Outgoing gmail was rejected by server

I've got a gmail account verified by google. However when I attempt to send an email using gmail I get an error message that reads "was rejected by server".  This is NOT being rejected by the recipient's server, rather by Google Gmail 's server.  I've deleted and reinstalled the app, without success.  I'm using a new iPad Air tablet.

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then try entering your email account and password in the optional boxes and see if it then works
this was advice given to me by another user - not my idea - but it worked for me

    On the email account's settings (Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and tapping on the account on the right), go into it's outgoing SMTP settings and try putting in your email name and password (they might currently show as 'optional')

  • I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address"  was rejected by server by sever

    I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address"  was rejected by server by sever

    I set up my email the way the phone and iPad do. Very simple. It works most the time, but I am usually on wifi also. I ran into problem saying email was rejected by server, and it put email in my outbox. I looked in here to see if anyone had a good solution, then realized after reading the post I never actually checked my servers. My actual servers were different than the defaults that were set up. Example : the default server was mail.roadrunner.com, but the actual should be pop-server.roadrunner.com, and same for the smpt-server.roadrunner.com. Based on the ISP, must have the correct servers. But I was always able to send while on wifi. That part I did not understand. But since I fixed the servers, I have not seen any problem sending on either the iPad or iPhone. If you have not found fix, hope this may help if still having problem

  • 'Sender was rejected by server', SMTP greyed out?

    Today when trying to send an email I received the message 'Sender was rejected by server'. I tried deleting my account and re-adding it, which didn't work, and I tried going to the SMTP server to type in my username and password but the area was greyed out so I was unable to type anything! Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated - this is swiftly becoming frustrating since my iPad had been working perfectly until now!
    Thanks!

    Yes, I do indeed use Yahoo Mail.
    I don't know how relevant this may be but I created an iCloud email not long after posting this query - I am now able to send emails once again! Does adding an iCloud account have anything to do with it or has Yahoo mail been fixed?
    Thanks again! :)

    This means that you did not enter a valid user ID and/or password for the Outgoing (SMTP) mail server when setting up the account. You must enter information for both the incoming and outgoing mail servers; they are separate settings.

    I have posted how to fix the AOL sending problem (another user in the UK discovered the same thing).  It involves disabling the primary AOL SMTP server and creating a new one with a your AOL user ID without the final "@AOL.COM".

  • HT4623 "Message was rejected by server" WTH does THAT mean? Thanks!

    What does, "Message rejected by server", mean? Thanks!

    It means you are not properly connected to your email SMTP server. There could be something wrong in the settings of your email account. Try toning down your subject and the CAPS are not necessary. We are users just like you and remember you catch more flies with sugar than with vinegar.

  • Recipient e-mail address was rejected by server - how do i sort?

    Second e-mail account on my i-pad can't send e-mails due to addresses being rejected by the server

    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • HT201320 I cannot send e-mail, the message comes back. "Copy placed in Outbox, address was rejected by server" I think it may be real simple, can you help?

    Can you help with my ipad problem?

    Most, if not all ISPs and email account providers have similar limits to the following for personal/non-business email accounts as part of an overall effort to eliminate or reduce bulk spam emanating from the ISP's or email account provider's domain.
    Any ISP or email account provider that doesn't impose similar limits is helping to contribute to the amount of spam that gets circulated.
    .Mac has several safeguards in place to ensure that only .Mac members send messages with the Mac.com outgoing mail server.
    Among them are reasonable limitations on:
    The number of messages that can be sent each day (200 messages)
    The number of recipients that can be sent to each day (400 recipients)
    The number of recipients a message can be addressed to at one time (100 recipients)
    There is also a 10 MB maximum size for messages sent or received using the .Mac mail system.

  • HT1349 I cannot send email from IPhone 4. message server was rejected by server

    This has happened before and all of a sudden the phone allows messages to be sent.  Seems to be no rhyme or reason. I have re-entered my password and shut off phone.  my provider is comcast.
    thanks

    As it happened before and it seems to be solved by itself, there are chances that the problem comes from your provider.

    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.
