Mail sends but won't receive

My problem started out with one of my mailboxes' passwords not sticking. I'm still having that problem. Now my other one will not download any new messages from the server but I did send a link to a friend this morning, so something's connecting. The error message on the supposed "good" mailbox said "there may be a problem with the mail server or network. And that "the connection to the server on port 995 timed out."
I"ve changed nothing in preferences except tried to input the correct password on the "bad" mailbox.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Mac Mail sends but does not receive

Hi
Big problem!
Just upgraded to Lion - and this problem was on Snow Leopard too - I tried to upgrade to sort this out!
Mail sends emails but does not recieve.
I own the server where it is trying to connect to - the emails are there - I can see them through webmail.
I have set up different email accounts on Mail and exactly the same for all domains and email accounts.
I have re-installed Mail - exactly the same happens.
I have used Thunderbird and it works!
So it has to be a Mail problem. Server is fine, OS is fine, other email is fine. Mail is the problem.
I think it has to do with keychain? Not sure though... I have tried literally hundreds of things but nothing works and I am at my wits end and run out of ideas!
Any suggestions would be warmly received!!
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have the same problem with my incoming mail. I talked to the folks at Frontier (my ISP). They verified that a
test message I had sent was received. All account info appeared to be ok. I click on "get mail" and I do not
receive any new incoming messages. All connections succeed Using Connection Doctor, although the connection to smtp.frontiernet.net spins quite awhile before succeeding.
While I was composing this reply, I decided to try to send a test message to my wife's account. It came
through ok. I think I might have to contact Frontier again on this. When I set her account up they gave me a
different Incoming Mail Server name to use: pop3.frontier.com, whereas mine is: pop3.frontiernet.net. I believe
new accounts are being assigned to: pop3.frontier.com.
Also, when I'm showing all inboxes, Mine all have a symbol after them that looks like a lazy z. I am not familiar
with this symbol, but since I'm having trouble, I suspect it is telling me something. Help on this??

Mail sends but will not receive gmail

I just upgraded to a new iMac and transferred all my data via Time Machine. My mail app will send emails but not recieve them. yesterday after reading on here that making a new account, I could fix this, I found that I I now cannot see any of my past received emails. That's very troubling.
Anyway, any ideas on why mail would send but not receive gmail?
Thanks!

What do you see for that account if you invoke Mail's menu option Window > Connection Doctor?
Pay particular attention to the settings under the "Advanced" tab for that account in the Mail preference "Accounts" panel.

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177 Series Fax sends but won't receive faxes

I can send faxes using HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177 Series Fax but I cannot receive them. I have faxed test pages and the setup is correct. Any suggestions?

Hello DBrad8,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to receive a fax using the Laserjet MFP M177. I will do my best to assist you! First, I need to find out what type of added features do you have on your fax line? Please post these information on this thread.
Do you have an answer machine on this line? If so, how many rings to answer is this set to?
Do you have an Internet Service on this line?
Please follow this entire HP document on Cannot Send or Receive Faxes. Run a fax test page and let me know if everything passed or if anything failed. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

Mail opens but won't receive emails (Mail 2.0.5 on 10.4.3)

I had recently upgraded to 10.4.3, and shortly after had to have my iBook (G3 800mhz) sent off to have it's logic board replaced. Now that i have it back, I've found when I open Mail, the program will open and the grey wheel symbol by the inbox spins and spins but never receives my emails from a POP account. I know it is not my ISP as I have a iMac G5 and can receive email on it and have never had a problem getting email on both of my computers from the same account. The G5 is still on 10.4.2
Has anyone encountered this?

More than likely. Apple hasn't specifically said there won't be another 4.x update, but I seriously doubt they'd bother with the impending release of iOS 5. The CDMA and GSM phones use different chipsets, which is why there is a disparity between the two right now. iOS 5 should unify the code base and get things back in sync.

Mail sends but does not receive

Since 10.6.2 I've twice had incidents of my SBC account going gray and not receiving mail. Problem exists on iMac, MacBook, and iPhone so it is not a machine problem unless all three have had settings corrupted via mobileMe. Mail present on ISP server. Send works. First incident cleared spontaneously but current incident persists. Preferences settings appear to be correct on all three devices. Authentication is by password. Port is 995. Ideas?

These sporadic losses of connections to the server are not new with Snow Leopard. I've had them more frequently in the past and the only way I've been able to deal with them is to tell Mail to check/reconnect again.

Iphone 3gs emails send but won't receive

I have an iphone 3gs. The tech guy at work gave me the settings to set my email up on a pop server. It sent my test email but it does not receive any emails. The error on my desktop computer email was:
The following recipient(s) could not be reached:
...............com on 1/22/2010 3:55 PM
No route was found for the recipient server. Please contact your system administrator.
The settings are the same for incoming and outgoing mail and I double checked it all. Any ideas?

The likely explanation is that the settings you used for your POP (receiving) server are wrong.
The settings are the same for incoming and outgoing mail and I double checked it all. Any ideas?
The correct settings for the POP server are often different from the SMTP (sending) server.

E72 sends email, but won't receive

I posted this last week at the end of a year old post, but only received word from the original poster telling that his fix was to get an I-Phone. After many years of dealing with Nokia idiosyncrasies, several months ago, I too gave up and got an I-Phone. It is beautifully reliable. Unfortunately, my daughter's phone died, and a friend gave me a new E72 for her. It looks like I'm back to Nokia reliability. Can anyone help restore my continually fading faith in Nokia? Here's my problem:
I've set up email manually, through the set up wizard, and I'm attempting to point "Sync Email " to one the of many accounts now in my phone. The email accounts can send, but won't receive. I have gotten into a never ending loop:
The help screen says to "To start synchronising email messages between your device an the e-mail server, select options>synchronise" However, there is no "synchronise" under options.
If I go into "messaging">options>settings>email", all the emails accounts that I have created show, but if I go into "messaging">options>settings>sync email", it shows "Mailbox in Use" "None".
When I click on "none", I get the message "No Mailbox defined. Define now?
Sure, I'll try it again. I click "yes"
My old friend the email set up wizard appears. Create another account.
Goto 1
I've contacted Nokia. First, I was told to pull the battery and wait 5-10 mins. Same problem. Next, I was told to do a factory reset. Same problem. Finally, I was told that if it wasn't a tested pop3 (gmail, yahoo, etc), Nokia doesn't support it. I doesn't seem to matter that every Nokia I have had in the past work with my email server.
Has anyone found a Nokia-based solution to this problem?
Thank you for putting up with my frustration and for offering any possible solutions that you can suggest.
John

Hey Jason,
I have ran into this situation quite a few times in my experiences with fax issues, it very well could be the digital line itself. My last suggestions for you would be to try a power reset on the printer, and also try a filter on the fax line to see if that could help the line. If you are still having issues with sending faxes, give us a call to our technical support to see if there are any more options for you.
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
Here is an example of a filter:

Why will "mail" send but not receive?

TS3276 I have my email set up, I can send, but I cannot receive mail. What could be wrong ?

I have my email set up, I can send, but I cannot receive mail. What could be wrong ?

SMTP is the protocol used to send mail, where IMAP and POP are the protocols used to receive mail. ISPs can have different servers for these protocols.
In this case, the specified receiving (IMAP or POP) server, or the receiving user and password credentials, are likely incorrect.
What does the Connection Doctor diagnostic tool report?
Mail.app's Window menu > Connection Doctor
To check or change the settings, select Mail.app's Mail menu > Preferences... > Accounts and select the account you need to edit in the left column.
The receiving information will be displayed for the selected Account, with either POP or IMAP shown. Confirm with the ISP that your POP or IMAP mail settings are correct per the ISP's recommendations, as well. And in general, IMAP is preferable to POP, if you have the option of using either of those with your ISP.

Mail Sender to Abap Proxy Receiver with Attachements

Hi All,
Scenario: I need to create a ticket in Solman from a mail. I intend to do the scenario as Mail sender to Abap Proxy receiver asynchronous.
I have configured my sender mail adapter and am able to get the mails in XI. The attachements also appear in Inbound payload as MailAttachement-1, MailAttachement-2 etc. I have checked use mail packege and keep attachements in sender adapter.
Transport Protocol: IMAP4
Message Protocol: XIPAYLOAD
Queries:
1. My Inbound Data Type is the mail Package -- ximail30_xsd. Here in sxmb_moni I can see the mail attributes like from, to and the mail body in content. But How can I read the attachements in my message mapping.
2. How can I pass these attachements to Abap Proxy ( I do not need to alter attachments only pass to proxy ). These attachements have to be attached to the Solman ticket in SOLMAN server.
Appreciate your kind response to my above queries.
Thanks.
Regards,
Siddhesh S.Tawate
PS: I have tried using PayloadSwapBean in adapter module but still the content at source remains same.

Please observe how first and last line of attachement is calculated. That is what created problem for me initially.

Cant send but i can receive mails

Hi, anybody help?
Although i didnt change my settings, i can not send anymore but i can receive.....It says"can not send message using mail.(my domain)aristolea.com" - i am clicking on Connection doctor and its says "connection and login to server succeeded"..on outgoing mail server STMT i have the same as i used to have before: mail.aristolea.com and on the advanced settings the port is 110.
From my webmail i can send but not on my MAC.
Any solutions.

I've been having this problem since I recently flattened and reinstalled Snow Leopard. Mail worked fine on my new MacBook Pro running a preinstalled Snow Leopard (FYI: flatten because a scanner driver was slowing computer shut down time, and couldn't find the culprit file). Currently running OS10.6.4, Mail v4.3 (1081).
Here's the pattern...Start mail. Receives new mail fine. Attempt to send mail, error box appears "Mail can't verify the identity of smtp.mydomain.com Certificate for this server is invalid....etc". If I click connect, sometimes it will send. If it still won't send, I'll click try later. If I restart and try to send again first thing, I'll get the same error. However, if I quit mail, restart then click the "Get new messages..." first, THEN try and send...it will send successfully.
So the behavior is inconsistent, depending on the sequence in which I attempt to send an email. And, since mail can be sent perfectly fine sometimes (with the right combo of moves)...it would suggest my smtp settings are correct. Otherwise, I figure it would never allow me to send anything until I corrected some setting first.
Thanks for any help.
