Sending mail from servers at work

I'm having trouble sending mail when I'm connected to the wireless network at work. I am very unfamiliar with networks and such so I haven't tried anything to remedy the problem. When I send an email, I get a message that says the server isn't available. I'm provided with a list of alternatives but I end up just selecting "Try Later". Any help with this is much appreciated.

Sending mail from servers with non-ASCII names

As part of an effort to internationalize our product we're testing on machines with host names that include non-ASCII characters (accented e's and whatnot). When trying to send mail from these machines we're getting:
javax.mail.MessagingException: 501 5.5.4 Invalid Address
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.issueCommand(SMTPTransport.java:1634)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.helo(SMTPTransport.java:1068)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.protocolConnect(SMTPTransport.java:458)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:291)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:172)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:121)
at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:190)
at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:120)
at msgsendsample.main(msgsendsample.java:86)
Looking at a network trace I see the EHLO command being sent as
EHLO test[0xe9][0xdf]\r\n
where the machine name is testéß. From a Unicode table 0xe9 0xdf = é ß.
I found a reference from RFC 5336 (SMTP Extension for Internationalized Email Addresses) that says the hostname in the EHLO must be in the form of ACE (ASCII-compatible encoding) labels:
3.7.1. The Initial SMTP Exchange
When an SMTP connection is opened, the server normally sends a
"greeting" response consisting of the 220 response code and some
information. The client then sends the EHLO command. Since the
client cannot know whether the server supports UTF8SMTP until after
it receives the response from EHLO, any domain names that appear in
this dialogue, or in responses to EHLO, MUST be in the hostname form,
i.e., internationalized ones MUST be in the form of ACE labels.
ACE encoding for my machine would be: java.net.IDN.toASCII("test4éß") --> "xn--testss-eva".
I'm not sure if this RFC applies in this case - I didn't know anything about the guts of SMTP until yesterday - but it makes sense that you'd need to escape the hostname in the EHLO until you can negotiate capabilities.
Looking at the JavaMail API it seems that if I were to call SMTPTransport.helo(String domain) myself without going through the higher-level Transport class that maybe I could work around the issue, but I haven't looked into it enough to know if that's feasible.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? I'm using JavaMail 1.4.2 on Windows 2003 and Exchange as my SMTP server.
thanks,
Eric

Same problem here (or at least in part). Some .mac folders did no longer show any messages, while they were there and could be seen online and with Thunderbird. After your remark I changed the name of a folder which contained a "´" and now it works. It is really strange because there is another folder with a "¨" in it which does not work (I will test if the name change works with this folder as well in a minute) whilst there is another one with such name which works fine. The update really messed up Mail and in Dutch we just use such characters so Mail without supporting them will be rather useless for me...

Smtp server won't send mail from the office, works fine at home...

Ugggg... AOL!!! I can't send my emails from my Mac Mail program using my aol account from the office. This works fine from other connections. I am wireless at work and at home and elsewhere all the time and don't have a problem. I CAN'T send out using smtp.aol.com from the office, using my aol account and passord in the preferences etc. I've worked out of this office in the past and didn't have a problem but haven't been able to send out all week...

Welcome to the Discussions.
Many ISP are blocking the use of any third party SMTP, sometimes even when presented on Port 587 (I presume you are using Port 587?) -- could it be that the ISP connecting the office, has changed policy?

Gmail "send mail as" setting not working from iPhone

I added a second gmail account to Mail. This gmail account has the "send mail as" setting set to show a different "from" address than the actual gmail account, and works fine when I send mail from my desktop. When I send mail from that account through Mail on the iPhone, it does not pick up this setting and the actual gmail account appears as the "from" address. I don't see any place in Settings or Mail to set this, and I couldn't find previous discussions of it here. Any help? Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

Cannot send mail from any mail account

I have a Mac Mini, late 2014 model, running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I have constant difficulty sending mail from any of my mail accounts; these are iCloud, Googlemail, Yahoo and a personal one which uses 123-reg.co.uk. I am currently located in Greece, but have been having trouble for ages, even in the UK. I can receive mail, but I don't seem able to send it. Error message is usually simply cannot send mail using this server, select a different server. However, when connection doctor is run, all servers appear to be connected and I am logged in. Any ideas please?

Hi Subhash,
I have done the troubleshooting but I didn't find any problem at server side. I will send you mail also with all EXBPA report and as well DC, HC and Mailbox servers' Application Log and System Log.
Below are the questions's answers which was asked by you:
1.     Please check whether you can send email via Outlook.
I am not able to open the MS Outlook. Please check all details in this thread : http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchange2010/thread/c491c5c7-7d6f-48ff-97fa-6bf83d94e53c
2.     Please run EXBPA to have a health scan.
I have run the EXBPA and didn't see any critical Problem. I have took the screen shot and report. Please have a look in below screen shot link:

3.     Please check application log, whether any error event logged there. They could come from ADAccess related error or etc.
I didn't see any ADAccess event on the server. For this I have left my lab PC open and I will check again.
4.     We find that if mail .que gets corrupt, then this issue will occur, please try to move the affected user to another store and then test the issue.
I am facing this problem with all users (7 users). Anyway I moved one user from one server Mailbox Database (2mbx2010) to Other Server Mailbox Database (mbx2010). After that
a) Rebooted the Workstation
b) Login successfully with same user.
c) Delete the Old MS Outlook Profile
d) Create New profile for same user without any problem.
e) Tried to login in MS Outlook and got the same error. : http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchange2010/thread/c491c5c7-7d6f-48ff-97fa-6bf83d94e53c
f) Open the OWA successfully for Same user.
g) Tried to send mail but again mail went to Drafts Folder.
5.     I noticed that you test the issue after you close outlook. I recommend you to reboot your pc and then access
mailbox via OWA to test the issue.
I tried you suggested option, but sorry it also couldn't help.
6. You also check your disk space.
     All Servers have Enough Disk Space. Check the EXBPA Report.
7. You may run EXTRA to get log information for further troubleshooting.
Need more time for this.
8. Please save application log, system log as *.evt file, then send them with EXTRA,EXBPA report to [email protected] .
   I have sent it as your mentioned mail address OR, you can get the mentioned log from below link also:

There will be some error log you will be that the system is not able to communicate with DC/DC, MBX or HC at everyday around 3 AM or some time 6 PM Evening also. These error came because I have installed VM on Windows 7 Workstation and after 45 min or one hrs. if I don't work on PC, then pc goes to sleep. so you may ignore these alerts.
I hope my answer will give you some clue and I expect more help from your side.

How do I specify the gmail outgoing server if I have multiple gmail accounts in my mail? I have 2 business accounts and when I send mail from one account, it is sent from the other account and the sending email is not from the correct account.

I love my apple email and do not want to use google mail on safari. However, I have 2 gmail accounts set up on apple mail, but when I send mail from one of my gmail accounts (I choose the specific gmail account in the drop down window), it actually goes out as if it is from the other gmail account. I can't have that happen because one is my job, the other is a personal business account and unfortunately, the mail from both gmail accounts want to send through the personal business account. How do I make it send from a specific gmail account? I even tried deleting the accounts and setting them up again hoping I set it up wrong in the first place, but to no avail, it is still doing the same thing except this time I set the job account up first and then the personal business account and now everything goes from the job account! The only good thing is that the incoming messages work properly and they go into the correct inbox. Somebody please fix my outbox!

In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account. The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

Sending mail from non-BT accounts

I have email accounts with Apple (mobileMe), my own domain (hosted by Verio) and another of my own domains (hosted by Network Solutions) - as well as the BTinternet.com email account.
Until today, all four accounts were set up on my email client (Apple Mail) to use their own respective SMTP servers for outgoing mail, and all four have worked fine in this way for literally years.
This morning, I started getting error messages trying to send mail from the domain hosted by Verio ("cannot send message using the server [my own domain's SMTP server]").
In the end, I followed the steps outlined in a thread on this forum to "add" the account to BTYahoo, verify it, and change the email client settings to use BT's SMTP server. So now it works fine.
What I don't get is why I had to change this one account, when the other non-BT accounts (Apple and NS SMTP servers) continue to work fine as they are (ie using their own server details for outgoing mail).
Anyone know the answer? Obviously it works, so there's no problem (apart from wasting 2 hours this morning trying to figure out what the **bleep** had gone wrong), just curious as to BT's logic here.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Gregch.
To be honest, the problem seems to be at the destination smtp service end and nothing to do with BT. You've not really supplied any details of the error message - is there anything else in the received message ?
You've assumed that it's a BT fault, rather than perhaps investigating the possible error at Verio. As the other accounts work as exists, it really does point at Verio (or indeed something local, perhaps a security package interferring etc).

Sending Mail from Alias

I have two alias emails that I use for our web page, as well as for alternate email addy. When I try to send mail from the alias addresses in the Mail app I get the "cannot send using the server smtp.mac.com. The server response was: 5.7.0 From address is not one of your addresses Use the pop up menu below...". I have to select a different SMTP server and .mac server does not show on the listing but rather the other email servers (i.e. google/cox etc)
I have removed accounts, deleted servers, re-created cache etc for the Mail application, and even did a test of the address which worked fine once before.
My goal is to send announcements to family from the one alias so I know it was in response to the web page announcements etc. I wish to keep my primary as private as possible.
Thanks!

Hopefully I can answer your questions:
1) Alias(s) were created on Mobile Me on my account. From the Mail application I wish to "send" from the Alias(s) rather than my main email address i.e. - main email is [email protected], I created [email protected] via Mobile Me as an alias, in Mail application it allows you to select the "account" from which to send from. If I select the alias, I get the error message.
2) They are alias(s) that are part of my main email address for .mac. So I believe the are valid, unless I miss-understand the use of an alias and it is only for receiving mail.
3) Not sure, I think they would use the .mac SMTP server (?)

Cant send mail from 1 account

I have 3 mail accounts on my powerbook, one is bellsouth. When I try to send mail from the bellsouth account, it tells me it can't use the selected server. Bellsouth won't let me use other servers ( including .mac accounts) so if I have to send mail when I'm connected via bellsouth I have to use that account. I'm able to send via bellsouth from my other notebok ( windows) so the problem has to be on the powerbook somewhere. I've deleted the account from mail, and re-added it a few times, all to no avail.
any suggestsion would be greatly appreciated!

Sending Mail from jsp

Hi guys,
can anyone help me out of this problem ??
I have written a piece of code which sends mail from a jsp page.

as you said that it might require authentication
but our mail server doesn't require authentication to mail.
Now what should i do ??Many servers are now authenticating by requiring you to fetch your e-mail before sending. This is basically because most SMTP mail servers CAN NOT authenticate in the normal sense of the word. So, they use the fetch process for authentication. The fetch process already requires authentication normally. Then your IP address will be good for, say, 20 minutes, and you can relay e-mail through the server.
It works with most E-mail clients such as Outlook or Netscape, because the default behavior is to 1.Connect to the POP server, 2.Login, 3.Download any new mail, 4.Connect to the SMTP server, 5.Upload any mail to send.
Even if you don't have any mail, your IP address will at least have been authenticated. Even if you just check for mail, and not download any, you should be OK.
So what I'd suggest is that you write some code that attempts to connect to your mail system's POP server, get authenticated successfully, then try sending out the e-mail through the SMTP server.

Cannot send mail from mac mail or Entourage

Hi guys,
Wondered if anyone out there can shed some light on this little problem.
I use Entourage for my emails & all was working fine until yesterday. I can receive mail from all and sundry but I can't send anything. I subscribe to ntlworld internet service and if log onto my email through their webmail, then it's fine. I've tried sending mail from mac mail and I get the same problem. I've been onto microsoft support & gone through all the troubleshooting with Entourage. The Entourage techy suggested it was my internet provider blocking my emails as they think I'm a spammer?? I phoned ntl & they insist it's nothing to do with them as I can send/receive from the website. (If I send an email with the address @ntlworld it's fine, but any other address i.e. all my clients/mates etc just stays in my outbox.
Nothing on any of my settings has changed so I'm at a loss what to do next.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mel

it may be that your server (internet provider) has just started blocking outgoing mails not authenticated by them.
Go to your account set up...
and fill in the following details.
SMTP SERVER: smtp.mac.com
then click on advanced sending otions...
click on override default SMTP port... type 587
click on SMTP servber requires authentication...
use same setting as receiving mail server.
try this...

Cannot send mail from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007

I have an
Exchange 2007server with all roles in the same server (Version:
08.03.0327.001 ) on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have now installed two Exchange 2013 servers both with CAS and MBX roles on Windows 2012 servers
(full patched). There is also a DAG between the new servers. All mail goes through a BorderWare besides the internal mail.
I can send mail from both environments to the Internet. I can also send internal mail from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.But the problem is that I am unable to send from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007. I've debugged, but not solved the problem and there are
few articles on the Internet.
Any suggestions?

These two sentences are in conflict : "I can also send
internal mail
from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. But
the problem is
that I am unable
to send from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. "
Can you describe what is your real problem? Flow from E2007->E2013? Or vice versa?
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you. Thank you! Damir

Can no longer send mail from other apps

Problem:
If I go into any app (other than Mail) and try to send a message (via email) and I either get nothing or some apps will say that "Mail needs to be configured in order to do this." After doing a restore on my iPod touch (4th Gen., running the latest iOS5) I had only configured a few accounts under "Mail, Contacts, Calenddars", and *was* able to send mail from other apps just fine. Now that I have 13 accounts I cannot; not only is Mail configured and working fine (by itself,) but I now only have one account with "Mail" activated, and it is indeed set as the "default account" in Settings anyhow. This is frustrating since some apps depend on email to let me export its data but is also a nuisance since it makes it more difficult for me to share content with others.
Has anyone encountered this bug and/or have a tip?

It is possible the Evil Starbucks empire has blocked SMTP sending as an antispam measure. You would need to log in to your email server using the smtpauth protocol. For example, Earthlink has an smtpauth.earthlink.net server for secure sending, which I was able to use sending from any public AP. Possibly T-Mobile has a similar authorized server.
But nowadays I just use Gmail, they make it easy and reliable to send from anywhere because they use a custom smtp port. Yeah, Gmail solved a multitude of problems with mobile sending.
