Mail not getting through to my .mac address

Everyone trying to send mail to my .mac address ([email protected]) is getting mail bounced back with this message:
"You do not have permission to send to this recipient."
What the heck is this all about? Sometimes mail gets through, but not often. Everyone is getting the same message.
How can I fix this? Help, please.

Chris,
This topic did appear to be about sending, but yet the advice about Port number change would only relate to sending problems. If you are having a problem sending, while using the smtp.mac.com as the Outgoing Server, the change to Port 587 may help. This is covered in both Mail Help, and at the document at the link below:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Dotmac/Mail/en/mac31.html
If this does not help, please provide more information about your individual problem.

  • Sky e-mails not getting sent to my Mac Mail.

    Anyone got any ideas, or is this the start of another Sky/Yahoo! fiasco? As of last night, e-mails sent to my Sky mail address are not being sent to my Mac Mail, unlike ones addressed to my G mail address or to my BT internet address. Is this another example of Sky/Yahoo! being unable to provide a decent service? Has this happened to any other subscribers?

    Hello av:

  • Specific Gmail email address not getting through to iCloud email address

    Hi,
    As of this morning I am not receiving emails sent from my wife's Gmail account to my iCloud email address. However, I can receive Gmail sent from my account to my iCloud email.  I can also receive email sent from my wife's gmx email address to my iCloud email address. So the problem seems to be with one specific Gmail address (as far as I am aware).
    Any thoughts/help/advice would be much appreciated.

    It seems to be a problem between Apple and Gmail mail servers. This issue is reported in many threads here and on google product forums.
    Are you getting other emails from Gmail accounts? If not, then call Apple and report this: 800-275-2273
    The more people that call, the more they become aware this is a widespread issue. They don't read these boards.

    "iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

  • Some outgoing e mails are not getting through

    Some of the people I e mail are not getting any of my e mails. I use the verizon e mail online not outlook express or any other software. Most of my e mails are getting through but not all. Anyone have an idea why this could be happening? It's not that my e mail is blocked on the other end. One of the recipients is my dad and he isn't getting my e mail. I walked him through his setup and he does not have me blocked and I am in his address book.

    Is there a particular domain you are having trouble with? Are you getting any delivery delay/failure messages?

  • I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
    So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
    Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

    What do you mean "I could not get through to it" Are you trying to login remotely?

  • My icloud email address is included in a friend's address group set up in Gmail.  When they send an email to the group, the email never gets through to my icloud address - why?

    My icloud email address is included in a friend's address group set up in Gmail.  When they send an email to the group, the email never gets through to my icloud address - why?

    They've always been able to send to me individually - just not when my email is part of a group or even when it's just included with several other addresses added one at a time.

  • SMS messages not getting through

    using iOS 5.0.1 on a 3GS.  If I have iMessaging turned on and I text someone who has a phone other than an iPhone, they don't get the text.  I DO have the "Send as SMS when iMessage is unavailable" button checked.  I also DO select the person's mobile phone number, NOT their email, when I'm texting them.  I have experimented several times just now with a friend and they are NOT getting texts from me.  This seems like an awfully basic, awfully serious, awfully annoying bug. 
    I am now in the middle of experimenting to see if I can text at all if it's not iMessaging.  I have turned iMessaging off, and as far as I can tell my texts are STILL not getting through.  So, as far as I can tell, there is no way for me to text now.  What's the problem?

    @Rich,
    I'm on Fido/Rogers (Canada) not AT&T, so my experience may not be applicable. But I have found in the past that older versions of SIM cards would not work properly in newer phones, and vice versa. Not just iPhones, but in general. SIM cards have different capabilities, varying amounts of internal memory, and different interface specs.  It's plausible that the vintage of SIM that shipped with your 3G (or whatever you had before) might be slightly incompatible with the 3GS.
    Another gotcha that I've encountered is the phone number (server address) of the SMSC that is programmed into the SIM. Large wireless carriers often (usually) have a number of different SMSCs distributed around their network. It's possible that they changed your designated SMSC. If your SIM still points at the old SMSC (and AT&T has moved you to a different one), that might explain your SMS problems. On the other hand, if the SIM you are using is the one that shipped from AT&T with your 3GS, then this is probably a red herring. Still, I think it would be useful to put the SIM into a non-iPhone and see if you can send/receive texts, just to verify that it's not a network problem.
    Programming of the proper SMSC into one's SIM card can be done over the air -- the carrier sends a specially-formatted SMS message to the phone, and the phone then updates the data in the SIM card. You might call AT&T and ask them to do so.
    I'm grasping at straws here. SIM vintage and/or SMSC configuration might have nothing to do with your problem.

    My texts have stoipped getting through to one of my contacts. I can phone him and I can receive his calls and messages. I am the only one of his contacts whose  texts are not getting through. We have both restarted our iphones but the problem continues.

    Have you talked to your carrier (or your friend to his)?  Could be an issue at their end.

  • Hello, I have a Macbook pro retina-2013.  About Mavericks I could set my 4K monitor via HDMI on 2560x1440.  This I can not get through at Yosemite. Can someone help me there?

    Hello, I have a macbook pro retina-2013.
    About Mavericks I could set my 4K monitor via HDMI on 2560x1440.
    This I can not get through at Yosemite. Can someone help me there?

    They really pushed that it would all work great! Has anyone had the same struggle? Are there any step-by-step instructions to get linked up?
    Call Verizon's wireless tech support & explain your problem to them.  They will provide "step-by-step" instructions over the phone. 
    Take notes too!
    TIP:  If you do call & don't want to go through all those darn promps, when you initially call, just don't say anything.  The automatic voice will then say,  "will connect you to a service rep."

    Open Messages. Then go to the Menu and click on Messages. In the drop down select Preferences. Choose the accounts tab. If you have already added your iCloud account then remove it and add it again.

    Here is what worked for me:
