OSX 10.8 server outgoing mail on hold

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to put the outgoing email on hold until authorization,on server 10.6 there where a simple checkbox for that, but on 10.8 I really don't know how to do that.
The only thing that I made for now to control the outgoing mail is the "always_bcc".
Thanks in advance.

I will just warn you here that it is often very difficult to make an Open Directory server unless all computers are running identical version numbers of Open Directory. So if you're having trouble with this make sure you are running the same version on all your platforms.
This is not true for the client machines, just to make sure that the Master and Replicas all play nice with one-another.

No. It is simply a conduit to send to other computers/iOS devices.
You really (really, really, really) should send that suggestion here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html
I have and I urge others to do the same.
Agreed! It would be nice to edit photos from the website. As it is, it's very easy to ADD photos to Photostream. I use Aperture, and all you do is click a button at the top of the screen. However, you cannot delete photos individually... go figure. To me, this is a stunning omission and makes the service much less useful.

How can I get the smtp server to work so that I can send out my emails on my mac-MAIL program
Irene Schmied

what is the smtp server info they have told you to use?
in Mail>preferences>accounts, make sure your TW account is selected in the left hand side of the window, then go to the Account Information tab, then go to the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) option at the bottom of that window, click on it, and go to Edit Server List, what is showing as server name? an if you click on Advanced, what is the server port, is SSL checked, and is authentication set to password, and if so do you have the user name and password entered?
let me know

Tiger Server Outgoing Mail Stuck In Queue

We are running Tiger Server 10.4.7 at our small school. All our incoming mail is suspended in queue. Our outgoing mail is just fine.
I looked in the mail log and it shows a zillion:
postfix/local[3144]: fatal: main.cf configuration error: mailboxsizelimit is smaller than messagesizelimit
We have no limit set on the size of messages that can be received...so what gives? In Workgroup manager we have 0 set in mail quota for everyone. From serveradmin/maintenance/mail queue I tried to resend..but to no avail. Anyone have an idea of how to get the incoming mail flowing?

The solution to our SMTP server / outgoing mail problem

Recent security-related revisions to our ISP's system (ATT-YAhoo) have required users to verify 3rd party e-mail accounts.
We learned, after several weeks and dozens of false starts, that the characters in Apple mail's account information fields (accessed via mail preferences: i.e. the Description field, e-mail address, user name, etc.) ** must be entered in lower case **
Upper case characters will generate a "rejected by server" error message. Eliminating upper case characters from all of these fields corrected what had become an extremely frustrating problem.

Thanks for the tip!

SMTP Outgoing Mail Server does not use password so I can not send mail..

Hi All
Can anyone help me with this?
My POP email accounts on Hosting.365.ie do not use a password to authenticate outgoing mail. They rely on a prior authenticated download to enable the outgoing mail server.
On my MacBook Pro there is an option in the SMTP server settings under authentication for "none' and all my accounts work perfectly on the MacBook.
However my iPhone4 (brand new) and iPad (both up to date) there is no option under the SMTP server settings for "none". I think this is the root of the problem. Has anyone else come across this or is there a workaround?
Many thanks if anyone has any insights.
Peter

Yeah, I don't know why the difference. Interestingly for me, the iOS version in iOS4.2 is "better" than the OSX version of Mail because now I can have more than one Exchange account.
I am sympathetic with your need to separate your lives. I have a client that accidentally got one of my alternate email addresses and cannot/will not update his address book with the "correct" address, despite my requesting several times over the course of a year. In any case, I don't think there is any way around this other than completely changing your email address. (If not a second Gmail, then Yahoo, Hotmail or other email provider.)
The only time I've ever seen a "no password" SMTP server was as I previously said, it used a "network authentication" method. Many, many moons ago, SMTP servers often didn't have password authentication so would often be used for spam relaying. Before mobile users, "network authentication" by ISPs was fine since they could figure out which user was spamming since they could trace the IP addr, MAC addr, etc back through the physical link to the user. But with mobile users who change networks constantly, the general trend was to password authentication, even for wired ISPs since their users would want to have access to send mail while away from home. (e.g.: you're a RoadRunner customer, but want to send mail while using your laptop on vacation in Italy.) This "prior authenticated download" I've never heard of anyone else doing.

Server rejects outgoing mail from PC's but will send mail from Macs

I am having a strange problem with outgoing mail all my mail clients are pointed to the server as smtp server. All mail from Macs are delivered without any problems but mail from PC's are universally rejected and I can't understand why. I did not have this problem with 10.4.11 and we do not authenticate. Here is the reject message:-
+Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.+
+Subject: hello 16:34+
+Sent: 26/08/2010 16:34+
+The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:+
+'user@cp-lighting..*' on 26/08/2010 16:34+
+504 5.5.2 <PHILSPC>: Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname+

This should help:
http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/145/84/
Will work without authentication as long as your network range has been entered into the postfix settings.
That said, you should require all your clients to authenticate to send through your server.

My MacBook pro has stopped connecting to the outgoing mail server smpt (Tiscali) server, still receives mail fine, and connects to the web. Any suggestions welcome.

My MacbookPro has always worked fine, receiving and sending emails through my server,Tiscali. I took it to France for a few days, and was able to receive emails and use the web (through the wireless router and server in our accomodation), although as usual when away from home, I couldn't send emails. I tried to set up a new outgoing email route using O2 (as suggested by a web article), but it didn't work, so I deleted it, and used Tiscali webmail to send emails.
When I returned home, I selected my usual outgoing server (Tiscali), but found to my great surprise, that I could no longer send emails - Mail timed out, 'unable to connect'. I noticed when clicking on: Mail - Preferences, that in the outgoing mail smpt box, Tiscali appeared, as usual, but now was followed by (Offline)
Receiving emails and web connections have remained fine.
I've checked with Tiscali, and they can't find any problem with their server or my settings. Grateful for any suggestions about possible causes for this problem, and how to fix it.

I have just tried attaching the ethernet cable to the MacBook to see what happens. The system is fine, but when starting Mail, it never opens and locks up. You eventually just have to force quit out of the program.

Outgoing mail server setup

Hello everyone,
I am having problems with setting up the e-mail response.
How do you authenticate the smtp server from FCS?
In the outgoing mail server, I put "smtp.broadband.myISPprovider.com" - string I got from them. There is nowhere in FCS to put user name and password for authentication.
The e-mail response does not even show in the "View All jobs" window like every other response.
I tried every flavor of the string, including the port :587 , my e-mail address and such with no luck.
What am I missing?
If anyone could help, please.
Thanks
Radek

Thanks Simon,
I've just spoken to Apple and sure enough, the outgoing mail needs to go through an open relay server for it to work. Well..., open relay servers are getting blacklisted by most ISPs because of all the spam. I also spoke to my ISP and they do not offer any open relay so I'm stuck. I don't want to leave our system vulnerable by going through some shady open mail server. Apple needs to figure out how to make the authentication possible from FCS.
Thanks again
Radek

Can I set my iCloud email as the outgoing mail server for my google apps email account in Mac Mail?

I have a google apps email account from an old client, all my work emails have been going to it for years. As I'm no longer affiliated with this client I'd like to make a transition to using my iCloud account for work. I asked people to use my iCloud address but as they've been using my google apps address for years it's what automatically comes up when they type my name.
I figure the easiest way to make a transition is if I reply to all the emails that arrive at my old address from my iCloud address and gradually they will start using my new address without realising it. But I can't find a simple way to do this.
In Mac Mail preferences > accounts > Google IMAP (my old account name) > Account information > Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) I'd like to set my iCloud SMTP server. But although my iCloud account uses its own outgoing mail server for its own account , it is not in the server list when I select my google account. I've tried to add it to the server list as smtp.mail.me.com but it caused my whole iCloud account to give me error messages until I force quit Mail...
Any ideas?

In iCloud/Mail, have you tried going to Preferences (select with gear at lower left)/Composing and setting a Send from address there?

How do I change my password on the outgoing mail server?

Getting a "Cannot Send Mail. The user name or password for "SMTP:[email protected]@smtp.aol.com" is incorrect" and I can not send any mail messages. The Outgoing mail server data is greyed out so I can not make changes. What do I do?

If you cannot access the SMTP server that way, then you need to remove the account from the phone and add it back again from scratch.

Outlook 2007 - Outgoing mail server from a 3rd party

I tried to set up the outgoing mail server for my Outlook 2007 with a 3rd party mail server. e.g. mail.xxxx.com, and I could not send the e-mail at all. If I set up the outgoing mail server as outgoing.verizon.net, I can send the email to everyone else but not to this 3rd party mail server mail.xxxx.com. I received the undeliverable message from Verizon that the mail was rejected due to not being able to log on to this 3r party mail server. I am working for this company from home and it requires me to set up this for my outgoing mail server. Does anyone know how to fix this, including specifying what needs to be done at the 3rd party mail server to change to accept emails sent from outgoing.verizon.net? Thank you in advance. Andy

Port 25 is the standard for SMTP, although some now use a submission port, 587. I know port 25 off network is blocked for residential users, I don't know if 587 is blocked off network because I have never tried it. I suspect it is. Verizon is by no means the only ISP to do this.
Business accounts do not have blocked ports as far as I know, so if you have a business account, you are free to communicate using port 25 anywhere.
Verizon has recently gone to non-standard port assignments for SMTP and POP servers. see

What is my outgoing mail server for setting up a new account in Mail?

Hi, I'm trying to set up a new account in Mail so that I check my school e-mail from that application and I've figured out what my incoming mail server is, but what where would I find the outgoing mail server if I want to send through Mail?
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Ask the company providing you internet juice to get online. If it is Comcast, it typically is smtp.comcast.net or mail.comcast.net. If it is Verizon, it is outgoing.verizon.net. If it is someone else it is some SMTP server that is assigned by the company that you pay your bills to get online with.

Mail Server "Type" and Mail Server "Address" for Incoming & Outgoing Mail

First, the only browser I use is Mozilla's Firefox, the best browser hands down. Second, I have both a Yahoo email account and a Google "gmail" account that I use regularly (daily). I am trying to set up a mail washing program to rid myself of these ridiculous spammers & scammers, however I need to the the Incoming & Outgoing mail server "type" & "address" to do this and I seem to have guessed the yahoo settings, but I can't seem to get the Google gmail account set up properly. Yahoo settings that worked are: Server Type="POP3" and Server Address="pop.mail.yahoo.com", with advanced settings: Secure Authentication=Required, Secure Connection (SSL)=Required, Store Cached Emails=Yes, Server Port Number=995 (set), Pipelining=Enabled. The equivalent settings for the Google gmail account result in an error message = "Failed to log into POP3 Server". Of course user name & password triple checked, Type=POP3, Address=pop.mail.gmail.com, and , Address="pop.gmail.com" tried also, Port and other settings the same. Where can I find this info for both accounts? Tanks a million! -jw

Yahoo and Gmail support should be able to help you.
Not related to Firefox support, web mail doesn't use POP or SMTP protocols which is what email clients such as Thunderbird use for communicating with email servers.
