Ravi Shankar BHi,
Which mail server you are using ? Just go in to the inbox folder of your mail server and check if the message is present or not. Also check in the adapter monitoring whether there is any problem with the mail message. Can you plz more details about your mail server? How are accessing mails??

ICal Server email invitations with external mail server
So I see lots of people have worked out the kinks to get iCal Server to send invites to external email accounts when using the Mail server on the same machine as the iCal Server, but who has it working when the mail server is somewhere else? Any help would be appreciated... I have setup it up like this:
Email Address: [email protected]
Incoming Mail Server: mail.mailserver.com
User Name: com.apple.calendarserver (I created this account on the mail server)
Password: Same as the one in my keychain for com.apple.calendarserver
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.xyz.com
Username: com.apple.calendarserver
Password: Same as the one in my keychain for com.apple.calendarserver
When I send invites, this is what I get in the logs:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!Okay, got this figured out. Appears that the email server my client's company uses is terminating the connection when the Xserve tries to do anything. I setup a test Gmail account and used those settings instead and everything worked just fine.

Creating accounts and receiving email from a mail server
Hi,
I'm wanting to create a web application that creates a new email account for a user when they sign-up on my website. My application will process any email that is sent to that email address and extract parts of the email to store in a database.
I think I can use JavaMail to poll the email accounts for new emails which will then be parsed and inserted into my database but I don't know how to programmatically create the email account for each user. I'm looking at using either sendmail or postfix as my mail server and this is on either *nix or os x.
Any advice/pointers to Java APIs would be appreciated. If there's nothing available in Java that can do this kind of thing I'd love to hear about other solutions people know of or think might work :)
Thanks!
- EHi there!
Do the following
message.setFlag(Flags.Flag.DELETED,true);
folder.close(true);
store.close();
these 3 statements will delete email from the mail server.
get back to me after u try this.
ciao

How do I get my Third-Party Mail Server to deliver Mail quickly to BlackBerry?
With Gmail and Yahoo! the mail delivery is very fast. We own/use a Windows Mail Server that is IMAP/POP/Etc. but sometimes it take mail quite some time to display in the BlackBerry device. Is there a trick to it?
Thanks for the help.With BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) accounts e-mail accounts are polled every 15 minutes for mail. If mail is found then it is pushed to the device. Then the mail account is polled every 3 minutes (for 5 cycles) for mail. If there is no mail found, then it will be polled again in 15 minutes.
Gmail and Yahoo! Mail have special agreements with RIM that allow the mail to be delivered instantly, thus the instantaneous push. If you want your mail instantly pushed then you would need to create a BlackBerry E-mail Account (via your carrier's BIS web site) then configure your mail account to forward the mail to the BlackBerry e-mail account.
For example, let's say you have T-Mobile. You could create an e-mail account called [email protected] Then you would configure your third-party e-mail account to forward any e-mails received to the [email protected] address. This way the messages would come through instantly. More information on this is here: Methods of Receiving E-mail on BlackBerry
The only other option would be to use a BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) or a Hosted BES provider (like MailStreet or ExchangeMyMail). -
Hi.
I am in trouble setting up a basic mail server. I just spent the last 10 or so hours, in one more try to set it, and yet no results.
Please, give some help as i am becoming sort of desperated with it
This time, i followed this guide since the beginning.
What I've done:
- Created a user vmail, with home directory set on /var/mail/vmail/
- Had a LAMP server already working.
- Created two databases: postfix_db and roundcube_db, owned by postfix_user and roundcube_user respectively.
- Since it is for personal use and i don't use "old/odd clients like Outlook" i skipped smtps. And made the following files:

- Made directories writable for them.

- From what i can see, postfixadmin used and populated its database, but not roundcube.
- I can open postfixadmin and log in with no apparent errors (not that i know what to do with it instead of roundcube, but at least works...)
- Whenever i open roundcube it begins to output errors everywhere about db connection (I was only able after changing its .htaccess to Allow from all, is it a bad idea?)

How far am i to be able to send/receive one email? Please, tell me i am close...
Mail servers could be so much more linear to set up
Thanks for your help. Time to get some sleep!The roundcube db schema needs to setup manually. See /usr/share/webapps/roundcube/INSTALL
Also, from your /etc/webapps/postfixadmin/config.inc.php:
$CONF['domain_path'] = 'NO';
$CONF['domain_in_mailbox'] = 'YES';
$CONF['maildir_name_hook'] = 'NO';
..which results in /var/mail/vmail/[email protected]
From your dovecot.conf
mail_home = /var/mail/vmail/%d/%u
...which results in /var/mail/vmail/domain.com/user
That doesn't fit together. -
Mail server no longer accepting incoming mail
First off, let me just say that yes, I broke it. This is on an iMac G4 with Server 10.4.11.
So here's the problem. I am by no means a qualified Server Administrator, but since I am a relatively knowledgeable computer geek, my boss plugged me into this position while my department is slow. I've been tasked with figuring out a few nagging problems with slow mail delivery, among other things.
I did some serious Googling on the issue of slow mail delivery, messages getting stuck in queue, etc. I determined that the issue was with spam filtering and anti-virus. Following some great documentation from osx.topicdesk.com, I updated and configured clamav, amavisd, and spamassassin. Miraculously, this actually solved the problem, and everything was working great.
Until today. Today I noticed a log entry that reverse DNS lookup of the server's IP (192.168.1.1) had failed. Googled again and found some info on setting up DNS on the server, which I did.
There was a secondary goal for doing this. We are a small company that hosts our own email and a tiny web server on a machine at our corporate office. Our remote locations have always been able to get email from the server via POP3 using the FQDN mailman.mycompany.com, which has a public IP address. Our router is configured to forward traffic to that IP to the private IP 192.168.1.1. However, all users at the corporate office had to be set up to use server IP 192.168.1.1 to get their mail because there was no way to resolve the FQDN into an IP that was visible on the private network. Or maybe there was/is, but I don't know about it. Anyway, we have a couple mobile users that work at multiple locations. They are set up to use the server's FQDN, but every time they come to our corporate office, they'd have to change their mail setup if they wanted to get mail, because once they're behind the router, the FQDN doesn't work. I think that makes sense.
The Server is also the DHCP server for this site. Prior to this morning, it was distributing our ISP's DNS IPs. Once I'd set up DNS on our Server, I changed it to distribute its own IP as the primary DNS server, and per someone's post, I modified named.conf to include our ISP's DNS IPs. The server name I set up is 'server' and the domain is 'mycompany.com'. I also set up an alias of 'mailman' and set it as a mail server. I then went to a couple of workstations in the building and did a Lookup on server.mycompany.com and mailman.mycompany.com, both of which returned an IP of 192.168.1.1. I did a lookup on the IP and it resolved back into server.mycompany.com.
Figuring I'd accomplished enough for the first half of the day, I went to lunch. When I got back, I was bombarded with complaints that mails were being bounced when sent from inside the building, and a few people had received phone calls that mails sent to them had been bounced back to their senders. The error given is:
554 554 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied (state 14).
(This came from Google. The wording varies from person to person but it's always SMTP 554, relay access denied.)
In a panic, I un-did everything I'd done this morning, turning off DNS server, telling DHCP server to begin distributing our ISP's DNS IPs again, but I'm still having the same problem. I didn't see how this could be the cause, but did it just as a precaution.
I doubt I've provided enough information, but does anyone have any initial guesses as to what's going on here?
ARMThanks for the quick, easy fix. I'm curious if you know what I might have done to cause this to happen. I don't recall changing any Mail settings.
Sometimes Server Admin "forgets" settings.
Also, apparently something I did wiped out our IMAP mail store. I had a backup thankfully but wondering how I might have done that?!
Wiped out at the file level as in no contents in /var/spool/imap/user? -
Newie Mail server and running other services
We have a small office network of 6 macs that connect to a Panther server, this server provides DNS and file sharing and thats about it a Filemaker Sever and Retrospect Server. I doesn't suffer from heavy use
I have been using a a separate mac to run Quickmail server 1 (os9) and I need to upgrade it as some of the mail protocols are out of date.
We have a static IP address assigned to our mail gateway by our service provider.
My question or advice
Should I just start using OS X server to run mail services
or
Upgrade Quickmail and continue running it separately on a new mac mini (or similar)
My concerns are at the moment any problem with email locally can be solved pretty much without effecting the other server or the network.
ThanksThe basic setup is prety simple...
Replace following with your own equivalents...
Domain name: woopee.com (the domain name after the "@" in your emails)
Host name: mail.woopee.com (the hostname your MX record points to. Does not need to match server hostname. This will be the hostname mail server uses when communicating with other servers)
Local Host Aliases: woopee.com (a list of the domains you want to accept mail for. Probably just same as Domain name?)
Local network: 192.168.10.0/24 (LAN IP range for local users. Used to bypass authentication when they send mail out)
Server Admin-> Mail-> General...
Tick:Enable POP
Tick:Enable IMAP
Tick:Enable SMTP, Allow incoming mail, Enter Domain name & Host name (from above).
Mail-> Relay
Tick: Accept SMTP relays... Enter localhost IP: 127.0.0.1/32 and Local network (from above).
Tick: Use these junk mail rejection servers. Add: zen.spamhaus.org
Mail->Filters
Tick: scan for junk mail. Minimum score: 5 (can be reduced later)
Junk mail should be: Delivered (will just tag and forward to recipient)
Tick: Attach subject tag: * Junkmail *
Tick: Scan email for viruses
Infected messages should be: Deleted
Tick: update junk mail & virus database: 1 time per day
Mail->Advanced->Security
SMTP: none (this prevents smtp authentication from anyone outside your Local network)
IMAP: Tick: Clear, Plain, Cram-md5 (or leave all unticked if only using pop accounts)
POP: Tick: APOP
Mail->Advanced->Hosting
Local Host Aliases: Add: localhost & woopee.com (separate entries, see Local host aliases, above)
That's it (I think ...although I cannot guarantee I have not missed something). There will be no problem setting this up and seeing it going whilst still using the existing mail server. Set up client accounts to send and receive from new server and you can send mail around internally to test. Last thing would be to change your firewall port-forwarding for SMTP from existing server to new one.
Watch the mail.log in Console for any errors & do plenty tests.
Ensure users have mail enabled in Workgroup Manager.
There are plenty mods available beyond this. Have a good read through the mail services manual (I know its a bit confusing at times) and you should see where the above settings fit in.
Lots of stuff on the forum here which you can search for. Spam filtering in particular can be made far more effective but requires editing of the underlying unix configuration files - again, plenty of previous discussions about that on forum. Meantime, the zen.spamhaus.org RBL will filter out a great many spammers.

I can send but cannot recieve email
This is the messege I am gewtting:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “MobileMe” or try again.
The server returned the error: Mail was unable to log in to the IMAP server “p02-imap.mail.me.com” using “Password” authentication. Verify that your account settings are correct.
The server returned the error: Service temporarily unavailableAlso if I go to system preferences accounts and re-enter the password it fixes the glitch sometimes.

Need to have mail1 play nice with upstream mail server....
Switched to new mail server and hitting a problem. We have a debian linux box doing SPAM filtering further upstream from the mail server and then sending down to the new leopard mail1 box.
On the debian box we're seeing:
2009-04-03 09:14:08 H=216-174-222-148.atgi.net (email.wdcsc.org) [216.174.222.148] F=<[email protected]> temporarily rejected RCPT <[email protected]>: remote host address is the local host

And mail isn't piping thru to the mail1 box. Here's the main.cf

# The myorigin parameter specifies the domain that locally-posted
# mail appears to come from. The default is to append $myhostname,
# which is fine for small sites. If you run a domain with multiple
# machines, you should (1) change this to $mydomain and (2) set up
# a domain-wide alias database that aliases each user to
# [email protected].
# For the sake of consistency between sender and recipient addresses,
# myorigin also specifies the default domain name that is appended
# to recipient addresses that have no @domain part.
#myorigin = $myhostname
#myorigin = $mydomain
# RECEIVING MAIL
# The inet_interfaces parameter specifies the network interface
# addresses that this mail system receives mail on. By default,
# the software claims all active interfaces on the machine. The
# parameter also controls delivery of mail to user@[ip.address].
# See also the proxy_interfaces parameter, for network addresses that
# are forwarded to us via a proxy or network address translator.
# Note: you need to stop/start Postfix when this parameter changes.
#inet_interfaces = all
#inet_interfaces = $myhostname
#inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost
# The proxy_interfaces parameter specifies the network interface
# addresses that this mail system receives mail on by way of a
# proxy or network address translation unit. This setting extends
# the address list specified with the inet_interfaces parameter.
# You must specify your proxy/NAT addresses when your system is a
# backup MX host for other domains, otherwise mail delivery loops
# will happen when the primary MX host is down.
#proxy_interfaces =
#proxy_interfaces = 1.2.3.4
# The mydestination parameter specifies the list of domains that this
# machine considers itself the final destination for.
# These domains are routed to the delivery agent specified with the
# local_transport parameter setting. By default, that is the UNIX
# compatible delivery agent that lookups all recipients in /etc/passwd
# and /etc/aliases or their equivalent.
# The default is $myhostname + localhost.$mydomain. On a mail domain
# gateway, you should also include $mydomain.
# Do not specify the names of virtual domains - those domains are
# specified elsewhere (see VIRTUAL_README).
# Do not specify the names of domains that this machine is backup MX
# host for. Specify those names via the relay_domains settings for
# the SMTP server, or use permit_mx_backup if you are lazy (see
# STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README).
# The local machine is always the final destination for mail addressed
# to user@[the.net.work.address] of an interface that the mail system
# receives mail on (see the inet_interfaces parameter).
# Specify a list of host or domain names, /file/name or type:table
# patterns, separated by commas and/or whitespace. A /file/name
# pattern is replaced by its contents; a type:table is matched when
# a name matches a lookup key (the right-hand side is ignored).
# Continue long lines by starting the next line with whitespace.
# See also below, section "REJECTING MAIL FOR UNKNOWN LOCAL USERS".

# mail.$mydomain, www.$mydomain, ftp.$mydomain
# REJECTING MAIL FOR UNKNOWN LOCAL USERS
# The local_recipient_maps parameter specifies optional lookup tables
# with all names or addresses of users that are local with respect
# to $mydestination, $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces.
# If this parameter is defined, then the SMTP server will reject
# mail for unknown local users. This parameter is defined by default.
# To turn off local recipient checking in the SMTP server, specify
# local_recipient_maps = (i.e. empty).
# The default setting assumes that you use the default Postfix local
# delivery agent for local delivery. You need to update the
# local_recipient_maps setting if:
# - You define $mydestination domain recipients in files other than
# /etc/passwd, /etc/aliases, or the $virtual_alias_maps files.
# For example, you define $mydestination domain recipients in
# the $virtual_mailbox_maps files.
# - You redefine the local delivery agent in master.cf.
# - You redefine the "local_transport" setting in main.cf.
# - You use the "luser_relay", "mailbox_transport", or "fallback_transport"
# feature of the Postfix local delivery agent (see local(8)).
# Details are described in the LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README file.
# Beware: if the Postfix SMTP server runs chrooted, you probably have
# to access the passwd file via the proxymap service, in order to
# overcome chroot restrictions. The alternative, having a copy of
# the system passwd file in the chroot jail is just not practical.
# The right-hand side of the lookup tables is conveniently ignored.
# In the left-hand side, specify a bare username, an @domain.tld
# wild-card, or specify a [email protected] address.
#local_recipient_maps = unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps
local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps
#local_recipient_maps =
# The unknown_local_recipient_reject_code specifies the SMTP server
# response code when a recipient domain matches $mydestination or
# ${proxy,inet}_interfaces, while $local_recipient_maps is non-empty
# and the recipient address or address local-part is not found.
# The default setting is 550 (reject mail) but it is safer to start
# with 450 (try again later) until you are certain that your
# local_recipient_maps settings are OK.
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
# TRUST AND RELAY CONTROL
# The mynetworks parameter specifies the list of "trusted" SMTP
# clients that have more privileges than "strangers".
# In particular, "trusted" SMTP clients are allowed to relay mail
# through Postfix. See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions parameter
# in postconf(5).
# You can specify the list of "trusted" network addresses by hand
# or you can let Postfix do it for you (which is the default).
# By default (mynetworks_style = subnet), Postfix "trusts" SMTP
# clients in the same IP subnetworks as the local machine.
# On Linux, this does works correctly only with interfaces specified
# with the "ifconfig" command.
# Specify "mynetworks_style = class" when Postfix should "trust" SMTP
# clients in the same IP class A/B/C networks as the local machine.
# Don't do this with a dialup site - it would cause Postfix to "trust"
# your entire provider's network. Instead, specify an explicit
# mynetworks list by hand, as described below.
# Specify "mynetworks_style = host" when Postfix should "trust"
# only the local machine.
#mynetworks_style = class
#mynetworks_style = subnet
#mynetworks_style = host
# Alternatively, you can specify the mynetworks list by hand, in
# which case Postfix ignores the mynetworks_style setting.
# Specify an explicit list of network/netmask patterns, where the
# mask specifies the number of bits in the network part of a host
# address.
# You can also specify the absolute pathname of a pattern file instead
# of listing the patterns here. Specify type:table for table-based lookups
# (the value on the table right-hand side is not used).
#mynetworks = 168.100.189.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8

#mynetworks = hash:/etc/postfix/network_table
# The relay_domains parameter restricts what destinations this system will
# relay mail to. See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions description in
# postconf(5) for detailed information.
# By default, Postfix relays mail
# - from "trusted" clients (IP address matches $mynetworks) to any destination,
# - from "untrusted" clients to destinations that match $relay_domains or
# subdomains thereof, except addresses with sender-specified routing.
# The default relay_domains value is $mydestination.
# In addition to the above, the Postfix SMTP server by default accepts mail
# that Postfix is final destination for:
# - destinations that match $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces,
# - destinations that match $mydestination
# - destinations that match $virtual_alias_domains,
# - destinations that match $virtual_mailbox_domains.
# These destinations do not need to be listed in $relay_domains.
# Specify a list of hosts or domains, /file/name patterns or type:name
# lookup tables, separated by commas and/or whitespace. Continue
# long lines by starting the next line with whitespace. A file name
# is replaced by its contents; a type:name table is matched when a
# (parent) domain appears as lookup key.
# NOTE: Postfix will not automatically forward mail for domains that
# list this system as their primary or backup MX host. See the
# permit_mx_backup restriction description in postconf(5).
#relay_domains = $mydestination
# INTERNET OR INTRANET
# The relayhost parameter specifies the default host to send mail to
# when no entry is matched in the optional transport(5) table. When
# no relayhost is given, mail is routed directly to the destination.
# On an intranet, specify the organizational domain name. If your
# internal DNS uses no MX records, specify the name of the intranet
# gateway host instead.
# In the case of SMTP, specify a domain, host, host:port, [host]:port,
# [address] or [address]:port; the form [host] turns off MX lookups.
# If you're connected via UUCP, see also the default_transport parameter.

# INPUT RATE CONTROL
# The in_flow_delay configuration parameter implements mail input
# flow control. This feature is turned on by default, although it
# still needs further development (it's disabled on SCO UNIX due
# to an SCO bug).
# A Postfix process will pause for $in_flow_delay seconds before
# accepting a new message, when the message arrival rate exceeds the
# message delivery rate. With the default 100 SMTP server process
# limit, this limits the mail inflow to 100 messages a second more
# than the number of messages delivered per second.
# Specify 0 to disable the feature. Valid delays are 0..10.
#in_flow_delay = 1s
# ADDRESS REWRITING
# The ADDRESS_REWRITING_README document gives information about

# "USER HAS MOVED" BOUNCE MESSAGES
# See the discussion in the ADDRESS_REWRITING_README document.
# TRANSPORT MAP
# See the discussion in the ADDRESS_REWRITING_README document.
# ALIAS DATABASE
# The alias_maps parameter specifies the list of alias databases used
# by the local delivery agent. The default list is system dependent.
# On systems with NIS, the default is to search the local alias
# database, then the NIS alias database. See aliases(5) for syntax
# details.
# If you change the alias database, run "postalias /etc/aliases" (or
# wherever your system stores the mail alias file), or simply run
# "newaliases" to build the necessary DBM or DB file.
# It will take a minute or so before changes become visible. Use
# "postfix reload" to eliminate the delay.
#alias_maps = dbm:/etc/aliases
#alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
#alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, nis:mail.aliases
#alias_maps = netinfo:/aliases
# The alias_database parameter specifies the alias database(s) that

# ADDRESS EXTENSIONS (e.g., user+foo)
# The recipient_delimiter parameter specifies the separator between
# user names and address extensions (user+foo). See canonical(5),
# local(8), relocated(5) and virtual(5) for the effects this has on
# aliases, canonical, virtual, relocated and .forward file lookups.
# Basically, the software tries user+foo and .forward+foo before
# trying user and .forward.
#recipient_delimiter = +
# DELIVERY TO MAILBOX
# The home_mailbox parameter specifies the optional pathname of a
# mailbox file relative to a user's home directory. The default
# mailbox file is /var/spool/mail/user or /var/mail/user. Specify
# "Maildir/" for qmail-style delivery (the / is required).
#home_mailbox = Mailbox
#home_mailbox = Maildir/
# The mail_spool_directory parameter specifies the directory where
# UNIX-style mailboxes are kept. The default setting depends on the
# system type.
#mail_spool_directory = /var/mail
#mail_spool_directory = /var/spool/mail
# The mailbox_command parameter specifies the optional external
# command to use instead of mailbox delivery. The command is run as
# the recipient with proper HOME, SHELL and LOGNAME environment settings.
# Exception: delivery for root is done as $default_user.
# Other environment variables of interest: USER (recipient username),
# EXTENSION (address extension), DOMAIN (domain part of address),
# and LOCAL (the address localpart).
# Unlike other Postfix configuration parameters, the mailbox_command
# parameter is not subjected to $parameter substitutions. This is to
# make it easier to specify shell syntax (see example below).
# Avoid shell meta characters because they will force Postfix to run
# an expensive shell process. Procmail alone is expensive enough.
# IF YOU USE THIS TO DELIVER MAIL SYSTEM-WIDE, YOU MUST SET UP AN
# ALIAS THAT FORWARDS MAIL FOR ROOT TO A REAL USER.
#mailbox_command = /some/where/procmail

# has precedence over the mailbox_command, fallback_transport and
# luser_relay parameters.
# Specify a string of the form transport:nexthop, where transport is
# the name of a mail delivery transport defined in master.cf. The
# :nexthop part is optional. For more details see the sample transport
# configuration file.
# NOTE: if you use this feature for accounts not in the UNIX password

# JUNK MAIL CONTROLS
# The controls listed here are only a very small subset. The file
# SMTPD_ACCESS_README provides an overview.
# The header_checks parameter specifies an optional table with patterns
# that each logical message header is matched against, including
# headers that span multiple physical lines.
# By default, these patterns also apply to MIME headers and to the
# headers of attached messages. With older Postfix versions, MIME and
# attached message headers were treated as body text.
# For details, see "man header_checks".

# FAST ETRN SERVICE
# Postfix maintains per-destination logfiles with information about
# deferred mail, so that mail can be flushed quickly with the SMTP
# "ETRN domain.tld" command, or by executing "sendmail -qRdomain.tld".
# See the ETRN_README document for a detailed description.
# The fast_flush_domains parameter controls what destinations are
# eligible for this service. By default, they are all domains that
# this server is willing to relay mail to.
#fast_flush_domains = $relay_domains
# SHOW SOFTWARE VERSION OR NOT
# The smtpd_banner parameter specifies the text that follows the 220
# code in the SMTP server's greeting banner. Some people like to see

# PARALLEL DELIVERY TO THE SAME DESTINATION
# How many parallel deliveries to the same user or domain? With local
# delivery, it does not make sense to do massively parallel delivery
# to the same user, because mailbox updates must happen sequentially,
# and expensive pipelines in .forward files can cause disasters when
# too many are run at the same time. With SMTP deliveries, 10
# simultaneous connections to the same domain could be sufficient to
# raise eyebrows.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS RE: iCLOUD MAIL SERVER DROPOUT
Here's what I learned throughout this and I will post a discussion in a separate thread for the rest of the folk out there.
MYTHS AND FACTS RE: iCLOUD MAIL SERVER DROPOUT- WHAT I'VE LEARNED
Hopefully this troubleshooting helps everyone that has had or having issues, for now and for the future...
Firstly, the Apple system status is a bit of a myth. Because it is a global community of people using iCloud, it does not always update in real time. The Apple techs check this when there is issues, as do the public, so odds are unless every single person is having issues around the globe, then it won't reflect an issue. http://www.apple.com/au/support/systemstatus/
Apple technicians work in territories. For example, I live in Australia so I had to deal with a tech supervisor who looks after Australasia and who is based in Singapore. They don't get a notification if a group of people in Canada are having problems, even if they are identical to mine, unless as above, the whole world is having issues.
CHECK THESE FORUMS as a first step measure to work out if the problem seems to be just you and your account, or a wider community. Particularly before you make any major change to your email accounts, passwords, computers or phones.
If you get an issue in the next week or so (and keep in mind for the future) Error Message: "MY NAME" returned the error "[AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed." Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try re-entering your password?" and this happens multiple times when you know the password is correct, then odds are that the server is down and you are best to wait it out. Try checking your mail via iCloud to test. If you can send it through there, odds are that the glitch has nothing to do with your password or issues with your account and rather than make changes, try and wait it out.
If all of your folders in your email disappear, if they are IMAP folders, then log into iCloud mail in your web browser to check that they are still there. It just means that your mail client (Mac Mail, Outlook for Mac etc) can't access the IMAP folders via the server. Don't panic until they are gone from every device you use your email on.
Be wary of deleting ANYTHING from your computer unless you are backing it up first. For example, I had a tech guy on the first day of the server drop out, who gave me the wrong advice of deleting EVERYTHING from my keychain. This resulted in me having massive security issues for web browsers and thus, I couldn't log into my iCloud mail in my browser. Not only did I have to re-install my OS Maverick to fix it (which took 10 hours) but I could have muddled through this mess by continuing to work using web mail.
If everyone seems to be having a mail server problem based on online community discussions, then you are not alone and TELL your Apple tech this. Send copies of the links to the various conversations. Push them (nicely) to investigate internally what is going on and don't let them rely on the System support status. It also helps to put in a report to Apple down the track.
Make sure that you can get a copy of Apple tech guys email address. Thankfully, even though I was on the phone to them for in excess of 7 hours over the past two days, I could update my guy via email and also send him screen shots of things that did or didn't work using my iPhone. We would keep in contact and all I would have to do is send him an email and he would call me back straight away. No holding or dealing with any call centre issues, which is probably the only reason why I didn't lose my cool too much.
If you can get into your iCloud through your web browser, you have the options under the inbox and then the little wheel thing down the bottom (preferences) to put a vacation message, like an out of office. Put that on and explain you are having email issues and give another email address or your contact number. At least the people that you need to contact will know that things could get lost in cyberspace. I wish I had of known this earlier.
You can also forward emails emails to another email address under preferences. Also very handy.
Become friends with your tech guy rather than enemies. If you don't feel like your tech guy knows what he's talking about, politely request to speak to a supervisor. I would be having a nervous breakdown right now (small business owner, lost two days of billable hours so I am financially behind) if I didn't have a good relationship with the guy that has been helping me. We are a good team, with me updating him with the information, via these forums, to find a proper solution to the issue and to rectify the wrong information I was given by the previous Apple tech guy I spoke to.
Ask them to replicate your issue on their side of the fence to troubleshoot. For example, my tech guy Levi replicated my issue with websites by intentially removing the system certificate from his computer and he realised that was what the problem was, and thus he could quickly find out how to fix it.
Back up your stuff regularly. It might be annoying but it is peace of mind if know you are only going to lose a minimum of a week's worth of stuff.
Apple has an engineering team and tech guys raise 'tickets' to them with information on what has happened to their clients. I don't know much about this but I would assume it is having the engineering team investigate to stop this happening in future. They can only work with the feedback they get I suppose. I would also suggest doing the Apple Care survey so they also get feedback. We need to explain to them that we are asking for communication first and foremost - whilst it is inconvenient, if we all knew when and where they would be doing server upgrades (which the rumours indicate that this is what happened) then I don't feel everyone would be so frustrated.
Using your computer is like raising a child - you know when something is not right, even if you are not experienced at it yet. Sure, you may not know the lingo but trust your instincts and tell your tech guy. I have learned more in the past two days about computers and Mac's than ever before and I know when I can confidentially say that strange things were happening to my Mac and where Apple went wrong in guiding me. Don't always take a blanket or easy explanation if you don't think it is right; odds are it will result in making changes to your product that do more harm than good.
Keep a record of notes of how much time you have spent on the issue (including phone calls to Apple), what they have told you to do and at what time, changes to passwords, troubleshooting tips and the contact details (and reference numbers) of who you speak to. I'm not sure if Apple provides compensation for these issues or anything along these lines, but I certainly will be informing them so they can try and better their service to me in the future.
Anyway, I hope that helps everyone a bit - these are just things that I have learned and if anyone else has any tips please feel free to add them.Tried port 465 but it wouldn't work.
Went to our help desk and here's the reply I got (paraphrased slightly cuz the person at the help desk was trying hard to be helpful and I don't want to get him/her in trouble):
I presented this question to the university team and then waited for a long time to get the following reply:
we do not allow relay from non-university IP addresses.
port 25 for smtp is a standard worldwide.
For the most part, that went right over my head and didn’t answer anything, but I hope it means something to you.
I called him to get more clarification, but all I really got out of it was that, if you don’t use exchange which is secure via port 443, then your other option is to use smtp. And then he said something about how relay, iron ports, and authenticated accounts work together to make it secure. I know it makes me sound a lot more inept than I am, but all that made little sense to me. What I gather, is… that by selecting SSL when configuring your client, it makes it so that your login info and mail content is safe. Sorry, I can’t provide a more cohesive and comprehensive explanation, but I think the bottom line is that they have combined a non-secure protocol with other stuff to make it secure.
So, I'm hoping that checking SSL and using port 25 somehow solves the problem to the satisfaction of our IT professionals at the University ...
Again, thanks for taking the time to educate the rest of us! -
When trying to update my Mail Account Mailbox Behaviours settings, after making the changes when I try to close the settings pane the following messages occur: Invalid Incoming Mail Server The “Incoming Mail Server” field cannot be empty. The incoming mail server box has in light grey colour: p02-imap.mail.me.com in it and I cannot edit its content. Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?
Hi all,
Mattreichenbach is probably on the right track here with a reset of settings. I think I've determined the issue has to do with cached account information and inconsistencies for the account name. This seems to crop up when I've changed my password and it hasn't propagated fully to all the servers, devices, certificates, etc.
Hopefully many here are on their way to restoration of service by now but it's clear that a lot of people are having the same issues. Very frustrating and definitely something Apple needs to resolve: incoming mail server field grayed out, incorrect autopopulation of different fields, other unanticipated behaviors. If you're still having issues, though, here's what worked for me...
First, head to the iCloud preferences pane in System Configuration and choose "Sign Out". When I did this it prompted me with a number of "are you sure" type questions about retaining information on my local machine. I chose to delete/remove the info each time simply because it should all be restored by the cloud and I didn't want to risk a massive duplication of my data... I will say, I'm back up and running with no issues so I suspect you can make the same delete/remove choices... But use your own judgment. I don't want you to lose any data (ie.. please use care as you do this because I cannot bear the thought of causing anyone to experience the pain of data loss).
Once you've signed out of iCloud, restart your system. When you get back in, head to the Mail, Contacts and Calendars section of your System Preferences and add your account back by choosing the brushed aluminum "iCloud" button. When it asks for your account name, use your @iCloud.com email address. I am all but certain my issue had started because one of my devices (iPhone or whatever) had been set up with an email alias specified instead of my @iCloud.com address.
Apple, if you're reading through any of these issues (there are TONS of users having this same problem). Take note, that your icloud service somewhat frequently is not responding and yet tells the user that the password is wrong and this prompts people to be changing their passwords unnecessarily. This has happened to me on numerous occasions. Also, I noticed that last week's outage corresponded to a VERY similar outage exactly one year ago to the day. Sounds like planned maintenance to me and I think you could do a better job notifying folks so we're not wasting HUGE amounts of time troubleshooting a problem that we have no hope of fixing.
Hope that helps some of you!
