech support, they are correct.  iMac is working just fine.  MacBook is the issue, and I had to use my password for the wireless network so I'm on my network.
COX network
Any ideas?

The Exchange server's autodiscover feature is probably the culprit.  Maybe try editing the hosts file or using Little Snitch to block access to the autodiscover URL.

  • Why are sent emails from mac mail going to out box and message saying cannot connect to ATT server?

    I receive emails via ATT to my mac mailbox. But when I send an email it goes to the out box and I get a message that it cannot connect to the server?
    The genius bar said that APPLE and ATT were working on this, but very frustrating. Any suggestions?

    Same is happening with me.  Was having intermittent DSL service - called AT&T to rectify.
    After the internet was back up and running, I could no longer send outgoing mail from my Mac Mail 5.3 application.  I didn't change any settings or update any software, yet the IT person i was talking to (the same who corrected my internet issue) was saying it was a Mail problem.
    I disagree considering it was working 1/2 hour before we started our conversation!
    Any insight would be helpful.
    Definitely set up the way AT&T suggested!

  • Cannot send message (from mac mail) using the server iCloud

    My Mac Mail send stopped working during a large number of mail sends yesterday.Could that be an issue? If so, what to do?
    Message further reads - The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server smtp.mail.me.com.
    I deleted the account and set it up again, but still can't get the mail out. Same messages
    If I go on to iCloud, mail send is working fine.
    Can anyone see anything wrong or suggest what to do?

    There is no user name entered in your SMTP (advanced) preferences.

  • Mail keeps populating server info

    Okay, I want to reinstall Mail... wipe the cobwebs out and freshly enter information.  Problem is, it keeps repopulating the information from somewhere before I have a chance to set it up.  I deleted the mail folder in the Library, the mail preferences in Preferences, even manually removed the mail keychains from Keychains.  Launch Mail, poof everything is repopulated back into the Mail preferences, passwords, server addresses, et al.  Where is it getting this information?  I want to do a fresh install of mail without any of the past info because I suspect that it may be corrupted in some way.  But I can't test that because it keeps adding the old information automatically from places unknown.
    Anyone know how to completely wipe Mail so that it cannot create a new account without user input directly?  Like when you first bought the machine and it didn't know anything about you at all.

    Try going to home folder> mail>mailboxes mail do the same thing, then try recreating the mail acccounts, if all is good secure empty trash of envelope indexes.  Hope this helps.  ATB

  • Using two gmail accounts in Mac Mail client, smtp server issue

    I've set up two gmail accounts (one personal, one from my job) in Mac Mail. The personal account is set up via POP, the job account is IMAP. I receive mail into each account with no problem. However Mac Mail won't allow me to set up two separate smtp.gmail.com servers (one for each account). If I edit my SMTP server list and try to change either account individually, it changes BOTH accounts. So I can receive with no problem, but can only send mail from both accounts from ONE account (which ever one I've programed). Is there a way to set up two SMTP severs through gmail (one for each account)?

    I have two separate ones set for password authentication to two different accounts.
    In your smtp server list, how many are listed? If only one, click the add button and set it up for the other account.

  • Mac mail program with complex HTML and ability to send hyperlinks?

    Alright, here is the issue I've been struggling with forever.
    I'm responsible for sending out my band's emails to our mailing list. I need to add hyperlinks and insert pictures that will show up in the body of the email for both mac and PC users.
    In Mac mail with Panther, my hyperlinks come out fine for both Macs and PC users. However, my inserted pictures show up in the body of the email only for other Mac users. Most PC users only see the pics as attachments not in the body of the email.
    I've also tried Entourage X, but the opposite problem occurs. Using HTML mode, my pictures always show up in the body of the email for both PC and Mac users, but when I'm in HTML mode there is no way to add hyperlinks.
    What is my solution here? Does anyone use other email programs that would allow me to fix the problem. Perhaps I need to compose complex HTML messages in order to ensure hyperlinks and pics appear in the body of emails? If you agree with this, where would I begin to learn how to do this?
    Please help!

    I have been searching for how to create custom HTML emails in Mail, in a way that would work with OS 10.3 and 10.4, so as not to rely on the user having Tiger. After reading through many posts, I came up with a script that creates a new HTML message that you can still edit in Mail itself before sending, and you don't need Safari 2. I'm new to scripting so please let me know if this is useful.
    Jodain
    Part I: defines the HTML code; you can make something in the script itself as long as the string this_html ends up in proper formatting. I actually came up with this primarily for pasting most the html code in the script itself, with a few changing variables. If you do paste or type html code in the script, make sure you use \\ for every \, and \" for every ". If you're using TextEdit to alter the html, use find and replace in that order (\:\\ then ":\").
    Part II: builds a message in Mail with the html content... an undocumented property of a Mail message. However, it only works when visibility is false, so unless you send it right away, the user is not able to still type the recipients and edit the body in Mail as he/she might be used to. Which brings me to...
    Part III: takes the saved draft and opens it up for editing. The open command only lets you view the message, even if it is outgoing, so I had to come up with a work-around so you can still edit as if you're composing it for the first time.
    --Part I
    tell application "Safari" to set this_html to source of document 1
    tell application "Safari" to set this_page to name of document 1
    --Part II
    tell application "Mail"
    activate
    set theMsg to make new outgoing message with properties ¬
    {subject:this_page, html content:this_html & ¬
    return & return, content:""}
    tell theMsg to make new to recipient
    save theMsg
    --Part III
    if not (exists the front message viewer) then make new ¬
    message viewer
    tell front message viewer
    set selected mailboxes to {the drafts mailbox}
    set sort column to date received column
    set sorted ascending to false
    delay 3
    set selected messages to {first message}
    tell application "System Events" to tell process ¬
    "Mail" to keystroke return
    end tell
    end tell

  • My question actually has to do with mac mail. someone has corrupted it, and is using it to send out emails, which keep getting rejected. some of the strangest address's and so forth. anyone else had this problem? where and what can I do about it.

    my mac mail is corrupted or being infiltrated. emails are being sent to whomever and where ever. the recipients are not from my known contacts list, and these emails are also being rejected.  where can I report this problem to, specifically what can I do about it.

    Thinking about it, ClamX will find Windows as well as Mac malware. This might not have been a Mac trojan. Here's a list of recent Mac malware in the ClamX catalog.

  • How can I import 1000s of Emails from Mac Mail (Exchange Account) into Gmail and Retain Labels?

    I have an old exchange account in Mac Mail, disconnected, but still with 1000s of emails in a folder structre. I'd like to import all of those into my Gmail account, and retain the folder structre as Gmail labels). What's th easiest way to do this?

    That is a question for Google, as far as I know Exchange does not use labels, the folders are (unlike Gmail) real.
    But Google support may know a way.

  • Mac mail - can't type message and reply not working.

    mac mail working fine until today. Tried to set up a new message. Added address okay, put in subject okay but when I came to type text into main panel I get about three letters typed and the curser vanishes and I get an alert sound. And that's the way it stays.
    Tried reboots and all the usual tricks.
    Also trying to reply to an email does not work
    Everything else appears alright. Incoming mail is okay.
    Can anybody help me out here? Desparately need to be back online.

    This problem in Mail is usually caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. 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, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem 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. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
    4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    6. Restart the computer.

  • Pass Server Info and find service existed or not

    Hi All,
            I have written batch code which is running fine to find weather service is existed or not.But I want to pass parameter which holds server name and find weather the service is existed or not .Can any one help me how can i do it
    @echo off
    net start | find "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)" > nul 2>&1
    if %ERRORLEVEL%==0 echo "MS SQLServer Analysis Service running"
    if %ERRORLEVEL%==1 echo "MS SQLServer Analysis Service not running"
    Pause
    Samar

    I would highly recommend that you start to learn PowerShell, instead of trying to work with batch files at this point.  It's the future of command-line functionality in Microsoft products, and it's going to be harder and harder to find tools that enable
    you to perform the same tasks on the old command prompt.
    For this specific question, though, all that's missing from JRV's example is the /node:"ComputerName" parameter to wmic.exe.

  • Mac mail auto closing mail and cycles to previous message

    My MacBook has gone haywire! When i open an email, it closes it immediately and cycles back to the previous message, or back to the folders, or both. anyone got any ideas? too weird

    Mail has Smart Addresses that will display the name and email address under Preferences > Viewing, but your issue sounds like a different issue.
    Did you setup an outlook.com alias in Outlook.com when it made the transition? If not, add an alias and see if that helps. You can also test sending from the outlook.com alias to see if the results are as expected.
    For example if your Hotmail email is [email protected] then setup an alias [email protected]
    If that fails, test in a new User.
    Create a new User in System Preferences.
    Log into your new User.
    You can skip the Apple ID setup unless you are testing iCloud.
    Select Don't Sign in > Continue > Skip
    Open Mail and enter your Hotmail account.
    Does the problem go away?

  • Mail quit-erased account info and emails

    When I was trying to send an email, Mail quit. Didn't think much of it...just a gliche. When re-opened, I noticed ALL my emails were gone and upon further investigation, noticed that my account info had been replaced with a .mac account that I have never opened. Also, there was some weird "delivered" folder that showed up in the mailboxes, but had nothing in it.
    Since then I've restored the accounts and working on trying to import my emails...
    I really have no idea what happened, but if anyone has figured this one out, please let me know....I can't have this happen again.
    Mac OS 10.4.4, Mail 2.0.5

    What is your hard drive capacity and available free space?
    If you don't have adequate free hard drive space required for OS X to function properly, corruption or loss of application preference files can occur and all account information and general Mail.app preferences is stored in the Mail.app preference file.
