Mail sending problem -- takes forever (30 min+)

hi,
i read through some previous topics on this, and tried the "opendns" solution suggested here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9652048&#9652048
this did not work for me. it's weird, though, in that when i do airport-->advanced-->DNS-->DNS Servers ("add") and try to add the new address/numbers suggested (there are already 2 in there, so i'm trying to add this new one as a 3rd), it won't "accept" them. i click "ok" then "apply" and then when i close and re-open, the newly entered address isn't there.
**anyway, whether that has anything to do with it or not, i don't know. but sending in Mail is epic. thunderbird is instant, as is web-mail. seems to be a problem here with Mail, not my ISP or email account. i receive email fine, it seems. i saw prev posts lamenting this slow sending, like 30 sec or a minute. mine is taking 30 min or more! just started last night, out of nowhere. on occasion in the past, i've had these random sending delays, though like a few minutes long, not this long (half hour to send! just the spinning "sending" folder thing). no idea why. i do repair permissions frequently, it doesn't help (incidentally, i can do RP back-to-back and i still get a host of things come up that get repaired, though none of which are listed as "Mail" folders...RP takes like 10 minutes, normal?).
any suggestions?
thanks,
kelly

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
I have experienced the same behavior. For me it is corrected by entering a primary and secondary DNS address in the modem. I think this behavior differs for some people, and must be related to interaction with specific ISPs. One thing to check and report, is to open the Activity window (click on Window in the menubar, and choose Activity) and observe when sending how much time is spent connecting to the SMTP vs transmitting?
I changed my Modem to have dedicated DNS address. It may be possible to do in the router, instead, but I did mine in the Modem. How that is done will likely depend on the brand of modem. You will likely need to query your ISP to get the server DNS number -- if so, they would be able to guide the change in the modem.

Yahoo! Mail send problem

Hello all, anyone know when we will see a fix for the Yahoo! Mail sending problem? (This is when the iphone appears to have sent an email by playing the "swoosh" sent mail sound, but the message was not sent, the way users have been getting Yahoo! Mail to send again is by turning their iphone off then back on).
Cheers

For what it's worth I also had this problem with Yahoo mail on my iPhone. After getting tired of waiting for Yahoo to do something about it, I decided to cancel my Premium Yahoo account and switch to Gmail. I have to tell you Gmail has been amazing and I haven't looked back since. IMAP Gmail on my iPhone has made my email experience a pure joy.
BTW - I had my Yahoo account for over 7 years. And did you know that Yahoo is an acronym for You Always Have Other Options? Well I took them up on their advice since I wasn't too impressed with their service! My 2 cents.

Sending Gmail takes forever.

I'm using Macmail and have set up a gmail account. Everything technically works fine, it sends and receives mail, the problem is, when I try to send something it seems to take forever. The little grey things keep spinning by the send menu and it doesn't seem to catch, for lack of a better word.
I'm using a wireless router but other than this the speed and connection strength are great so I'm confused.
Any idea how to fix this, Outlook on my PC seemed much snappier.
Thanks.

HT6147 iOS 7.0.6 update - mail sending problems & uncontrollable apps closing

Hi all!
I’m having problems on two iPads after installing iOS 7.0.6 update. The first one is “sending mails via Exchange account and gmail is a NO GO!” an the second is “closing apps from time to time uncontrollably”. With iOS 7.0.4 this worked fine.
Anyone with same or similar problems? Any suggestions on how to fix this?
I already tried rebooting and deleting/adding accounts again in mail app with no positive effect.
Since iPads are used by company’s managers where seamless emailing is crucial function, this made iPads expensive bricks and nothing more.
The rest of iPads are to stay on the older version till this is fixed or workaround is found.
Thanks
Misci

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

A new clue to the Apple Mail sending problems?

In my continuing efforts to fix the SMTP/POP mail failures with Apple mail, I've noticed a glitch that some of you more advanced readers might be able to decipher.
After lots of fruitless messing around with port numbers, preferences, and keychain fix attempts, what did work for me (temporarily) was a cleaning out of all the servers listed on the mail account options window, and then putting the original names and other info back in. Somehow, the mail app is spontaneously generating multiple combinations of server names, usually the original server name, plus a user name, the server name again, or some other redundant combination.
As I use mail to manage two separate POP accounts, sometimes it also creates hybrid server names by combining the server/user name pieces across both accounts.
This appears to happen entirely on its own; I had mail working for about 90 minutes, then it fell into this problem again. I'll probably have to keep cleaning it out, like a boat owner scraping barnacles off the hull, until Apple offers some kind of a patch.
Has anyone else who has the nagging "can't send SMTP mail" problem seen this phenomenon in their server/account preferences specs? If so, any ideas on how to stop this madness?

You haven’t said what the problem was in your case, i.e. what error message did you get when sending, if any, whether the mail account and the associated outgoing (SMTP) server were provided by your ISP or by someone else, etc.
Mail doesn’t spontaneoulsy generate outgoing server entries, but it keeps information about outgoing (SMTP) servers in a separate list independently of the mail accounts themselves. The account settings just associate one of the available outgoing servers with each account. Deleting an account doesn’t remove from the list the outgoing server that was associated with it. Orphaned or dangling outgoing server entries (i.e. not associated with any account) sometimes cause weird sending problems, and could very well have been the problem in your case as well.
As you appear to have already found out, you may go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), choose Edit Server List from the popup menu, and delete any servers that shouldn’t be there — the Edit Server List panel shows the account each outgoing server is associated with.

E-Mail sending problems on STMP account

I get this message every time I try and send a message through apple mail and the STMP server and can't figure out how to send e-mails. I have deleted my mail account and tried other things on different threads. I can't figure out what to do about this PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!!-- Here is the message I recieve when I attempt to send mail: *Sending the message content to the server failed*

Hello,
Same story here (see my other post - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1220979&tstart=0).
This is a serious bug Apple. How about some help? I'm willing to provide logs, access to my machine, whatever you need to get the job done.
Thanks in advance,

Booting with FileVault takes 'forever' (6 mins!)

A couple of weeks ago I turned on FileVault on my 2014 Mac Pro running Mavericks 10.9.3. The first couple of weeks everything was OK but since a week the first logon after boot seems to take forever:
it takes 6 minutes after I enter the password for the first time after startup before the desktop appears (only the apple logo is visible with a spinning wheel)
there is no message in the System log during 6 minutes (for example I see '7:05:02 Boottime' and the 2nd message in the log is '7:11:01 ...')
if I log out and log in (ie no restart) everything is running as before (from login to desktop takes a couple seconds)
What are the suggestions before I decide to switch off FileVault?

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/var/folders
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Send email takes forever

When sending email on my iPhone using my work email account and connecting to my home wireless network, it says "Sending..." and sits there forever. It works fine if I switch to another wireless network or 3G (and receiving email works in all cases). So sounds like something wrong with my home wireless network. But I can send email using my gmail account on my iPhone when connected to my home wireless network. So it's something about the combination of my home wireless network and my work email account. My home wireless network is using Airport Time Machine (with WPA/WPA2 Personal and PPPoE). My iPhone settings for my work email are: SSL, password authentication, no IMAP path prefix, and server port 993. My work email server is Zimbra Server. These settings work fine on other wireless networks (and 3G), and other people at work have same iPhone settings. I'll bet there is something odd about my home wireless network, but I don't know what it is. BTW, I've had this problem since iPhone 1.0 and I'm now on 3.1. Any ideas?

Many email programs, including Mail, will send data up to a certain size.
The good new - there are some solutions. You can compress the file and make the email much faster to send; you can download a free application like Compress, which also allows you to uncompress. Or, you can send your email via your webmail connection (your ISP, like ATT); if you manage your email through your desktop computer, the email should be sent just fine.
Apple Mail is designed for smaller documents, well under 1mb.

Mail Sending Problems

I have a client using Mail to access an IMAP account on our Merak Mail Server (Linux). When trying to send, she's getting the following error:
ERROR
This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
Verify that you have addressed this message correctly. Check your SMTP server settings in Mail Preferences and verify any advanced settings with your system administrator.
If she restarts Mail, then opens each message in the outbox, they go out. The problem seems intermittent. We have other IMAP accounts using Apple Mail with no trouble. She's getting incredibly frustrated, and so am I. Any suggestions?
Mac OS X (10.3.9) Mail 1.3.11 (V622)

Clint,
The first thing to check would be the cable -- a damaged cable could cause this random issue.
Second thing to consider, is probably MTU (maximum transmission unit) -- she may need to lower it, a bit -- see:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107962
which will explain where to change (even though not the exact issue), and what has been updated for 10.4, but for ethernet is basically the same thing for 10.3:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303192
Somehow the documentation has been messed up for addressing this in 10.3, but you should get the idea from these two articles. Change first to 1492, and then go down by 100 increments to see if the problem is resolved.
The speed and packet size used my her Mac might be different to others, or hers may not have correctly reached the right value, automatically.
Keep us informed.

Mail & Yahoo Mail Sending problems

Hello all, I have finally admitted defeat. I have been using Apple Mail to pick up my Yahoo Mail for a long time without any issues. Suddenly it has decided to not send emails...and I have no idea why.
I got the settings off of Yahoo's site. The pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk settings work but it seems that the smtp settings are the ones creating the issues. Currently they are smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk / server port 465 / SSL checked and authenicating with a password. I have used the connection doctor and it says that both incoming and outgoing connections are good.
Anyway, after trawling through the forums on Yahoo and here I have tried deleting all prefs, re-inputting all of the above information. No joy. I have tried changing the port to 587. No joy. I have tried turning off SSL and switching to port 110. No juice.
I have tried the same settings in Entourage but that doesn't work either. So, I am now throwing myself at these boards to see if someone - anyone - has a solution that doesn't require a stamp and an envelope.
Man, I can build and rig straight down the pipe but I can't send an email! Hummph.

Hi
I too am having problems sending email from my Yahoo accounts. I contacted Yahoo support and they sent me this to try.
1. Launch the "Terminal" application located in the "Applications:
Utilities" folder.
2. At the text prompt, type "telnet pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk 110" and press
the "Enter/Return" key. If you're successful, you should now see "+OK
hello from popgate." If you don't see this, close the window and start
over or check your Internet or network connection to make sure you're
logged on.
3. From this screen, type "user xxx" (where xxx is your Yahoo! ID) and
press "Enter/Return." You should be prompted with "+OK password
required."
4. Type "pass yyy" (where yyy is your case-sensitive password) and press
"Enter/Return." If this is successful, you should receive a prompt with
"+OK maildrop ready," followed by mailbox details. If this was not
successful, you'll receive "-ERR Error logging in. Please visit
http://ymailuk.com/."
5. Type "quit" and press "Enter" to sign off the POP server.
6. Type "exit" and press "Enter" to return to Windows.
If you weren't able to get the POP authentication during the first try,
please wait a few minutes and try again. After several tries, you should
be able to tell if your ID and password will allow you to achieve POP
authentication.
Next, check if you are able to communicate with the Yahoo! Mail Plus
SMTP server. Here's how:
1. Launch the "Terminal" application located in the "OS X Applications:
Utilities" folder.
2. At the text prompt, type "telnet smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk 25" and press
the "Enter/Return" key. If the port is not blocked, you should receive a
response similar to "220 smtpxxx.mail.yahoo.co.uk ESMTP" (where "xxx" is
the server number you connected to). If you don't receive this specific
response or if you get a different response, your ISP, networking
equipment, or security software may be blocking or scanning outgoing
mail servers.
NOTE: Please also try port 587 in place of 25. It's important that you
try the alternate port, as some ISPs will block port 25 by default.
Though it does mention Mail Plus in the instructions and I don't have MailPlus I was able to connect using port 587 to the SMTP Server.

Mac mail send problem

hi
a problem with mac mail. while the laptop is at the office the mail program works fine, out of office it does not - it recives mail but does not send. we have our own mail server (leopard server) it's on the office network. We use IMAP. We connect via VPN to our office network so the SMTP is always the same. When the folder username-library-mail is deleted mail recreates it and sends mails for some time but then stops.
Thunderbird in the same macbook works fine using same SMTP port
what causes this phenomena?

Apple Mail sending problems

I have a Macbook and it's working fine in my home office. I purchased a Macbook Air and set it up for traveling internationally. It was sending and receiving emails fine in the USA. I have three email acccounts including fastmail IMAP, gmail IMAP and a company Exchange account. About a week into my travels in Central Asia, I was not longer sending emails from Apple Mail. If I save a draft, it shows up in my Mail folders. But once I "send", the message is completely lost. The message is not in my folders. I've tested by sending to myself.
I've tried the following:
1) Deleting Envelope Index and reloading files.
2) Deleting Accounts and reloading preferences
3) Changing ports to 25, 465, and 587
4) Connection Doctor shows green light for all accounts.
5) Deleting com.applemail.plist and reloading
6) I use SSL and the above ports
7) My current setting for all three accounts is "Store sent messages on the server"
I can use Webmail but I would like to send from my email client - Apple Mail.
Any suggestions?

I have now identified the source of this problem.
I changed the title of my original Mail file by Old Mail.
I opened Mail and added only IMAP accounts (three). They all send and receive.
The Smart Mailbox files and Rules are still intact.
I copied Mailboxes into Mail. And now I cannot send emails. So there must be some corruption in the Mailboxes (On My Mac) that prevents sending.
Any thoughts on how to keep Mailboxes and get rid of corruption?
