My iCloud email won't sent from OS X Mail

Hey all,
I'm using the latest version of Mountain Lion. I recently tried to see if I could switch from using my MobileMe email address in OS X Mail to using my iCloud email address. iCloud seems to work on my iPad and iPhone... but everytime I try from Mail, the messages won't send. I click send and they just come back to me after a while, asking me to pick a different outbound server. Interestingly, the messages WILL send when I try to send via my MobileMe account.
Should I be using some sort of different server setting for the iCloud email?
Thanks,
Nick

No joy - I am still getting a warning sign popping up saying "Cannot send message using the server iCloud (iCloud)", along with a list of alternate SMTP servers to try, based on the other accounts my Mail program is connected to.
I wonder what the trouble is! Again, sending from my mobileme account/alias works fine.

There is no MobileMe anymore, you may have labelling problems.
In iCloud control panel deactivate Mail, then if you are still signed into Mobile Me, sign out.
Reactivate Mail in the control panel.

Emails won't send from any account

Hi all,
Had a problem for an unknown period of time now where emails won't send from Mail on the iPad. I had a couple of people ask me why I hadn't responded and after saying I had, they told me they hadn't received anything. I checked my sent box and the emails hadn't been sent.
I thought it was just with iCloud.
I have just tested it with another iCloud account and also my Gmail account and none of them will send an email. All work perfectly on my iMac - and Gmail works perfectly on my phone.
The strange thing is that I get the sent noise as soon as I hit sent, which is why there's been confusion. It doesn't sit in drafts or fail to send. There's no error. As far as you can tell it does sent - but it's never in the sent items/outbox and never received the other end.
Any ideas? Such a frustrating problem that I've never, ever had before.
Thanks for any help,
Ste.

Oddly, the test email sent from my Gmail account on my iPad has just appeared (after a five minute or so delay).
The email however, is still not inside the sent folder - there's still no record of it having been sent.
Problem persists in full for iCloud - nothing sending from iPad and being received by the recipient.

emails have been sent from my iphone and they are not from me. what do I do to secure this doesn't happen again? I've already changed password

I have this problem too, it's called "spoofing" aparently.
There isn't much you can do except change your email address which is a huge problem if like me you have an Apple one and can't change it without losing your whole iTunes and App purchase history which is a billiantly stupid bit of design on Apple's part.
There's some interesting stuff here: http://www.bluehostforum.com/showthread.php?132-how-to-stop-spoofed-email-addres ses
but I don't think there's much chance of applying it to iCloud but I am not an expert.

Mail crashes when viewing emails with attachments sent from outlook

This problem is intermittent -- and I have a hard time reproducing it consistently. This crash seems to creep up every two weeks.
When I click on an email that was sent from outlook that contains an attachment (usually word documents), mail immediately closes and I get the "mail unexpectedly quit, do you want to reopen?" message.
The only data loss is if I had any opened drafts that had not been sent, and mail does not keep any draft windows open. However, this is frustrating for my particular work flow, because I usually keep 10-20 drafts neatly tiled on my second monitor, so that I can quickly look at emails that are currently in my pipeline. I can go back into the drafts folder and re-open, but the drafts open in new windows at the default size, not small and tiled the way I like. .Mac also has a tendency to create and save duplicate drafts, so I have 100 drafts, despite only caring about 20 of them. I try to go through and delete old drafts once a month, but it's tedious. Going through and fishing out the current 20 drafts is annoying after this crash.
So I'm trying to figure out a way to avoid this crash. I read on a forum that this might be a problem with emails that are formated in HTML, and that I could use the terminal to force mail to display plain text by default. I used the following string:
defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool TRUE
I was expecting this to force every incoming email to be the same default plain text font, but it only seems to disable emails with heavy HTML with images and what not...
Any ideas about how to avoid this crash? Every time this happens I close mail and repair permissions, but it always happens again.
One additional note -- I have 5 accounts, and my inbox is very big (over 12,000 emails). Is this part of the problem?
Running OS 10.4.8 on a dual 2.7 ghz G5 with 1.5 gb ram. Mail version 2.1

What determines the address iCal email reminders are sent from?

*What determines the address iCal email reminders +are sent from+?*
On our g4 iMac, running Tiger, my wife has multiple pop3 email accounts. 6 to be exact.
She only has one address listed in her address book, and that is her own main primary address.
She recently started using iCal email reminders for reoccurring events. At first she was getting emails from her main address mailed to her main address. Works as planned.
But recently, she is getting reminders emailed to her main address send from one of her other POP 3 email accounts. This is not desirable. She needs them to come from her main address, the one that is her primary account and is listed in the address book. She is not sure what caused this change or why.
So the question is, what determines the address the email reminder is sent from and how can you change this to another address.
THX

Yes, that's what I thought too.
There is only one address besides the "APPLE" card in her book, and that is her primary address, and unfortunately, NOT the one her reminders are coming from.

Hello ggquilts,

I have NEVER used my icloud email address and am now getting spam mail to services I have NEVER signed up to. Should I conclude from this that Apple have sold my details on?
To tell me to mark it as spam is just not good enough. I do not want this rubbish cluttering my inbox.

Nobody want to receive spam, but it's a fact of life. Apple is certainly not selling your address on to spammers, and it's possible that the spammer has been guessing at possible addresses and has hit on yours.
A good third-party program for dealing with spam is SpamSieve - after a training period it's very good at identifying spam and shunting it to a Spam folder where you can check it and delete at your leisure. It works with iCloud.

ICloud email won't work after upgrade

iCloud email won't work after upgrade to Mountain Lion. Says pop 3 server is timing out. Solutions?

I'm sorry, as I keep saying... in MAIL I get the message that it cannot cannot to server!? Did you read the initial problem at all! I know exactly where mail is, although, the diagram was wonderful.
My problem is TWO FOLD.
The MAIL app doesn't work with iCloud but does work with my POP3 email for my office.
Second problem is the iCloud on Safari doesn't work as I get the error message as the screenshot above.
There is NO reason why the @me.com email shouldn't work through the iCloud site, as you can see, there is a also a Mail icon.

Try again later." A little lock is beside the email inbox account, no password prompted and account is online and enabled... Thoughts?

Have you tried clicking on the lock to see it it will then ask for a passwored. Otherwise, try reblooting.

Can you use Windows Live Mail to send/recieve iCloud email and share contacts or can I just use iCloud email on my PC without use Live Mail? I want to use one email adress, one contact list and one calendar. I want to be able to have access to all this on my iphone and pc.

You can only use Mail, contacts and calendars will not work, for that you need Outlook.

HT204088 I have received an email with a receipt to my iCloud email for a purchase from a apple store in Perth Australia...it does not appear in my purchased list but why did I get the email

I have received a receipt to my email address from an apple store in Perth Australia. No purchase history on my iTunes account but clearly someone else appears to have given my iCloud email...has this happened to anyone before? Should I be worried that someone has access to my account and emails. I sent a query to Apple and received a generic non answer......typical.

The purchase history on your iTunes account will only show purchases from the iTunes stores (iTunes, app store, ibookstore, Mac app store), not from Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.
Does anything show on your credit card ? If the email is genuine then it's possible that your and their email addresses are similar and that they gave the wrong id (or the store typed it incorrectly), it doesn't necessarily mean that anybody has access to your account.
For the contact, you will initially just receive an acknowledgement email, the proper reply may take 24 (possibly 48) hours.
