Unable to receive email from in iMail

My icloud email account is offline. I am unable to send and receive emails ...
I am using the correct icloud user and password. I am able to log in and use my email from the iCloud site (www.icloud.com)
But not getting email in iMail.
I opened System Preferences and went to Mail and in accounts it ays: The “Incoming Mail Server” field cannot be empty.
However, there is mail.icloud.com typed in except I cannot change it because it is grayed out.
Also I went to the "Mail Connection Doctor" inside iCloud.
There I have two messages. The first one says "Mail was able to connect to the internet."
Below that is another message: next to MobileMe IMAP... it says:Could not connect to this MobileMe IMAP server.
Check your network connection and that you have entered the correct information in the Account Preferences. Also verify
that the server supports SSL. If it does not, deselect the SSL checkmark in the Advanced tab of Account Preferences.
All the network connection information is correct. I am able to connect to the internet. I don't know if the server supports SSL.
But the box is checked and the IMAP Path Prefix box is empty. Port is 993.
Can someone please help figure out why I am not getting my icloud email and how to fix it.
thanks!!

Never Mind!
Problem went away after I restarted the computer

Hi,
One user in our company is trying to send email in different domain but
recipient is unable to receive email from our side. Below mentioned is the NDR report:

The recipient's e-mail system isn't accepting messages now. Please try resending this message later or contact the recipient directly.
The following organization rejected your message: smtp.xxx.net
Kindly guide me how i can diagnose that there is no problem at our side because all other users are sending emails in different domain without any problem.
Thanks & Kind regards,

Mail Can't Receive Email from One ISP

Yesterday morning upon returning to work, my Mail app was unable to receive emails from three accounts that are tied to the same ISP. (Other email accounts not related to this ISP receive mail successfully.) But on these three accounts, the little wheel next to the account name just spins and spins.
When I ran Mail Connection Doctor, I got the following report:
"Could not connect to this POP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, deselect the "Use SSL" checkbox in the advanced tab of Account preferences."
My current settings have worked for years.
Now, when I flipped over to a different User Account on my Mac and recreated the mail account, I was able to successfully download my email. That tells me that my connection to my ISP not being blocked by IT here at work.
I've tried rebuilding the account. I've tried taking it offline and back online again. No success. Any suggestions on where to go from here?

It's a risk if you're using POP3 mail. You can archive mailboxes to another location for safe keeping.
Or, just try adding new versions of the accounts without deleting the old ones (you can have duplicates, name them different so that you can tell them apart). If the new ones work, then you can just drag the mail folders from the old to the new and then delete the old.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Can't send or receive email from one account

Just bought the iPod Touch last week. Set up Hotmail account with no problems. However my MacDialup.com account (used to be dial up, but is DSL now) won't work at all. They aren't set up to use SSL, so I turned that off after the iPod automatically tried it. I tried IMAP and POP, tried changing incoming server port number from defalt 143 to 110, triple checked spelling on every single entry including password. Tried calling my ISP tech support and talked to a tech who owns an iPhone and lives in the bay area, but he couldn't figure it out. I tried deleting the MacDialup account then syncing the Touch to my iTunes on my MacBook Pro (which has no problem sending or receiving email from this same account) and had the email settings imported from the MacBook Pro - still no luck. Tomorrow I'll try bringing both my MacBook Pro and iPod Touch into the Genious Bar. Maybe they can figure it out.

How do I Set up email acc so I can receive emails from another property

I have 2 homes and both have Broadband but with different providers (talktalk and tiscali). I have just move to Apple from Windows. With Mac mail I don't seem to be able to set up an account to read the emails from the property that does not have that provider. So house A has provider A and house B provider B. Windows allowed me at house A to to send and receive emails from provider A and read emails from provider B. At house B I could send and receive B emails and only receive A emails. I want to do the same with my Mac. How do I do this as when I go through the set up accounts process it seems to force me to register both the POP3 and SMTP for A and B and when it cannot find the outgoing server (in this case B when I am at house A). With windows it allowed you to set them both up at both houses because it did not perform a check as you set the accounts up.

I do not understand your problem or your question
In general what I have found is that some (many?) internet providers will not allow you to sent e-mail if you are not on their network but there is no problem receiving e-mail
I have two houses A & B and internet providers A & B but my e-mail provider is a separate company, provider C, I find the following:
I can receive mail from C via POP3 from both houses A & B
In both houses I am unable to sent mail using SMTP using provider C but must use the local internet provider, provider A for house A and provider B
If you have e-mail accounts at both A & B you should be able to set up two accounts, one for provider A and one for provider B - both would use POP3 to receive mail and should work from either house - each would use its own SMTP service - A for house A and B for house B - If you want to send mail from account A in house B you would have to change the outgoing SMTP server while you are there and change it back when you go to house A - same for sending mail from account B while in house A
Maybe this helps - if not try asking again and maybe I'll get it beter next time

Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 - Unable to recieve emails from outside

I'm having problems setting up brand new installation of EXCH 2013 on the VM server.
Infrastructure - main server Windows Server 2012 Standard, a VM server. Domain vwc.local, VM server introduced to domain. EXCH 2013 installed on VM server.
I'm able to send emails outside, but unable to receive ones from outside. Server provider A, MX records point to mail server. The local router redirect SMTP traffic to VM server - all ports.
According to Wireshark the SMTP traffic hits the VM server, but no connection with EXCHG receivers can be established. The external domain name - valleywomenscarepllc.com. Firewall is turned off. The receive connectors are setup to accept anonymous connection,
use all ip addresses associated with the VM server network adapter. Netstat shows that 25 port is available. Connectors are in an valid state by running ECHG commandlets.
I'm running out of ideas. Please suggest an area for research or request additional info to narrow down possible causes.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks to everyone!!!
Turned out that MX record was pointing to mail.valleywomenscarepllc.com. I changed to point to valleywomenscarepllc.com and all immediatelly - external OWA, ECP started working as well outside emailed delivering.
I've been fighting with EXCHG for over month, encountered multiple issues, and finally got it working. Thanks to everyone for suggestions!
Can anyone suggest on mobile dvice access. I setup my iPhone mail to to work with valleywomenscarepllc.com, however I get error that the server cannot be verified. ECP\Mobile access is on, no mobile device policies are in the effect, the autosync is
allowed on the user mailbox level though I get this error. Has anyone ever encountered similar issue?

How to stop receiveing emails from email account?

Hi have a new pearl 8110. I have it thru AT&T. I have it configured thru BES. I receive work emails thru the BES. I was experimenting with the personal email and set it up to receive emails from my personal earthlink email account. I decided I do not like that set up since I am unable to set the BB up so that work and personal emails go to separate folders (the personal ones will go to a separate folder and the general email folder and the work emails go to the general folder only).
At any rate, I want to delete the earthlink email account from the BB. I deleted it from the servicebook, but I still am getting emails?
Any idea how to remedy this so that the earthlink emails stop showing up?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to E-mail Settings icon on your home screen. Login using the user name and password (if passoword used while setting initial setup). Go to Email Accounts under services and hit the delete button under the email ID that you want to delete.

I am unable to delete emails from my orange account and my mail box is now full?

Please help - I am unable to delete emails from my orange email account and as a result my mail box is full and I cannot receive any emails. Whether I try to delete a message either individually or the entire inbox it just says my inbox is full and I need to delete some messages!Thank youSara

What domain is your email addy? Don't think there is much you can do about it. Seen others get in this bind with these small mailboxes. There might be a way round it depending on your domain.

We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is: Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone. Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc. This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...

No longer receiving emails from Thunderbird, but available on Windoes Mail.

Since 5-1-14, I no longer can receive emails from my default account in Thunderbird. I have other computers that use Windows Live Mail that receive the emails, and I can get them on my cell phone. I have checked my settings, and nothing has changed. I recently sent myself an email from another account, and it did not arrive either.

Make sure Thunderbird is allowed by your personal firewall.
