MacBook Pro :: Why Can Only Receive Emails And Not Send When Away From Home
May 31, 2012
Why can I only receive emails and not send send them when away from home ( no problem sending and receiving at home ) .I have the same problem on my iphone 3gs as my Macbook pro.
Info:
MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.6.8)
I will try and be as clear as possible and I hope I posted on the right board. 1. I connect my MacBook air to email via WiFi at home. 2. When I do this I can send and receive emails using the mac email program 3. I can also connect to the internet as well.
Now the problem 1. When I am in a hotel say and connecting to the internet using a WiFi hotspot:- 2. I can surf the internet with no issues 3. But cannot seem to send or receive any emails.
I also have a similar problem with my IPhone except even at home I can't send any emails when WiFi is on but it receives with no issues. Again, using a WiFi hotspot I have the same issue. Turning off WiFi and switching to 3g or edge I can receive and send email.
I can send emails, without any problems...but I can't RECEIVE any emails, at all. All of a sudden.
On the left bottom corner, I can see, receiving 1 of 4, and after 1 min, the bar is gone, and I cannot get any emails at all.
When I login to the webmail (abc.com/webmail for instance), I can find there're 4 emails sitting there "unread"
May I know what's the problem? and how to fix it? because I want to be able to receive the mails from MAIL instead of logging in to webmail all the time.
I have an issue with my Apple Mail. I've configured my server's email on it. Now it works all fine when I setup a new account; I can easily send and receive emails. However, after I quit the application, and reopen it, I can ONLY send emails! I don't receive any emails!
I had an active @mac.com address and made a smooth transition to iCloud some months ago. My iCloud apple identity is my @mac.com address but since Sunday, I cannot send or receive emails with this address, only with my @me.com address. Same for iMac, iPhone and iPad.I have now spent two long phone calls with the apple help number. I then had a fast track on-line conversation with someone today for another hour to have it escalated to a senior advisor. They have tried to sort out the problem unsuccessfully - am sure they will have another go on Monday. In the meanwhile, is there anyone who has had the same problem before? I have tried changing my password on iCloud, deleting and reinstalling my iCloud on my iPhone but nothing has worked.
when trying to receive and send emails from mail app it says im offline, but im not. Also, says the yahoo.co.uk IMAP server [URL].. rejected the password for user. ive tried verifying but has not worked
I've been trying to set up a new email account using apple mail Version 2.1.3 (753.1) using mac osx version 10.4.11. My out going mail server is Sky. However,it is not a sky email address and i'm having real problems getting it to work. The account has been set up and i can recieve email but not send email. When i try to send an email i get the following message.
The server response was: 5.5.1 [URL]
or
The SMTP server �smtp.tools.sky.com� rejected the password for user �Blah blah�
Please re-enter your password, or cancel.
I did this and clicked on ok but that box just reappears. I know that the password is correct.
I am new to Mac so please bear with my incompetence. I have managed to find the plugin HTTPMail to add to Apple Mail in enable the use of my hotmail account in this software. Strangely, though, I cannot see any emails (i.e. it has not synchronised any of my folders/mails), I cannot receive any, BUT I have tried sending one and it actually worked. Would there be a step that I missed? I am on Leopard version 10.5.6., Mail version 3.5.
I accidentally changed some settings in the mail program on a friends iMac for the iCloud account. Now he cannot send or receive any mails. How can I reset the good settings?
As of yesterday my Mac will no longer send or receive emails that have attachments on them. It doesn't matter the size or format of the attachment, nothing happens. It shows as Sent but it doesn't get to the recipient and I can't receive either.
I have a btconnect.com email account. Sending emails using the apple mail system is is fine, no issues, easy to set p snd it works, but I cannot receive. I have tried all sorts of different settings in the preferences, and I am sure the use names and passwords I am using are correct.
For some reason I can receive but not send email. I have called my email provider who says everything is fine on there end and I have gone and checked to make sure all is ok under my account but still not working. I thought about deleting the account and reinstalling. This problem is only on my MacBook. Email still working ok on the iPad.

When using Pop i could recieve but couldnt send and now im using http plug in and can send but cannot recieve i use hotmail.co.uk as .com in my email address. I would really appreciate if somebody could help me out i know if i join google problem solved but had my hotmail account for a long time and been ex RAF its the easiest way to get friends from my past getting in touch.
I cant receive or send mail and I found out it is also keep retrieving maills like " recovered mail folder" ...I have deleted 80GB of recovered mails..
In the past few weeks, I have had major trouble in sending emails from my Macbook via the mail application (program), but I am able to receive mail fine. Any hints before I throw my Macbook onto oncoming traffic (which is also running majorly slow since the last update). I have been sitting here for about 30 mins waiting to send an email.
I am not able to receive my emails, but I am able to send? Comcast said all my settings were correct and I am able to view my email if I go and log into my comcast acct.?
I can't send or receive new email. June 6th is the last time I received email and I can't get mail online. I have gone through all the trouble shooting and all the information is correct, however, it says my server name with (offline) in parenthesis and I can't edit that.
I recently bought a Mac book Pro and I was starting to set up my Hotmail e-mail on my mail app. But when I set the e-mail on the app I did not receive any message although I could send messages out. I had a mac air and when I set up the e-mail, I received mail with no problem. Why am I not receiving mails on my Mac Pro?
