Why does my email go to outbox instead of sending it?

When I send an email it goes to the outbox and will not let me send it.

You are not the only one with Gmail problems with Mavericks and I have looked at other peoples post and there does not seem to be one off fix.
Apple provided an update to Mavericks that partly fixed some problems with Gmail, this update was a few of weeks ago, did you install that update? This update was provided in December 2013, you can either check with the App store for any updates ot check the OS X version with the About Menu icon in the Apple logo, top left of the menu bar. The update is 10.9.1
This link from Apple will tell you more about it if it is not installed.

Other than that I use Gmail with Apple mail program and have not had any problems.
If the above is of no help, lets see if others have a better idea.

  • In mail, why does entire email address show up instead of just person's name

    When I address most emails (to persons who are in my contacts), only their names show up in the "To:" window. But with certain people, their name plus their <full email address> all show up in the window.
    I've tried re-entering their names in my contacts. I've tried deleting these names-with-full-email-addresses from the Previous Recipients list. No matter what I do, their name fills in as "First Name Last Name <full email address>" in the "To:" window. I also mail to other clients at the same company and their names just show up as names only -- normal.
    Any idea why this is happening, and how I can make it stop?

    It's fixed. Not sure why. Maybe one of the things I tried just needed time to take effect. Suddenly, it's working.

  • Why does the email button attach xml instead of pdf?

    Sorry, it's probably a stupid question, but I can't figure it out! Thanks a million!

    Hi Diana. You can use the Button object (not a Submit button) and modify it to submit the PDF version of your document.
    After you've placed a button in your layout;
    1) click on the Object tab
    2) Select "Submit" as your Control Type
    when you've done this, a "Submit" tab will appear
    3) Click on the "Submit" tab
    4) Change the "Submit Format" to "PDF"
    5) Add the e-mail address in the "Submit to URL" field (as below);

  • When I try to send a photo, why does it go into my outbox?

    When I try to send a photo, why does it go into my outbox?

    assuming you mean send a photo by email.
    a photo can be quite large and contain a lot of data. depending on your connection it can sometimes take a while to send. As long as a red exclamation doesn't appear it will send. the outbox indicates mail going out, hence outbox.

  • Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example signatures tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example: signatures at the bottom of the mail tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    It worked for me. I took a picture with the iPhone's camera. Then opened the Photos app and selected the picture, and emailed it from one of my IMAP accounts to my gmail (also IMAP) account. When it showed up in the gmail inbox (on my iPhone), I forwarded it to my yahoo mail account (choosing the "inlcude attachments" option). When that showed up on my iPhone's yahoo inbox, the picture was there just as it should be.
    So I guess the next thing would be to try it with non-iPhone pictures to see if it is a problem with image size or something. I have some 6-megapixel images in iPhoto I can try (taken as RAW/DEC format pictures with my dSLR).
    Just tried it sending a Photo from my computer's iPhoto library - picture is 728KB, 2272x1704 jpeg. I emailed it to my gmail account, and it showed up on the iPhone just fine. Then I forwarded that to my yahoo account and again, it showed up just fine on both the iPhone and reading my yahoo mail via the web page.
    Don't know what to say - I don't mean this to be just another "works for me" post. I was hoping to see something maybe depending on the size and origin of the picture.
    By the way, my 3GS shipped with 3.0.1 on it, and I've updated it via iTunes normally to 3.1.1 and currently 3.1.2. Sorry I don't have anything constructive to add.

  • Why does my email name go out as Administrtor?

    Why does my email name go out as Administrtor?

    Hello bqster,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I would recommend going here:
    Choose Mail > Preferences, click Accounts, and then select the ... account.
    From: Mail (Mountain Lion): If a Mail account becomes inactive
              http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11804?viewlocale=en_US
    When you click the account there will be a Full Name field, and that is where you would change the name that gets sent with your emails.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list

    Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list

    Hi Helen
    I think (from the other forum you posted to previously) that you are asking how to send email to a group in your address book, or other group of email addresses? You will need a third party app to do this, a number of which are available from the App Store.
    Our MailShot Pro app is unique, as it can turn addressbook groups into special contacts that you can use from any Mail-compatible app on your iPad (Such as Mail, Photos, Maps etc.) as though the ability to send to groups were built into your device.
    You can find MailShot Pro here on the App Store

    why does my email account keep telling me my username or password is incorrect when it isn't?

    Sky email is provided by Google now. Have you tried logging in via webmail on a desktop computer? Occasionally Google asks you to verify your account by entering a CAPTCHA which can't be done in a dedicated email client.
    If that doesn't help, try removing and then re-setting up the account, following the directions here:

  • Why does my emails keep downloading after deleting them?

    Why does my emails keep downloading after deleting them?

    It sounds like you may be "synced" to an IMAP email server with your ISP.  You would need to go into Mail>Preferences and set the messages to be removed from the IMAP server after some period of time so they don't redownload to your computer.  That's one possiblility.  Another is if you are synced with iCloud, then the mail is stored on your iCloud server backup and will redownload until you remove it.
    Hope this helps
