Mail is no longer sent

A week ago my mail stopped being sent out, the smtp address stopped accepting it. But it is accepted from this iBook, so it is my computer that is malfunctioning. It is a new computer, the electrical system died on the other one. The mail has gone out perfectly until last Friday. for a couple of days, i used the web mail to send messages, but that stopped working , too. The iBook seems to be working.

i'm sorry, i don't know all the terms. Although i have now threescore years and ten, i have only had a computer for five years, and had never touched one before. i have mastered what i needed, but until now i haven't had real problems with the mail and therefore am not very knowledgeable. i have this paper with the server, etc. on it. Even though i have several email addresses, i thought that they all came in and went out through vtxnet.ch. which has to be the ISP. Their system is DHCP (ADSL) - French or English? For a couple of days i could not send anything, and had to use the iBook. So if mac.com is a server, is it also an Internet Service Provider?
Anyway, the NEW DEVELOPEMENT! i am no longer receiving mail in my Mail inbox, and have to go to the individual email addresses on the web to fetch it.
The Server timeout alert message explanation did not help the situation, which appears to be getting worse.
This computer is only a few months old, i had to replace the other one when the electrical system failed. Is something wrong with the Macs, or with Tiger?
A computer of this reputation and price should be trouble-free!
i appreciate greatly your effort to help me, you seem to know more than the trouble-shooter i talked to last week from vtx who has no experience with Macs. He did confirm, however, my settings.

    the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
    The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
    When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
    As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
    When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
    Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but  he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.

    Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
    My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
    I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
    Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".

  • My Mac Mail program no longer stores any files in my Sent folder.  When I try to send an e-mail it just spins.  What's up?

    My Mac Mail program no longer stores any files in my Sent folder.  Moreover, the sent folder (off to the left) contains a highlighted "1" as if something is in there.
    When I try to send an e-mail message, it simply spins.
    This is new behavior for my Laptop of three years.  Usually, I have lots of messages in my Sent folder and can easily send e-mail.
    I see no discussion forum for "Mail" or for "e-mail" so I raise this question here.
    I would appreciate any help anyone might offer. 
    Thanks.

    Thank you for your reply.  Turns out, re-started my Macbook later and the problem disappeared.  Could this have helped?

  • I currently have the 55 gb of ICloud space that I'm using mostly for e-mail. ICloud has sent out a note that I will be downgraded to 5 gb. Is ICloud stating that there will no longer be an upgrade to 50 gb even if you pay for it?

    I currently have the 55 gb of ICloud space that I'm using mostly for e-mail. ICloud has sent out a note that I will be downgraded to 5 gb. Is ICloud stating that there will no longer be an upgrade to 50 gb even if you pay for it?

    I wouldn't think so. Everyone who migrated from a MobileMe account got an extra 20GB free until 30 Sept, and the emails now being sent out presumably go to everyone regardless of any subsequent storage purchase. As you've paid for 50GB this should be unaffected (but I should keep an eye on it!). If you have any uncertainty about what is going on you should contact Suppport at http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/

  • Mail app no longer responds on iPad 2

    Greetings to all,
    Using an iPad 2, my mail app froze up after trying to send an email with 6 pictures (taken with an iPhone 6) attached. 
    The mail was saved as a draft.  As I tried to (re)open it for editing/finalization, the Mail app stopped responding after freezing on me.
    Now the app mail app will open, but without displaying any contents and only for a few second only.  The device then returns to the home screen.
    I already tried to turn the device off and back on.  I also reset it.  Finally I proceeded in an attempt to delete the account from which the mail was to be sent and reset the device again... None of the above worked. Mail just seems 'dead', unresponsive. All other apps seem to work fine.
    Any ideas/leads, anyone?! 
    Thank you.

    I Don't know if the app will stay open long enough to delete the email, but have you tried that?. If you can get to the draft in the preview window on the left side, swipe across the email from right to left to get the delete button to pop up. Then delete the email. I assume, as I'm sure you do by know, that one of the photos is corrupt, or something in that particular draft is causing the problems.
    IF your email account is an IMAP Account, use a computer and log into your email in a browser and delete the email from there. IMAP email accounts actions will sync across devices, so that will remove it from the mail app on the iPad as well.

  • Voice messages are no longer sent? to the iPhone (nor notification)

    iPhone 3G running iOS 4.0.2
    I don't know how long this has been happening, but I am not able to get my voice mails without calling the mailbox (i.e. dialing myself from the iPhone). It also did not display missed calls either (no red circle number on phone app); however, upon doing a "Reset Network Settings", I get the notice of missed calls now but still no voice messages on the phone.
    Apologies if this if covered elsewhere, but 30 minutes of searching on the forums led me nowhere as my keywords are all keywords for 100 different problems/topics.

    If store sent messages on the server is not selected under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences, quit Mail first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes > Sent Messages (name of your IMAP account in parenthesis).mbox.
    Confirm there is only one Sent Messages.mbox folder for this account in the Mailboxes folder.
    If so, move this mailbox folder to the Desktop.
    Launch Mail and a new Sent Messages.mbox folder for the account will be created automatically by Mail within the Mailboxes folder when sending the next message with the account. Send a test message to yourself to confirm if the sent message is available within the account's Sent mailbox under Sent in the mailboxes drawer.
    If so, you can use the Import Mailboxes feature to import the old Sent Messages.mbox for this account moved to the Desktop.

    Thank you, Pterobyte, for responding. I was getting nervous for a while there
    Looking at mail.log for the critical period, it has only some SASL CRAM-MD5 authentication failures and a bunch of 'address not listed for <domain>' warnings. No errors of any kind.
    The mail queue eventually got sent out (I had to go to work).
    My suspicion now is that running mailbfr may have unstuck the queue and that it just was a bit overwhelmed for a while.

  • 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?

    Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one.  How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

    So the answer to my question is yes - from an old Exchange account that was provided by a previous employer.
    If so, you can't.
    You can't merge or transfer contacts that were synced over the air with an Exchange account with another account, and the same for syncing the contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. This is how most employers want it.

  • 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'.

  • Safari 6.0.4 "broke" Share button - also Mail can no longer find the application (installed via Map App store)

    Since installing the 6.0.4 Safari update via the Mac App store, I have a host of problems:
    1.  Mail can no longer find "an associated app" when I click on a url in a mail message
    2.  The Share button (extension) in the Safari toolbar no longer works
    3.  Any attempt to open a new url results in a new safari window being opened although in my preferences I have "open new windows in tabs" selected
    4.  If I click on a tab that was previously open I am continually asked to refresh the window
    5. I have had about a half dozen "Safari not responding" events since the upgrade, forcing me to Force Quit - generally when I'm trying to use one of the extensions or returning to a prebiously opened tab 
    6. Safari is intermittently unresponsive to  mouse clicks -functionality can only be restored by refreshing the page
    7.  Safari can no longer find my passwords for some extensions (e.g. Buffer)
    8. Safari is EXTREMELY slow loading pages - stalls out a few moments after entering url (or switching back to that tab) - sometimes for as long as 2 or 3 minutes
    All the Safari extensions I have were eeither pre-installed or from Apple's Safari extensions page.
    The install also corrupted my iCloud (AppleID) password, but thiswas easily fixed in Keychain.
    Anyone have a fix or know of any software conflicts that could be responsible?
    OSX 10.8.3
    Safari 6.0.4

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then uninstall them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
