Outgoing emails from one account go into an 'outbox' instead of being sent

Have multiple email accounts in Mail on iPad which were all working fine. One of the AOL accounts began putting every email I try to send into the outbox instead of sending them. No error message - just 'this email has been placed in your outbox.'  All settings/servers are identical to the accounts that are working properly.  Deleted the offending account and then added it back.  No change.  Once, and only once, the emails sitting in my outbox just randomly sent.  Some were a couple of weeks old.  My workaround now is to open the email in the outbox and change the 'from' field to any one of the other 6 accounts - then it sends.  This is not a good solution however because I set up these different accounts for different purposes.  The offending email account works fine on both my Mac and my iPhone - when I send an email from the same account on those devices, it sends.  Suggestions?

Thank you Chris CA - I double-checked - I do have correct username & password in outgoing mail server.
Again, no error message when I try to send - nothing about username or password or server....the only message I get is "placed in your outbox"

  • Email from one account logs into another user

    My daughter has her own iCloud account.  However, when she sends an e-mail from her computer it logs into my account and shows as being sent from my account

    Find the message in Sent folder. Verify account used to send. It's not uncommon that you have selected the Inbox for another account when composing a message. The message is sent from that account.
    If you want to default to a specific account, in Mail > Preferences > Composing select Send new messages from <select account from popup>

  • I am sending an email from one account on iphone 4s but the replies are coming into another account on my phone

    I have had an iphone 4s for about a year and have 4 email accounts that come in on it: verizon, gmail, my work, and icloud.  Periodically, I send an email from one account, it shows the message as sent from that account in my sent mail, but the recipient receives it from the gmail account and therefore replies to the gmail.  Has anyone had this happen?  It is almost as if my messages are bouncing into gmail when I send them, although on my phone it shows as having been sent from another account.  I have not had this happen on my computer where I have all of these emails coming in as well.  I thought perhaps it was me not being careful about which account I was sending from when using my phone, but the mail I sent this morning I was very careful to make sure was from verizon, the sent mail on my phone shows it was sent from verizon, and the reply came in on gmail.  Gmail isn't even the default email address- verizon is! My iphone is using version 6.1.3. Does anyone have any ideas? This is a major problem for me so I appreciate any ideas!  Thank you!!!

    I am not sure whether this is related, but I had a problem with Gmail where each time I sent and email via my iPhone it would bounce back in my Gmail account as unread. You migh want to check this Google article explaining why this happens and how to avoid it:

  • Email--I can only get emails from one account

    I Can only get emails from one account on my iPad and iPhone 5
    i used to be able to access both email accounts prior to getting a new battery for the iphone

    Hi LinneaH,
    If you are having issues with getting emails on your iPhone or iPad, then take a look at the article below to give you some troubleshooting options to get it working again. Make sure that the settings and passwords are correct for your email and if you still have issues, then you may want to remove the email account from your device and then add it back in.

  • TS3276 when I send an email from one account, it shows up as sent from another gmail account. Anybody ever run into this

    When I send an email from one of my accounts, it shows up as sent from another account. Does anyone know how to correct this?

    As Ernie said, you need to create an SMTP server for each gmail account with the correct username and password. Be sure the correct server for each account is listed in the SMTP box and check the box to use only that server for that account.
    Gmail's default behavior when sending from one account through another account's outgoing server is to change the address to the server which is used. Same goes if I send a message from my ATT/Yahoo account and use gmail's server to send through. It will change the ATT address to the gmail address.
    There is an option in gmail's settings under the Account's tab under Send Mail As. You can add different gmail or other accounts such as Yahoo to this and choose how the gmail server handles it. You can set it to send as the sending account and not change the address. I've used this many times for my ATT account for sending through gmail when ATT accounts were having problems.
    You can add the different accounts to each gmail account you have.

  • Apple Mail : Move emails from one account to another

    Good Day,
    I please need help with Apple Mail. A client of mine recently changed her email address from her webhost to online exchange. I setup her new email in Apple Mail and that is all working and nice.
    Her Apple mail now shows 2 accounts:
    - the old IMAP
    - the new Exchange
    I would like to consolidate all emails from her old IMAP account to her new Exchange account, so that they are all in one place. In Outlook you can just drag and drop emails and folders between the accounts, but my client says that that doesn't work in Apple Mail.
    How would I go about moving these emails from one email account within Apple Mail to another?
    Sorry for the trivial question, but I am a Windows girl and not as versed in Mac;)
    Thanks for the help!
    Maike

    Try creating a new mailbox in the On My Mac section and drag the e-mails there. Mail/Mailbox/New Mailbox.

  • Can't move emails from one account to another in native Mail app IOS 7.0.3

    I can select an email and click on move, and MAIL looks like working (the animation seems to move the email to a different account folder) but indeed is not moving the email! This was working with the previous release of IOS
    Mail works if I try to move email to a folder belonging to the same account.
    I need to move email from my university account to my gmail to store it! And I can't create an alias in gmail because of my university (stupid) security policies.
    Thank a lot for your help.

    Hi Kobe Zhang
    Option 1:
    Your MSN account might be deleted but the eprintcenter wont be deleted along with it.
    You should be still able to login to eprintcenter account using the old msn id and the same old password for eprintcenter account which you used regularly.
    If you have forgot the password, i dont know how can you recover it. 
    If you get a chance to login then you can remove the printer from the old account and then claim it in your new account created usign hotmail ID.
    If you are not worried about changing your printers email ID, here is option 2.
    One more option is to de register the printer and register it again to cloud to get a new email address which can be used to claim the printer in your new account and then customize your email ID there. But be aware that you might not be able to set the same customised email ID which you have used in your old account.
    Kind Regards,

  • Error when moving multiple emails from one account to another

    I have an IMAP account for one of my emails. I have recently changed web hosting and so changed this to a POP account. I don't want to lose all my emails, which is what happened to another one of my accounts when the web hosting was changed. So have opened a new account on mail which is the POP one. I want move all my emails from the IMAP to the POP. I selected all and clicked move but only half went over, now everytime I try to do the remainder I get an error message just literally saying 'There was an error when trying to move 431 emails across' Or something like that. Why is this happening and is there another way of doing it? It's justw eird that half of them moved fine and the rest stayed.

    Try Mail/Mailbox/Export Mailbox which will move the mailbox to your desktop. Then Mail/File/Import Mailbox which will put the e-mails in an Import Folder in On My Mac. That will save the e-mails for you.

  • Can't send or receive email from one account

    Just bought the iPod Touch last week. Set up Hotmail account with no problems. However my MacDialup.com account (used to be dial up, but is DSL now) won't work at all. They aren't set up to use SSL, so I turned that off after the iPod automatically tried it. I tried IMAP and POP, tried changing incoming server port number from defalt 143 to 110, triple checked spelling on every single entry including password. Tried calling my ISP tech support and talked to a tech who owns an iPhone and lives in the bay area, but he couldn't figure it out. I tried deleting the MacDialup account then syncing the Touch to my iTunes on my MacBook Pro (which has no problem sending or receiving email from this same account) and had the email settings imported from the MacBook Pro - still no luck. Tomorrow I'll try bringing both my MacBook Pro and iPod Touch into the Genious Bar. Maybe they can figure it out.

    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.

  • I have 2 email accts.  I set it up so that email from one account automatically transfer to the other account.  How do I undo it?

    I have two email accounts.  I was having problems with one account and set it up to automatically transfer emails from the problem account to the other.  The account with the problem has been fixed.  How do I undo the automatic transfer?

    I don't suppose it will be exactly the same on my ISP's webmail interface as Comcast's, but I've just checked the route I have to follow with my provider (Orange in France):
    Log on to your email account in a web browser > Select Mail's Preferences > Select Forward my email to another mailbox.
    If you don't have this, or a similar option, I'm afraid I'm stuck for other ideas .

  • How do I prevent Thunderbird from showing emails from one account as a duplicate a different account (identity?)?

    I really do not know the difference between the term "identity" and the term "account". My Thunderbird has three different email addresses that it collects messages into. I can receive or send from all three separately.
    The problem is that all emails from my business (comcast.net) account show up as a duplicate in my personal account (a gmail account). Oddly, those same messages do not show up in the third account (comcast.net).
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks for any help!

  • Emails from one account don't appear in the Inbox of Mail since upgrading to Mountain Lion

    I have a couple of email accounts - one is Gmail and one is a domain for my business. Previously Mail would show the Inbox and then a subfolder for each account under Inbox. Any messages received in the accounts would appear in both their own subfolder and also the Inbox. All my rules worked properly and life was good. Now, try as I might I cannot get my domain email account messages to show in the global/unified Inbox.
    Originally the domain email folder was totally separate to the Inbox. By changing the IMAP Prefix (removing 'Inbox') I was able to get the folder at least under Inbox.
    I purchased a new iMac and used Migration Assistant to move everything, therefore the problem persists. I had additional problems that my address book, rules and On My Mac folders didn't appear - but I solved that by finding the Containers folder and it is like a duplicate of Mail. I moved things from there to the Library/Mail and those particular issues resolved. But for the inbox issue, I have removed data from the Users/Library/Mail and from Library/Containers and started afresh - even deleted the Mail App and reinstalled from my original disc, but as soon as I set up the account it happens again.
    Recently I have also started receiving errors when sending to use the Connection Doctor. I don't know if all this is related to a bug in Mountain Lion, the way I have things set up, or my domain/ISP.
    Any suggestions on what to try, what it may be or ways around it would be great. I do have a Smart Mailbox for a Total Inbox, but of course the Rules don't work automatically on it. I'm getting sick of running Rules manually. Help please!!

    I called the support service and she told me to delete my email address and re-enter it. I have no problem since then on receiving and sending emails.
