Strange sending errors with Mail 2.1.3

Some emails are being returned.
On a test email to myself sent to [email protected]
it is returned stating that "me"@abc.com is invalid
Note, that ampersands are being set or appear to be being set on each side of the prefix before the at sign.
These have so far occured when sending emails through my compuserve (i.e. aol) account. Not all emails are affected though.
Any clues please?

None of the affected addresses are in the address book.
In the example you gave, it was your eMail addy, but it returns qoutes sometimes on other "To:" addies also?
Found this that explains why sometimes the 1st part could be enclosed in quote marks...

I Mail I'd also check the Previous Recipients window for any possible anomalies in spelling, spaces, etc..

Unable to send pictures with mail from iPhoto

Since yesterday i cannot use iPhoto to send pictures with mail, it just does not open a new mesage in mail. can you help me please? have done cleaning tasks and repeired permissions already. thank you.

Does anything happen?
Have you deleted the iPhoto Preference file - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help

Getting: Unable to send attachment with Mail Drop

Mail Drop is not working for me, I always get error message while trying to send.
Here is what happens:
-I compose a message that includes a large attachment
-I click send
-I get the message "Unable to send attachment with Mail Drop" for a few seconds
-My message is not sent and it goes into the Outbox folder.
Configuration:
OS X 10.10 Yosemite
Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts -> Advanced. The option "Send large attachments with Mail Drop" is selected.

I had the exact same problem. I finally figured out what was wrong. I believe you must have iCloud Drive turned on in System Preferences AND you also must allow mail to store document in iCloud Drive which you can check by clicking the "Options..." button in the preference pane of iCloud Drive. As you can see below.

I'm not able to send emails with mail.ru. Receiving and reading is not a problem. When I create a email with mail.ru its not possible to send it although its stored in my mail.ru account as "still to be send". What can it be??

I'm not able to send emails with mail.ru. Receiving is not a problem. Creating a mail is also not a problem and the mail will be stored at mail.ru as still to be send, only problem is its not possible to send. I noticed the buttons for sending change colour when used but they don't perform. What it is?

Don't know what changed, but all of a sudden able to send emails by mail.ru ...... sorry for bothering.

I can't send messages with mail 6.0 of mountain lion, because I can't desactivate the option SSL (Secure sockets Layers); it is locked

Hi, i am having the same problem. this is what i have noticed.
I have 2 x imac's and 2 x macbook air's
i upgraded the 2 macbook air's and 1 of the imac's to Mountain Lion, all these have problems acessing sites that require you to login .
the one remaining imac is still running lion and works perfect.
i am using a dlink router with DD-WRT firmware, i tested teathering from my iphone and i can log into websites fine using the newly upgraded mac's.
It's not a wireless issue as my imac is using an ethernet connection.
is there a compatibility issue with some routers.

TS3276 I can send emails with Mail but can no longer receive them. Yet I haven't altered anything. How do I solve this problem. Thanks

Who is your email provider? Have you set up your account manually or was it set up automatically?

Unable to send mp3 with mail attachment. Zip the file doesn't work same

Tried to send an mp3 file several times and kept getting this message. The file was only 11 mg.
Unable to send with mail attachment.
Your message couldn't be sent because a server error occurred. To send this message,please delete the current attachment,then re-attach.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Toad replyed try zip file (compress) I did and still got the same message

Many mail servers cap their message sending or receiving at 4MB. If you are sending your own work that you want distributed by someone else, check with your internet provider if they can temporarily raise that restriction and the recipient's mail server can temporarily raise those restrictions. Better would be for both of you to be able to access a webhosting site to share the material and use some FTP programs to send the file to each other. If it is an MPEG-3 of a commercial CD's music, we can't help you as such distribution is illegal.

I can't send attachments with MAIL

Please help me. Since I have installed Leopard, I have problems to send attachments by mail. People to whom I send, they don't receive them.
Does anybody have any idea about to solve this trouble?
Andrea from Italy

so you look in your Sent folder and the email with attachment is shown as sent, and you do not receive an error message on your computer.
then i would say it is purely a recipient error, and i am not sure how we can help on these pages not knowing what system they use or if on the web. do you have a friend to whom you can send an attachment that also uses a mac by any chance? does he/she receive the attachment fine, or no attachment either?
hope this helps

Occasional trouble sending emails with Mail

When I try to send emails through Mail, about 1 in 5 messages seems to have trouble sending. What happens is, I click send, the sending icon has a little activity sign for way longer than it takes to normally send an email, and ultimately a few minutes later I get this error message:
"Cannot send message using the server
smtpout:secureserver.net:(myid@mydomainname).com
The connection to the server “smtpout.secureserver.net” on port 80 timed out.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
Sending from: me <(myid@mydomainname).com>"
Normally I then click "edit message" and then try sending, and it usually goes through fine. This started about a year ago, and I have just been dealing with it, but now I'm realizing that the problem may result in multiple versions of the same email being sent, so I'd like to get it solved!
It seems to happen with yahoo and comcast, etc., emails on the receiving end.

this always happens on my desktop iMac (the usual computer I use), which is connected to the internet via my Airport/ wirelessly. My ISP hasn't changed, and I haven't heard from them about any issues... and I don't seem to have trouble connecting to the internet otherwise - it's just when sending through Mail, and just with certain addresses (as far as I can tell).
For example, occasionally I'll send an email through my webmail (same email address, same ISP, same computer, but via the webmail site on my internet browser), and I've never had trouble with the outgoing mail there. If I use my husband's Windows-based laptops or PC (on the same ISP, same cable modem, connected either wirelessly or wired) and do webmail, no problem there either
This leads me to believe that it's the way that Mail is trying to send, trying to connect to the outgoing server or something? Especially because the message apparently IS sending - maybe Mail is just not getting confirmation back from the recipient's server? I can't rely on the message having gone through, but it seems most recipients are ultimately receiving the message twice - when it comes back to me with an error, and again when I successfully send.
Can I try reconfiguring my outgoing message Mail settings? I don't know what other settings to try...

Trouble sending attachments with Mail 7.0

I just upgraded to Mavericks and I just started using Mail 7.0 to manage my email (switching from Outlook 2011 for Mac). I'm using an early 2008 Mac Pro. I'm having trouble sending emails with attachments through Mail 7.0. Any attachment regardless of file type or size doesn't go through on the first try. I compose my email, hit send and then after sitting in the outbox for a minute or two I get this error message...
I then click on "Try With Selected Server" and sometimes it will send after that and sometimes it won't. File size doesn't seem to matter. I switch back to Outlook and all attachments send just fine. Outlook has its own bugs (that's why I'm trying to switch to Mail) so I'm trying to make Mail my email app.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info. NOTE: I'm not an IT person so please try to dumb down your answers to a first grade level.

I am also having the exact same issue only with exchange emails that have attachments... funny thing is the problem only persistis on my MacBook not on my Imac. Both running Mavericks, set up identically and both totally up to date. I will on occacsion get the can't send mail error on the imac but after I click try again it goes through... on the MacBook I'm not so lucky and end up having to email people dropbox links to every darn file I want to send from my laptop. Talk about a pain in the butt. Apple please address and fix.
btw the unchecking auto discovery trick didn't make any difference for me
thanks for bringin this up

How do I use my iPhone's hot spot to send email with Mail ?

Hi,
My land line is dead ... so no phone nor internet at home. But I can use my iPhone'hot spot to get on the web from my iMac. Great ... it works !
Oups ! I cannot send email from my computer using my iPhone's hot spot with Mail.
How do I do that ?
Regards.
Robert Lespérance

Hi Templeton Peck,
Thanks for droping in my thread ...
Doesn't the fact that I can surf the web with my iPhone's hot spot and that I cannot use Mail normally has I normally do give you a clue what the problem could be ?
What other information can I give you other than normally I can surf and send email with my regular ISP. Now that my ISP is dead I am using my iPhone's hotspot to surf the web awaiting that my ISP's connoection returns. Surfing is OK but I cannot send emails with through Mail.
When I want to send an email from my computer, I get a message asking me to select the the SMTP server. Then I select my usual ISP server, but the message comes back telling me it does not work.
Is there any other configuration to do ?

Cannot send Email with Mail since updated to 10.7.2, they stay in my Send Box...

Since I updated, I cannot send Email through Mail, it works with Thunderbird though.

Just FYI, I've had the same problem for months now. I have been accessing my hotmail via the web, but decided to try the OS X Mail app. I could get emails into the account with no problem but couldn't send. I read all the blog and support entries and have tried everything they recommended, like changing my computer name to one word, without success. Then last night, it just so happened that my broadband provider had to change out my wireless modem. As soon as he plugged in the new one, some emails that had been in my outbasket for a month went through instantly and all of a sudden my Mail, both incoming and outgoing now work. So I think people need to look at their router settings for the a solution to the problem.

I have a MacBook Air, OS 10.8.5 I am having trouble sending attachments with Mail. Even small (130K) files don't go. It tries to send then gives up. What can I do to fix this?

I am having trouble send messages with attachments in Mail. Even small attachments (130K) Mail tries to send, then gives up and the message sits in my out box. How can I fix this?

1. You need an external DVD drive.
2. There are no Mac OS X applications or other software in the iTunes App Store.

The server probably wants you to use the STARTTLS command before you authenticate.
See the com.sun.mail.smtp package javadocs for the property to set to enable that.

Disk I/O errors with Mail only

For the past few days, I have noticed Mail was running slowly - especially when starting. Would take forever to start pulling in messages. I looked for solutions and disabled non-essential accounts. Then I took all 5 email accounts offline. Still would get hangs and even beachballs today.
I opened console and found that I was getting a LOT of disk1s2 I/O errors whenever Mail was opened. The errors would continue until it was closed.
Note: This is on a mid-2011 iMac. Disk1s2 is the internal hard drive. I now boot off an SSD thunderbolt. The internal holds all data; applications live on the SSD.
I restarted the computer. Then opened console and waited. No i/o errors. I opened every other program in my dock and got one i/o error when Carbon Copy Cloner was first opened. I closed everything and then opened Mail. It hung as usual and the I/O errors started coming. I eneded up with 40 I/O errors in the 10 minutes that Mail was opened and (eventually) closed. This was with all accounts set to offline.
I'm stumped. Any thoughts???
Thanks
