Sending limit exceeded

Hi,
Every couple of days I seem to be getting the "daily sending limit exceeded" message when I try to send mail.  I'm aware that the limit is 200 messages per day, but I haven't send even close to that.  In fact, I've probably sent about 200 messages this month!
Really can't understand why, but it's pretty frustrating.
Edit - should note that it's my iCloud email that's giving me this error.  *@me.com account.

Hey greigb99!
I have an article for you that has some information regarding this message and how to proceed:
iCloud: Mailbox size and message sending limits
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863
If you continue to exceed message sending limits, try the following methods to resolve the issue:
Check your Mail Outbox to see if it contains a backlog of messages. Resend or delete messages here that may be continuing to try to send.
Check to see if you have any network monitoring software that might be using your iCloud account to automatically send messages, such as firewalls or internet security software configured to send an alert when a potential security issue is detected.
If you send messages to groups, make sure all email addresses in the group are valid. (For example, is the recipient's email address spelled correctly?
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • HT4863 email sending limit exceeded on iPhone

    I suddenly started getting this message. "A copy has been placed in your outbox. Send the message filaed because dyou exceeeded you sending limit."
    background:
    I use two servers 1. yahoo and 2. .me.com
    My yahoo emails work fine.
    i use .me on occasion only.
    Today i used .me for the first time and i get this message.
    I sent a test message containing the subjevct and the body text work "Test" to a fiend. It fails and i get this above message.
    So it is not related to a real limit.
    My icloud account is paid up. I just added another $20 the other day.
    My .me.com emailing is very low level.
    I rebooted my iphone  - no improvement.
    I removed the icloud server and replaced it  - no improvement.
    I deleted all my 'sent email' - no improvement.
    What next? Help?
    thanks

    I have seen few questions here, just like yours. All of them were solved by reentering password in me.com mail settings and verifying other information. I was trying to locate one of those for you with precise instructions, but seem to be unable. See if reentering just password will help and if not come back here and look for similar discussions.

  • Error message: sending failed because you exceeded your sending limit

    I can't send any more e-mails from my iphone 4S anymore. The message I get reads: A copy has been placed in your outbox. Sending failed because you exceeded your sending limit. My contract offers unlimited data so that can't be the problem. The problem occurred after I tried to send a photo with an address change notification to about 50 addressees from my addressbook. I have deleted that mail from my outbox but can still not send any mails.
    Thanks for your help

    Hey Hall-K,
    Since you have deleted the message and are still experiencing issues sending email, I would check out the following article and follow the troubleshooting steps within (which I pasted below):
    iOS: Unable to send or receive email
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
    If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
    Restart the iOS device.
    Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
    Try an alternative Internet connection.
    If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
    If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi:  Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
    If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
    Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
    Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
    Hope that helps,
    David

  • Exceeded sending limit

    When trying to send an email on my iphone, I keep getting the following message:
    "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message failed because you exceeded you sending limit."
    When I contacted my carrier, they told me I couldn't send more than 200 emails in a 24 hour period.  I haven't even
    sent a dozen emails in 24 hours.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    Ya, I meant note.
    A failed message that's been repeatedly trying to send likely caused the issue, if you are certain you are within the limits noted here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863
    It will reset in 24hrs.  If not, give apple a ring:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

    Found this and it worked! THANK YOU NEALE
    HT4863 Re: on IOS states "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message failed because you exceeded your sending limit.". This is not true is was the third email that I sent. Whats the problem here 
    Jun 11, 2013 10:01 AM (in response to hooptycam)
    This happened today out of the blue. I was having problems with my Yahoo account stalling on my iMac so decided to change over to iCloud...
    After sending the first email sucessfuly telling everyone of the change I got "The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server p05-smtp.mail.me.com"
    After much frustration and time I eventually set up a new outgoing server...
    Mail/Preferences/Accounts/Outgoing Mail Server SMTP / (drop down select) Edit SMTP server list/ +new and double click and enter 'smtp.mail.me.com'/ then select Advanced tab/ check, use default ports/ check use SSL/Authentication - Password/ enter username and password/click okay to retuen to Preferences/Select 'smtp.mail.me.com...etc' as outgoing mail server and select TLS com.apple...etc certificate /Save
    This has cured the problem for me, but seems like a bit of a farce really.
    On iPad and iPhone it's pretty much the same deal but it's slightly different.
    Settings/iCloud/Account/Advanced/Mail (allow sending from [email protected]) / Outgoing Mail Server/Primary Server (set to off)/Add server/Host Name - enter 'smtp.mail.me.com' /username & Password/SSL set to On/Authentication - set to Password/Server port 587
    All of this worked for me so I hope I save someone the same headache I had ALL DAY! So freakish that this ahppened to a all deivces in one day unless there is a coms problem with Icloud here, but everything else works...I hope...

    On only one email account on the Ipad 3rd gen. - receive "error - message failed because exceeded your sending limit"?  Anyone have any ideas.  I can send just fine from a desktop on this account?

  • TS4002 exceeded sending limit??

    when trying to send mail "A copy has been placed in your outbox.Sending the message failed because you exceeded your sending limit" pops up.

    These are the limits for iCloud mail - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863
    If not using an iCloud account, you need to check with your email provider as to what the limits for thier services are.
