SMS Messages--can send but not receive--why?

I can send SMS messages from my desktop or laptop through the Skype webpage, but if someone tries to respond, they get an error message that says, "failed message". Why can I not receive SMS messages back to my Skype account online?

OK, so who is paying for it?
I would make sure that you have the personal BIS account enabled on your carrier account.

I have an iphone6. And out of the blue my group messages aren't working. I can send but not receiving any back.

I have an iphone6. And out of the blue my group messages aren't working. I can send but not receiving any back. Any ideas??? I already reset my phone twice.

You should check that your settings (both directions) match this:
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 993
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
Note: If you receive errors using SSL, try using TLS instead.
Your signature says you have 10.6.8 - is this correct? If you migrated from MobileMe using this your mail settings won't be correct and you will need to follow this procedure to re-enter them:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

E71 Imap, can send but not receive

HI all
I received my E71 about a week ago and having major problems configuring it with my work email.
Its an IMAP mail. I can send fine but on most occasions cannot receive. Occasionally it downloads some mails but only twice in the last week. I think this shows the settings are correct.
Have tried to sign up with Nokia mail but get the following error message:
'Unable to connect with the information provided. Please try again.'
My colleagues in the UK use Blackberrys fine and have spoken with IT and they cannot think of any reason why this is happening. I have deleted the mailbox and set it up again many times but still can send but not receive...
Very grateful for any advice as really happy with the phone other than this which is the main reason why I bought it.

Hi Anne,
Is this IMAP or POP account?
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.

Upgraded to Tiger; Mail can Send, but not receive... help!

Hi there,
I've come across lots of issues people have had importing all their mailboxes when they've upgraded from Panther to Tiger, but my wife's problem is different - - Mail can Send, but not receive. 'Get Mail' hasn't worked since the upgrade. I've been on the phone with my POP server provider, and all my Mail Account settings are correct. I can send mail, as I say, and sure enough, there it is in her Hotmail web page, along with all the other messages people have sent her in the last two weeks...
So why can't Mail 'get' these messages, if all the settings are correct?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Malcolm

You’re welcome.
If you deleted a POP account, then all the messages stored in that account’s mailboxes has certainly been wiped out, not just moved somewhere, and you were warned that this would happen by the following alert:
Remove Account
Are you sure you want to remove the <AccountType> account "<AccountName>"?
This will permanently delete the account setup information, mailboxes, and messages from your computer. Messages stored on the mail server will not be affected.
To prevent that from happening, you should have moved those messages to custom “On My Mac” mailboxes instead of leaving them in the account’s mailboxes. Actually, using Inbox and Sent for archiving purposes is a bad idea regardless.
If the messages are not on the server and you don’t have a backup (which you should have made before doing something like that), you may try to salvage as many deleted *.emlx files as possible with a data recovery tool such as Data Rescue II, TechTool Pro, or FileSalvage (the files to be recovered would be different in the case of Mail 1.x). Of these, the only one I know for sure that can currently recover deleted *.emlx files is FileSalvage. Stop using your computer right now if you want to try that, as anything you do with the computer may cause the deleted files to be overwritten.

Using osx 10.7.5 can send but not receive emails. Mail server support rep tried everything

Using iMac with OSX 10.7.5. Can send but not receive emails. No problem with internet account. Server rep tried everything and suggested perhaps a corrupted file in the op syst. Any ideas?

You may have a corrupt preference. Mail - Preferences - Accounts - click the offending account and re-enter all prefereneces. Also you can use Apple's OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages located at:

I can send but not receive email

Hello All. I know this is a highly posted topic but I cannot find a solution. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Basic Problem- I can send but not receive email.
My ISP is. Yahoo SBC Global
I have a 3rd party email provider: 1and1.com
I have set my preferences according to the specifications of 1and1.com
The error I get is this: The server error encountered was: The attempt to read data from the server "pop.1and.com" failed.
I have a Macbook Pro, running 10.4.9. My account with the 3rd party email provider is new and only has 1 or two emails in the account. I know this because I can log on via the internet and use their website to check the emails in the inbox. So the "email" address is working. I just can't get it to forward to my laptop.
I'm wondering if it has something to do with port 110 being blocked by my ISP. But I really don't think they are blocking that port. Due to the fact that my previous computer was a dell, and I used a similar 3rd party provider to email, the account used port 110 and things worked fine.
Thanks to all.

Ok. I've got it working.
All I did was delete my account information from the preferences. Before, I was editing it.
I entered a completely new POP account and it started working. I have a hard time believing that I entered information incorrectly prior to this because I checked it, rechecked it had a friend check it and it all looked OK. I was copy and pasting information anyway.
However, once I deleted and re- entered a brand new account, it worked fine.
Ernie, thanks for replying to my emails! I appreciate it.

Can send but not receive email

I have contacted my ISP and confirmed my password and settings. I can log on and send but not receive. The emails are on the server. This problem started after I installed the latest apple security update. The isp tech felt everything was ok there and that the problem was due to the security update blocking incoming mail.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks, Dave!
I had the same problem. Could send but not receive, on three email accounts all of which were on the same server. The other four accounts on two different serves worked fine. This was a sudden change and I had not changed any mail prefs for several weeks or anything on the server end in months. I spent 3.5 hours on this this evening, excahnging emails with customer suppert at the server (using the other accounts of course), going through the complicated webstie to check the server configuration, checking the prefs in mail over and over and over, setting up the email on another computer to discover it worked, throwing everything realted to these three accounts out of keychain thinking maybe it had saved an old password.
Came in here to post a plea for help and read your message. The offline bits were set. And the list of accounts under the IN heading had been collapsed (I generally have it open, don't know how it was collapsed) so that I couldn't see the obvious offline indicator. !!!
Thanks again! Where were you 3.5 hours ago?

Nokia C7-00: Can send, but not receive pictures

Hello,
I'm unable to receive picture messages on my C7-00 smart phone. I can send pictures without problems but not receive. Is it possible to disable receiving pictures? If so how do I enable it?
Thank you.

Its weird that you are able to send pics.. ( as picture message in ur C7 00) .. Update ur phone's software.
And for picture message,to read, just touch on the attachment icon in the conversation,u ll b able to see.
Do check ur multimedia message reception settings..
For receiving through Bluetooth, check ur Bluetooth settings (visibility,pairing etc.. ) ,
BTW, update ur phone's OS ..

Office 2008: Entourage can send but not receive email

Purchased Macbook Air and wirelessly loaded Office 2004 from my other Macbook Pro. One week later, I updated to Office 2008 for Mac. Two months later, Entourage became corrupted: can only Send email, but not receive any; Calendar and other functions continue to sync with no problem. Also, email sent to Trash doesn't empty. Original disc unavailable at present; potential conflict with Office 2004?

Glennbradley,
It's possible that some data in the Microsoft User Data folder (located in your documents folder) has gotten a bit "wonky."
My understanding of the '08 installer is that it purposely runs a script at the conclusion of the installation to removal '04 if it was found on your system. Was that not the case? Do you still have a working '04 set of applications?
Also, the fact that it did work (and doesn't now) tells me that somehow your profile or the Entourage database has become corrupted or unstable for various reasons. Have you followed the support documentation on repairing your Entourage profile? What sort of success/failure has that generated?

New Deployment: Outlook Can Send but not Receiving Messages

We are in the process of setting up/testing a new installation of Exch 2013 for the first time. We created a Send Connector (Used MX records option) and left Receive connectors as is. We set up a test user in AD, then created mailbox with valid email
address. We are using Outlook 2010 (on Windows7) to connect to Exchange, which was successful (use the automatic , not manual configure option).
From Outlook, we can send an email to external address successfully. We cannot receive an email. We check the webmail account provided by our email host and the email is in the account.
Note, with this same email host, we used the POP connector in EXCH2003 to get our email. We wanted to use SMTP to receive email in Exchange 2013. Could this be an issue at our email host (could they require POP connection) OR is there a service will
need to enable/add in EXCH and if so where is it?
Also, we used the Microsoft Connectivity Analyzer for this test user and both SMTP Inbound and SMTP Outbound passed.
One thing we just noticed is that the mailbox for the testuser must contain a few messages because of its usage report..Outlook just can't pick them up maybe...How can we tell if the mailbox has our test emails in it?
Another odd thing is that within Outlook, under Mailbox Cleanup, it shows that the Inbox should has a size of 12KB, which would be about the size of our test messages to it:
Since our posting..we have looked at the mailbox using OWA and the Inbox has nothing in it there either. We tested internal email between this test user and the Administrator account and we can send and receive into the Inbox, both in OWA and Outlook, just
fine...We did a search on the mailbox using the EAC and it did not find anything.

We have MX records pointing to our domain that we use for email, but I do not think to our Exch2013 Server. We use them now with Exchange 2003. When I do NSLookup for our domain name it returns (2) MX records from our email host that I would expect,
as they have always been there since the exch2003 box.
NSLookup does not return mail.domainname.com on the list of MX records. If I ping mail.domainname.com, it returns the public static IP address of our exchange server given to us by our ISP...but is that because I added that A Record today?
I do not understand your statement... "To receive mail you must post your domain in the form of an MX record". Maybe there is something I need to add at my web host (Network Solutions)?? Do I manually add a MX record called mail.domainname.com?
Like here circled in red (I did not add it yet): If I need to do this, I am unsure of the priority number? I don't want to interfere with our EXCH 2003 server while doing this testing.

User can send but not receive emails

Hello!
So I've just set up a band new server from scratch and am having trouble getting the email service to work 100%.
My dns is all correct, forward and reverse. The output of a changeip -checkhostname command is perfect. My domain name and its public ip address both point to each other fine and my A, MX and CNAME records have all been set at the domain vendor to point to my particular server.
I've made one user in WGM and that user can send emails no problem. But when I try to send an email back (or reply to the original message), this is the error I receive in the bounce message:
<[email protected]>: Host or domain name not found. Name service error
for name=server.jinniferules.com type=A: Host not found
Reporting-MTA: dns; server.example.com
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: 75E7A223CE8

Action: failed
Status: 5.4.4
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Host or domain name not found. Name service error
for name=server.jinniferules.com type=A: Host not found
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

Solved my own problem: what was needed was to add a "server" entry to the A-records list that pointed to the IP.
Sheesh! Haha.
