Receive but can't send email

I have set up my Iphone 5 email exactly the same as my iPhone 4. Emails are received but outgoing email is left in Outbox. It states the sender address was rejected by the server. How can this be when it works on the iPhone 4?

Hi there,
I found you on Mac discussion groups.
Can you please tell me what to do re, not receiving ALL my emails, and often not being able to send email, even from different wifi servers?
I have alot of draft mail, sent mail, big mailboxes, etc.
Thanks.
Alexis

TS3276 Receive but can not send email

I cannot send email. I used the connection doctor and it shows a green dot for my esp but send button is still dimmed. In the Accounts section Outgoing Mail Server it says "off line" but I still can receive emails.

Yesterday outgoing mail couldn't recognise my outgoing mail server so wouldn't send. I deleted the outgoing mail sever for the account (having first written down what it was (smtp.talktalk.net in this case), and made a new one with the same server, so basically just duplicated it. This allowed me to send mail.
This morning the send button was greyed out, and when I went to the outgoing server settings it said 'None'. Selecting the new version of the outgoing server I typed in last night, quitting and restarting Mail has my send button back.
I know these aren't quite the symptonms you have, but it may give you a clue since no-one else has more specific instructions.

Depending on what account your using you may need to add a password for you outgoing mail server. If that doesn't do the trick then take a look at the the link

Receive but can't send emails using Outlook Expres...

Is anyone else experiencing this again ?
OE leaves my mail in the Outbox and BT Mail will not accept them on a send/receive. Also still experiencing password rejection problems everytime I send/receive. If I cancel instead of trying again. It receives my mail but will not send it.
Any ideas please ?
Thanks..............
Spoiler (Highlight to read)

I suspect you will all ready have done this because you were previously sending emails but it might be worth doing it again in case there has been a glitch in the system.
Verify the non BT email address. See this link.
http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/10903/kw/reset%20BT%20Yahoo%20Password/c/346,412,416/...
I think you also need to ensure that you have ticked the box “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" - and you need to use "Log on using" and enter the BTinternet email address/password you've used to verify the Non BT email address.

Configuration problems with IMAP e-mail on iOS with a non-standard SSL port.

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.

The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995
Outgoing ports are...
SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages

Receive but can't send Centurylink email

Any ideas to help? I have two Centurylink email accounts. About a month ago, my iPhone stopped sending mail through my Centurylink smtp. Now, I can receive Centurylink mail but can't send mail or reply from either account on either my iPhone or iPad. I have talked to CL several times and they have walked me through the screens but to no avail. I am not experiencing difficulty with my Gmail, Hotmail or Mac mail on the mobile devices. Should be a solution without having to install a special piece of software.

The first message means you cannot log into the SMTP server. For whatever reason, it is showing this error regarding the username and password. It could have something to do with the fact that you have more than one CL account. We'll check that later.
The second one has to do with a different SMTP error, and that sounds like it is hitting the wrong port, even though you are saying you have corrected to their recommended port. Many ISP email providers will not let you send mail through their SMTP server when not on their network, such as connected by the computer or on your wi-fi at home, unless you can be authenticated. This has something to do normally with the SSL setting and how you are authenticated.
Also, when deleting and adding similar accounts back to the phone, it can also keep/carryover SMTP settings. If you go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>tap on the primary account, hoiw many SMTP servers are listed there? There might be a primary and there could also be Other SMTP servers. This may be where your problem lies. Check the settings in the Primary Server. Because you have two accounts, and they of course, have different username and passwords, they could be causing conflict as to which SMTP server is checked there. See if the correct SMTP server is serving the correct account. You can make adjustments in each account area.
We can work from there.

Email - receive but can't send

Hi: I can receive e-mail from my POP3 server but can't send. I beleive it is because of a peculiarity of my provider. I use Outlook to send/receive e-mail from this server and in its setup there is an option under the "Outgoing Server" setup tab that says "Log on to incoming server before sending e-mail". That doesn't appear to be an option with the iPhone. Here is a blurb from the service providers FAQ:
"By default, this server will reject all connections. To authorize yourself to send e-mail, you must first use your e-mail reader to check your account for new e-mail. After you have checked your e-mail, you will be authorized to send e-mail through the server for up to 90 minutes.
All of our customers have mailboxes which are accessible through POP3 or IMAP. POP3 and IMAP are e-mail retrieval protocols and have authentication built-in. Therefore, any customer who legitimately accesses a mailbox on our servers using POP3 or IMAP is automatically authorized to send outgoing e-mail through our relay service for up to 90 minutes. "
thanks,
russ
p.s. Here is webpage on setting it up: http://www.pair.com/support/knowledgebase/e-mail/setting_up_an_e-mailreader.html

I also encountered this problem and think I got it solved today. Try the following:
For your outgoing server, use cwmx.com, which is AT&T's only outgoing server for the Edge network. Don't use a user name or password.
Then perform what AT&T calls a soft reset. Hold down the power button on the top right side and the circular button on the bottom center at the same time until the Apple logo appears on your screen. Then wait a minute or so, see if you can get internet access through Safari, and if so, the you should be able to send emails from your account. It worked for me, and I hope it works for you.

IPhone 5 no longer receive emails, but can still send emails with yahoo email account. Any ideas to fix?

iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 stopped receiving mail yesterday. Have yahoo email account. Can still send emails. Have turned device off/on. Have done the dual off/on thing using top button and menu button. Issue seems to be only with main inbox, as sub folders are receiving mail. Other Apple device is not having issues like this, just on iPhone.

Your issue is with the Yahoo email account which is notoriously bad.
you can try deleting and reinstalling the email account.
If that doesn't fix it try the yahoo email app.

I can receive email but can't send email

Switched over from Sprint about a week ago. I restored my new iPhone 6 and had some iMessage issues which I cleared up by re-setting my settings (the option that doesn't delete anything). I'm not sure if the re-set has anything to with it but for past 3 days, I've been able to get email on my phone but not send it. I keep getting a window saying my email username or pw is incorrect. I've re-inputted in the pw and username and checked the imap and smtp values and everything is correct but I still can't send email, i.e, forward, reply, etc.
Thanks for your help.

Many thanks! Per your response, I deleted the email account, re-inputted everything and it's working fine. FYI, the email account is my own domain which I've had for about 10 years.
Again, thanks.
PS - Before you responded I went online and a number of recent forum posts I read said that this issue is a bug in iOS 8 and it comes and goes. If it is, hopefully Apple will fix it.
