Why does sending email from iCloud sometimes translate my .mac address to .me ??

I was upset to see emails I sent while logged into iCloud showing up as from ***@me.com
I have worked for a couple years to expunge any evidence of the me.com address from mylife - now to have iCloud randomly (not every time) translate my sending address to me.com.
I'd like to have a setting to prevent the me.com from ever showing up or being used. It confuses my friends and is NOT MY EMAIL ADDRESS!

It is your email address, .me and .mac are the same thing ie: [email protected] and [email protected] go to the same destination, you. But if you don't want .me make sure when you send that .mac is the selected account.

Cannot send email from icloud account from mac

cannot send email from icloud account from mac running 10.8.2

The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

thank you

I have been having the same problems for the last two days now. It won't let me send, but it will let me save it to my drafts folder. I even tried opening the e-mail form my iPhone 5 and it won't let me send it there either. The last two times i ended up copying the contents from my failed e-mail on my phone and pasting that into a new e-mail and that works. I normally use the icloud web app to reply to e-mails when i'm at work (using win 7) and it is very frustrating.

HT1277 Cannot send email from iCloud Mac Yosamite 10.10.1

I have not been able to send email from my account for weeks, off and on.
I am using Safari Browser
Mac Book Pro 17
Yosamite 10.10.1

You should be able to send email from Safari, however I do wonder why you wish to do this and whether there is something inherently wrong with using your mail app and your iCloud address.

Can't send email from iCloud accounts on Mac

A few hours ago I couldn't login and receive email to my icloud accounts this appears to have been fixed but I still cant send email. I've checked all passwords in preferences.
I can login to icloud via the browser and send email Ok.
I can send email from my iCloud accounts on my iPhone.
But can't send mail using Sparrow or Mac Mail on the desktop.
This all seems to have happened since I installed the latest security update.

Using smtp.mail.me.com - also tried smtp.me.com
SSL yes
port 587
SMTP Authentification Yes
Security SLS/TLS - also tried STARTTLS
User full **@me.com email address - also tried user name without @me.com
I have spoken to apple support this afternoon and we tried the variations shown above.
Support told me to wait for a day and try again!
After the iCloud authentication problem last night I changed all my passwords I wonder if there is an SMTP problem at me.com perhaps not reading the updated passwords?
I'll try and use the old passwords later.

Cannot send emails from iCloud account on any of my devices.

Hi all,
Since last week, my iCloud account has seemed to lose the ability to send emails.
I am using:
10.10.02 Yosemite on Macbook pro 17"
iOS 8.1.3 iPhone 5S
iOS 8.1.2 iPad 3rd Gen
This issue did not happen all at once, it has taken several days for the issue to spread from my iPad, to Mac and now today, my iPhone.
I have removed the iCloud account completely from all devices and deleted the data, reinstalled.
I have found some guidance around Apple Mail and SMPTE settings on the Mac, but to no avail.
I can send emails when using iCloud.com but this is useless when on the go.
Anyone else got any ideas or come across this issue?
The system service status says that it is all good.
Thanks
Keith

Why does watching movies from iCloud fill up storage? And why do I have to reset to clean storage?

i watch movies from iCloud. some how it fills up my storage,but I can't clear it without resetting. What am I doing wrong?

If you are talking about the movies that have the cloud icon next to them, you are not actually streaming them. You are downloading them from the cloud. If you completely download the movie, then you will be able to delete them as John Galt is describing above.
This isn't made every clear by Apple, IMO. Most people assume that they are streaming, but when you tap the cloud icon, you start downloading the movie and it can't be deleted until it is fully downloaded. I have been down this road a few times myself.

When I send email from iphone, mail on my mac crashes every time.

The latest in a string of issues I've had with Mountain Lion, and even more with Lion. This is the latest and most frustrating.
Eveytime I send an email from iphone or ipad, mail on my macbook pro crashes. This happens everytime!
Also, Safari is unusable as keeps crashing and hardly ever loads properly so moved to Chrome which works perfectly.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

In Gmail I can setup other accounts to "send" email from- can I use these other addresses in Mac Mail

In Gmail if you click the 'cog' button under your username you can choose "Settings" from the drop down menu. From Settings you choose the accounts and import tab and can enter other email addresses. This is useful to me because I have an email address [email protected] and while foobar.com host a server, the is no actual mail server but it can forward emails to aliases on that domain to some other another email address setup by admin.
When I compose a message in Gmail in the browser I can choose [email protected] or [email protected] as my send address. I almost exclusively use my gmail account through Mac Mail on my MBP as an IMAP account.
My question is, can I set up Mac mail in some way to send an email from the gmail server but using the alastair@foobar alias(es) as the send address?

Cannot send email from icloud on web.

I use icloud in Safari to manage my email. Since yesterday each time I attempt to send an email, I receive the following:
"Cannot send message. This message cannot be sent at this time."
I am receiving emails, just cannot send.
I've tried both Safari and Firefox. I've tried restarting my computer.
I tried sending from both my @me and my @icloud addresses.
Lastly, I am able to send from my iphone 5. So this appears to be isolated to the web version of icloud.
Thank you!

I have been having the same problems for the last two days now. It won't let me send, but it will let me save it to my drafts folder. I even tried opening the e-mail form my iPhone 5 and it won't let me send it there either. The last two times i ended up copying the contents from my failed e-mail on my phone and pasting that into a new e-mail and that works. I normally use the icloud web app to reply to e-mails when i'm at work (using win 7) and it is very frustrating.

Cannot send email from icloud, iPod touch w/ iOS 5

i Opened up an icloud account for my daughter. I set it up on her iPod touch as well. When I log into iCloud on the web, click mail I can send an email but I can't receive an email. the error message states ( from my ipad for example when I send her an emil) that the recipient (daughters email addy) was rejected by server because the user is unknown. Anyone with any ideas that may help
Thanks

Unable to send email from my server to internet mail address. Labview.

I have had great success sending mail when I SMTP to the actual mail server that the email address is on. But when I try to send from my server to some other email address I get an unable to relay "email address" server response. If someone has any ideas on this I would appreciate it. I have included some information that may aid in this endeavor. (I do not want to use Active X thanks to Outlook's dislike of that)
Example:
[email protected] email to mail.bellsouth.net works fine. [email protected] email to mail.company.com works fine. [email protected] from mail.company.com gives unable to relay message. (Vice Versa)
Exact server response from SendEmail_LV6.vi from developer zone: (

tp://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.DISPLAY_EPD4?p_guid=B45EACE3EB9956A4E034080020E74861&p_node=DZ52050&p_submitted=N&p_rank=&p_answer=&p_source=External)
220 server.company.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 5.0.2195.5329 ready at Fri, 23 Jan 2004 10:27:22 -0600
250 server.company.com Hello [10.1.1.176]
250 2.1.0 [email protected]...Sender OK
550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [email protected]
554 5.5.2 No valid recipients
500 5.3.3 Unrecognized command

I agree, it is ususual for an SMTP server to check the validity of the reverse-path address, because mailers could just use a invalid address on a valid domain, e.g. [email protected] The address in the "MAIL FROM:" command gives the reverse path to communicate errors and can be different from the actual sender address.
In any case, this is quite irrelevant for the current discussion, because address verification has nothing to do with relaying.
The error message:
550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [email protected]
is completely unrelated to your:
450 Unable to find nowhere.com
Just to clarify, I was talking about address in the FROM: field of the message header, and not what is
communicated in the "MAIL FROM:" SMTP command. (Similarly, the TO: field in the header is not used for message targeting and can be anything, it can even be missing and the SMTP server still does not care. Targeting is done entirely with the RCPT TO: SMTP command which not contained in the header (the mail header is part of the message DATA). Refer to RFC 821 for further details.
You probably won't find a legitimate SMTP server that allows relaying, so the solution is to use the designated SMTP server for the particular location.
