Same eMail address using different servers?

I,m new with the iPhone and am a little confused with eMail. When I initially setup the iPhone it synced perfectly and setup my mail fine for wifi. However when on edge I couldn't send. So I followed the Apple mail tutorial and fixed it to work on edge but now it won't send on wifi. Is there a way to set up 2 outgoing severs so it can just pick the one that works depending on whether your on edge or wifi? Also, if I travel out of edge am I going to run into the same problem again?
Thanks,
MarkII

Who is your email account provider?
You can send when connected to your Wi-Fi network at home or when connected to any Wi-Fi network but only not when connected with EDGE?
If you can send when connected to your Wi-Fi network, this indicates your are using an email account provided by your internet service provider and if so, this is why you can send with the account using your ISP's SMTP server since you are connected to the internet via your ISP when using your Wi-Fi network at home.
Do you know if your email account provider be it your ISP or other has an authenticated SMTP server?
If so, this should allow for sending with this account regardless which Wi-Fi network and internet service provider you are connected to and when connected via EDGE.
My primary account is my .Mac account which has an authenticated SMTP server. I connect to various Wi-Fi networks on a regular basis - my Wi-Fi network at home, the Wi-Fi network at my office which is with a different internet service provider and a number of free Wi-Fi networks that I access at various restaurants and a coffee shop that I frequent often and when using EDGE without any problems.
Most ISPs block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network unless the SMTP server that is outside of their network is authenticated. These restrictions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain. When using an authenticated SMTP server on any network, it is easier to track down the user that is violating the provider's terms of use and most people don't use an authenticated SMTP server for any underhanded use.

  • EWS Managed API: Email sender name incorrect if loading properties of multiple emails and several emails have same email address (but different names)

    Hi,
    I have an issue using the Exchange Web Services Managed API. I'm essentially implementing an 'inbox', and am essentially using two calls:
    folder.FindItems(filter, view) with the view set up with the 'idonly' property.
    The returns a 'FindItemResults<>' object containing a set of items.
    And then calling service.LoadPropertiesForItems(items, props), where the props contains all 'first class properties', which includes the sender details.
    Now, the inbox contains several emails from the same email address but with different displaynames.
    E.g. There may be one email from "Bob <[email protected]>" and another email from "Alice <[email protected]>" and another email from "Charlie <[email protected]>" etc.
    The issue is that in the information that EWS returns from the call to LoadPropertiesForItems, every email ends up with the same sender name (from the first one in the list)!
    i.e. When I enumerate through the returned items, the item.Sender.Name will always be"Bob" for every email where Sender.Address is [email protected] 
    I have debugged this with a http sniffer just to ensure that it really is the EWS coming back with this information rather than anything in the managed layer.
    Is this a known issue? How can I work around this (without querying every single email for the sender name individually, as that would be too slow)?
    Thanks

    Hi Venkat,
    Thanks for the reply.
    The scenario is that the client receives emails from a (3rd-party) automated system. The email address from this automated system is always "noreply@<blah.com>", while the display name is used to differentiate the actual sender.
    I suspect that this kind of system will likely become more widely used, and so for us will increase in priority (obviously its a priority for our client already)!
    Just for the record, if this is a known issue do you have a bug number or equivalent for it? (I tried to search but couldn't locate it).

  • Is it possible to give multiple users the same email account using different individual user ids/passwords (iMS 5.1)?

    Hence, a manager could let one or more assistants access the manager's email. Also one could set up a group email account and multiple users with different id/passwords could process/manage the account.

    Yes, look in the admin guide for the shared folders section. This in essence allows you to delegate permissions of individual mail folders to other users.
    The functionality is being enhanced for iMS 5.2 due out shortly according to iPlanet.

    thanks, back me old bookmarks only, thanks.

    Hi eddinchina,
    You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
    As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
    You may use the same email address with both accounts.

  • Can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)

    can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)?
    I've set up my daughters ipod touch last year all fine. She's had a mini this yr but when setting up facetime and entering her email address, which is used on the touch, I get an error message saying the address is already being used.
    I thought you can use the same email address on multiple devices.

    I have four different email addresses setup on my Mac, iPod Touch and my two iPads that I can select from and use as the email address with no problems at all.
    Turn off FaceTime, and sign out of the Apple ID in the FaceTime settings, restart the iPad and try again. Turn FaceTime on again, sign in with the Apple ID and then try the email address again.

  • Can I use the same email address on two different iPads?

    I use AOL for my work account, I can open an email on my iPad, my iPod Touch, my iMac, another iMac in the office and there are no issues at all. However, my AOL account is IMAP. I read email on the iPad, turn around and read and print from the iMac and someone else is accessing the email at the same time.
    We access the same emails all the time as we have one generic email address that we both use. We like to multitask with AOL.

  • HT204053 I have the same email address as my husband & use mine as my apple id. He has just got an iPhone 5. Does he need a different address as it says already in use?

    I have the same ema address as my husband &amp; he's just bought an iPhone 5 can we not
    Have the same email address for our apple is or will he need to create a new one?

    If you will be having separate iTunes accounts then yes, he will need a new email address in order to create his account - an email address can only be linked to one iTunes account

  • HT1918 How does one organise the apple ID so that one uses the same email address to have an account on both the UL and Belgian itunes stores?

    I have in the past created an Apple ID for use with the UK itunes store, because I want to read in English.  If I sign in it seems that this ID will only allow me to purchase from the UK store.  But I live in Belgium, so I can't download from the UK store.  So I tried to create an apple ID for the Belgian itunes store.  But I want to use the same email address as I used for the first apple ID I made (because I'm fed up of having to remember which email address I used for which account).  When I tried this, I just get a message saying that the email address is already in use for another account (which I know, because it's me who made that account).  Does anyone have a workaround for this?
    cheers

    I have tried again using the same password. and it still doesn't work.
    I'm presuming you went ahead and set up a new Apple ID, yes? Using the same password in more than one Apple ID has worked for me in the past, but I haven't tried it in a while so the tightened security may have changed that. You could use the same password but add "-UK" and "-BE", or something like that, to make it easier to remember.
    I understand what you mean about losing the ability to deal with UK purchased stuff, but this is becoming so inconvenient that I do want to delete that UK apple ID account.  I have looked everywhere I can think of on the apple website (apple id, itunes, support etc) and I can't find a link/eplanation/contact point that deals with deleting apple ID and itune store accounts.  Surely this must be possible?
    It's possible, but Apple is very reluctant to do it, and it's not something a user can do on their own. It would be better to just stop using the UK account rather than trying to get it deleted. Just remove your payment information and there should be little reason to have the account deleted. If you really want to try, though, you'll need to send a message to iTunes support specifying that you want the account cancelled.
    On a completely different matter, I have bought my son an ipod touch.  But since he is younger than 13 years old, how does one go about using the itunes store to get music onto his ipod touch?
    You would need to buy tracks for him; he's too young to have his own iTunes Store account. To control what gets synched to his iPod, this should help:

  • HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    A couple of different approached:
    Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
    Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

  • Please help.. me and my hubby both have the iphone 4 and use the same email address and itunes account. I got mine yesterday and activated it to find all my husbands contacts on my phone. I deleted them and he lost all his contacts. How can we stop this !

    Hy please help...
    My husband purchased  an iphone at xmas and evrything was fine until i purchased 1 yesterday . We both use the same email address which is linked to our itunes account (ithink) I registered mine yesterday and all my husbands contacts came on to my phone, so i deleted them and he lost them all on his phone :-( now if he adds or deletes anything i get it or the other way round please please help

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

  • HT204053 My husband and I both have iPhones but we only have one iPad. We use the same apple ID because we also share the same email address. How would this work with iCloud because we don't share the same contacts?  Thanks Elainecontacts

    My husband and I both have an iPhone and we share an iPad. We also share the same email address so how would this work with iCloud because we don't share all the same contacts?
    Thanks

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user.  That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) .  When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device.  You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc.  itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
    It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.

    I'm pretty sure different eMail addies are needed for different Apple IDs.
