Smtp.mac outgoing 'sends' but never gets to any inboxes

hi,
really having trouble with my .Mac email account.
I have set up my outgoing server in Mail to smtp.mac.com, have my username and password correct, and when I send emails they leave my out box and go to my sent email box. Swoosh sound and all.
HOWEVER. No emails ever reach their destination. I've tested a few different email acocunts......
anyone have any suggesstions?? much thanks
Luke

In the meantime, you can always check your e-mail with another service like http://www.3wmail.com/ or http://www.mail2web.com/
They have their own sendmail servers that are independent of dotMac.

  • Random mail arrival failure. SMTP log reports arrival, user never gets it

    Our 10.5.4 Mail server has become progressively less and less reliable over a period of months. I can reproduce repeatable (but inconsistent) instances of mails sent to us and failing to arrive. The weirdness even extends to emails sent from outside to multiple recipients on our server *in the same email*, and where some of the recipients get it and the others don't (while the non-recipients are randomly receiving other mails OK). Or, an external sender sending an email while I'm on the phone with him, it failing to arrive (and never does), and then a resend half an hour later arrives immediately.
    Needless to say, confidence in our mail server is plummeting.
    The OS-X Server mail log *actually records a mail arrival event* even when the user never gets the email, thus:

    ...and the upstream mail filter (sonar in this case, our virus and spam filter) corroborates that an email arrived as well. But, as I said, the user (me) +never got this email+. Numerous other users report the same experience. Some mails arriving at our mail server simply never get put into inboxes and disappear. Poof.
    The only lead I have is multiple instances of the following message in the console at (roughly) the same time as the mail arrival failure:
    *6/08/08 1:15:00 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (0x11a220.cron[14553]) Could not setup Mach task special port 9: (os/kern) no access.*
    I have taken to rebooting the server twice daily to reduce the frequency of these occurrences. The machine is a G5 XServe hosting 700 accounts in a School.

    In the log example quoted above, ignore all the http:// references. Apple's discussions software is assuming the square brackets in the log mean "insert URL"

  • Messages show sent but never get there

    i have been sending text messages to people without iphones. The message shows as being sent, but never gets to the other phone.
    i also cannot send a photo via text message. but i can send a photo with imessage.
    any ideas why this is?
    i have a new Iphone 4S.

    I have the same problem. I also can't connect to the 3G network from time to time.
    I called the people on my carrier company, and they said that they've talked to Apple about it, and it might be a software problem OR hardware problem.
    But you can try restoring your Network Settings, and see if it works.

  • ITunes is no longer syncing to Apple TV.  I have been using my Apple TV Gen 1 for 3 years with good success.  For reasons unknown to me, iTunes no longer syncs with my Apple TV.  It says/looks like it's syncing but never gets through the first song.

    iTunes sees the Apple TV as a device.  I have it set to manual sync.  I have it set to sync my entire library (I have only 10 CDs in my library).  It says it is syncing.  The wheel goes round and round.  The song it is syncing is listed.  The number of songs that are to by synced is listed.  but it never gets through syncing the song.  I have also set it to sync my photos, but never gets to them.  I seem to have a good wireless connection to my Apple TV.  I am able to talk between my PC and my Apple TV, but now it won't sync.  Note:  I have been playing music on my Apple TV for 3 years with good success (with hundreds of songs), but it no longer seems to work like it did. Thanks.

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

    Hi frank at luray,
    Does this issue occur with any file that you try to send, or do you find that it's specific to one file? If it's a file-specific error, and the file is large, please try sending the file via Adobe SendNow. (You can sign in to Adobe SendNow at Sign in or create an account | Adobe SendNow using the same credentials you use to sign in to Adobe Send.)
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

  • Hi, I requested an unlock from T-mobile UK 1.5M ago, and after a restore I got the message that my iphones carrier setttings were updated successfully, but never get the message that it's unlocked. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi everybody, I need help.
    I requested an unlock from T-mobile UK 1.5M ago, and after the restore I got the message that my iphones carrier setttings were updated successfully, but never get the message that it's unlocked. And it still doesn't support nay other SIM. What am I doing wrong? How do I get it unlocked?
    Thanks in advance for advice

    Did you restore the phone as a new device when you did the restore/unlock, or did you restore it from an existing backup?  I have found that when unlocking an iPhone on the AT&T network, you don't get the message that the unlock was successful if you don't restore as a new device.  The unlock still works, you just don't get the message. Perhaps it is not carrier specific for this behavior.

    Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

    Starts sending but never completes.
    Anyone have any solutions?

    Addendum
    Sending straight from the mail client in any/all of the Yahoo accounts works just fine. The bug just seems to happen when sending links from Safari.

  • Since this upgrade to Firefox 31 on the mac I can no longer get to any HP iLo.

    Since this upgrade to Firefox 31 on the mac I can no longer get to any HP iLo, does anybody know what happened with security certificates with this update? Firefox does not ask to accept the certificate anymore it just says there i an invalid certificate.
    Issuer certificate is invalid. (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)

    Note that if you remove the cert8.db file that this removes all intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored and possible exceptions that you created in the paste as well (see also cert_override.txt).
    You will have to leave libPKIX disabled for now if that makes it possible to access these websites.
    A possibility is to create a button with the PrefBar extension to toggle the security.use_mozillapkix_verification pref when needed, so you can see which sites have issues with PKIX.
    What kind of error message do you get when you visit these websites if there is still one?
    Can you attach a screenshot of the technical details or possibly post a link if the site is publicly accessible (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

  • Mac book pro spinning on startup but never gets to log in screen, repair disk says unable to repair, 2007 computer running Lion, how do I reinstall Lion to the Mac HD, which is the disk that needs repair, but cannot be repaired?

    2007 MacBook Pro, was shut down properly last PM.  Today on startup, spins and spins but cannot get to log in screen.  Held option key with restart and using disk utilities the mac HD showing needs repair, but cannot be repaired.  Says save as many files as possible and reinstall software.  Can't save files, can't get into them.  Willing to reinstall without saving, but can't because only disk option for the reinstall showing is the repair disk, and it is showing as locked.  What to do?

    Sounds like the drive is starting to fail. Have you ever change the drive in that system? If not then it is time to think about doing that, the sooner the better.
