Mail reply address not recognized by server

On Apple Mail using Road Runner server my replies don't get sent because "the server does not accept my address" as the sender. I can't send new messages either. Incoming mail to the same address works fine. My address is unchanged from when it worked. My device is an Apple Air notebook, new, 11" running 10.9.3 Maverick.

I still haven't found a solution to this problem. I purchased Office for Mac with Outlook 2011 because my IT guy told me that there were lots of people using Macs and that they used this program. It worked for 3 days and then I encountered the exact same problem. See below.
Mail could not be received at this time
The server for account "xxxxx" returned the error "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password." Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try re-entering your password?
I've asked my IT department and they have no idea what's going on. Apparently my IP address doesn't even show up on their servers. Can someone please help me?
Thanks.

Exchange and Mail: Password suddenly not recognized by server

Hello Everyone,
About one month ago my Exchange account stopped working with mail. I checked with my IT department and they told me that everything was normal on their end. Apple came out with a software update appr. 2 weeks ago I believe (10.9.1). After performing the update, my Exchange account worked again.
Fast forward to 3 days ago... again... for no apparent reason, my mail acccount starts asking me for my password again for the Exchange Account. When I enter it however, it doesn't work. I completely deleted the account and tried adding it again and got the following message:
"Internet accounts couldn't log in to the Exchange Server "email.xxx.com". Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click continue."
I've tried time and time again with no luck. When I contacted my IT guy again this time, he told me that they had never done anything the first time to try to fix this issue!
I have an iPhone and an iPad and have absolutely no issues with Exchange and my portable devices.
Can anyone help? Thanks!

I keep getting a error message "address is not recognized be server"?

To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

HT204053 iCloud email address not recognized

Why is My iCloud address not recognized. Only the one Apple transferred from my me.com appears?

Are you talking about the @icloud email address? If you didn't receive an email from Apple telling you that an @icoud email address has been reserved for you, you may not have access to it yet. They are still in the process of rolling this out and thay may not have gotten to your account yet.

Mail is suddenly not recognizing my password. it has done this now and then for a few minutes, but this time it's been days. anything I can do?

try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.

Wrong E-mail Reply Address

We have a wierd situation going on here. Running Server OS X 10.3.9.
A company that we work with has one user who's mail gives us problems. When we open mail he sends us on our end (using Mail in Jaguar, Panther, and Tiger) the reply address is reported as being from our own server. (He is not a user on our system.) However, when he sends mail to my Yahoo account, the correct reply address is listed. He is also the only of many users at his company that gives us a problem. So, I feel as though this must be an issue with our mail server.
Here is a sample of the raw source from a message he replied to from us (cleaned):

I think the user might set his reply email address as your domain at his Microsoft-Entourage setting. Let him double check his Microsoft-Entourage setting or try another user agent, or webmail to send you email to eliminate this possibility

Mail Reply/Forward Arrow Missing on Server Received/Sent Mail

Since updating to Snow Leopard, Mail (4.1) does not show the reply or forward arrow after replying or forwarding mail received from/sent to any address on our server at work. All other answered/forwarded mail that does not originate from within my business office has the arrow and shows the reply when I click on it. Interestingly, if I scroll down to mail that was answered/forwarded prior to installing SL, the arrow is there but when I click on it, I receive this error: "Mail was unable to find your reply to the message. You may have deleted the message." Yet the reply is still in my sent folder.

I'm having similar issues, tried trashing the prefs file based on a suggestion in a different thread, but that didn't help. I rely on being able to track replies in mail and this is a big issue; it sure would be nice if Apple would fix all the nagging gremlins in their critical apps (Mail, iCal, Address Book) hopefully Outlook for the Mac will make the issue moot.

Sprint Palm 755p IMAP Folders not recognized on server

My phone will check for email and then give me an error that the folders are not recognized on the server. I host my own email through Register.com and my own domain. The settings should be correct b/c when I am in the email program of my phone--drop down menu--snych server folders--the phone tells me that Folders-Draft, Trash, sent are not recognized. I press "ok" and another pop up screen asks me to check the folders to sych. My only choice is "Inbox" which is already checked. I press OK and my phone gets my emails. I cannot simply press "get" from my email program to have the phone get my email.
How do I set up my phone so that it recognizes what folders are needed to access email? Also, from my email program, I have teh choice to look in the Inbox, outbox, drafts, sent, junk email folders, but I can also edit these folders. Should they have to be edited so that they match teh folders from my email account?
I used to use pop settings with no problems at all. Since I changed email hosts adn switched to IMAP, email does not work at all from phone. Any help is appreciated. I have been on the phone for about 5 hours between Register.com, Sprint and Palm...to no avail...
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

I think IMAP settings should be the same between VersaMail and your desktop mail client for the same account (e.g., Outlook Express, Thunderbird). If the desktop mail client works and the device does not, I wonder whether Sprint has some special requirements for access through its network?

Skype name and email address not recognized

Hello,
My problem is that I can't connect to skype after I changed my password.
The new and also the old password are giving errors while logging in.
If I want to retrieve my password skype doesn't know my email address (while I still have old invoices in my mail, so this must be correct). If I want to retrieve with my skypename and my latest ordernumber (2010) this is not recognized.
How can I retrieve my password now?
If anybody can help my I would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Jos

if your account has a billing or purchase history in the last 6 months, you can request for a new password without the need of your registered email address. just click the link below;

Mail webwite address not function?

firefox got a capable allow user click the choice " mail website address", I use it often but recently around a month it not function while i click same item, t tried many tme and almost everyday still same.

Although the Envelope Index mentioned can become corrupt and cause problems, I don't think it would normally cause this. Before rebuild the index, try holding down the Shift key while clicking on the Mail Icon to launch Mail. This allows Mail to skip trying to open any one mailbox or message.
More info, please.

Email not recognized on server

I'm trying to send an email and a pop up keeps coming up that says "cannot send message using the server smtp.gmail.com, this server does not recognize the following recipients" and its all of the people I'm trying to send it to. I am receiving mail on this account and I used the connection doctor or whatever and it said it was connected and logged in. HELPPPP

The addresses are invalid, or the server thinks they are. Try sending yourself a test message.

Error Sending Mail to Addresses Not In My Address Book

When trying to send a new email to anyone who IS in my address book, the outgoing mail sends successfully. However, when trying to send a new message to someone NOT in my address book, I get the pop-up window asking me which server to use. I click on the only server address I have set up and it immediately pops the same window right back up, won't send the message, and wants to place it into the outbox folder.
If I go into my address book and add the address I'm sending to, then go back and resend the mail, it goes through successfully.
I don't have this issue with my mail accounts on multiple other macs that we have. Why is the mail application on this one machine causing this annoying error?

Mail: 'Reply all' not functioning when 'Reply-To' specified by sender

Hello
I've been testing the behaviour of the Mail app when selecting 'Reply all' to a message that has a 'Reply-To' address specified. e.g.
Original message:
From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
Cc: [email protected]
Reply-To: [email protected]
On selecting 'Reply All' I get:
From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
I would expect a Cc field with '[email protected]' included, but there is none. (My expectation is satisfied if I use Gmail rather than the Mail app.)
Any thoughts?

This is still a problem in 10.10.1. How can I not find more information about this or more people with this issue? It's driving me insane. It's such a stupid feature to have mess up. How hard can it be to point to the message that you forwarded/replied. It knows you did it or the arrow wouldn't show up to be clickable.
"Mail was unable to find your reply to the message "test". You may have deleted the message."
Wrong.

DW 8 not recognizing test server

I'm trying to set up a test server in Dreamweaver 8 on XP.
The web server is IIS running on a Windows server. I am mapped to
the drive share where the wwwroot is located.
In the "Site Definition" dialog, under testing server, I
picked "asp vpscript" as the server model, "Local/Network" for
Access, and pointed to the network share for the "Testing server
folder".
After clicking ok and opening a new asp document, all of the
tabs under "Application" all say "To use dynamic data on this
page:..." Every thing is checked off except "Set up the site's
testing server".
No matter what I do I can not get DW to recognized that the
Testing Server has been set-up.
Does anybody know what to do at this point?
Thanks

You missed one crucial point here, the URL Prefix.
In the testing server dialog you specify which folder
corresponds to which
url,
you have to configure your IIS to use that folder as a
virtual directory and
enter the corresponding url.

Hello, mannatarora.
Thank you for the question. The easiest way to troubleshoot this issue would be to delete the account and add it back to the iOS device. Below, I have included two e-mail troubleshooting articles.
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
iOS: Gmail account will not connect to Gmail server
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3058
Hope this helps,
