OS Windows XP. Thunderbird version 31.1.1. Only one of my two email accounts has this problem, suddenly.
sounds to me like your trying to use say a comcast outgoing server to send Gmail mails hence also probably why one have an error and the other does not. Both are using the same outgoing server.
Right click the account in the list on the left and select settings
Select the account name in the dialog that opens and check that each account uses it's own SMTP sever from the drop down list.
If the list has only a single entry, go to the outgoing server (SMTP) entry in the list and add the server you need. -
I had multiple iPhones and iPads associated with the same apple account and I have now created a separate account for two of them. The question that I have is whether there is a way to transfer the icloud email address to the new account?
Welcome to the Apple community 1960gmd.
Once an iCloud address is used for an Apple ID, you can't use it for any other.
Why would you want to use another Apple ID if you already have the address you want to use in another.
If you want your email on all devices but use a different ID for iCloud add it as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars and just enable mail. -
I can connect to Thunderbird and receive email. However, I cannot send emails. When I press send (either from replying to an email or entering an email address manually) I get the following error message:
Sending of message failed.
No sender specified. Please fill in your email address in the Mail & Newsgroup Account settings.
When I click on the menu option within the email message Tools/Mail & Newsgroup, the message minimises and the programme returns me to my inbox. There is no Mail & Newsgroup setting on the mail programme.Sorry, I don't use Thunderbird and this is the Firefox support forum.

I keep getting this message:Sending of message failed (see below)
My email was hacked recently so I changed my password. I can receive emails but not send them. My email is a talktalk one and I use the Thunderbird system. Now, when I try to send I get the following message: Sending of message failed.
Unable to open the temporary file C:\Users\LynWW\AppData\Local\Temp\nsmail.tmp. Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting.
Can you help?
Thanks
LynIt looks like you are trying to select a patch of grass with the rectangular marquee tool.
OK. Do that. Now place the patch on its own layer (Layer>new>layer via copy or CTRL+J)
Use the move tool to position the patch where you want it. -
cant receive or send messages on my iPad. Keep getting "message failed to send" and it is green instead of blue. This happened after I turned on iCloud on my iPhone. Would that have anything to do with this problem? It's like its not sincing to my phone but I can send & receive emails ok.
iOS 7.1.2, huh? It MAY be having some trouble with the iOS 8.x devices and latest iCloud features. Although it meets the minimum system requirements, it does not meet the recommended ones - System requirements for iCloud - Apple Support
You should try Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support - this is generally the first step in troubleshooting, all devices - for all time
Message Colors
Blue is iMessage (Apple service)
Green is SMS (Carrier service)
What happens when you use your iPad similarly? (what iPad model & iOS version)
As a last resort*, Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support - *this document tells that all your data will be lost but provides steps to back-up (Before section) then restore your data (Restore section #4) -
"Message Failed To Send," but it actually sends it 6 times!
This started happening this morning. Whenever I try to send a text, whether it be a regular text or iMessage, I keep getting a message saying "Message Failed To Send," and then it has a red exclamation point by the message and it says "Not Delivered." If that's not annoying enough, the recipients are actually receiving the message 6 times! Is anyone else having this issue? I'm using a [brand new] iPhone 5S on AT&T service, if that matters. I'm about to throw this iPhone at the wall... HELP!
Throwing it at the wall will certainly stop it from sending the message six times, along with everything else. First thing to do is reset the phone, following the procedure outlined below.
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) -
Message failed to send but has arrived
I am having the same problem. It only seems to occur when I'm including a photo in the message. It says "Message failed to send," but it usually goes through.

after opening an email I knew to be a phishing attempt, I forwarded it to my bank's spam/phishing email address. I did NOT click any link in the suspicious email. only forwarded it.

Unable to open the temporary file C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp\nsemail.eml. Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting.

Does the problem go away? -
Periodically, text messages seem to hang for a long period of time in the "sending" status. Then I get an error message that says the message failed to send. When I check with the recipient, they usually say they did receive the message. Sometimes they say they received the same message three times.
I cannot see a pattern for when these failures occur. It has happened when I have one bar and when I have 4 bars. It has happened when I'm connected to 3G or 4G, and when I'm connected to wifi.We want to see those picture messages flying again! Does the wireless signal appear strong when attempting the message? What Messaging app are you using myustbedumb? Are you also using a Network Extender?
Thank you,

When sending an email I get the following:
Sending of message failed.
The SMTP server smtp-server.cfl.rr.com does not seem to support encrypted passwords. If you just set up the account, please try changing to 'Password, transmitted insecurely' as the 'Authentication method' in the 'Account Settings | Server settings'. If it used to work and now suddenly fails, this is a common scenario how someone could steal your password.You would do better to start you own thread and actually state your problem with any details that you have. The error messages tells you to check your server settings.
FYI: IMAP is for inbound email so if you are having problems sending, the IMAP server has nothing to so with that. SMTP servers send email. -
Messages fail to send constantly..
I always have 3/4 bars of 4G. if I send a text message more and more often it comes up message failed to send, I've tried putting my phone on aeroplane mode and send the message again but it doesn't work.. any ideas?
Are phone calls ok? There seems to be a lot of issues with signal around at the mo?
First of give it the good old fashion turn off and on again, is it all messages that fail?
If it isn't, go to message, tap details in top right corner, then the i next to the contacts name, this will show you the contact card for that person, the number/email address it is trying to send to will be highlighted blue.
Normal text messages (green text bubble in message app) will only go to numbers not email addresses, and iMessage will only go to other iOS devices via number or email (blue text bubble) -
Whenever i try and send an imessage to someone that has an iphone it gets stuck at times and won't go through. I then have to send it as a basic text and then it will respond message failed to send what should i do when it does this i need help
The use of iMessage depends on both the sender and the receiver having an active data connection. If either of the two connections are interrupted, the message can fail. The sending of an iMessage differs from the sending of an SMS, and if you are having SMS failures, that would be a carrier concern.

Photos 10.10.3 will not let me play or move my videos and keeps sending a message saying "can not find file". What do I do to get the videos back? It is only during videos that I previously uploaded off my phone. It loads them and tells me how long they are but when I go to press play it says can not find file. I have restarted my computer, what else can I do?
Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem. -
Does FaceTime send an automatic text message to the email address of the user trying to call me?
I called my friend's cell phone, via FaceTime, on my macbook using my email address.
The call said she was unavailable, and immediately after, I received a text message to my email address from her cell phone number saying "can't talk right now, what's up". I thought it was strange since she never texts my email from her phone, and I had never received a message like that from FaceTime before.
She said she never sent the email. Is it possible FaceTime does it automatically, and why all of a sudden now? Or, was her cell hacked, or it was just her?Hi nquan1989,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post where you received a message indicating the person you were contacting was busy, indicates they elected to send a message and decline the call, thus sending the message to your email.
Can’t take a call right now? When a FaceTime call comes in, you can answer, decline, or choose another option.
Make and answer calls
Cheers,
Alex H.
