Mail has stopped sending and receiving

My phone has stopped sending and receiving email. When i follow the troubleshooting on line it tells me to go into advanced settings and swithc the smtp server to on and then off again. Unfortunately when I get to that screen, its frozen, and wont let me move the sliders across.
Has anybody had the same issue, or know how to fix it??

Yup, iCloud Mail is snafu'd.
Always worth checking at http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/ for the status, before deciding the fault's at your end.
Often, it isn't - and if I'd checked that in the past, I'd have saved myself several totally unnecessary password resets.

My MacBook Air has stopped sending and receiving email

I am using an email exchange and my MacBook air just stopped e and receiving emails on that account. Please help

Hi ..
Check with the email exchange you're using to see if the server is down temporarily.

My mail has stopped sending. I can receive but I can't send.

My mail has stopped sending, even though I can still send via my iPod. Mail on my iMac can receive but not send. I've tried deleting the talktalk account and starting a fresh, but it's not made any difference. This has just started to happen, I was sending quite happily until now. Does anyone have a solution?
I get a message saying: Cannot send message using the server smtp.talktalk.net:(followed by my email address)

I would think that at the very LEAST you would be eligible for a COMPLETE refund of ALL charges for insurance paid thru Verizon! They were charging you for something you were ineligible for! Verizon has a record of whether or not you purchased the phone from them - otherwise how could they deny the claim!
It very sad to see how customer service and customer satisfaction has been lost here ... !

So? What's your problem? BTW, you show SL as the OS, but mention installing Mavs. Very confusing.

Mail has stopped sending all mail. Insist that outgoing servers are offline. Have checked all setting preferences for outgoing servers including user name and password.

Mail has stopped sending all email. Says all outgoing servers are offline and server certificate are invalid. Have gone into preferences/accounts/edit SMTP servers and reentered all data including user name and password.
Have had this happen before and had to upgrade to Maverick to cure it.

Outgoing port 465 does not work only 110 works You need to change the Ports and security settings to those that I posted or your signing into BTMail servers will not be accepted. See the link below.

when I use BT Yahoo both accounts work okay
When I use Windows live mail (which I prefer to use) only second account works but not main account (default account)does not work????
I have checked out all the other criteria you say.

Mail has stopped sending

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1. I use an IMAP account to send and receive email. It's been running perfect for over a year.
Then yesterday, and for no reason, mail stopped sending and goes straight into the outbox after this error message:
"A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed".
The thing is I haven't changed any mail account preferences, SMTP, Passwords or anything. Furthermore the exact same mail account settings on my MacBook Pro work just fine. I can send and receive perfectly.
Anybody have any clues?
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks again ckuan.
My outgoing mail server is the same. Password is the same.
Problem still here this morning. Every time I send an email it won't send. Gets sent (with error message above) straight into the outbox.
Just to note. I can recieve email into this account fine.
I contacted my service provider to check all setting are correct. They are.
I'm totally at a loss as to:
A) Why it just suddenly stopped working despite me not changeing any mail account settings
B) What I can do to fix it. My iPhone is no use unless I can send business emails

My Mac mail has stopped sending email.

I have changed the password, restarted, and looked for new updates. Nothing has helped. I can't even send a plain text email. I have no problems receiveing mail, or send and receiving through my browser or my phone. The outgoing mail just sits in the outbox and does nothing.
Anyone else had the same issue and resolved it?

BASICS Send & Receive
1. If you can send but not receive you have a bad POP or IMAP configuration (Incoming server)
2. If you can receive but not send then you have a bad SMTP configuration (Outgoing server)
EDIT SMTP SETTINGS
In Accounts window, select to Edit SMTP Server list...
Select account in the list.
Click on Advanced tab. Enter full email address and password
Open Connection Doctor under Window in the Menu bar.
Do you see green light for SMTP for your account?
It's not uncommon to find extra SMTP servers listed. When you remove account, Mail does not delete the smtp info. You might need to do some clean up.
If you still have problems....
What email provider? (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, Earthlink, Comcast, ATT, other)
If other please identity provider.

Mail has stopped sending on my iMac, iPhone and iPad

I have been sending mail to my wife from my iMac, iPhone and iPad and it doesn't arrive. I can see it in my sent mail folder but it never arrives. I'm not sure when this started as I am travelling at the moment. I also can't send mail to myself. I know that some of my mail is getting through but mail that I send to myself disappears too.
I only became aware of it when I asked my wife about an email that I had sent which she never received. I am completely baffled but think that it has to be an iCloud problem as it happens on all devices.
Anyone have any ideas?

Open contacts on your phone and check your groups. Do your contacts belong to any non-iCloud groups such as On My iPhone, a Gmail, Yahoo or Exchange account, or anything else? Also check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section). What is selected as your default account?

Stop Sending and Receiving Emails for the employee which is no longer exist

Exchange 2007
Hi There,
I have lot's of mailboxes in my exchange server which their users are not with us anymore.
I would like to stop receiving any emails for them.
I know if I go to "Mail Flow Settings\Message Delivery Restrictions\Accept messages from\Only Senders in the Following List" and select a dummy user it works but it sends my server information to the sender. and I do not want to give the
information.
Any idea how to:
Stop sending / Receiving email for these type of users?
OR
Changing the respond message?
Thank you in Advance for your time

You have a couple options. Removing the mailbox would be the simple solution to stop mail flow, but I am assuming you need the mailbox which is why you have not taken this route.
Alternatively, if you have a message filtering solution in place that sits in front of your Exchange environment, you may be able create a filter to block inbound messages for a specific address so the message never reaches your internal Exchange servers.
This would prevent any information regarding you Exchange servers being returned.
If you do not have a filtering solution to do this, you can create a delivery status notification (DSN) so that a custom response is returned when messages are sent to a mailbox. Refer to this article on creating a DSN:

Mail has stopped sending via exchange account after syncing with Mobile Me

Hi There,
I'm having trouble tracking down the cause of this issue, but after resetting sync data on two macs (10.6.7) neither can send emails using our work account (iPad and iPhone seem fine).
When I reply to emails for work (on a third-party hosted exchange server) I receive an error saying that it can't send and suggests choosing another server. The only server in the list is Mobile Me which has the word (offline) next to it.
1.
Should the exchange server appear in the list of available servers?
2.
It looked like Mail was trying to use mobile me to send the work emails but was failing because it rejected the address, so I deleted mobile me from the SMTP server list in an effort to force mail to use the Exchange server but no joy.
The connection doctor sucessfully connects to the exchange server so it obviously sees the connection and the exchange account is set to only use the exchange server (it appears in the dropdown but not in the edit servers list).
Has anyone else seen this - need to send a few work emails!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Never Mind got it... I did find the answer after a bit more searching Thanks to anyone who read the message...
