Send outgoing messages action buggy?

Could someone confirm the following behavior of the "send outgoing messages action"?
create a workflow consisting of this single action and then create an outgoing message in Mail. run the workflow. Does this send the message you just created? The action description says that if the action has no input, all outgoing messages will be sent out. however, when i run it, nothing happens.

didn't know about the other two but here is one more:
make new outgoing message
The description says that if text passed to it as input it's included in the message. In fact this does not happen. I've tried every which way i could. I've recently submitted a bug report about it too and it's still open.
all of this reminds me why i gave up on automator and switched to apple script...
Die Sache mit der Deutschen Lokalisation tut mir Leid. Das habe Ich auch nich gewusst. Warum bin Ich nicht überrascht...

  • Automator "Send Outgoing Messages" Workflow Failed - 1 error

    Hello,
    In my hunt to be able to send a personalised templated e-mail to multiple recipents using Mac Mail, I came accross the automator feature. I've tinkered around with it but can't seem to generate the final action of sending.
    1) New Mail Message (all fields have data as I read in another thread that this might generate errors.)
    2) Get Specified Address Book Items
    3) Group Mailer
    4) Send Outgoing Messages (this is where I get a Workflow failed - 1 error)
    Steps 1-3 have green tick marks, Step 4 has the error.
    Can anyone point out where I might be going wrong?
    I'm using 10.7.2

    Anyone?????

  • Why is my mail app not sending outgoing messages?

    When using mail application, my outgoing messages remain in my outbox.   If I log into my email through a browser, my outgoing messages will send.
    I assumed my new MacBook was setup correctly from the Apple Store.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    Check your outgoing (SMTP) mail in mail preferences, make sure that it is set to your mail server and not none or something else. After upgrades, these things can get messed up.

  • Can't send outgoing messages using hotmail on iPhone 4

    Help! I've just switched from iPhone 3 (where I used my hotmail with no probs) to iPhone 4 and have been setting it up as I had it before. I've added my hotmail account and incoming emails are received but it won't let me send outgoing mail. It keeps asking for a password but when I enter it (and re-enter it over and over again) it keeps asking for the password! Has anyone else had this problem?

    So you went thru the apple support link that I gave you and still can't text.
    Then you restored and reset the phone and still can't text.
    Call the carrier  - ?
    Look I've been giving you some troubleshooting tips, that I would give anybody else who is having issue with sending text message.
    Your last resort after doing all the fixes would be to call the carrier.
    Call your fiancee carrier and see what they say.

  • Apple Mail won't send outgoing messages

    I recently had my computer sent in for repairs and when i got it back I had to set-up mail again. Before I sent it out mail was working perfectly but now after setting it up the exact same way it won't sent any outgoing messages. When I send them they go straight to the outbox. I am using Tiger 10.4.10

    Sorry, but you are posting in the Mail for Leopard discussion. You'll probably get better help in the Mail for Tiger discussion.

  • Iphone will receive mail but not send outgoing messages?

    Hey people,
    So my iphone 3gs will recieve my incoming mail and my passwords are all entered in the system. However, when I try to send out and Outgoing message on my screen appears the message "Cannot Send Mail- No password provided for email, Please go to Mail Account settings and enter a password". In my settings it says that my passwords entered are correct and I can recieve my incoming mail but I cannot send my Outgoing mail. Help!

    HI Friend,
    I solved my problem filling the fields like SMTP, user name, and password on my outgoing mail server setting as well as your incoming mail server setting. (Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>your account>Outgoing Mail Server: SMTP>tap your Primary Server, check all your info for Outgoing Mail Server).
    Hope it will be helpful,

  • I suddenly can't send outgoing messages

    Through Mail, I can receive incoming but can't send outgoing unless l go directly through my email's online mail server. I shift around between routers in my home country all the time, but when I went overseas for 3 weeks at Christmas, all of a sudden I couldn't send outgoing mail. Now I'm back on my home router and it still won't work even tho it had no problems before the trip.
    I read Mail Help and tried all the things it said.
    I checked all the settings, they were correct.
    I copied all the settings to a new account, checked they were correct, deleted the old one, and it still won't work.
    Deleted all the unused smtp servers.
    Pinged it and got this message:
    "10 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss" -- I'm assuming that means something's wrong, but Mail didn't say what to do after that.
    When I plugged directly into my router and tried to send, I still got the same message:
    "This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
    Verify that you have addressed this message correctly. Check your SMTP server settings in Mail Preferences and verify any advanced settings with your system administrator."
    I love my apple, but I'm getting mildly frustrated. Can anyone help??!!

  • Cant send outgoing messages from Outlook

    Yesterday I had a problem with my outlook e0mail account. I deleted the account, changed the password and now although I can receive mail I cannot send mail in the account. I keep getting the error message :
    Task '********@btinternet.com - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC78) : 'Cannot send the message. Verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The server responded: 530 authentication required - Your email could not be sent. To fix this you must make a simple change to your email client (known as SMTP authentication). For advice visit http://www.bt.com/smtp'
    On typing in the web page it no longer exists.
    Can anyone else help here.
    regards
    Pete
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You need to make sure the 'My server requires authentication' box is ticked. See screenshot

  • Switched isp - can't send outgoing messages anymore

    Just switched from Verizon DSL to Cox as ISP. Continue to receive email messages, but get error message "The outgoing mail server "stmp.mac.com" failed to deliver this message. The connection to the server "stmp.mac.com" on port 25 timed out." I tried switching this to Cox's "stmp.east.cox.net" but get a message that the server cannot be contacted. I'm clueless about this stuff so appreciate any insights you can offer.

    Is Verizon's SMTP server still available to choose from in Mail?
    If there are any SMTP servers available in Mail not being actively used by any accounts, this can sometimes cause problems.
    Something to try.
    Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below for the .Mac SMTP server.
    Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
    Test if this resolves the problem.
    Are you able to send messages with your Cox email account and SMTP server?
    If so, selecting the Cox SMTP server for your .Mac account should work.

  • Leopard sends outgoing messages to OpenDNS on port 139

    I noticed in some other threads comments about new outgoing network communications in Leopard that people were noticing in their router logs, Little Snitch, etc.
    One example...
    Every 5 minutes OS X 10.5 sends several packets to 208.69.32.137:139 (protocol 6).
    This is a TCP transmission to OpenDNS.com and appears to be related to the parental controls adult blocking feature. If adult blocking is turned off in System preferences, these packets go away.

    Can someone shed some light on why the repeated attempted accesses to OpenDNS.com on port 139 are necessary?
    I tested the adult blocking feature, while keeping outgoing port 139 blocked. Safari shows a custom OpenDNS page and gives the option to white list the page (with an administrator password of course). My router (via syslog) confirms the successful adult blocking. Also shown are the port 139 attempts:

  • HELP! Entourage won't send outgoing messages

    Hi
    I have Entourage and Gmail linked together. All my gmails come into Entourage and I've been using Entourage for my emailing for years without problem.
    Now it won't let me send any. I've reset it from Google again but no joy. The error message I get is: *The server can't be found. Be sure the mail server information is entered correctly in the Account Manager, and that your DNS settings in the Network Control Panel are correct.*
    The information is the same as it always was. The only thing I can find in my DNS settings is a DNS server coupled with a search domain for my old lodger who left over a year ago. It's greyed out and I can't even get at it.
    Does any kind soul have a solution to my problem or shall I just throw it out the window and get a new one?
    Many many thanks
    Weetbix.

    Please post questions regarding Entourage on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products since this forum is for troubleshooting Apple's Mail applicatoin and not related to Microsoft Office

    I don't believe that they are stored anywhere but you could certainly
