Mail can not be sent from pop account

The mail can not be sent from my mail configured on my iMac. Please help.

While in mail, if you click Window then Connection Doctor, do any of the connections have a red dot next to them? The message should tell you what's wrong and if you click on it, it should take you to where you can fix it.

Mail can not receive messages from yahoo account

Hello,
last year I bought my first Appler computer and it was a good decision . I use the mail application and addes 2 email accounts. One yahoo email account and one t-online email account. It works very well until september ... Since september I can't receive new messages from my yahoo account.
I tried different things I read in this forum. For example to delete the file com.apple.mail.list in library/preferences and start the mail application. I create a new account for yahoo. Mail read the only 49 messages from the total 84 messages. If I look at the account information within the mail application it shows all 84 messages from the yahoo account.
I also use opera as an other internet browser and the embedded email client. Opera receive my emails from the yahoo acount.
There are any other suggestions to solve my problem ?

I'm having the same problem too. I think it's an issue on Yahoo's end because whenever I can't retrieve message on the POP server, I also can't login to Yahoo on Adium Messenger. Yahoo has a history of this happening, but never for days on end. I think the solution is to set your Yahoo mail to forward to Gmail and be done with it.

I have 3 email accounts in Mail on Macbook Pro. Mail is only being sent from 1 account.

I have 3 email accounts in Mail. Mail is only being sent from 1 account, even though I select one of the other accounts in the "from" field. In my sent box, the "From" field says the accout I selected, but all recipients say they receive it from a different account. I set my composing preferences "send new messages from" to the main account, but all my mail is still being sent from a different account. I cannot see that this is happening, only people receiving it can. I noticed it because when they reply, it goes to a different account than what I sent to them. Any suggestions with what I should do?

Thank you! Funny. I had just found that answer eleswhere: http://simonwheatley.co.uk/2013/02/apple-mail-sending-email-from-the-wrong-accou nt/

Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts but the messages are in the server.

Hello, I'm having this problem. Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts. I don't know why but there're two accounts working so bad. If I click with the right button on the account and click to see the account details, I can see the messages on the server but not in inbox. I made a sync with this account and my iphone and then the iphone downlad the messages with out problems. Not my imac at work or my imac at home... what can be wrong?
Thanks.

For Gmail, this is normal, there is nothing you can do about it -- just type Mail AND Gmail in the search box to see threads discussing how Gmail works.
As for the other accounts, this shouldn't happen. I wonder if what you're seeing is just that Mail is ignoring this setting for mail that was already on the server when you started using it. I've seen something like this happen when playing with that setting, e.g. changing it from "After one day" to "After one week". Mail would just ignore messages that fell in the timeframe where the two settings could interfere and I didn't notice it until some time later, when Mail "forgot" those messages had already been downloaded and, being faced with them again, dutifully downloaded them as if they were all new.
I believe that, if you leave the setting however you wish and stop playing with it, then Mail shall correctly process any mail that arrives from now on. In order to manually delete old messages that Mail seems to be ignoring, you can invoke the Account Info window (this is probably what you meant when you said "I can delete messages individually"; if that's not the case and want more info on this, just ask).

Can not send email from corporate account when out of office

I have a 3G+wifi ipad, my sending via corp email works when I'm in the office (connected via wifi) but doesn't send when I'm on 3G and other wifi network (my home wifi). When I send from the other locations I can send from yahoo account only. I have tried to change the server port a couple of times but still no luck. Anyone has any idea how solve this problem?

I am still having some of the problems the guy who can't get corporate emails has.
You have already read my thread. Yesterday was a good day, I got every single email I received on my iPhone and main Mac computer on my iPad.
I powered the Pad down last night, turned it on this morning and only got 2 of the 4 I was sent during the night, 2 of them being from my US HO but yesterday I got emails from my US HO on my iPad early in the evening.
I have learnt that ntl world emails cannot be received with 'Push' so that cancels out that being anything to do with it.
There is only one difference in my settings so don't know if this is making any difference:-
On my iPad the smtp authentication is MD5 Challenge-Response.
On my iPhone the authentication is Password, I have tried changing it but it won't let me. Can't think that this is the problem as this is on the Outgoing Server of which I have no problems.
Another odd thing is that when I got my iPhone last year I synched the account settings through iTunes. I did this 3 weeks ago when I got my iPad. I then unselected synching the accounts in iTunes when the Pad was connected as I wanted to set them up manually. Now I cannot access this part of iTunes for the phone or pad, it's ticked but greyed out and doesn't show any of my 4 accounts.
One of the main reasons I bought a Pad is to do emails on it as I find the iPhone a little small to use all day. I am gutted that the Pad is not getting all mails and can't trust it.
Could it be that when I power down it affects the settings as that's the only thing different I did yesterday. I will keep the pad on all day and night but this should not be the problem can it? Don;t want to waste power having it on all evening.

"Sender Name is Invalid" (can't send email from POP account) iPhone 2.1

I updated from V2.0.2 to V2.1 today. I also swapped out my original iPhone EDGE for a new iPhone EDGE due to unrelated problems with the speaker.
Upon testing things after restoring from backup to the new phone I discovered that I could no longer SEND email from my POP account. I could receive email just fine on that account. Sending and receiving email on my MobilMe account also worked, as did sending and receiving email via the POP account while on the Mac computer I use to sync with this iPhone.
After digging into this with AppleCare we discovered that somehow the Port Address for the Outgoing Mail Server for that POP account had been changed from 25 to 587 on the iPhone.
Changing it back to 25 fixed my problem.
We don't know whether the problem was due to the 2.1 upgrade or due to something in the restore process after swapping the phones.
If you get the error message "Sender Name is Invalid" while trying to send email from a POP account on your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and select the line for your POP account.
Now scroll down to the Outgoing Mail Server entry which should show "SMTP" and the name of the outgoing mail server for that POP account. Select that line. This will display a list of servers with your POP account server showing at the top as the Primary Server. Select that line.
In the panel that displays, check the Server Port. If it is something odd like 587, that may be your problem. Select the line and you can edit it to something more normal like 25. Touch the "SMTP" button at the top left of the number entry screen to accept that new value.
We discovered that after correcting that value on the iPhone it STAYS corrected even after doing a new Sync with iTunes, or after MobileMe syncs.
--Bob

Sorry you had problems Bob.
Depending on the mail service you are using, Port 25 or Port 587 are usually acceptable for outgoing
SMTP mail. Many cafes will block the customary port 25 to prevent spammers from using their
wireless access.
There is a superb tutorial posted here:
http://www.webmail.us/docs/support/Macintosh-OSX-Mail.pdf
Also be sure for each mail account to turn ON the secondary AT&T server shown at the bottom
of the SMTP server list for each account -- it will make your transition from wireless to Edge
to 3G networks much more reliable.
Thanks for sharing what you've learned. Hope this helps.

I changed my e-mail address a few months ago everything was ok. Starting monday my outgoing mail can not be sent, it says the server rejected my e-mail address. Why ? I can receive mail but not send it

My outgoing mail gets rejected. I can get mail but not send it.It was working for about 6 months.

If the smtp is rejecting your password you should go in.
Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts
Select your Yahoo account in the sidebar on the left.
In account information tab you will see : " Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) "
Click on it and choose edit SMTP server list.
Select Yahoo and click on the advanced tab.
Now fill your new Yahoo password.
Hope it's help.

Mail can't login into my POP account since 10.6.2

I was receiving email up to minutes before I updated to 10.6.2, nothing since.
Same account OK from Leopard, and on iPhone.
I get: 'The POP server “mail.uqconnect.net” rejected the password for user “zzbspenc”.'
Connection Doctor connects to the Internet OK, fails to login to account.
I can login to the ISP's server from Terminal ok.
Reported to my ISP, and was told that a number of other users have reported the same problem.

Hey, tried something which appears to have worked.
Under Mail Preferences > Accounts > Advanced:
Changed "Authentication" from "MD5 Challenge-Response" (which is what was set in Leopard setup) to "Password"

Can not send email from .mac account from the iPhone

I'm having problems sending email from my iPhone from my .Mac Account and says the outgoing server timed out. Any Suggestions?

This error message indicates you are not using the correct server port for .Mac's SMTP server.
Did you transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone automatically via the iTunes sync process or did you manually create your .Mac account on the iPhone?
If the former, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP Server selection, select the Server Settings button below for .Mac's SMTP server.
If 25 is available in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting and then re-sync your iPhone making sure your .Mac account is selected for account settings to be transferred to the iPhone.

Since I downloaded Firfox 4.0 I am having trouble sending e-mails. Norton sends the e-mails back stating the e-mail can not be sent. Any ideas why this is happening?

Why is Norton returning half of my e-mails that I forward? This started happening after I downloaded Firefox 4.0 on 3-25-2011.

Thunderbird saves your drafts every five minutes by default. Sometimes auto-saved draft messages aren't cleaned up, giving you the impression that the incomplete messages are also sent. This happens especially for drafts stored on an IMAP server. You can change the configuration to save the draft messages locally by going to Tools -> Account Settings -> [account] -> Copies & Folders- > Drafts and Templates -> Keep message drafts in... and choose Drafts folder on Local folders...

Why my mail can not be sent in Outlook 2011 for mac

after my setup of outlook2011 for mac， it is successful to receiving mail but failed to send. It is always sending but with progress zero.
can anyone tell me the answer.
Great appreciation!!

At this time Internet Service Providers are closing port 25 to avoid spammers, at least in my country.
I must use port 587.
And normaly you must autentificate the SMTP conection.

How can I transfer the e-mails that I have sent from my OUTBOX in a webserver to Thunderbird?

I have an e-mail account in a webserver (STRATO Communicator), and I want to transfer all my e-mails to Thunderbird.
I have installed Thunderbird, and I have managed to transfer all the e-mails from my INBOX from the webserver to Thunderbird.
However, I do not know how I can also transfer all the e-mails that I have sent from my OUTBOX in the webserver (STRATO Communicator) to Thunderbird as well.
Can anyone help me? Thank you very much in advance!

Pop mail accounts can only access the Inbox on the server.
So if you are using a Pop mail account then there is a workaround.
In Thunderbird
Move all emails out of Inbox into other suitable folders for organising.
This makes it easy to detect the 'outbox' emails.
Logon to webmail account and move all emails from Outbox to Inbox
then in Thunderbird use Get Messages to download those emails.
You can then move those emails into a suitable folder like 'Sent'.
Please note than in Thunderbird, the account Sent folder keeps a record of what was sent by you.
The 'Outbox' located in Local Folders, is the Outbox for all mail accounts in Thunderbird. It is not a place to store emails.
In Thunderbird, when you select 'Send', it sends email immediately and puts copy in 'Sent' folder. However, if you use 'Send Later', it puts email in 'Outbox' ready to go when you select 'Send unsent messages', at which point copies are stored in 'Sent' folder and removed from 'Outbox'.

Can not receive emails from third party email accounts

Recently I started working for a small business which has small business server 2011 and exchange 2010 installed. Before I started there were eight user accounts and they all have unlimited email access. I created a few users through sbs AD and also from
exchange console a week ago. Unfortunately none of them can not receive emails from third party accounts. they all can receive internal emails and also can send mails to any email accounts internally and externally.
This is a night mare for me as new users are having trouble with communicating via mails. I have tried all the methods and now thought of posting this issue on tech net. Please help me on this!!
Thanks a lot!!
Sammy

Checklist for testing inbound email problems, I am assuming outbound emails works ok.
1. Check Port 25 forwarding on all modems routers/firewalls
2. MX Record is created and pointing to the correct Public IP Address, use MXToolbox.com to verify MX Record and test SMTP flow. Also Verify your public IP has not changed, use whatsmyip.org to check you public IP
3. If using POP Connector Service, make sure POP accounts are created properly
4. If using a 3rd party spam host, make sure they forward email to correct public IP address, use step 2 to verify your public IP.
