Possible to shut off iCloud SMTP Server on iPhone?

Is it possible to use my own smtp server on my icloud account on my iphone.  Really starting to annoy me that I can't figure out how to disable the primary server and use my own.  Thanks!

Go to Settings > Mail, Calendars and Contacts > iCloud > Account > Mail > SMTP. There you can add additional SMTP servers and disable the iCloud server. I don't know how well that will work, though, since I haven't actually tried it.

  • Off premise smtp server

    We were recently migrated to EOP from FOPE. We have a third party data center that hosts our corporate website. There is an smtp service there that sends out confirmation emails and such for various things on the website. Recently some recipient email systems
    were generating NDRs for spf fail with the ip addr of the hosting service. I have added that addr to our spf record, but I'm wondering if this has something to do with our EOP migration. 
    I will get a closer look at this smtp service later today, but I'm wondering if it is maybe configured for messaging.microsoft.com as a smart host. I think FOPE was cancelled yesterday or the day before for us. IF I want to have this off premise smtp server
    send to EOP as a smart host, what part of the Exchange online control panel do I configure that address? Is it a partner, inbound connection? I don't want to point the smtp to ourdomainname.mail.protection.outl
    ook.com. and then have them all refused as that ip is not configured in our EOP panel yet.
    Regards

  • How do I permanently shut off icloud from my macbook pro. Safari will not let me shut down

    I have a macbook pro 2008 with operating system Maverick.  Today I was asked to join i cloud.  I do not want to join i cloud.  I just want to keep my computer as it is with the new operating system.  It seems I now joined I cloud and cannot shut down Safari unless i sign up for all of the uses of icloud.  Please advise me how to get out of all of this and just go back to my previous set up.  What can I do to get rid of ICloud and shut down my computer (Safari)?

    You can shut off iCloud in System Preferences.
    If Safari seems hung, click the Apple icon, then Force Quit. If it says Not Responding next to Safari force quit it.

  • Mail loosing iCloud SMTP server name

    Recently I have found that when I go to create a new email I cannot send it as the Mail application does not have the SMTP server assigned to my iCloud account.  Then when I try to choose one from my existing list, iCloud is greyed out and showing as offline.
    I have to then go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts then highlight my iCloud account and pick the iCloud SMTP server, then Save this amendment.  I can then create a new email and its configured to work OK.
    Anyone else have this issue or offer a suggestion?
    Running 10.8.3. Thx.

    Anyone else having this issue?  It's still going on for me.  It only happend to me since the update to 10.8.3.

  • Use other than iCloud SMTP Server?

    Hi fellows,
    iCloud is out and it is already starting to aggrevate me. I don' t want others to see my @me.com email adress. Therefore I want to change the SMTP server in my icloud account to an other email provider (gmail). But the iCloud SMTP server does not allow itself to be deactivated. It stays the primary SMTP and the gmail SMTP (which I want to make primary) stays secondary!
    I can change the SMTP in the email itself each time I write a new one, but this is very annoying!
    Can someone help?
    Btw. are you mails being pushed?! Mine do not push at all!
    Thanks in advance!
    Best Regards,
    Phillip

    Very weird, it worked with MobileMe in the iOS 5 betas.
    But I'm seeing what you're seeing.  Bummer.  I gave up on Apple and have moved my email to Google Apps using their sync.
    They ook the ability for me to add my smtp to the web interface with iCloud and now apparently in the phone as well.
    My advice, abandon the use of apple services.

  • Hpeprint and iCloud SMTP server

    Why can I not send mails with the icloud SMTP server to my printer using an hpeprint address? The mails are not printed an I get an error message. From all other email SMTP servers I use, it's working perfectly.
    The message I receive from icloud looks like this:
    This report relates to a message you sent with the following header fields:
    Message-id: <[email protected]>
    Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:53:49 +0100

    Your message cannot be delivered to the following recipients:

    (hpeprint.com ESMTP Postfix)
    Diagnostic-code: smtp;550 5.7.1 Command rejected
    This looks like a common problem with icloud as the promlem is also reported on the support forum of hpeprint. Nobody had a solution til now.
    thanks for any useful help

    I can confirm, that it happens on my iPhone as well - using any email provider it works except when using my iCloud account. Strangely, it used to work in the past and I'm just ran into this challenge recently.

  • Is it possible to shut off 3g on the iphone 4s?

    i just got the iphone 4s and i am loving it. but is there a possibility to shut off 3g and use edge instead? i think with 3g the battery dies so quick. before i had iphone 3g and there i was able to change it under general settings, network and then change it to edge. but i saw it's not there anymore and i was wondering if it is somewhere different now or not possible anymore.

    3G option was only avaiable in the iPhone 4 and 3GS AT&T becuase of their network. Their network has improved to a 4G which dropped the other (lower then 3G) EV network which was actvated when shutting off 3G (making it 2G). This option for these reasons if not avaiable for the iPhone 4S or for any carrier. BUT you can shut off cellular data which shuts off 3G completly if you do not need it for picture, video messaging or anything that requires internet you can shut it off and still recieve regualr messages and calls. As well as using apps and listening to music. Siri will be shut off too unfortantly.

  • Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4s and still use it with a wifi connection ?

    Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4 and then use the phone as normal

    I assume that you're asking if you can shut off cellular data (as no individual can shut off the Internet! )? Yes, you can turn off cellular data and use the phone features (except for MMS which requires cellular data) and access the Interenet via WiFi.
    Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data>Off

  • HT4864 can I use the icloud smtp server as the outgoing server for all my other imap accounts?

    I have several imap accounts. I want to send all my messages using the icloud server. I put the icloud server as the smtp server for each account but mail is not able to send the messages. The configuration is correct for the smtp iclous server, I checked.
    Is there anything I'm missing?
    Fausto

    The only thing you're missing is that you can't do that.  You have to use the correct smtp server for the mail accounts.  Email providers generally don't like sending some other company's mail.    If you want to send from the icloud servers, use your icloud account when composing.

  • ICloud smtp server authentication.

    The IMAP server authentication works fine in Outlook 2010.
    Will not accept the same password for the SMTP server.
    Can anyone help?

    I have the same problem.
    Iam using Outlook 2007 and the icloud control panel. Everything works great also the calender and contact sync runs great, but I can't send any Mails. I heard that there might be a problem with the password. So your password must have at least one capital letter and number. My Passwort has both and also an aditional letter.
    Maybe some has an answer for our problem?

  • ICloud SMTP server not working on Windows Live

    I can use iCloud to read and send messages on my iPhones and using the web interface in Safari but it doesn't seem to work with Windows Live Mail. 
    I'm using the following settings:
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    Port: 993
    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    Password: Your iCloud password
      SMTP (outgoing mail server) information: 
    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    Port: 587
    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    Password: Your iCloud password
    I can read messages in Windows Live but I can't send.  I get an error and if I click "Send/Receive", I get a window that pops up with my account username and password.  When I retype that it just keeps popping up until I hit cancel.  It's like the server is not responding at all. 
    Please help.

    Click on “Settings”
    Choose “Accounts & Sync”
    Select “Add Acount”
    You’ll be presented with a list of Email accounts. Choose “Email”
    Type in your email “[email protected]” and enter your iCloud password
    I suggest changing your iCloud password to be the same as your iCloud email password. It just makes things easier
    Under incoming settings enter the following
    “imap.mail.me.com”
    Port should be “993″
    Security type “SSL/TLS”
    Outgoing settings under SMTP server type in “smtp.me.com”
    Under Port type in “587″
    Security type, select “No”
    “Require Sign-in”
    Enter your iCloud username and password.

  • ICloud SMTP server timeout

    Hi all
    Using iCloud through Mail on OSX 10.7.4, I cannot send any emails
    I receive them just fine, but it will always timeout when trying to send emails
    The smtp server I seem to be on is p02-smtp.mail.me.com. I tried to ping it and it has 100% packet loss, although this might just mean they reject ICMP requests.
    Sending from my iPhone or iCloud on the web works just fine
    Any ideas?

    Seriously no one have a clue or a comment on this?
    I tried adding a different smtp server (smtp.mail.me.com), using port 587 w/ SSL and all to no avail
    Still timing out
    Is there any way to contact Apple Support directly via email or something somewhere?
    Thanks
