Send email from iPhone with my iCloud alias

Hi,
My iCloud account is, let's say: [email protected]
I created an alias, let's say: [email protected]
I would like to use "[email protected]" on my iPhone and iPad but that seems impossible.
1. i tried "add a new account" with "[email protected]": i'm said my password is not valid
2. i tried to modify my current iCloud account: impossible, everything is greyed, the only way would be to delete the current, default iCloud account.
So, what can be done in order to send an email on my iPhone from "[email protected]"?
Thanks.

No problem Scottie, you did your best indeed ;-)
Yes I tried to login on icloud.com, no problem at all.
What's more, before posting (starting the present thread), I'd called AppleCare: they certified there was no problem to set up an alias on my iPhone. Now I don't get time to talk with them again. Enough is enough.
And just for the record: right after reentering my default "[email protected]" account details into my iPhone, i got an email from Apple saying "somebody" had done so on my iPhone and I'd better change my password!
That means, at least to my opinion, that aliases are not taken into account at all by Apple on iDevices. The only thing that matters is our default "[email protected]".
One more thing: why do I want an alias? Because as a former .mac and .mobileme customer I'm NOT ALLOWED BY APPLE to change my iCloud account name for a new one.
This is a shame. My "[email protected]" name was meant for the entire family in the times of MobileMe. Now this "[email protected]" doesn't mean anything since iCloud accounts are INDIVIDUAL accounts.
Apple are therefore harming their long-time, faithfull customers while somebody who was not a former MobileMe customer can change his/her iCloud account's name very easily. This doesn't make sense, I think.
Hope that's clear.

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi! I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1430 Cannot send email from iPhone 4S ..it keeps saying smpt password is incorrect but it is correct and I receive email no problem

Cannot send email from iPhone...keeps saying smpt password is incorrect but it is correct.. I recieve email no problem

On my own, I discovered the following, which worked (one responder got the solution part correct for Google): For Yahoo, where I just use a standard login with no extra verification, I had to go into Yahoo and change my password. Once I did this, the new iPhone had no problem registering accepting my Yahoo account. I WAS, however, using the correct password and user name all along, for those who did not think that was the case. The problem is on the iPhone software side. For Google, I use a two step verification, and for that, one must go to Google Mail and obtain a specific, unique password, that is designed to work only on iPhones. Hope this helps anyone else with this dilemma.

I can't send emails on iPhone with my hotmail account. Is it not possible?

I can't send emails on iPhone with my hotmail account. Is it not possible?

I am having the same issue. It started this week. I have 2 email accounts on my phone. One is a hotmail. And the other one is a network solutions email. I can receive from both but not send. I've deleted the accounts and added them back on and nothing. I'm going crazy because one is my work email!

Send email from OWB with authenticated SMTP server (AUTH_LOGIN)

Hi all,
I want to send email from Oracle Warehouse Builder 11.2.0.2 using a SMTP server with basic authentication (AUTH_LOGIN).
I've created an ACL for OWBSYS user according to note ID 1229769.1 in support.oracle.com.
But, I need to configure again the ACL to connect to the SMTP server using user and password.
I read the article in metalink, *How to Send an Email Using SMTP over an SSL Connection [ID 1323140.1]*+
but I don't know how can I configure again the ACL for use in OWB.
How OWB is able to authenticate with the SMTP server?
Thanks!
Maximiliano.

TS3899 Cannot send email from iPhone. Outgoing settings are correct. Checked against iPad setting which are OK and can send mail OK.

Cannot send email from iPhone. Outgoing settings are correct. Checked them against iPad settings which are OK and can send mail. What can I do?

For IOS7.02
The user name and password are in two places. Make sure they are correct in both locations.
Settings>>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>>your email>>
First spot is here under INCOMING MAIL SERVER
Below this is OUTGOING MAIL SERVER
Select: SMTP smtp.comcast.net>> PRIMARY SERVER :smtp.comcast.net>>second location of user name and password
Here is the second place that the user name and password must be checked.
I had changed my password in the first spot, but not the second spot. I had been receiving the same error message. This fixed my problem.

Sending email from Lr4 with Thunderbird

Can anyone provide some help for sending email from Lr4 with Thunderbird as the email program. When I select a photo and right-click Email Photo... I get the email photo dialog box with Mozilla Thunderbird in the From drop down. I click Send, and then I get an error message that says "There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel."
Well, it seems as thigh Lr has Thunderbird in the From drop down, it knows an email program exists. Thunderbird is set as the default. I'm not sure what associations I am supposed to make (.eml and .wdseml are the default extensions, MAILTO is the default protocol, and Send mail is the default MAPI).
Ay clues or hints?

My default mail program is Thunderbird, and it works OK with Lightroom. If you are on a Windows 7 PC, go to Control Panel and check this out.
Hope it helps.

Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

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.

Trouble sending email from iPhone...

How do I send email from my iPhone? I only seem to be able to send email from my gmail account or if my iPhone is working on my WiFi network. I can receive my email but it won't send if I am using EDGE. My ISP is Cox if that matters. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.

You can send messages with your Gmail account regardless your internet connection - via a wi-fi connection with different internet service providers and with EDGE because Gmail has an authenticated SMTP server.
Most internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the internet service provider used for the internet connection unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
Cox does not have an authenticated SMTP server - most internet service providers do not have an authenticated SMTP server.
If you have a wireless network at home with Cox as your internet service provider for your wireless network, you can send messages with your Cox email account and SMTP server when connected to this wi-fi network, and the same if you connect to a different wi-fi network if Cox is the internet service provider for the wi-fi network.
These restrictions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
If you have installed firmware update 2.0, this update includes at&t's SMTP server to be enabled when connected to the internet via at&t's cellular network to be used with an email account that does not have an authenticated SMTP server. You can use this SMTP server to send messages with the account when connected to the internet via at&t's cellular network or EDGE/3G. Using this SMTP server for your Cox account will not work when connected to a wi-fi network with Cox as the internet service provider, or with any other wi-fi network.
You will be better off using your Gmail account as your primary account with the iPhone and with your computer since Gmail has an authenticated SMTP server, which can be used to send messages with your Gmail account regardless the internet service provider used for your internet connection.

How do I send Emails from Iphone using mobile me aliases?

I am trying to send Emails from my iPhone whilst using the mobile me Email aliases in the 'From:' field. I can't seem to find instructions on how to do this.

Yep. You can set up MobileMe as a regular IMAP account and specify the "from" address that way; however, your emails will show as "From [email protected] on behalf of Your Name" in the recipient's inbox. I think it kind of defeats the purpose of sending from an alias if it's just going to display your user ID.

When trying to send email from my iphone 4.0 I get this message: The recepient was turned down by the server because it does not allow relays. How do I fix this?

As it happened before and it seems to be solved by itself, there are chances that the problem comes from your provider.

Can't send email from Outlook with parentheses in address

I can't send email from Outlook 2007 through my WRT400N when Outlook displays the address with parentheses as in this example: Firstname Lastname ([email protected])
I can send if the address is in this form: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>
I have tested with the ISP and nothing gets through the router when the problem occurs. When I bypass the router, both forms of address will send correctly. This problem is perfectly reproducible. My router is brand new, but the problem did not show up for about a week after installation. OS is Win7. Any ideas? Thanks.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try to forward the port 443 to 447 on the router.Check this link.
