Outgoing email problem solved

Several people have reported that after they switched to Yosemite, they can still receive emails on Exchange but they can't send emails. The problem may be attempting to send an email with a corrupted address. In Mountain Lion, attempting to send an email on Exchange with a corrupted address would trigger a warning saying the email cannot be sent. On Yosemite, there is no warning. The email with the corrupted address is held in the Outbox and all subsequent outgoing emails queue up behind it. It would save people a lot of time if Apple reestablished the warning. In the meantime, keep an eye on your Outbox.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • EMAIL Problem Solved!! Sending works on Roadrunner

    I'm on a Roadrunner account. It has been impossible to send email when I switch to the Edge network.
    Problem solved!
    Go to www.fastmail.fm and sign up for the "Member" level of service. It's a ONE TIME charge of $14.95. Not a big deal and you never have to pay it again. Now you enter in their smtp server address and authenticate with your new name and password. When the iPhone switches networks, it no longer matters!
    I know this involves paying a fee to get it to work. But it's the only way I have found to be able to use your own address to send and receive on Roadrunner. The gMail work around is fine but it's not the same as sending from your address that everyone knows.

    roadrunner is a problem depending on where you are
    connecting from. sometimes they may pick it up s
    spam and reject sending email.
    the easiest fix, and by far the cheapest (because it
    is free) is to simmply put in at&t's wireless smtp
    server info. under smtp server put in wcmx.com and
    leave username and password blank. that's all you
    have to do, and you odn't have to worry about being
    in an area where roadrunner rejects email.
    This works if you are on the Edge network outside a RR wifi connection. Once back to your home or office, you will not be able to send mail.
    The only options are:
    Create two accounts for each mail account--one with the RR info and one with the edge info. When you want to send a message, you send via the one that is currently connected.
    or
    Use an smtp server from fastmail.fm (or other) that will let you authenticate to send mail. Use that server as your outgoing mail server for POP accounts. It works, I'm using it now.

  • Outgoing email problem with Gmail via ATT

    I'm posting this on behalf of my mom, who's at her wit's end with her Mail program.
    She has AT&T DSL service, and uses Gmail for her mail. Also, she's running 10.5 on a Macbook. We've tried fiddling with things every since she got the system in the spring, but she's consistently had trouble connecting to the Gmail server, especially regarding outgoing email. Most of the time it takes forever for a message to send, if it ever sends at all.
    I use Comcast and Gmail and have never had any problems, which leads me to believe that this may have something to do with ATT(/Bellsouth). Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

    I have same problem with Apple Mail at ATT as ISP. I used the program ATTYahoo!EmailSetup from their website. Now I can rarely send any email, from my work email or from my MobileMe email. I seems like that program messed up the entire Apple Mail client so it can no longer send mail. Emails I try to send just sit the in Outbox. Does anyone have a solution?

  • Outgoing email problem message.

    My incoming email works fine but when i reply to send an outgoing email i keep getting the following message with any email i receive.
    " cannot send mail. one of the recipient addresses was invalid"
    i checked the addresses. everyone is correct and works when sending from my macbook. any suggestions??

    When I set up my new phone my e-mail provider bellsouth.net was set up for me via Itunes. I had the same problem in which I was able to receive e-mails but not respond to them. Dummy me called att and they got me over to a Iphone expert, or so called expert. He had me go through the standard re setting of all and later told me to delete the account. Once i began to set up the account from scratch it appeared he didnt know "jack" and hung up on me. So know in order for me to get the info back I need to restall all as new set up but still have have problem that I can not send mail. Anyone out there that has set up a bellsouth.net account from the add new account on the phone?

  • HT201320 outgoing email problem

    I have a new 5c Iphone and am having difficulty sending emails.  I can receive emails but cannot send.  Any suggestions - I have been on the Apple website and Charter website but the information has not worked for me. 

    Thats just one setting. You also need port numbers, SSL, user name and password. I copied this from Charters support site:
    You will need the following information to allow your Smartphone to connect to mobile.charter.net. Please use the mobile device settings for mobile devices. You will not be able to send messages if you use other settings. The mobile device settings can also be used on a laptop or netbook to send messages using a desktop Email client when not connected to a Charter internet connection.
    Username: [email protected]  Note: Make sure you enter @charter.net after your username or you will be unable to login
    Password: The password you use to login to your Email account
    SSL: This setting should be On for both SMTP and IMAP.
    Protocol: IMAP
    Incoming Email Server: mobile.charter.net
    Port: 993
    Outgoing Email Server: mobile.charter.net
    Port: 587
    If applicable: a login will be required when sending and receiving mail.

  • I-Phone Outgoing Email problem fix?

    I don't know if anyone is still have problems sending Verizon email from their Iphone,  which this may help,  but I just signed up a new internet account with Verizon also setting up email on my I-phone and ran into the same problems on outgoing mail as a lot of people seem to have done. After googling, changing port settings etc with no luck, I noticed on the outgoing  SMTP setup tab, password line, I phone automatically entered my full xxxxx.verizon.net address, not just my username. Changing this to just the username fixed the problem. It doesn't seem to matter what the outgoing port setting is but I set it back to 25.
    This may be redundant but I thought I would advise,
    Thanks

  • Outgoing Email problems

    I got the new 4S phone, set up email, and am able to receive email fine.  I can send email to others on the same domain name, but when I send it outside the domain, I get an error message "Cannot Send Mail - A copy has been placed in your Outbox.  The receipient "[email protected]" was rejected by the server."  I'm not on any wifi system, only through verizon.  Any ideas?

    The problem may be with relaying.  If your "from" address in an email is from a different domain than the domain that receives your email (e.g. using xxx.mac.com to send emails and you have one that is "from" [email protected]) then the server may reject your email; they do that to block spam that uses a server's address.
    If you check the settings for the outgoing Mail Server, primary server, be sure to enter the user name and password.  These may be labeled as "optional", but enter them still.

    Please help to sort out this issue

    Hey awad11111,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    To clarify, the message that arrives to the recipient contains unexpected characters in the body of the message? or before you forward the email it displays unexpected characters?
    Thanks.

  • TS3899 iPad mini outgoing email problem

    I have just purchased an ipad mini, I use hotmail as my server and up until a software upgrade from Apple (my ipad will never be linked to a PC) and introducing I cloud I have been able to send and receive emails perfectly ok, I now receive email but cannot send, every time a message appears simply saying 'error occurred whilst delivering this mail' I have deleted iCloud account and deleted hotmail and re-input but nothing has worked. I cannot see the outgoing server details as suggested in the Apple Forum, I can only presume this is for the iPad only, not the mini? Please help, it's driving me nuts! the fact I cannot even select ipad mini under product is is worrying too...

  • Outgoing emails problems & no email notification

    Hi
    I really hope someone can help me as my N900 was working perfectly before it was returned to Nokia for repair.
    When I send an email from my handset it goes straight to the outbox & says failed next to it. A few seconds later I receive an error message saying STMP authentication failed. Check user name & password or that you have access to Smtp.live.com.
    Also, to see if I've received an email I have to manually press send & receive.
    I would be really grateful for any help.

    Sometimes, I had this issue with Mail for exchange and i was not able to send emails from N900. So i went ahead and reinstalled the phone firmware and went through the email configuration set up again, now all seems to be working fine.
    Maybe it helps

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Problem adding new Outgoing Email Profile

    I went in to the HP Utility to add an Outgoing Email Profile  (OEP) with an email I didn't already have setup on the printer.
    It would not let me create the new OEP, with a different email than those I had already setup.  When I clicked on "save and test" it said "Incorrect Credentials".  So I tried to create another new OEP but with an email addr the same as an existing OEP.  I input the SMTP password and Pin and when I hit the "save and test" it returned "Incorrect Credentials".  Then I input the same SMTP pswd and PIN on an existing OEP, with that same existing email addr, and I got the same results.  So now my existing OEP didn't work.  I then did the same on an existing but different email addr and it worked; this was using the last one I had added about 6 months ago.  
    It seems like two different email addresses that I had previously added have a different SMTP pswd, and the third email addr has the SMTP pswd I was using.  However, when all of this started, the email addr I was initially trying to use to create the new OEP hadn't been used yet?  So why would it already be expecting a certain pswd.
    Is there a way to find what the pswd should be for an existing OEP?  How would I reset the pswd?  How would I create an OEP with an email addr I hadn't yet used (ie: no pswd)?

  • Problems with outgoing email on Y!Mail

    The first week I used my free Yahoo email on the E61i I was fine. It's strange that I'm able to receive email from Yahoo, but I'm unable to send email out. I've tried everything from:
    Outgoing:
    smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com (worked for awhile)
    smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    smtp.next.mail.yahoo.com
    I have 2 questions regarding this problem of mine...
    Could the problem be from T-Mobile or Yahoo or perhaps both?
    If I purchase Yahoo Mail Plus will I be able to send emails?
    I'm trying not to use a third party email since it's not push email capable...so please help me.
    thanks in advance,
    jennifer

    It worked for a while with the first server adress? is the ports correct?
    usually if the server your using is not "open" you have to use your operators server for outgoing email. witch will send the mail first via your operators server and then trought your email.
    i could be wrong here tho
