If the operator of your mail account has an SMTP (outgoing mail) server that offers authentication, you should configure Mail to authenticate to the SMTP server. Details on the required settings will have to come from your mail account supplier.

How do I change the settings so my computer doesn't time-out so quickly when I'm trying to send an e-mail and the internet's a bit slow?

I tried sending a smaller picture (about 300 kb) to some of my family members and before it got to them the computer timed out (very quickly, I might add) so it wouldn't send. We have fairly slow internet speed at times and when I was using XP, under tools there was a feature to increase the time so the computer didn't time out as fast. I had it set at about two minutes. I can't seem to find the same feature under tools in Windows8. I'd really like to be able to address this problem. Thanks for your help.

You could adjust the mailnews.tcptimeout preference, as explained in the 2nd point in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Can_not_send_large_attachments this article]. Also, make sure there's no security program scanning outgoing mail attachments.

Need help sending e-mail a mobile messages

hi!
i'm a n00b in Java. Can you please tell how can i send e-mail and mobile messages in java?
thnx!!

First of all, before you do any programming, if you want to have your computer send e-mail messages then you must have access to an SMTP server.
Next, if you do have access to one, then JavaMail is a common way to write programs that send e-mail.
As for mobile messages ("text messages" to a cellphone?) you usually need a contract with some phone company to do that, so they can bill you for it.
When you find out about that, they should provide you with documentation on how to proceed. If it involves sending e-mail to a particular address, see part 1 of this reply.

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through internet connection. When I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear. Setting are for remove from server when moved from Inbox. Any idea what I can do to actually delete them?

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through regular internet connection. Lately, when I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear, downloaded anew from the server and marked as unread. My e-mail Advanced Settings are selected for "Remove from server when moved from Inbox." Even when I access the e-mail accountfrom my desktop and delete the e-mails, the re-appear on my iPad. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this and what I can do to actually delete them?

Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest.
You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit.
You may find the following article also helpful for this issue which is the same resolution:

I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:

Mail and Safari no longer connect to the Internet, but connection is live?

I have a Quicksilver G4 running OSX 10.4.11 with Safari 3.0.4 and Mail 2.1.3, connected to the Internet via Ethernet and a BT home Hub setup. Recently the Mac refused to connect to the Internet although a PC connected to the same hub did. I tested the connection with a laptop and found the cable to be fine and a good connection. I ran system diagnostics which tells me the Mac is connected to the Internet and the connection is fine - except that Mail no longer sends or receives mail, and Safari tells me I am not connected to the Internet.
I've tried every test I can think of - the connection appears fine as far as the ethernet cable, Network Diagnostics state that I have a good connection, yet neither application will connect to the server. I have changed no software in years other than Apple updates, and this is the first problem in many months of trouble-free usage.
The BT Home Hub is showing as an active location in system profiler, all else that should be, appears enabled. Can anyone help?
What more can I do to get my Mac back on-line?

Hi Heather,
In System Preferences>Network>Proxies Tab, make sure none are checked ON.
Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Airport Interface...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
So if you put 17.149.160.49 in Safari's URL bar & it connects to Apple, then these DNS numbers should cure it.

E-mail and Internet Service stopped working and I cannot get it going again - Pearl 8130

I recently activated e-mail and a data package (December 12th to be exact). On Saturday I noticed that I stopped receiving e-mails from my Hotmail, and as of today I'm receiving any e-mails from my work e-mail either. It worked 100% normally up to this point.
My browswer or online applications are not working whatsoever either. It says "There is insufficient network coverage to process your request. Please try again later", which is garbage as I have just fine network coverage as I sit in my office.
Yesterday I received a message to my phone stating:
"Update the password for jsytsma@**************.on.ca in the BlackBerry Internet Service! E-mail messages from jsytsma@**************.on.ca are not being delivereed to your BlackBerry device. To resume receiving email messages from this address, update the password for jsytsma@**************.on.ca in the BlackBerry Internet Service:"
And it proceeds to tell me how to do this. It says I can do it through my phone, which is a dead end as I go to tweak it, and I get the message about "Insufficient network coverage".
I then went to my Web Client login and tried what I thought to be my username and password. I tried several combinations and nothing was working. I have 2 passwords I use for things and I tried them over and over again with different user names, but I'm 95% sure my user name is "jsytsma".
So last resort, I type in my pin and it said the username/password will be sent to my BlackBerry messenger. That would be great if everything were working! So far it's been over 2 hours and I've received nothing.
Is there a number I can call that DOESN'T cost me $55 CDN dollars a call?

Do that ^^ as stated.
or:
1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
2. With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot
if still nothing...
3. resend your service books from your carrier BIS site.

or, for a call that doesn't cost you $55, call your carrier.

Internet Mail only says "All Mail" and "No Messages"

I have Bold 9700 with OS 6 and 4 different emails set up. I have work email with BES for Exchange and three different internet email accounts. All of them have been working fine until today. I have my icons set up so there is a different one for each mail account. The "Messages" icon is set up so that only the BES work email is viewable there. The three internet email accounts each have their own icon. When I open the icon for the problem email account it just says * No Messages * and at the top where it used to have the name of that email account it just says "All Mail". I am still receiving email to this account and I can access it by hitting the blackberry button, selecting Filter, and clicking Inbox. This is very inconvenient however, and I want to make it work the way its supposed to and how the other email accounts work. I tried the following with no success:
1. Power off, pull out battery, wait a minute, put back in and power on.
2. Pull out the battery while it is on and put it back in.
3. Delete the email account and recreate it (it just picked up the old settings).
Please help!!! I know I must have screwed up the view settings for this account but I can't figure out how to fix it.

Hola octaviolpgr.
Not sure what you mean by “I've just re-installed Mac OSX Tiger”. If you did an Archive and Install, your mail should all be there, just like the rest of your data.
Anyway, Gmail doesn’t allow the same message to be downloaded more than once via POP by normal means. To make already downloaded messages available for POP access again, you must go to Gmail’s Settings > Forwarding and POP page, select Enable POP for all mail, and click Save Changes.

Is there a way to block unwanted e-mails and spam on your mobile devices?

Is there a way to block unwanted e-mails and spam on your mobile devices?

This is generally handled by your e-mail provider, not your e-mail reader.
For example, I use Gmail and it filters spam before it ever gets to my inbox. If something does get through, I can move it to the spam folder on my iPhone to report it as spam.

How can I edit external e-mails accounts configurations I had on Mobile Me mail and now on iCloud?

how can I edit external e-mails accounts configurations I had on Mobile Me mail and now are
on iCloud?

Thanks for the answer, but the external POP accounts I had in my MobileMe are working in my iCloud! I receive all the e-mails that are directed to those POP accounts, in my iCloud e-mail, since I migrated from Mobileme to iCloud. So, iCloud accepts external accounts, but i doesn't allow us to edit new configurations or to send e-mails using Pop Accounts through it. Very weird. Does anybody have a solution?

Transfer of the account --- I lost my e-mail and Internet connection

I wanted to transfer our residential DSL account that was under my husband's name to me. They told me that I could keep my old Verizone-mail account, but when they did the transfer, my e-mail account got disconnected. Moreover, presumably since I have the same e-mail address as my 'new' address, I can't seemto activate my internet. Now I've been without an e-mail and Internet for the last several days. I called the 1-800 number > 10 times, spent hours, and still no one fixed it. This is crazy!!! Can anyone help?

I can't join mobile internet and am being told I am out of data when I'm not?

I was hoping someone could help me. About a week ago I stopped being able to use roaming internet, sometimes the pages attempt to load for a long time before telling me there are connection problems and other times I am told that I am out of data and need to top up. I don't get why it would be either of these things as I've used the internet before in those locations and a signal is being picked up, and I just brought a new packet three days ago with 2gb of data which I've not been able to use because I can't access mobile internet and haven't come close to using the 2gb of data in any previous months. Any advice would be great, thank you.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

Mobile Internet and Personal Hotspot problems

I have an iPhone 3GS with the latest updates.
Yesterday mobile internet has suddenly stopped working, giving me the 'iPhone is not connected to the internet' error anytime I tried to use Safari (nothing else involving a connection is working, really)
I didn't make any change that could have triggered this, I have an unlimited mobile internet plan and anyway I have enough money too.
I can see the 3G and Edge symbols and have a good service, APN is correct. I use only mobile internet, therefore the other connection options are always turned off.
I tried restarts, resets, both manual, with iTunes, only network settings, total formatting, restoring from backup, but I still have the problem.
Rarely it starts working, but only for some seconds, time to load a page and it stops working again.
Going through the network settings I then noticed 'Personal Hotspot' has the loading wheel that never stops spinning, like it was searching for something, I know I usually had an option to turn it on and off, anyway before that happened it was off.
I don't want to use a Personal Hotspot and want to keep it off but there's on option at all, I tried all the resets again, or staying on that setting page for a while, but it goes on spinning.
I don't know if the two things are connected, I was wondering if mobile internet and hotspot are someway conflicting with one another, if I can't connect because it keeps searching for the hotspot, or if there's any way to stop that 'loading status'?
Tried searching on other threads/Google already but I didn't find anything that would solve it

I tried with the Sim too and din't work either
I'm with Vodafone, I've seen other people having the same problem but it was due a wrong APN or else they got it fixed with a simple restart
Tried calling their CS too but I just got told to check my APN/config (it's everything fine) or try resetting network settings as I already did a few times

I have started getting a drop down box wanting my password. This happens over and over again on my iMac version 10.7.4 ok using web mail and on my iPod have spent hours on the phone apple support keep blaming bt internet but they say the connection is ok
