Why can't I reply to emails?

I get emails (also junk mail!!) on my iPhone. When I try to reply or send an email it says it can't go through.
What's up with that??
Thanks

What's likely up is that your SMTP (sending) server either isn't configured properly in the email account settings, or doesn't accept emails sent to it over the cell network. Since you provided no useful info such as the exact error message, your email provider and account settings, you can't get much specific advice how to fix it.
One thing to try is to use the AT&T SMTP server:
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > (your account) > SMTP > Primary Server > OFF; Other SMTP Servers > AT&T SMTP Server > ON

What happens when you try to reply... Do you get an error message, is there no send button, does a symbol appear?

Why can't I reply to email on my Curve ?

I can send and forward but not reply.
I can't find any setting that would cause this.
Any help ?

Look at the header of one of the emails to which you can not reply, What is the "received using" at the top... it is "unknown"?

Why can't I reply to emails since ios5 update?

Since I updated to ios 5 I can't reply to mail. I can receive and send mail and type a reply but as I press send the app crashes and returns to the home screen.

This may be a network issue in which case you can go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Other than that it may be an issue with the mail server, so I would try deleting the account from Mail and re-adding it. If neither works, you may have to do a restore.

You are not doing anything wrong. Unfortunately, that's just the way that the built in mail app works. It really is a basic no frills mail app with not much to offer compared to other apps.
There are third party apps that let you create groups and email to those groups. I don't use either of these, but I've seen them recommended here in the past.

Why can't I text or email photos

Why can't I text or email photos? It doesn't indicate that it wasn't sent, but I know they're not being received. Thanks!

You need to discuss the problem with your carrier. If the phone indicates it was sent, it's getting an aknowledgement from your carrier that they received it. From that point on, it can only be your carrier, the receiving carrier or the interchange between the two that's the problem.
Does this happen with everyone you try to text, or just some people? You can set up a free google voice account and try texting to/from that.

Why can't i put my emails into folders

why can't i put my emails into folders

You must have an IMAP email accounts in order to create additional folders in the mail app on the iPad. There is now way to create folders locally like you can on a computer if you are using a POP email account.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

On an iMac why can't you delete an email without opening it?

Why can't I delete an email without opening it first? Is this not a security risk as I have always been advised that, if I don't know who the email is from, I should delete it so as to avoid opening any suspect attachments that open immediately.
This is my first Mac so could it be that I have not realised how to do this?
My wife can do this on her iPad.

A couple of points:
1. Your concern is not really an issue with macs. More of a PC thing. "Suspect attachments" are extremely, extremely rare for a mac. I mean, like one since 1984, when I bought my first mac. The reason is that Apple seems to be on top of things and keeps updating mac software to protect your mac from this sort of thing. Just keep up with the system updates and you won't have a problem. Microsoft, on the other hand, makes tons of security holes in their software because of their mindset, i.e., that the consumer is a moron and the enemy.
2. In my mail.app, there are three columns in the message viewer, the first which lists the mailboxes, the second which lists the emails, and the third which is a preview window. I can select an email in the second column and delete it without opening it, so I don't see what the problem is that you're having.

Why can't I copy an email to pages and have it wrap to the page?

Why can't I copy an email to pages and have it wrap to the page margins?

Just do a Remove All.
I would first find two consecutive EOL characters and replace with an extra line feed or a visible marker like an ampersand. Then Remove All EOL characters. Then replace all the all the ampersands with a CR/LF. It's pretty quick. A lot quicker than trying to remove 500 EOL characters one at a time.
Or, ask the sender to create the document in a word processor, zip it, then send it to you.

To each his own. I own Outlook, but I avoid using it like the plague. The only Mac mail software I have liked better than Apple's Mail was Qualcomm's Eudora, which is no longer updated or even available, won't run without Rosetta, and unfortunately never quite got the hang of IMAP.
Check out this post regarding this user's continuing use of Eudora on his Lion MacBook:
Shield Eudora from Lion's Claws
A thousand thanks and kudos to Michael for this fabulously excellent thread!
Eudora's now happy in her new Snow Leopard VM home on my Lion ModBook!
Appears essential to keep resource-forked data off Lion disk:
First attempt with Eudora on SL VM was sharing data on Lion disk. Error messages on open like "can't find Table of Contents" suggest Lion ate resource forks crucial to Eudora.
Found success by transferring data from SL Mac to thumb drive, then mounted drive in SL VM so Lion couldn't touch.
While Michael warns against storing data in VM, appears there's no choice with Eudora. At least She's enthroned on a mirrored RAID.
There is Nothing like Eudora! (to tune of "There is Nothing Like a Dame" from South Pacific -- Oops! my gray hair is showing!)
(It's amazing Parallels can force Lion to store taboo resource forks. Thank God for code warriors!)
