Sent mail is not being received

Some of my emails use my me.com account are not being received by the recipient.
The emails show being SENT in my SENT box.

I have a similar but perhaps unrelated problem. Every now and then, I send an email on my gmail account using Mail. The sent mail appears in my sent box, but never arrives, and does not appear in my webmail sent box (where it usually does, using gmail). Most of the time it works, and it even works most of the time with people it has had a problem with, including mail I send to myself at work at my professional address. Usually arrives...but not always. I don't know how to trust my sent mail box without always going on the webmail to make sure it actually went out. I only have this problem when using the Mail application, but there are no other common characteristics (attachements, ISPs, etc) to say there could be a problem with one of those things. Anyone else have this problem?

Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4.

Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4. I had to go website to retrieve about 50 emails from last couple of days. Everything looks correct in settings and I haven't changed anything that I know of. Please help if you've encountered this issue.

I tried the suggestion of deleting the account and starting over from scratch (twice), to no avail.

Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately.

Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately. The incoming server details haven't changed; the Connection Doctor shows the accounts are connected; I've turned everything off including the modern. Have exhausted my limited knowledge. Anyone with something similar?

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

Some mail sent from Mail is not being received or sent

I am losing mail, both received and sent, intermittantly. It definitely involves my .Mac email account but I don't know if it involves others. A friend who also has a .Mac account is experiencing the same problem. It does NOT necessarily have to do with any attachments or bcc's. Is anyone else?
iMac G-5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Sent mail is not being deleted on iPad.

I read a support page that said it should automatically delete sent messages based on the setting for how many messages to display, after a time delay, but it is set to 20 yet I had 500 messages in a sent mail folder (pop account) dating back to early June. Has anyone else seen this problem or know what may be wrong?

I'm SO frustrated with this Yahoo! email integration... I'm seeing the same issues as you:
1) PUSH email stops pushing
2) "Sent" email messages ("whoosh" sound implies all is well) via Yahoo! are not actually being sent.
This would be bad enough if when sending email the client actually told me there was a failure... but it turns out it's been a completely transparent problem. All appears well, but isn't.
The only solution I seem to have found is to delete the Yahoo mail account in the Settings/Mail area, and then re-add it through the Settings/Mail UI. After doing this I find that Push notifications and the ability to send email via Yahoo! mail returns.
.... The problem is that - based on previous experience - it won't be long before the client, or Yahoo (I have no idea where the problem really lies) will quietly stop functioning again.
I'm also a Yahoo! Plus email subscriber, if this has anything to do with the issue. Any non-plus users out there running into this issue?
Apple / Yahoo / AT&T... PLEASE fix this!

Sent mail suddenly not being kept

I just noticed that both mail accounts on our computer are have not kept any copied of sent mail since the beginning of NOv. No e-mail addresses have been changed and all the settings are set for the sent mail to be saved in the preferences...what is wrong? Do I have to reinstall the mail to fix this?

For what type of account - .Mac, IMAP or POP?
If either account is a .Mac or IMAP type account, do you select store Sent messages on the server which is available under the Special Malboxes tab for the account preferences?
If both accounts are POP type accounts, how many messages are available in the Sent mailbox for each account?

Comcast E-mail's Not Being Received

Hi
Is anyone having problems with their Comcast contacts' e-mail's being catagorized by Verizon as Spam?
I have a contact that uses Comcast e-mail where this began happening a few days ago. I can add his e-mail in my Settings section as "Safe" and that works but I was wondering if this is a system-wide issue between Concast and Verizon e-mail.
My contact is receiving all of my E-mail's but his incoming e-mail's are all getting sent to the Verizon Spam folder unless I add his address to the "Safe" filter list.
I sent an e-mail to [email protected] with my contact's e-mail address a couple of days ago. That doesn't seem to have had an effect on the issue.

Looks like your doing everything that I would advise. [email protected] is more so when your sending and the outgoing spam filter is catching it from what I understand from when I had this problem a while ago.
I would suggest the safe senders list if that helps you get your email in the inbox for the customer's

Mail replies not being received

Hello all,
I have a cousin in France that I am not able to receive email from.
My emails get through to him, but his replies are not received by me.
I've checked with other members of the family here in Australia, and it appears that those of us who use BigPond as our ISP can send but not receive. However, we can communicate if I use my Hotmail account.
My cousin uses Wanadoo in France as his ISP. He's using an intel iMac running Tiger V1 and Mail 2.1.3.
As far as he knows, he hasn't set up any particular rules in Mail. He only has this problem sending to or replying to email sent via BigPond.
BigPond tell me that it's not a problem at our end.
So, either it's a problem at Wanadoo, or a problem with the way he's set up his account.
A search of this forum did not turn up similar issues.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Cheers.

An e-mail is not being received

I have tried to figure this one out for about an hour. My banker has been trying to send me an e-mail and I am not receiving it. I have been receiving all of my other e-mails and the banker has been able to send the same e-mail to others successfully.
My first thought since I was receiving all of my e-mails except for this one is that it is a problem with the sender, but since they have not had any problems either I'm clueless to where the problem is coming from. Any information would be very much appreciated.

Double check you are sorting the e-mail in the inbox so you can see the most recent e-mail, and that you checked your most recent e-mail, and any message that might have arrived at the same time as your banker's e-mail is in plain view when sorted by time.
If you are filtering spam, check your spam mailbox.
If you are not filtering spam, it is possible your internet service provider has setup a realtime blackhole for that address, and needs to stop doing that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealtimeBlackholeList
These are really insideous problems, because someone can spoof an address, and make it appear to certain internet providers the sender is a spammer, when in reality they are not.

Photo's sent via email not being received with attachment file

I have a question regarding emailing photos (jpg) files. Though I am able to send the JPG files, when the person receives them they only see the picture but do not have the ability to download the attachment as none is visible. I have tried various methods but none have helped me. Also, can iPhoto import RAW ?

when the person receives them they only see the picture but do not have the ability to download the attachment as none is visible.
If they can see the picture then they have got the file. It's a setting on their end to figure out how to download it.
Also, can iPhoto import RAW ?
Er, yes but... RAW is a generic term for these files but every camera produces a different form of RAW file, so it's a question of what formats are supported on v6 of iPhoto (a few) on 10.3 (very few).

Updated to iOS 8.1- sent emails are not being received

I updated to iOS 8.1 and have now found that when I send emails from my iPhone (a 5S), the only place they arrive is on that same iPhone. I run Yosemite on my Mac, and the emails I send from the iPhone don't arrive, and I send them to others with different systems and they don't get them either.
I noticed that there were many people who reported this back when they updated to iOS 7, although I never had that problem. Nor did I have it under iOS 8 until I did the 8.1 update.

No longer a problem. The emails I sent finally showed up.

Emails sent from iPhone not being received

I've noticed this happening over the past week or so... Anytime I initiate a new email thread from my Gmail account on my iPhone, the recipient isn't getting it. If I go into Gmail via the web I'll see the email in my Sent Items, but it never arrives. In one instance, I got a bounceback message from the recipient's server, but in the others I haven't gotten anything back. This has happened to at least 5 different email addresses, all with different providers, that I've tried to send to, and needless to say I am sure that all of these addresses are indeed valid recipients.
I'm already running iPhone OS 3.1...

If you see it in the gmail sent box on the web, then it was sent.
It sounds like something you need to talk with google about.

Emails being sent not being received

i have been receiving emails from outside bt ok,
however im sending emails and its saying email been sent but they not getting through to receiptant,
they all been sent as shown in sent folder.
daughter sent me email she with bt and that hasnt been recived yet.
its driving me mad, emails from outside bt seem to receive ok, But i cant reply to them.
think im on the bt yahoo mail.

Same problem. Have deleted account and reset using BT settings for both IMAP and POP and although the e-mail is sent it is not being received. Have tried sending to numerous different e-mail addresses but none are received.
There was another thread with the same problem that is marked as solved but the details of how this was achieved were unknown and not posted.
Have even reset the BT home hub but not made any difference.
To add to the misery, e-mail from my iphone is now not being sent saying the password is incorrect. Nothing has changed since earlier today when the e-mail was working. Have tried reentering the passwords manually but no luck.
If I use webmail it all works.
Started yesterday so although I am now receiving mails, I cannot now send any e-mail unless I use webmail.

Samsung note II, known issue of aol mail not being received on phone

I spent hours on the phone with Customer Service this past Wednesday & Thursday because my aol mail is not being received on my new phone. I just did some research online, and found out this has been an issue with AOL and Verizon since December 2012. The Customer Service rep told me this just happened the past week! What a bold faced lie!
I purchased this phone on or about July 3, and the AOL mail was working fine until this past Wednesday.
This is a know issue, and yet the lie right to your face about it.
I had a C/S rep tell me he would call me back later in the day, before he left work. I told him, I have heard that before. Oh, no, I will call you. Of course he didn't call. Your C/S reps think they can say whatever they want, but the calls have been monitored or tracked someway by your computer system.
I see many others have the same problem with the Samsung Note II and their email accounts.
Since December this has been going on, don't you think it's time you fixed the problem?
Two years ago, when I spent $200 on a phone, I said never again. But yet I wanted a 5.5" screen so I paid up! Never again!

I FINALLY spoke to someone today who was able to solve my problem so far.
In the PLAY STORE....look for K9 email app.....and download that...put in your AOL email address and password. You should now be able to receive your aol email on your phone.
It seems he has a Note II also, and had the same problem.
You would think that MANAGEMENT would tell all their C/S reps how to solve the problem. I guess they would rather lose a customer who has been with them for 10 yrs.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.
Both these situations have cropped up on my MacBook Pro since the last update.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
Bob

The 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.
I wish I had more
