Try this first - 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.)
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.

Has anyone an Intermittent Problem sending mail from Mac OS X (10.6.8)?

I have a Mac mini operating on Mac OS X(10.6.8) Snow Leopard. In the last couple of weeks I have been having intermittent problems sending mail from Mac MAIL, especially if I hit the reply button. It whirls around for ever and then tells me to 'Try Later' or 'Try Again'. When I shut down my computer and open up mail again, I hear the mail whizzing off. I have just tried it now and it went in the time that it has taken me to compose this email. But sometimes the mail doesn't go at all. Could it me because I have too many messages in my inbox and sent boxes (around 1000 in each)? I read somewhere that you should delete Mail in library/pref/com.apple.mail.plst and reinstal it. But I'm frightened to do this in case I can't re-instal it as I don't know how to.

TS3899 iOS 6 problems sending mail on iPad

I just upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPad and can no longer seem to send mail from my gmail accounts or yahoo accounts. Any solution to this? It is frustrating!

As far as I know, never ever email problems come from OS. Being that OS Windows, Linux or OS X, or even iOS.
But what do I know? As far as I know if something gets you a message about SMTP server, it has to do with settings and/or yahoo/gmail server. But I may be wrong. As far as I know, the easiest way to establish if iPad has a problem is - to add another mail account and see if that works. If that does, you need to look at your account settings/security. Or your connection/network.

TS3899 My iphone has had problems sending e-mail via my 1&1 e-mail account

My iphone has had problems sending e-mail via my 1&1 e-mail account for the last two days. I get a 'recipient rejected by the server' message. I have not changed any settings. If I change the from address to i-cloud the e-mails go. Advice please.

i think you need to contact your email provider - that sounds like an issue on their end and nothing to do with your phone.

"I managed to solve the problem. Under smtp settings (mail preferences/accounts/edit smtp) I set the outgoing port to 25 (as recommended by Talktalk), no authentication (set to none) and unchecked SSL. I found that until I set the port to 25 and authentication to none I was unable to uncheck SSL. One I had done this I was able to send from my main email and other email adddresses set up under my account."
Superb advice R&W! My email sending block using TalkTalk started 2 months ago using Snow Leopard, continued when I upgraded to 10.8.2, and has been persistent on my wife's new iPad (IOS 6.1). Implementing your wise words has fixed all that, and now enables me to call her on FaceTime — previously only she could call me. Thank you so much; this will save hours of further fruitless searching and phoning.
Please remember that your email is now insecure, if you wish to have a secure connection SSL must be on and port 25 should be avoided.

IPad suddenly won't send mail

My iPad has suddenly stopped sending emails after sending them with no problem for 6 months. I've tried re-entering my smtp address, but all that seems to do is cause the settings screen to freeze so that I have to re-start the iPad. Any ideas? My outgoing email server is smtp.orangehome.co.uk

make sure if over wifi the wifi router don't block the ports required by the smtp
if over 3g contact the carrier
test if it's the case for both devices
verify not just the stmp server is correct also encryption, ssl authentication and ports and all other stmp settings are as the mail provides guide they could have changed it

Problems Sending Mail -- ISP or Mac Mail?

Typically, I need to send nearly every message at least twice -- once initially and however many times after that from the outbox until it finally goes. At times, I'll have mail stuck in my outbox for hours, if not days and often have to use webmail to send messages in a pinch (thus losing all the benefits of Mail).
I contacted my ISP and spoke to a technician who was very helpful and attentive. I sent him screengrabs of all of my settings and he confirmed they are set correctly. However, he dismissed my belief that this is related to the ISP and said that it is probably something to do with my Mac Mail client, or my home network configuration. He suggested I switch to Entourage or another mail client, which I don't want to do.
Either way, I'm skeptical about his response because prior to using this ISP I never had the problem with Yahoo using more or less the same configuration. (Both require authentication, POP3, etc.) Yahoo always accepted outgoing messages on the first try.
Has anyone else seen this problem and can they share advice on what they did to fix it, or is the ISP blowing smoke up my skirt?

I am also having problems sending mail. This has occurred for the past 6 weeks or so. Typically, I receive the drop down message about my ISP server: "Cannot send message using the server smtp.telus.net.....". I click the "try again later" button, open the Outgoing Mail box on Mail, click on the unsent email and it usually makes it out. This has become an annoying 4-step mail process.
I contacted my ISP and they did their little tests and said that it all of my settings are fine (I wasn't surprised; I haven't changed anything) and said that I should contact my Mail client, Apple.
I encounter the same problem regardless of who or how I send the mail...if I send to an address on the same ISP server, to mac.com, to yahoo, to private website accounts, etc. I've tried sending through mac.com, through my website account, etc. Nothing changes.
From the many posts about this problem, it seems to be widespread.
And sometimes, just sometimes, Mail sends my mail just like it did in the "good old" days, on the first click or keyboard shortcut.
Has anyone found a workable solution to this annoying problem?

Using header paramter SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH in Sender mail adapter

I am trying to check if an e-mail contains attachment in reciever determintion
I set the Variable Header XHeaderName1 to be SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH
in Sender mail adapter
I added a condition in the receving determintation
XHeaderName1 = yes
I see the DynamicConfiguration tab in sxmb_moni and the value of SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH is "yes"
but the message fails with the error
No receiver could be determined
any ideas?

Hi,
In Receiver determination you need to set SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes instead of XHeaderName1.
As far my understanding, in receiver determination you need to verify the condition with SHeaderX-MS-HAS-ATTACH = yes (check with syntax also ie. case sensitive and all)
Thanks

Problem sending mail from iPhone

Hello
I have a problem sending mails from a Horde account in iPhone 5S. I guess the problem is about configuring the outgoing mail server, but I tried several things and nothing seams to work. The message I get is :
"Can't send mail. No password provided for account x
Please go to Mail account settings and enter a password"
Here goes the detailed configuration of the SMTP:
SMTP server: mail.account.pt
User name and Password: xxxxxx
SSL: OFF
Authentication: Password
Server port:587
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help!
Best regards,
Pedro

After talking with my e-mail service provider I understood some more configurations, which might help you to help me:
SMTP Settings:
Authentication method: encrypted password
Connection Security: STARTTLS
How can I copy these settings into my iPhone 5S? In Authetication there's only the following options:
Password, MD5 challenge-response, HTTP MD5 Digest and NTLM...
Thank you!
Best regards,
Pedro Santos

Problem sending Mail

I am having problem sending mail in Outlook (not using express). I receive mail no problem at all and I don't want to change account to IMAP to send mail. So what are my options to make this work using Outllok?

Who is your internet service provider used for connecting to the internet?
Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server provided by your ISP and if so, can you send messages with this account?
Does GoDaddy provide/support an authenticated SMTP server?
Which server port are you using for this SMTP server - 25, 587 or something else?

Problem sending mail over GPRS/EDGE

problem sending mail over GPRS/EDGE
i am in thailand right now with my iPhone 3G 16 GB (italian, no SIM-lock, 2.2). my problem: the iPhone does not send emails via GPRS/EDGE of local AIS mobile provider (there is no 3G in thailand right now). each time i try, i will get a prompt saying 'cannot send mail, the connection to the outgoing server "mail.gmx.net" failed'.
in germany, i use a contract SIM from o2, in thailand a prepaid SIM from AIS. i have configured 2 german pop mail accounts on my phone (gmx.de, o2online.de). receiving and sending email work fine on WLAN (everywhere, also here in thailand) and in germany on 3G/EDGE/GPRS. internet works everywhere, too. so, configuration seems to be okay. for each account, i use the same (smtp) sending server for all networks (ie i do not change configurations, using mail.gmx.net and pop.o2online.de). for a test, i changed smtp server to the AIS proprietary server mail.cscoms.com, but no change in behaviour.
so, any ideas how i can get my iPhone to not only receive but also send emails via GPRS of AIS?
thank you!

ok. i found the solution.
The problem is not in the iphone, the problem was DNS resolution in the server side.

Problems sending mail

Hi folks, I am having problems sending mail. I have tried both Entourage and mail, and get the same problem that I can´t connect to the outgoing smtp server. I haven´t changed any settings... This just suddenly started happening. I can send mail with the exact same settings on another computer on my network here, so the server is in working order.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.

This issue should be brought to the attention of your ISP or whomever maintains your email server.

Outgoing server port configuring not in Mail 3.5 - problems sending mail?

I recently upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and one of the things I noticed is that in Mail 3.5 undere Mail>Preferences>Accounts under the Account Information tab, there is no longer the ability to select or change ports for the Outgoing Server.
In Mail 2.x, there was an Advanced button that would let you choose a different port and select SSL (or not). In Mail 3.5, this feature is missing. Does anyone know if the outgoing server port can be changed? The reason I ask is that when I travel, my ISP will not accept any of my outgoing mail because I'm not using my home IP address (especially with .mac). This is usually remedied by changing to a different, less common port for the outgoing server. If I'm unable to change outgoing server ports in Mail 3.5, is this going to cause problems sending mail when I'm on the road? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Ed

If you pull down the bar in the outgoing mail server, you should be able to select "edit server list" and the window shows up where you can set up port.

Problem sending mail to one domain

System: Netware 6.5.8 with all current patches.
We are having a problem sending mail to one particular domain (neigerllp.com). When a message is sent our GW GWIA returns a "553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)" error message. We receive that error because our mail server is looking at their secondary mx instead of their primary mx. If I unload named then our mail server looks for the secondary external DNS server and mail is sent without error to this domain. When named is not loaded it sends to the correct mx server listed. If I reload named it will work for a while but then default to the incorrect mail server. It also works for a while when I load named -pa, but eventually reverts back to the incorrect server. Could someone help me resolve this issue?
Thanks,
bp

Not here. It's a known GWIA bug. It doesn't look at the preference in
the MX record, but merely uses them i nthe order they come in. Your DNS
making a difference is a red herring.
Check if your GWIA is up to date. If it is, you will have to open a SR
with Novell.
