Why can't I send Emails from iPad apps?

When I am using iBooks, or Evernote, or Hootsuite, or just about any application on my iPad that allows me to Email items from within the application, the following happens when I try to send an Email:
1) I click the share button.
2) Choose Emaill
3) Write the Email.
4) Click Send
5) Hear swoosh sound and it appears the Email is sent.
However, the Email is never actually sent.  I've tested this mutiple times to various Email addresses and it just isn't sending the Email.  The only exception is when I send Emails from within the Gmail app, in which case they send fine.
After discovering this I took our my iPhone 5 and tried to do the same from there with the same applications.  I was able to send Emails from within the iPhone applications just fine so this problem is specific to my iPad.
I checked my mail settings and didn't see anything out of order.  As I said, I can successfully send Email from the iPad using the Gmail app or just sending it from within a Chrome window.
Thoughts?

I used to be able to send e-mail from within apps on my iPad. Then all of a sudden, I was unable to do it. I changed none of my settings, and my regular e-mail works just fine.  One day I could e-mail from within apps, and then next I could not.
When I hit the share button within an app, I then select the e-mail button. An e-mail message opens for composition. It has the subject line filled in, but that's all. It will not allow me to enter the address and it contains no message or link. It's just dead. Sometimes I wait for a while to see if anything changes, but it doesn't.
Did apple change something without telling us?

    I live in Australia and when I go overseas I cannot send emails from my ipad2 using wifi. Have no trouble receiving than. HELP PLEASE

    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • Why can't I send mail from IPad while overseas

    Why can't I send mail while overseas? I can receive but al though have placed smtp other server in settings I still cannot send

    To get the right scoop for setting up your outgoing server, google your ISP and the words email settings, and you will likely find a page that will give you the settings.  While you are there, see if there is a restriction on where they will send from.  Some US ISPs simply will not send e mail, if you are put of your home territory.  The. Only way around that is a different mail provider, such as gmail, yahoo or whatever.

  • Why can't I send emails from my Macbook Pro. A window pops up saying this: Sending the message content to the server failed.  The server response was: An error occurred while sending this message using the SMTP server "(null)"

    This is starting to REALLY frustrate me! I used to be able to send emails with attachments perfectly fine with my email, and now all of a sudden it won't work. I work from home, and 8/10 my emails need to have images in them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

    Contact your internet service provider. They can run some tests to verify the cause of the problem. This sounds very much like an ISP issue.

  • Why can't i send mail from ipad?

    I changed my password on my mail account. Now I can receive messages on ipad, but can't send anything because it says settings are incorrect. I have manually changed password. I have deleted iCloud.  Suggstions?

    1.  Make sure you are using the same icloud account for devise and icloud.com
    2.  Go into setting, mail and make sure the password is correct.  I have had that happen and I keep emails on the server and would just delete the account and add it back with the correct password.  See if that works.  This has worked for me in the past.

  • Hotmail Plus why can't I send email from my Touch

    Hi all hope someone can help I have searched but don't seem to be able to find the answer so apologies in advance if this is going over old ground.
    I have a paid for Hotmail account I have set it up using the correct settings confirmed by posts here and by the Hotmail help team.
    I can receive emails no problem but I cannot send, the Hotmail team claim it is an Apple problem. Can anyone help or advise who/where it is I need to contact.
    Cheers

    If you want to be able check your hotmail without using the safari browser you can use the free web app called mail coaster www.mailcoaster.com or you can sign up for izymail which allows you to check your hotmail through a pop serveer. Izymail is free for one month and then about $20/year. I believe you will have fewer problems with izymail than your hotmail plus account.

  • Why can I not send email from my mail on my computer?

    I am receiving mail into my inbox, but cannot send out?  anyone have any ideas?

    FIXED!
    Had the same problem. AOL had been working for months, stopped working for no reason. I checked the settings against aol's instructions and the username was wrong - aol state that the username should not have the @aol.com suffix but it did. The next problem encountered was that the iPad would not let me change the username under outgoing smtp settings. Answer is to do the following:
    Go to settings -> mail ->aol account ->outgoing mail server.
    Turn the primary smtp server off.
    Create a new one for smtp.aol.com with the username without @aol.com at the end and your password.
    The rest of the settings should populate automatically.
    Good luck.

  • HT1430 why can't I send emails via my iphone & ipad?

    Why can't I send emails from my iphone & ipad? Everything worked fine last night, but I updated my software yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've been having the same problem with one of several email accounts on one iPad2 and one iPhone5.  It has been driving me crazy.  I have deleted and reinstalled the email accounts more times than I can count and was ready to throw the device out the window.  However I just found a post from another user who stated that they were able to solve this problem by confirming that the outgoing mail server password was corrected.  Apparently they found that after an upgrade the old password was retained by the server.  I had never checked this because it's a few extra steps to get into the outgoing mail server.  When I did I found that it was incorrect.  Once changed, I was able to send the email again.  Problem solved!  Also I agree that the other user was rude in commenting to you the way that he/she did.  Hope this helps you

  • Can't seem to send email from iPad Air.

    Transferred from iPad to iPad Air   Also upgraded to new iPhone.  No prelims with email with iPhone.  Receive but can't send email from iPad Air.  Says server rejected email.  Same email sent fine from phone.  Suggestions?  Settings are the same on both devices. 

    Found my own answer.  Although I carried over settings from former iPad, the outgoing server was not set up completely.
