Server does not recognize email address

I have both an iphone and an ipad until today I was able to send emails from both units using my household internet connection, today when I try to send an email from my ipad I get a pop-up stating server does not recognize the email address, but I can send emails from my iphone using the same internet connection. When I checked the settings both units have the same. Two days ago both units were updated.

Both devices are using the Home Network. My ISP is  Shaw in Canada. and they will only accept sent email from their subscriber households, for example if I try to send an email from my iphone via 3g it will not be recognized, but will be ok if sent using wi fi at home. I was able to send email prior to doing the last update.

  • IPad won't send emails but iPhone does. iPad message says server does not recognise email address resetting account makes no difference what else can I try?,

    My iPad won't send emails despite identical settings with iPhone which does work. " server does not recognise email address" resetting account fails to solve issue. What else can I try?

    Have you checked ALL the settings including the port assignments? Easiest way to get those back to is to delete the email account from the iPad then redo the email account. Usually the ISP providing the email account will have instructions on their web site.

  • After upgrading to Yosemite, Thunderbird does not recognize email addresses: "syntax error" in recipient address. Fix?

    After upgrading to IOS Yosemite, Thunderbird will no longer send emails to the contacts in my history file that drops down when I "write" a new message. I continue to get a return response that there is a syntax error in the address field of the message although I have tried both my stored emails and manually typed email addresses. What has been changed and how do I recover the use of Thunderbird's great program?
    By the way, how do I eliminate out of date email addresses from popping up and populating email responses rather than the most current ones that are in my contacts? I now have to type each one in separately as the default options that come up are many out of date.
    Thanks much for your great work. Mozilla and Firefox are the best.

    Did you find a solution to this issue?  My mail server is doing the same thing.  I've tried six migrations now, and have a couple of tickets open, but they all have issues.  I have worked around all of them except the mail server problem.
    I did some more digging; the problem appears to be that on a migrated server, it leaves all of your mail store in the old location, doesn't move it, and then doesn't appear to upgrade spam-assassin properly.  The net effect is that the mail server gets the SMTP communication, tries to pass the message into spam assassin, and then it goes south.
    I see errors like this littered in the logs:
    Jul 31 13:53:10 mail org.amavis.amavisd[5927]: bayes: cannot open bayes databases /var/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_* R/O: tie failed:
    Jul 31 13:53:10 mail org.amavis.amavisd[5927]: bayes: cannot open bayes databases /var/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_* R/O: tie failed: No such file or directory
    Do you see anything similar?

  • Mail does not recognize email address for Address Book marked as "Company"

    I have a bunch of Address Book entries with "Company" checked and no first or last name. After the SL upgrade, entering the name of the company into an email in Mail.app does not result in it recognizing the company as a contact, or using the saved email address. Oddly, if I edit the contact so that it has a first and last name, even if Company remains checked, Mail will come up with the correct address. Any explanation or work around for this?
    I also noticed that all of such contacts, after the SL upgrade, no longer had the Company box checked, resulting in them all being listed as "No Name" -- but I fixed that by rechecking all of the boxes.

    Hi murrxx,
    Based on my experience, it just cannot send to the un-recognized email address. The remaining recipients will recieve the email.
    Please changing to OWA to verify whether all the mails cannot be sent.
    If in OWA, just the un-recognized email address cannot be sent, it should be an issue on the Outlook Client side.
    Please run Outlook under safe mode for testing.
    Also try to re-create new profile to refresh the caches.
    Is there NDR returned back to us when we cannot send emails to all?
    If has, please post the details.
    Please also collect some related event logs for the further troubleshooting.
    Thanks

  • Optimum Online does not recognize email addresses for sending mail

    We just got the new iMac for our family. I decided to junk eudora and use apple's mail client. I have 3 accounts: mine (admin), my wife, my son. My wife and son can both receive mail via Mail but they cannot send. My son gets "This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered. The server "mail.optonline.net" rejected the address "Gregory Sohanchyk" " I reinstalled eudora so my son can send and receive. Queried cablevision but have yet to receive a response. Any one else having problems with other accounts and cablevision and optimum online.

  • I suddenly cannot email photos from iphoto. I get a box that says "server does not recognize username or password". I now have to use regular email and cannot re-size my photos.

    Suddenly I can no longer email photos directly via iphoto mail.  The box comes up that says "server does not recognize username or password".  I used to be able to re-size my photos before sending so that they jpeg or pixels were larger for publishing in newspapers or magazines, but I can no longer do that.  Apple tech support told me to change my iphoto "preferences" to using regular email to send.  But that does not allow me to re-size.  Is anyone else having this problem?  I don't know if there was an update that caused this or what?  Please help.

    The box comes up that says "server does not recognize username or password".
    That error message usually will pop up, when there is a conflict between the "From" setting for the mail account you are sending from and the selected outgoing mail server. Probably the outgoing Mail server is receiving a user name and password it does not understand. When the mail returns unsent, do you see the "Try again" panel with the option to select a different outgoing mail server?
    If you do not see this panel, change the Mail "Preferences > General" to "If Outgoing server is unavailable: Show a list of alternate servers". This way, you will know, which server Mail is trying to send from.
    Have you tried to set "From"  pop-up menu to one of your other email addresses?  If that works, change your settings in Mail to always send from this address. You can set this option in the Mail "Preferences > Composing: Send New Messages from". I have my "Send New Messages from" set to "iCloud". That is working best for me with iPhoto.

    I receive a pop-up from ICal saying the server does not recognize my user name and password for my me.com email address.  This started yesterday and occurs about every 5 minutes or so.  There are no problems with receiving or sending email through Mail.  I did change me email password several days ago but have no problems sending/receiving since then.

    I fixed the problem.  I opened Preferences in ICal and entered my new password.  No more pop-ups

  • Server does not recognize my username/password when trying to email photos

    I am trying to mail photo's from my Iphoto's through my email account.  However each time I try to send the pics I get a message that the server does not recognize my username/password.  I have a password for my Bell sympatico account which is the account I am trying to use, but when I enter that password I get the does not recognize message.  I then tried to use my Apple password and again same message.

    Hi Bob,
    The following is exactly what I do,  I go to IPHOTO and click on the photo I want to send, then I go to the Share menu and insert the email address where I want it sent.  In that message it shows my other account which is my email address that I use all the time for all my correspondance.  So I have that as the address I am sending from
    Then I hit send and a text box comes up saying there is some text related to the photo looks like you could put a description here so I just hit Send anyway.  Then I hit the send key and that is when the message box pops up with my complete email address with ;smtp.me.com" at the end . None of those letters or characters are in my email address.  Any help you can offer I am greatly appreciative!
    Cheers
    Maureen

    What server?  What email are you talking about?  You're not exactly providing a whole lot of details.  I could assume you mean icloud and an icloud address, but no point in wasting time troubleshooting if you mean something else...
    And what's up with the picture?

  • I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

    I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have checked all mail settings for ID and password.

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
    Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems
