OVI mail thunderbird sending problems - Unusual Ac...

Hi,
I have had issues sending email from Thunderbird since the migration of emails. I currently have my outgoing server set at smtp.mail.ovi.com
Last week I tried changing some settings on Thunderbird as it would not send any emails. I then received this responce:
The current command did not succeed. The mail server for account *******@ovi.com responded: [LIMIT] APPEND failed - Unusual Activity Detected. To protect you, your account has been suspended from sending, saving, and receiving for up to 48 hours.
This morning I changed the password on my account through ovi.com and then changed it back. I managed to send one email through thunderbird and then I got the above message again when it tried to move the message into the sent folder.
Now I can receive mail but not send. When thunderbird connects to send my email it does not verify my password. All I get is Login to server smtp.mail.ovi.com failed.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Hi!
I also have the same problem.
Please some one help us
best regards

Capturing line items in the routine-mail order sending problem

Hi
I am sending Sales Order Output to the Email.
I have configured the output type Using Option 'External Send' Option.
But the Problem is Whenever there are blocks for Sales Order Email Should not be send.
1.    When there is a block in Sales Order Header, then no email should be sent.
2.    Similary when there is a block Sales Order Item , then no email should be sent.
There is some standard routine attached to Outputtype Procedures .
First Condition we can met using routine, in the routine if the block is there , then no output will
be triggered.
But in the same routine we couldn't able to capture item level data to validate the second condition.
If anybody is having the idea to validate second condition, Please help me.
Thanks&Regards

SMTP Account Display E-Mail Address Sending Problem

I'm having a problem sending e-mail with my SMTP account setup. In Outlook Express I could set up an account with my domain name e-mail displayed as the reply-to address (which in turn is forwarded to my ISP account), but use my ISP account user name to both send and receive. In Mail, I can only send if the displayed/reply-to e-mail address matches my ISP user login name. Is this a limitation of Mail, or is there a way around this problem? And it's a big problem!

Never mind. Seems to work now.

Mail proxy send problem

We have a BM 3.8 SP5 server that is doing mail proxy for a GroupWise 7 SP3 server. Yesterday, after a BM server reboot, we can only send to a limited number of domains. Most mail sent out comes back as
Undelivered mail : Unknown user: ..............
I tried a different DNS server address on the BM server, but that didn't seem to make any difference.
Also, I should mention that the BM server seems to hang for several minutes when trying to load brdsrv.nlm on restarts.
I am not the one that originally set this up and I am not sure why we are using mail proxy as we have several free public IPs.
Thanks,
Rob

Don't use Mail Proxy then!
For inbound, set up static NAT and filter exceptions. Turn off Mail
Proxy. For outbound, be sure GWIA is not using a relay agent, so it
will use nat/filter exceptions.

Ovi Mail Problem

Having problems signing into Ovi Mail. Yahoo told me to go to the Nokia site and fill in the "contact us" form. I can't find it - been going around in circles. Does anyone have an email address I can use to report my problem? Thanks!

I found an email address I used several years ago to contact Nokia regarding a problem with Ovi Mail. In that instance I was contacted back and the problem was resolved.
However, this time I received the following reply...
"Our support is not available via direct emails, please send your question with the Ask Nokia form that you can find on the local Nokia webpages at the following link http://www.europe.nokia.com
[This is an automatically generated acknowledgement. Please do not reply to this e-mail.]"
Guess what?
There's no Ask Nokia form to be found and after going around in circles AGAIN, I ended up at the usual support pages with absolutely no way to contact Nokia to let them know that my mail has been down for 2 weeks!
PLEASE CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO CONTACT SUPPORT FOR OVI MAIL!!
Nokia websites have updated so the links you used did not work. To contact Nokia UK, you can chat with our representatives here: http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/contact/

Delayed sending of Ovi Mail

I'm having a problem where some email I send from my Ovi Mail account take days to arrive. (Or in one case two weeks).
Has anyone else experienced this, and if so were you able to get the problem solved?
I've contacted Nokia, however it can be difficult to persuade them that the problem is genuine!

Thanks for the reply. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
Unfortunately, the reply I received from the Nokia contact centre was irrelevant and contained instructions for a completely different handset!
Its so frustrating dealing with them. Why is it so hard for them to answer the question?
perhaps they receive so many emails every day that makes it hard to answer all the questions patiently and without rushing?

Mail / thunderbird wont send!

Hiya
I have two email addresses with IX Webhosting and I can not get any mail to send from either Apple Mail or Thunderbird.
The problems seem to be around connecting to the STMP server, I either get a message that the server is (offline) or that it can not connect as the username / password is incorrect. I don't really understand why though as I have checked the settings and passwords repeatedly and they are correct!
The connection doctor says the same thing. It is very frustrating as the settings seem to randomly change from 'No Password' to 'Password' etc.
I have tried deleting the outgoing server and re-adding the details; removing the account and re-creating it and changing the settings to the recommended from the hosting provider. They seem to recommend using Port 25.
Does O2 broadband restrict access through their routers or something?!
Hope someone can help,
ttfn
M
PS I found this thread but that does not solve the problem.
Message was edited by: Melshimber2

Went and did some research, found the error message for when I start mail:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "[email protected]" or try again.
The server error encountered was: Mail was unable to verify the identity of this server, which has a certificate issued to "mail.leftcoastwaterpolo.com". The error was:
An SSL error occurred while trying to read data from the server "mail.leftcoastwaterpolo.com". Verify that this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct.
You might be connecting to a computer that is pretending to be "mail.leftcoastwaterpolo.com", and putting your confidential information at risk.
I may also add it does not work on my phone, but works fine on thunderbird.... I've tried re entering the exact settings as thunderbird but that got me to where I am now

Huge problem using apple mail while sending email to a group...

Hey - I am quite confused... apple mail has huge problems using groups with about 150 addresses when writing and sending an email... the writing of emails is nearly impossible. Once the group name is inserted in the addressline (address book in iCloud!), apple mail uses nearly 100% CPU and further writing is nearly impossible. When sending such an email, all addresses are suddenly visible - though the box is NOT checked and the addresses should be hidden... what can I do? I use this feature (sending mails to groups) on a daily basis and cannot accept visible addresses...
Greetings and sorry for inconvenient english...
Christof

How about next time you send to the group, cc yourself, or include yourself in the group. Then receive the email on the iphone, you can "reply all" in order to send to the group. If you use an imap account, you can make a new folder, call it something like "groups", and save different group emails there for the next time you need to "reply all".

Is it possible to have Thunderbird send an e-mail automatically when a message with a specific subject is received?

Is it possible to have Thunderbird send an e-mail automatically when a message with a specific subject is received?
I basically want to create a rule that will send an automatically crafted form e-mail to the sender when I receive an e-mail with the subject line "New Swimmer". Is this possible?

Thank you Todd, I was able to get it to work but I do have a few more questions...
1) When I tested this, at the top of the message, before any of the text I created, this showed up: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------040406040801080102080500 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Is there anyway that I can get that to go away? I obviously would prefer a nice, cleanly formatted e-mail to be sent just like I would send if I were creating it on the spot.

Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.

Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.
I have this problem that started a while ago and seems to be getting worse.
Here are the different scenarios.
-If I try to share a photo to email within iPhoto, it will insert the image file name in the mail message, but no image icon or opened image. In iPhoto Preferences under General I have chosen to use Email Photos using Mail.
-If I choose to use iPhoto to send the photo, it will compose the message and the photo is viewable. If I send the message i can view the photo within the email I sent to myself. Nothing happens when I double click on the photo in the Mail message. Nothing happens when i control click on the photo in the mail message. Nothing happens when I try to drag the photo to the desktop from the mail message. When I try to save attachments from the email and choose a place to save it, the save button is grayed out and it cannot be saved. When I check the mail message it says there is an attachemnt but there is no file size listed.
-If I use the stationary within Mail app I cannot drag a photo into the placeholder, I get a circle with a line through it symbol when I try. It happens if I try to drag a photo from the desktop or from the media browser within Mail app.
-If I drag the photo to the desktop from iPhoto, I can double click it on the desktop and it will open in Preview.
-If I then control click on the same photo on the desktop and scroll to share/email, the generic photo icon will be inserted in the mail message. If i double click the photo icon in the mail message I get a message it can't be opened because it is empty.
-If I drag that same image to the mail message body the same thing happens.
-If I send that email to someone they cannot open the image file.
What I can do:
- I can drag that same image file on the desktop to my dropbox folder and it will upload. From there I can go on my iPad and download the photo and send it through email just fine.
-I can open the same image file on my desktop in Preview, I can copy and paste it into a mail message and the image will be viewable in the mail message by me and by the recipient.
-I can drag that same image on the desktop to my safari browser window and it will be viewable in the page. i can then copy and paste that image into a mail message and it is viewable in the message. I can then send that email message to myself and i can control click on the image and get all my options. It also shows as an attachment with the size of the image file in the mail message.
I can send that message to someone and they can see the photo and open it fine.
-If I send that same email to me I can see the photo within the mail. If I then drag that photo to the desktop I cannot use it again to put in an email as the same problem happens again.
I have tried all scenarios in my user account, another users account and in a guest account. The same happens in all. I am guessing because of this it is not a corrupt preference file, unless all of the preference files are corrupt. The guest user account I added a new email account so it was brand new and still had the problem.
I am stumped, all and any help is appreciated.

Another problem that may be related….
I have Snapz Pro. I used to be able to save the snaps to my desktop or a folder. Now when I take a screenshot and try to save the file to my desktop or a folder on my desktop I get this message "Files cannot be created in the selected location. You do not have permission to write to the selected location. Please choose a different location." I have found that i can only save the file to the clipboard. I have repaired permissions many times and still I have this problem.

A new clue to the Apple Mail sending problems?

In my continuing efforts to fix the SMTP/POP mail failures with Apple mail, I've noticed a glitch that some of you more advanced readers might be able to decipher.
After lots of fruitless messing around with port numbers, preferences, and keychain fix attempts, what did work for me (temporarily) was a cleaning out of all the servers listed on the mail account options window, and then putting the original names and other info back in. Somehow, the mail app is spontaneously generating multiple combinations of server names, usually the original server name, plus a user name, the server name again, or some other redundant combination.
As I use mail to manage two separate POP accounts, sometimes it also creates hybrid server names by combining the server/user name pieces across both accounts.
This appears to happen entirely on its own; I had mail working for about 90 minutes, then it fell into this problem again. I'll probably have to keep cleaning it out, like a boat owner scraping barnacles off the hull, until Apple offers some kind of a patch.
Has anyone else who has the nagging "can't send SMTP mail" problem seen this phenomenon in their server/account preferences specs? If so, any ideas on how to stop this madness?

You haven’t said what the problem was in your case, i.e. what error message did you get when sending, if any, whether the mail account and the associated outgoing (SMTP) server were provided by your ISP or by someone else, etc.
Mail doesn’t spontaneoulsy generate outgoing server entries, but it keeps information about outgoing (SMTP) servers in a separate list independently of the mail accounts themselves. The account settings just associate one of the available outgoing servers with each account. Deleting an account doesn’t remove from the list the outgoing server that was associated with it. Orphaned or dangling outgoing server entries (i.e. not associated with any account) sometimes cause weird sending problems, and could very well have been the problem in your case as well.
As you appear to have already found out, you may go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), choose Edit Server List from the popup menu, and delete any servers that shouldn’t be there — the Edit Server List panel shows the account each outgoing server is associated with.
