Problem sending an email from iphone

When my iphone is connected to my wifi I can send and receive emails no problem, however if I connect via GPRS I can receive email but when I try and send it I get an error message telling me it cannot find the outgoing server, can anyone help with this?

This is because the SMTP server you have configured does not permit connections from off the ISP's network. When you are connecting via EDGE this is off-network from the perspective of the ISP.
Here are some hints from Apple on this problem:

You didn't say who your ISP is, but here are some common settings ISPs in various countries:

As a last resort in the US you can set the outgoing SMTP server to cwmx.com:25 with no user ID or password. This will work on EDGE only, not on WiFi.

Hello
I have a new iPhone, MacBook and MobileMe subscription. The address from MobileMe when I send email from my Mac is [email protected] but when I send email from my iPhone it is [email protected] I have in theory followed all the instructions yet cannot get it to do otherwise. Any suggestions appreciated

I have problem send any email from iPad2

I have a very weird situation.
I had this iPad2 for a few months and was able to receive and send email using 3 email accounts, from gmail, yahoo and hotmail without any problem.
Howeverm after I came back from a trip, I could only receive email, but cannot send any email from any of these accounts at all!
I am using WIFI. I have deleted all email accounts, turned off the ipad2, and started over a couple of times.
I tried to recreate these account again one by one. After added one account, I tested it only to see no email can be sent!
THere is no error message, no any information. All I know is the email I sent from my iPad disappeared!
Any one here can help?
Thanks!

Disabling email scanning didn't fix it. I can open the Mozilla email client and it immediately tries to connect to the inbound AT&T mail server but then just sits there with no response. If I try to send a message same thing, tries to connect to outbound AT&T server but nothing. One of the options in the support doc said to remove the saved passwords and when the client restarts it will ask you to save your password again. The client never makes a connection to the server so it never has a chance to authenticate. Its almost like AT&T disabled their POP server.

Cant send an email from iPhone 5

Ever since I got my iPhone 5,I have been unable to send an email.
I just get a message to say
"The connection to the outgoing server smtp.hotmail.co.uk failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Server can be configered in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars."
I have tried everything to connect the phone to my hotmail.co.uk account, but I am having no luck.
The settings are exactly the same as what was on my iPhone 4, so I don't understand what the problem is.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Gemma

Make sure that your router is setup to not block any ports.
as well check with your ISP to ensure those servers are not blocked.
you shouln't have any issues with receiving mail. the outgoing would be the only issue you should be having.
make sure you add an alternate SMTP server (using your ISP's server) to send email when on wifi

Why won't iCloud allow me to send outgoing email from iPhone?

I try to send emails from my newly created iCloud account, but I get an error message saying that the server isn't working.

Also same here. If it's any consolation the iCloud and mail forums are awash with this problem. I am most disappointed that the service status is showing all ok since 9.37am UTC yesterday when it is obvious that the mail poblems they posted as resolved are are not in fact resolved. I am sorry I cannot offer any solutions, as many of those suggested by others (which I have tried) either only work temporarily, slow your mail down interminably or fail to work at all. It should work the way Apple say it should and not require work-arounds. What I find most disappointing is the lack of an ackowledgement somewhere that there is a problem and it is being addressed. Perhaps then tens of thousands of people (or more) wouldn't be wasting hours and hours trying to get it to work to no avail.
APPLE, JUST ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM AND I CAN THEN WAIT FOR IT TO BE RESOLVED, THAT'S ALL I AM ASKING.

Sending aol email from iphone

I am also having problems. Whenever I try to send an email via my aol account (which receives incoming email no problem) I get the same error message "Connection to the outgoing server "smtp.aol.com" failed". But I cannot find any setting on my iphone to try and correct this. Very fed up....help please.

I have solved this (thanks to apple telehpone support line). I am UK based used on O2 account.
You need to enter your aol account details manually, not through aol preset option.
So delete existing aol account (go in via settings then mail then follow prompts).
Then create new account - settings - mail - accounts - add account - other -. Ensure IMAP is selected. Enter your name, email address. Under incoming server enter host name "imap.aol.com", username, enter your aol account user name and password. Under outgoing mail server: host name "smtp.o2.co.uk", username and password shoudl be optional. Then presss save. It will ask you if you want to go ahead without ssl settings - select yes. Keep waiting. It worked and I have sent several emails without problems. Hope this solves problems for others.

Problem Sending Authenticated email from C2 App

Hi All,
I am trying to send an auto response with gathered user details back to the user from my app.
I have completed the sending emaill tutorial but this is for email that does not need authenticated. I am thinking that I just need to pass my e-mail address and password to btinternet ( my mail server) but I am not sure where to pass this in my code.

Can's send yahoo email from iphone

While everything was working until a few days ago, all of the sudden, any emails I send from the iphone, using my yahoo account, are not sent. I tried sending it myself and it doesn't work. They don't even appear under the "sent" folder so it's not like they're pending or anything like that. Does anyone have any solution?

You might try to go in and reset your password for you Yahoo account in your iPhone. If that doesn't fix it, the quickest way to make sure that all of the settings are set correct is to delete your Yahoo account from your iPhone. recreate your account on your iPhone and that should fix any problem your having.

Cant send/recieve email from iPhone on wifi - 3G works fine

I cant send or recieve email on my iPhone / iPad when on WIFI - when I turn off WIFI, it all works fine on 3G. I tried to delete my exchange-account, and then both gmail accounts works fine on wifi. Any thoughts?
...or rather; I think maybe it sends/recieves, but it takes a very long time.

An attached file with a text message is an MMS. SMS is text only.
If you have MMS enabled on your iPhone and you are able to send SMS, contact your carrier regarding a problem with sending MMS.

When I send email from iphone, mail on my mac crashes every time.

The latest in a string of issues I've had with Mountain Lion, and even more with Lion. This is the latest and most frustrating.
Eveytime I send an email from iphone or ipad, mail on my macbook pro crashes. This happens everytime!
Also, Safari is unusable as keeps crashing and hardly ever loads properly so moved to Chrome which works perfectly.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.
