Mypostoffice email recieves but will not send

Hi all,
Does anyone with the new iPhone 3g have thier broadband with The Post Office? I have sync'd my phone with itunes, as you do. It copied over the settings for my email, which works perfectly fine on my PC, on my iPhone I can recieve my emails without a glitch but I am unable to reply to emails as I keep getting the error message ' Cannot send Mail' 'The connection to the outgoing server "smtp.mypostoffice.co.uk" failed.'
I've checked the settings and everything seems as it should.
Anyone have any ideas or overcome this problem ???
Cheers.

Many ISP's don't allow sending of email if not on their network. When you are using the Cell you are attempting to hit their mail servers via your cell carrier and many don't allow it because allowing it also means they open their mail servers as relays for spammers.
I know here in the US AT&T has it's cpmx.att.net mail server you can opt to use instead of your outbound mail server.

My ipad receives email with the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message is "user name or password for ........is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad didnt help.

My iPad receives email on the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message reads "user name or password for smpt......is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad did not help.

I did try this too, but when I access my webmail on the iPad, the iPad doesn't allow me to type my message. I am able to enter in the "to" address and the "subject" line, but then the keyboard will not come up for me to type my message. Is there some trick to this? Very frustrating!

Of course you can't it is a generic document for use worldwide on every carrier mail service
The link will tell you how to set up with the info you will have received from TalkTalk when they installed your broadband
You just add that info for SMTP settings
in iPhone
settings>>>>mail contacts a7 calendars>>>chose relevant service (tiscali or TT which ever it is called >>>outgoing mail server
all as decribed in the above document
now read the doc again and follow the instructions once you have established the correct settings from your
TT documentation

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.

Since upgrading to v7 my email will accept emails, but will not send mail any suggestions?

Hello Lifechip,
Try a soft reset and troubleshoot the problem, if you do not know how to perform a soft reset click on the link below;
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1
If the problem persists, try logging out of email by going into
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Account > Delete Account
After you have done so, click on Add Account right below the list of emails, enter all your details.
Wish you good luck,

Which folder did you delete?
On the first account, assuming it's cali/cari.net
OS X Mail (Macintosh OS X)
Launch OS X mail and make sure that it is the active window on your desktop. Then do the following.
1. From the Mail menu, select (click) Preferences
2. In the "Accounts" dialog box, select the e-mail account to be SMTP-authenticated and then click the Edit button.
3. In the new Accounts dialog box:
1. Select the "Account Information" tab.
2. Under "Outgoing Mail Server:" click the Options button.
4. In the SMTP Server Options dialog box:
1. For "Method of Authentication" choose Password
2. In the "User Name" text box, enter your campus account ID.
3. In the "Password" text box, enter the password for your campus account.
4. Click the OK button to close the "SMTP Server Options" dialog box.
5. Click the OK button to close the "Accounts" dialog box.
6. Click the Close button.

Telus email account - can receive on pop but will not send on smtp?

Have set up Telus account as per instructions - will receive just fine but will not send (SMTP server not responding).

I have this problem to amongst other errors on a brand new iMac only 1 month old. Pretty "sad" with these multi million dollar companies that cant help out the customer and give out the proper instructions that MANY people are having . At least Telus makes an attempt to help,by logging in to your computer.Apple does nothing but help waste my time. I am already regretting getting this expensive thng and already having problems.Why cant it ever be just plug it in setup and go ?

Hey Butterworth,
You may need to use the information in this article to help you troubleshoot the issue with your outgoing server:

HT1277 my email displays but will not open, just the spinning icon

My email displays but will not open in my laptop or ipad. I just keep getting the spinning icon. I can recieve emails on my iphone. Any suggestions?

If Mail.app will launch on OS X and you can get to the Preferences settings and related, see the Apple Mail.app troubleshooting article for some suggestions. From there, get that working, then compare the differences between what's working and connecting, and what's not — the Connection Doctor and the Activity window should give you a pretty good idea of where things are hanging up — if not directly what's wrong — when troubleshooting the OS X Mail.app connection.

Mail receives OK but will not send for smtp account. Exchange server receives/sends OK

mail receives OK but will not send for smtp account. Exchange server receives/sends OK I'm away from home, using a family-member's wireless network that has always worked OK in the past. Today, the same problem occured while waiting in a hospital waiting lounge. Any ideas?

The outgoing mail server may be rejecting mail from your network address. Typically that happens when your mail service provider is also your ISP, and you connect to it from another network. The SMTP server will allow connections without a password from anywhere, but it will only relay mail from within the ISP's network. It could also be that your account on the server has expired or been suspended.
If you need to send mail from outside your ISP's network, use an independent mail service provider. I don't have a specific recommendation.

It appears you have a incorrect entry in the setup. Google for:
