Problems Sending Email - Receiving is Fine
If you are unable to send email, but can receive you should first verify that you have your email client configured properly. Below are the SMTP SSL and Non SSL settings. you should use one of the following:
SMTP Settings
Non SSL Settings
SSL Settings
|Incoming Server: mail.example.com
Outgoing Server: mail.example.com
Username: Your full e-mail address
Password: Your e-mail account password
Incoming Port: POP3 110 or IMAP 143
Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required
Secure Authentication or SPA needs to be turned off
|Incoming Server: secure##.inmotionhosting.com
Outgoing Server: secure##.inmotionhosting.com
Username: Your full e-mail address
Password: Your e-mail account password
Incoming Port: POP3 995 or IMAP 993
Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) Port: 465
SMTP Authentication Required
Secure Authentication or SPA needs to be turned off
If you are unsure how to make the above changes, we recommend reviewing our Getting Started Guide: Email.
Port 25 blocking
If you cannot send mail, the problem is likely a restriction by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) as many block the normal sendmail port 25, due to their own security concerns. This can be the case even if sending was working recently as some ISP's roll these changes through without warning.
To give you an idea of how common port 25 blocking is, we've included below links to a few major ISP's and their online documentation regarding port 25 blocking:
|Why is Port 25 for Email Submission Not Supported?
|Verizon.com - Re-configure Your Email Settings to Send Email
Checking if Port 25 is blocked
For the average user, the easiest way to find out if port 25 is being blocked is to contact your ISP and ask them. For the advanced user, we've included directions below to test port 25 blocking via the command line.
To test if port 25 is blocked, open your command line on your local computer. For windows users, you can access this via start > run > cmd. Mac users can use the "Terminal" application. Once on the command line, type: (Note! Be sure that you replace example.com with your actual domain name)
telnet example.com 25
Please note: Telnet is disabled on newer versions of Microsoft Windows. If you receive an error similar to,"Windows cannot find 'telnet'", you may need to enable telnet. Please see our article on Enabling telnet on a Windows computer
If you get no response or a failure, port 25 blocking is the likely issue. It is NOT port 25 blocking if you receive a response similar to this:
220-servername.inmotionhosting.com 220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited, 220 and/or bulk e-mail.
Port 25 blocking - Fixes
If your ISP does block port 25, you can work around it in either of three ways:
The Preferred Solution
As your ISP is blocking port 25, the preferred solution is to use the outgoing mail server provided by your ISP. As each Internet Service Provider has different settings you will need to use (such as username and password, smtp server...), you will need to contact your ISP for the correct settings. We do have alternate solutions to this which involve going over port 465 or 587 instead of 25, however if your ISP begins to block 465 or 587 in the future, you will once again be unable to send email.
Alternative Solution #1
Beginning in late March 2010, we are updating many of our servers to run SMTP over port 587 as well as port 25. If your ISP is blocking port 25, simply change your SMTP port number to 587. This setting is usually found in the advanced settings of your email client. Please see the end of this article for more details.
Alternative Solution #2
Use the secure, or SSL, port for outgoing mail. This will involve selecting the setting "this server requires a secure connection (SSL)" in your mail program. You only need to make this change for the outgoing mail server. Once you check that box, then change the port listing from 25 to 465 and save the changes. These settings are usually found in the advanced settings of your email client. Please see the end of this article for more details.
You will also want to change the outgoing server name to secure##.inmotionhosting.com, secure## being the secure alternative of the actual server you are on. For example, if your Welcome Email states that your account is on biz54.inmotionhosting.com, your outgoing server name should be secure54.inmotionhosting.com.
If you are unsure, please tech support. This option will work in most cases, however we cannot guarantee that your internet service provider will not some day in the future begin to block port 465. Below are instructions to change the ports for the most common Email Clients.
How to update your SMTP port and SSL settings

I am the secretary of a local historical society and for years I have routinely bulk emailed (BCC) about 110 addresses with information about upcoming events, dues reminders and such. Within the past week or so, I have been getting pop-up notices that I have too many addresses for one email. Is this a new limitation imposed by AOL? Is there a way I can increase the number of allowable addresses? I have worked around the problem by splitting the mailing in half but this is an inconvenience I would prefer to avoid.Thank you for any help/suggestions.
2018-11-12 1:13 pm
Hello. Unfortunately, AOL does not disclose their limitations publicly. This very well may be a limitation imposed by their servers. It is common to impose limitations on the number of recipients in one email to prevent the server from being blacklisted/identified as spam. Breaking up the emails and sending to a smaller number of recipients is the only way around the limitation.

why add-on domain email can't send / receive email from other server e.g gmail?

You'll want to check that domain's email routing and MX records settings. You should also check out our email authentication guide.

I have recently bought wix to host our website using your domain, and have linked it through name pointing. it then gave me an option to use g suite to make a new email which is the current one we are using, however after making the switch to gsuite with our new email the old one doesnt send or recieve messages and when we send emails to it, it claims there isnt a e-mail with that address or some other error. our new email (info@******.co.uk currently works with gsuite, however webmail and the old email iman@******.co.uk doesnt work. it would be great to hear back from you.

Considering that the domain is pointed away from our server there is nothing we can do to affect the situation, I suggest contacting Wix or Google support specifically for help with configuration of your DNS records.

Best regards

I recommend reviewing the bounce back information that is returned when you attempt to send email from that address. That is the only way to determine why the email is not allowed to send.
If you are a customer of InMotion Hosting, I recommend contacting our Technical Support to assist you with your specific account privately.

If you are not receiving email then your domains MX record is most likely not pointed to your server. You should check to ensure your MX record is pointed to your server and that your MailExchanger setting is set to local.

i have recently configured SMTP in my personal set up win 2012 r2, but i m not able to send test mail to my gmail. i have changed outboundaries port to 25, 587 as well. Please advise. Thanks
2018-03-14 5:10 pm
Sorry for the problems with the email client. If you're having problems with it, make sure to double check and see if you're using the correct ports. 25 and 587 are the non-secure ports. If you're using the secure settings, then the port should be 465. You may need to speak with support provided for the email client that you are using.
2018-01-28 11:52 pm
I have had same problem today. The outgoing email was not working in my MS outlook, The reason was not becaues of the port settings. But infact, there was auto Avast Antivirus program downloaded and installed in the computer. Without me knowing. I think it came together with Ccleaner . After I uninstalled that. it worked. Last time i had problem that windows security auto update didnt work properly and kept updating itself over and over without sucessfully finishing. the problem was that my lenovo machine came with Mc Afee anti virus even though i didnt buy or activate it. It kind of created this issue. after uniinstalling it, the things were fine. But to understand that, I first tried everything even formatting and re-installing windows.

Thanks Georgiro
2018-01-08 10:33 am
When you are trying to send an email to email@example.com, email@example.com, email@example.com, or email@example.com if the email fails then you should be receiving a bounce-back message from their email server. This is standard protocol between email servers. It's possible that the bounce-backs may be getting filtered on your end. We need those bounce-back messages in order to determine why your sent email are failing. If you wish have this issue handled in private, then please submit a ticket (with the bounce-back) to our live technical support team. They can also test sending emails from your server. You can find their contact information at the bottom of this page.

Up untill a few days ago my Copier and CCTV DVR were sending out Email when ever required too.. Never had a problem with them.Talking years. Then all at once quit. Same day both of them. Have them set up SMTP. Changed no setting. The only thing I did that day was go into my Router and port Fowarded a new adittional DVR. Pretty sure I didnt change anything else in the Router. I tried everything. Im going to reset the router back to its originial setting tomorrow and start fresh. I have done this many times setting up this kind of stuff. Im not Mr IT guy> could there be a virus in my PC flooding spam out my network. Went as far as to shut down all the PC's on the network except for the server. I had to keep that running. Shutting that down tomorrow with the rest of the PC's. Check with comcast and asked them to look at there end and there settings. They didnt see anything. Everything else seems to be acting normal on the network. I have all the settings correct in the SMTP settings. Anybody got any advice, feedback. Tried smtp.aol.com and smtp.gmail.com. Thanks for any help
2017-12-11 10:28 pm
In regards to tracking down possible spamming going on, I recommend using our guides on locating spam activity in Exim and finding spam script with Exim. They should help you identify if there is spam being sent out from your server. As far as the SMTP you should use the SMTP for the domain that you are sending mail from. For instance, if you are using an email address issued by AOL or Google, you would use smtp.aol.com or smtp.google.com (or whatever SMTP hostname they advise). The main point is that a domain needs to be authorized to send via the SMTP hostname's server, otherwise it will be rejected. I hope this helps!

Emails can be bounced back for several reasons. We have an article here that explains how to read the bounceback to see why your messages are being bounced and solutions on how to correct that. You can also contact technical support and they will be able to help you figure out why the messages are bouncing too.

Until a week ago, my sending email on both my PC and laptop was working fine. Now it won't work, and I get the following message when trying to send on either device:
503 Valid RCPT command must precede DATA
I have checked the Outlook settings on both devices and they are identical to those you recommend - the outgoing server requires authentication and uses the same settings as my incoming server and I'm using port 465. What to do, please?
2017-06-28 2:56 pm
Hello Norman,
Sorry for the problems with your Outlook email client. The problem appears to be focused on that particular email client. Check out this response from Microsoft regarding that error. It may have the answer you need to resolve your error.

I have a small business and recently moving my host email through to outlook 2007, i added the account and had a message: Send test e-mail message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).
Funny I can receive emails but cannot send - I changed the port from 25 to 2525 but there must be something incorrect.
Any help?
2017-03-23 4:06 pm
Try using ports 465 or 587. Also verify your outgoing settings are accurate and free of misspellings. If your problems persist, check your mail logs for additional errors.
Thank you,

2017-03-22 4:37 pm
Hello David,
The change of your work computer settings for email will have no effect on other devices unless they're synched to use the same settings some how. You need to check the settings being used with your devices . They should be up-to-date and using the same settings as your work computer is using to connect to the mail server. If you are an InMotion Hosting customer, you can find your email settings here.
If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

It seems like your router could possibly be part of the problem, but really we are not authoritative regarding Microsoft's products. I would recommend contacting Microsoft directly, and perhaps also your Internet Service Provider( ISP ).

I have an iPad Pro and an iPhone that pretty much run my business. Every since the IOS 10 came out both of my devices will no longer accept the security certificate for the emails. Now I can only receive emails, nothing seems to be accepted when I try and send an email. Is there a solution for this ? IOS devices run my contracting business and must be able to work.
2017-01-16 2:38 pm
The steps here should allow devices to work normally. If they are still presenting issues, you may want to contact your Apple support to see if there is a specific setting on the devices that needs to be set.
2017-01-02 2:57 pm
Had the same problem, went to inmotion support (nothing helped that they offered) and finally found the answer with a bit of googling the name of my router and web service:
Answer: Check your router! My home webservice (T-Online) has the router (that they give customers) set up so that the only SMTP traffice is through their SMTP....reason to limit/block spam mail....however one can go into the router admin section and change the setting (they allow it) and TA-DAH! the email goes through immediately!
Check your router.

i have facing problem in seding email, i can send from webmail but cannot send from outlook 2013. it was working good till yesterday. my setting is pop3. outgoing server require autehntion(use same settings as my incoming mail) outgoing port 587(since day 1). i have checked switching between port 25 and 587 also switched switching sending email authenticaiton checked and unchecked with both ports(25 and 587) incoming is ok . sending from webmail is ok. please suggest solution.
2016-11-14 4:34 pm
If you have checked your ports and toggled the authentication, then you can rule those out most likely. I would try and re-enter all your settings to see if that helps.
2016-10-21 12:03 am
All of a sudden i cannot set up my email on any of my IOS apps. The ones it was previously set up on now won't send the emails. I have checked my settings to make sure they are correct, and they are as instructed above. Username is full email address, pass is verified correct (can log into webmail) incoming is port 993 and server is secure102.inmotionhosting.com. Outgoing is 465 and is the same as above. Please advise as I am unable to send any emails at this time on my phone, which is not acceptable for my business and if not resolved may result in us having to get hosting elsewhere.
2016-10-21 9:03 am
Daniel, I'm sorry to hear that you're having this issue, but I'm happy to help! Are you also making sure that you have set SMTP Authentication to 'required'? When did this issue begin? As this is a public forum and sensitive information should not be shared here, have you contacted our <a href="http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/website-troubleshooting/how-to-get-great-technical-support">Live Support team</a> for account specific assistance with this issue? When did this issue first begin? Have your devices updated recently? Are you using the IOS mail application, or a 3rd party one? What version is the mail application itself?
2016-10-22 9:20 pm
It is effecting all IOS apps that do mail, both iOS native Mail app and any third party apps. Some cannont authenticate, others cannot send email which others can recieve. It seems like there is some issue with the latest update to iOS 10 (which is when the issues began) and authentication to your servers via iPhones. Wasn't sure if others were having this issue.
2016-10-06 7:44 pm
Sometimes we can send emails and sometimes we can't. Can received them
Port 25 is open on mac.'
Our settings are absolutely correct as have done online chat with 2 tech support to confirm this.
Online doctor says can't connect to SMTP inmotion host server.
How can we send emails?
2016-10-07 10:46 am
We are happy to help you troubleshoot further but will need some additional information.
Are you getting any errors, or bounced returned emails? Can you provide them?
Are you able to send email from Webmail? Since this is just an email client (like mac mail, outlook, etc.) it will confirm if the server's mail services are functional.
When this happens are you on the same network/location, or are you connecting to via networks?
Port 25 may be open on your mac, but it depends on your network. For example, many ISP's block ports on their networks. Often public wifi, or even college/university networks block ports as well.
I recommend reviewing your mail logs for additional clues since it provides specific evidence and record or your connection attempts.
Thank you,

As of Sept 8 a.m i have been unable to send emails from my personal email account.
The message reads that I reached my limit.
I only send emails one at a time and send average of 20 per week - if that.
This has never happened to me before.
I did check at 1 a.m. on Sept 9 and it worked again for one test email. I then went to bed - but then at 9 a.m. I was blocked again.
It also looks like my email is being used by 'someone' sending out BIRTHDAY and COUSIN DAY greetings. These messages hit my email as SPAM and undeliverable.
I am using my gmail via explorer non-chrome and on ios iphone 5s.
Thank you

If emails you did not send are being returned, I recommend changing your email password immediately.
Check for updates for any contact forms, plugins, or CMS' you might be using.
Also, here is a helpful link to our Website Security guide.

In your email headers indicate your email is being delivered to the recipient server, but is being refused delivery because the IP is blacklisted with SpamHaus.
I recommend contacting your email host so they can request delisting from SpamHaus.

I am having replying and forwarding mails.. As long as the mail includes the body of the previous mail, it classifies it as spam. Is there a spam filter on outgoing mails? How do I disable it?
2016-07-11 2:40 pm
Yes, there is an outbound spam filter. Our servers use Spam Assassin for this. You can read more about that in our article on the 550 outbound spam message.
2016-06-28 9:19 am
We are getting outgoing email flagged as Spam. We had this before and requiring SMTP authentication took care of the problem at the time. Now it seems to happen only on a second or third generation reply. New emails go through fine. Any thoughts on how to remedy this? Thanks!
2016-06-28 2:34 pm
Which email client and settings are you using? Have you check the content of the message or any spam-like patterns?

Hello Dyari,
Sorry for the problem with your email. MS Exchange server is a mail server that is supported by your network. We do not provide support for that type of mail server or service. Your best avenue of support is to contact your local IT network people to see why your mail account is not accessible.
If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

Hi Dears,
I am also facing this same sending email issue, here there are three network connection, two has been working fine then other one can receive but can't able to send. i tried 110 & 25, and 995 & 465. but nothing use .Suddenly happened this issues, i check with ISP person whether anything blocked or not , They told everythingin active nothing block. who can resolve this issues i really appreciate.
2016-05-24 2:19 pm
If you have already tried troubleshooting with different email settings and different email client configuration and checked with your ISP then you can also check your mail logs to see if you have get more specific information about the errors are coming from.
2016-05-15 4:09 pm
Date: 5/15/2016
Issue: Suddenly Unable to Send e-mail (or send a test e-mail) using MS Outlook 2013 through my ISP (Cox.net) and utilizing my personally-owned URL e-mail server.
Background: For 2 years, I had no issues using MS Outlook 2013 to send/receive e-mail using my URL e-mail server. Upon returning home from vacation on 7 May 16, I was able to receive e-mail using MS Outlook 2013, but was unable to send e-mail. Upon checking the Outlook Account Settings, I found out that I was also unable to send a Test e-mail using the settings that I had been using successfully for the last two years. These settings were: Account Type:POP3; Incoming Mail Server - testdummy.com; Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.testdummy.com; Logon Information: My Login and Password from my testdummy.com account; Under More Settings: My Incoming POP3 Server = 110, Outgoing Server = 587. NO encryption boxes checked whatsoever on ANY of the Tabs.
After fault isolating the problem with Verio.com, they duplicated my Outlook parameters on their MS Outlook 2013 machine (using my Login/Password information that I provided them). They were able to send/receive e-mail without issue. This action prompted me to think that something had changed with Cox.net. (Cox made a change effective 1 May 2016).
Solution: I made the following changes to my MS Outlook Account Settings and now everything works fine again. Changed Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) to: smtp.east.cox.net (I chose this SMTP address since I subscribe to Cox out of Alexandria, VA...your choice may be different!); Under More Settings, click the 2nd TAB (Outgoing Server), click the box near the top "My Outgoing Server Requires SMTP Authentication"; Click the Radio Button that says, "Log On Using" and type in your UserName and Password to your Cox.net account. Be sure to check the box "Remember Password". Attempt to test the account settings and you should get two Green check marks. Finish the process to Save Your Changes and then attempt to send an e-mail from MS Outlook 2013 to ensure everything works.
I hope this info helps,

For a month I had the same problem. I don't know if this will work but my sent box was so full it wouldn't let me send anything out. I removed all the sent mail in the folder and it worked after that and I haven't had any problems since.

I can receive email on my mac but its just stoppped sending. i phone still working fine. I connected to wifi at Melbourne airport recently thats the only thing thats changed. If I chnge my password with hotmail would it muck up my phone too or is the problem with microsoft for blocking something because recent activity has changed
2016-05-05 9:43 am
Hello Sandy,
Thank you for contacting us. Often, public networks (such as airport wifi) block ports. I recommend trying the two solutions above, instead of changing your password.

My Office and I thank you all so much. This week would have been three weeks that we've not been able to send an email using Outlook. I can't remember how I got here but this worked like a charm. All fixed now and we also now see why we had the problem to begin with (port 25).

1. Go to Account Settings (Tools > Accounts)
2. Click on the "Mail" tab
3. Highlight your GreenNet email account, and then click on "Properties"
4. On the "Servers" tab, check that you are using GreenNet's SMTP server. Outgoing mail (SMTP) should read "smtp.gn.apc.org"
5. Make sure there is a tick in "My server requires authentication" (the "Settings" should be "same settings as incoming").
6. Next, click on the Advanced tab, under 'Server Port Numbers' change the Outgoing mail server port from 25 to 2525 (or vice versa, depending on which one you have there already. You could also try 465 with encryption).
7. Save your changes and try sending email again.

I have recently experienced this error when trying to reply or send email:
"Login to server secure176.inmotionhosting.com failed. We have been on your server for approximately two months and have no issues whatsoever in sending or replying to email, until yesterday. There's no reason why settings that worked in Mozilla Thunderbird have now simply stopped working. I perused your suggestions and double checked incoming/outgoing server settings, (which have worked with no problem previously)
2016-03-31 12:26 pm
Hello Ron,
If you are on a Reseller server, those settings are not correct. They should be set to secure176.servconfig.com for the reseller account. The reseller name servers are not the same as the InMotion Hosting servers.
I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.

2016-03-31 12:05 pm
Hello Sandeep,
Sorry for the problem with your email. As per the error, the authentication of the user is being questioned at the client. You would need to check that users's credentials at the client or server in order to correct it. The error indicates that the user is coming from a Yahoo account. If we are to investigate it further, you would need to provide account information as well as the settings you're using for your mail client.
If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

Hi There, I was hoping this site would fix my problem, but my problem is slightly differrent. I'm on Miscrosoft Entourage for Mac, and all of a sudden there is one contact in my address book where I can no longer send or receive emails. I can sned and receive on my IPad, so I assume there is some sort of filter that has been allocated to the email address. I have tried tp shceck the Properties assigned to the contact, but I can't fix the problem. Can anyone help please?
2016-02-19 10:34 am

Are you by chance getting any bounce back errors? Have you tried removing the contact from your address book and re-adding it? You may need to do the same with your mac mail account itself.

Hi TJ,
Have tried this and it doesn't work. I have two accounts on the Mac, with two different ISPs, and I can't send the message from either email address.
The error message is Error: 5.7.6 Message rejected as spam (CM).
Mail could not be sent (from email address stated)
Error: - 17099
Any thoughts?
2016-02-22 9:30 am
Hello Rayna,
Sorry for the problems with the email/email address. Have you tried clearing the outbound emails that are stuck with this address and just sending a test message? It's possible that if one message is queued in the outbound and being repeatedly blocked. The message could possibly be flagged for spam and then not allowed for outbound traffic. We can not verify this for you unless you're an InMotion customer and you provide us the email address in question. Blocking emails by address is not something that is typically done on our servers. If you want to handle the issue privately, please submit a verified support ticket along with the necessary account and email information so that they can look into it for you.
If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

Hello Audrey,
Thank you for contacting us. I first recommend double-checking your SMTP settings for misspellings, you can view your specific email settings in cPanel at anny time.
Also, as a test try rotating your settings. For example, if you are using the non-SSL setttings for SMTP, try the SSL settings instead (and vice versa).
Thank you,

I would suggest checking your anti-virus and firewall settings. Turn off any anti-virus software and attempt to send. If that doesn't work disable your firewall and see if you can send then.

They have checked that it's not getting caught in spam etc, but it's only this one client that they are unable to send to.

email@example.com is the email address that sends an error message back to

I email our members. I created a email@example.com email account. I send the email to that email address and BCC to the member's personal email addresses. Recently, I get a pop-up error window stating that it cannot be sent. It only allows about 50 emails to be sent at one time. So, since we have over 150 members I have to send the same email 6 or 7 times to get through the list of email addresses.
Also, when I send an email to the email@example.com I get this message returned. However, the email does deliver the email addresses.
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of itsrecipients. This is a permanent error.

2015-10-20 11:46 am
Hello Randy,
Sorry for the problem with sending emails. The problem has to do with a an established limit for sending emails (50). There is also a 250 mail per hour limit on all account. If you are continually sending a newsletter or message to multiple people that number in the hundreds, then I highly recommend using a service called MailChimp. This will not only allow you to send to your member list in one shot, it also is highly customizable and does not affect your hosting account.
I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.

I am using Outlook for MAC and just updated to 15.4.2 a few days ago and since then, I cannot send emails from Outlook. I am receiving them fine and can get emails on my exchnage server through the server company (Metisentry) and they do not believe the issue is on their end. The outgoing port was 25 - I hvae also tried 587 and 465, both with and without SSL. None of these options allows me to send email.
2015-10-01 1:43 pm
Hello Melanie,
Thank you for contacting us. As a test, I recommend performing a Ping/Traceroute to your mail servers.

If your problems persist, check your mail logs for errors or record of your transmission.

Hi! Thank you for this article!
My issue was this:
I've been using Microsoft Outlook 2010 at work with 4x E-mail Accounts with no hassles for several years. All of a sudden, an error message popped up saying Outlook could not connect to my incoming POP server, and to check with my ISP or administrator? What the hell!?
I double-checked the passwords, they were correct. Logged in via webmail - All good. I couldn't work out why Outlook suddenly decided not to work? I could send e-mails, but not receive anything.
Anyway, my solution was as simple as changing the port from 25 to 587.
I don't know whether it was blocked by my ISP, or my web host, or my computer! But either way, it worked.
2015-08-26 11:11 am
Hello Nick,
Thanks for the comment. Yes, port 25 is often heavily used by spammers, so many ISP's have started to block it. If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

I have Outlook 365 set to use my gmail account with IMAP. It sends and receives emails. However the "sent" folder in outlook does not sync or update. When I first installed it recently it downloaded "sent" items from over a year ago. It never downloaded anything more recent and it continues to not download any sent items. If I open my "Sent Messages" folder it appears that I have not sent a message for over a year. However, if I log onto gmail through my browser the sent items are there in the proper place. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via Outlook on my Mac - it keeps saying error code 150.
My outgoing mail ports are fine - i can send via webmail but not via my iPhone or Outlook. Any ideas??
2015-01-16 4:20 pm
Hello Jared,
Per Microsoft's forum, the error 150 that you're seeing is an "unknown error". This doesn't help much, but the discussion on the forum was that people were able to switch the outgoing port and it would work. I don't know if you are an InMotion customer or not, but the information on this article is used to identify the email settings. Since your problem is with Outgoing mail, the settings are a likely culprit. If you're not using SSL settings, then switch to them. If you are using SSL, then turn SSL off and make sure that your outgoing port is set to 587.
If you continue to have the problem, please provide us the email settings that you're using, the version of Outlook and Mac iOS that you're using. We can then investigate the issue in more depth.

You may also want to contact your email host, to see if they are seeing errors in the email log.
Thank you,

Hello, My problem is that when I send an email, the receiver only gets to see half of the text. so my email is 200 words long, once the mail is send from mozilla, only 100 words show up. do you people know what the problem is?
2014-12-18 10:29 am
Hello safeer,
Thank you for contacting us. We are happy to help, but will need some additional information. Who is hosting your email? For example, is it hosted on our servers, gmail, hotmail, etc.
Are you using Mozilla Firefox to access email on webmail?
Are you using Mozilla Thunderbird to send emails?
Thank you,

Hi All,
My problem: Outlook-365 can't send email using smtp.comcast.net server.
Test messages - OK. Receive - OK.
When trying to send - error 0x8004010F An object can't be found.
I tried No security, SSL:465, TLS:587. Same result.
Outlook-2003 works just fine.
Any ideas, Cheer kes
2014-12-15 9:36 am
Hello Kes,
If your Outlook 2003 is working, then you want to make sure the Outlook 365 has absolutely the same settings. If they do, you will want to check with Outlook 365 support for help because the only thing you should need are the proper settings for it to work properly.
Kindest Regards,

Hi Scott,
Yes, I did try same settings as Outlook2003, as well as Comcast preferred setting for Outlook-07/10/13, same results. Maybe Comcast doesn't support Out365 at all ?!
Thak You for Your help,
2014-12-15 12:14 pm
Hello Kestas,
Thank you for your question. I recommend contacting Comcast, so they can troubleshoot the problem in real-time.
For example, our Live Support team can monitor the server logs and see if you are connecting to the server or not.
Thank you,
2014-12-15 2:02 pm
Hi Jean-Paul,
Comcast pointed me to the right direction , that was something with Out data files (.pst), I did removed all accounts & data files, pointed to old ".pst", recreated accounts and magically it start working. Thank You all for the help,

This article is relay helpful.
2014-12-02 12:22 pm
Brilliant, JeffMa!! Never occurred ot me that my two domains would not be on the same IMH server!
2014-12-02 11:22 am
Thanks Arn, yes I have all those settings. (Use SSL of course.) It may be my unfamilairity with T-bird: I've got the micro-metrics ones working fine now -- but the snowtao ones are still choking.
Okay, I deleted one of the two snowtao.com addresses that appear in the left-hand pane in T-bird and recreated it, using manual config.
Incoming: POP3 secure###.inmotionhosting.com port 995, SSL
Outgoing: SMTP secure###.inmotionhosting.com port 465 SSL
Tested and retested, and it keeps saying the "config couldn't be verified and asking if the username or password is wrong." The ID and pword work in webmail.
But: "Sending of password for user email@example.com did not succeed. Mail server secure158.inmotionhosting.com responded: Login failed."
(In Account Settings: I'm now up to ELEVEN (!) options in the dropdown for "Outgoing Server (SMTP)" -- HOW do I delete any of those?)
2014-12-02 11:35 am
It sounds like you are attempting to connect to a different server than your account is located on. Take a look at our article on finding your email settings for the correct server name for this account.
2014-12-01 12:28 pm
Hey Scott, this is the error message:
Sending of password for user ******@snowtao.com did not succeed. Mail server secure158.inmotionhosting.com responded: Login failed.
Sending of password for user *****@snowtao.com did not succeed. Mail server secure158.inmotionhosting.com responded: Login failed.
I know the user IDs and passwords are correct because I can take them directly into webmail at IMH and they work. (And I've tried the Comcast password, and the snowtao passords and the IMH password...)
In Account Settings -- for the Outgoing Server / stmp, I now have TEN of them -- one for each email address, plus one I've called Comcast Relay (which is merely a repeat of the Comcast email address that I only use for the Relay). The "Default" server (in "Use Default Server" is set-up as the "Relay Comcast - smpt.comcast.net (Default)" one.
Ideally, there would be two? Three? The personal domain (snowtao.com) and the biz one (micro-metrics.com). And maybe or maybe not? The Comcast Relay one? I'm guessing they all were created (cause I don't remember doing so) when T-bird pulled my emails addresses and folders over from Eudora?)
Weirdly, the biz address pulls incoming emails (and seemingly answers them as well). It shows the server name as "mail.micro-metrics.com" -- and its outgoing server (with correct secure number) is:
mail.micro-metrics.com - secure###.inmotionghosting.com
However, the various snowtao.com addresses show the server name(s) as "mail.snowtao.com" -- but its outgoing server is (each) "email@example.com -- smtp.comcast.net". And I cannot find anywhere to edit those?
Thanks! (Sorry it's so long -- want to make sure I'm providing enough info!)
p.s., and just to complicate matters -- I have three accounts showing in the left-hand pane in T-bird: two personal addresses and the biz (well, one of two) address(es) showing. The others? Appear IN Account Settings -- but I cannot find anywhere (and I have searched the web!!) that tells me how to get the others to show in the left-hand pan eo fht emaion T-bird view... So I cannot get them to check for mail -- but if I try to create a new Account (?) in the left-hand pane, it tells me there is already an account named that... ("Well, yes, but I want to SEE that account, you know?")
2014-12-01 1:17 pm
Sorry for the continued problems with Thunderbird. If you are using our servers for outgoing messages, then the settings should be based on the our outgoing settings. It's not immediately apparent what you are using for your email settings, but they should look like this:
NON-SSL Settings:
user name= firstname.lastname@example.com
email address password
Outgoing email server port = 587
Security = NONE
SSL settings
secure.server#.inmotionhosting.com (can also be: server#.inmotionhosting.com. example: ecbiz162.inmotionhosting.com)
user name= firstname.lastname@example.com
email address password
Outgoing email server port = 465
Security =SSL
You can also go here to find your email settings if you're not sure: How to find your Email Settings.
Hopefully, this clears up the issue. If you're still having problems after making sure your settings match up, then please let us know.

I cannot find how to use (my newly set-up) T-bird to SEND msgs through Comcast (my ISP), from either of my two InMotion domains (snowtao.com and micro-metrics.com). In Eudora, I have the Comcast email set-up as a relay account, and both domains are able to send and receive emails. T-bird imported all my Eudora mailboxes and personalities, and I have gone through each getting them correct -- but can't send or receive?
With some many people now having many many addresses, including several of their own domains -- a set of directions for how to set up relays to work with OMH would be great!
2014-12-01 10:41 am
Hello Elenor,
If Eudora is working with our accounts via ComCast, then the same settings would be used for Thunderbird. All email clients would use the same information as it is simply connection information it is looking for. Is there a specific message you are getting when it fails?

Anyone having problems setting up outlokk try the method below:
1. Goto to this links
with your google account sign in and you will find devices and activity, under it click "it was me" or something like that I forgot.
2. Again goto to this links
enable less secure app and save.
3. And finally renable pop and amap once again and logout.
4. Disable antivirus 'to be on safer side'.
5. Try again in outlook.

All at once, my email box, where I would write my message, appears to be "dimmed" and it will not let me type anything into it. This also happened on my laptop. I am totally confused, we had a power outage last night, but my computer was not up and running when it happened, it took nearly an hour for it to restart. I am with Centurylink and Windows 8 on my PC, the laptop is a Dell, windows 7. I am not a computer genius by any means. Help...what good is a computer if you can't send a message?
2014-11-17 12:20 pm
Hello Maurine,
What email client are you using? Are you able to log into your webmail at all? Is this specific to a single email account? Does it work from other networks such as a phone carrier? We can help with anything server side, but just need to know more information to understand if this is server side or on your side.

Hello sivamalepati,
Thank you for contacting us about Window Live Mail. We are happy to help, but will need some additional information.
What problems are you having?
Are you getting any errors? What are they?
Thank you,
2014-11-03 10:54 am
hi, iam using windows live mail, the mail are going and are even visible in sent folder, however the mails are not being received by the recipients, iam having problem since a week. no error message is being displayed. what could be the cause, can you please help us. iam from india.
2014-11-03 10:59 am
Hello sivamalepati,
Thank you for the follow up information. I recommend reviewing the email logs to see where the emails are being stopped. If you are hosted with us, Live Support can help you review the email logs.
For example, you can see in the logs if they are being delivered to the recipient server, or being rejected before that.
Thank you,
2014-11-03 11:07 am
we are not hosted with you, still you can help us? i checked with our mail server people, they say windows live mail has problems, but i don't find any issues, am able to receive mails and able to send, unfortunately we are not able to trace out where the mails are missing. can you please advise any modifications/help for me work accordingly. regards-sivaprasad
2014-11-03 11:47 am
We are happy to help, but will need some additional information. Have you tried any of the steps described above? Have you checked that your email settings are correct and without typos?
Have you tried restarting Windows Live Mail?
Did you recreate your email account in Live Mail?
Can you confirm there is nothing stuck in the outgoing box?
Thank you,
2014-11-03 12:05 pm
there is nothing struck in outbox, idid not recreate mail account, i did restart windows live mail several time since few days, nothing is happening. e- mail settings are correct, iam able to receive and send, the out going mails are not reaching the end user.
2014-11-03 1:03 pm
Hello sivamalepati,
If you are not seeing anything still in the outbox, then you may want to contact the owner of the mailserver to have them take a look and see if the email left the server and got a response from the recipient's server. If there is an issue, then it may have an error in the server log that they can adjust.
Kindest Regards,

I'm facing a techinical issue in outlook 2010, while i send the mails from my ID but where the receiver end it is appearing with different name.
Is there a solution to sort the issue.
2014-09-22 11:41 am
Please explain in a little more detail what is happening. Does this happen to only one email address or multiple? Did the behavior occur recently or has it always done so? Does this only occur when sending via Outlook as opposed to webmail? Are you one of our customers so we may be able to take a look in the server to see what is going on?

The article states up near the top that the servers for SSL are secure##.inmotionhosting.com, I get an error if I use that. cPanel (within the hosting) guidance states it is secure##.servconfig.com which does work. Your examples show incoming IMAP/POP settings, but the port shown is 993 which is just for IMAP, so these are misleading. I have also seen elsewhere in your help pages another setting for the server which was different again. In my case, I have recently moved to InMotionhosting, along with 40 websites and have been trying to use secure settings for email. I am based in the UK, with British Telecom as my ISP. I have spent around 4 hours trying to set a secure POP3 email account up and running using the information from your cPanel and from the various help items on your website and over 30 minutes chatting with technical support who could not help either. However I have come across a solution. I get a timeout if I try to use port 465 for SMTP on a Pop3 account. This port is not blocked from within my system, but I suppose it might be blocked by BT (ISP). It still times out if I am not using any security. However I have found that Port 587 and selecting TLS as the security type does work with the secure##.servconfig.com. (My POP3 incoming server is set up on SSL and using port 995.)
I hope that helps. The thread here is particularly long, so a lot of people are finding difficulty here.
2014-08-22 5:25 am
I live in Hong Kong and since I updated to 10.9.4 on my Mac I have not been able to send mail. Port 25 is not blocked. I have tried using a VPN as well to ensure it is not my ISP. Mail can send from Webmail, but from Apple Mail with SSL or no SSL, designating specific ports or selecting Default Ports I can not connect to the SMTP server.
2014-08-22 9:09 am
Hello Michael,
You will want to check all the settings to ensure they are correct. If you are connecting via the webmail and not the mac, then it is something on the mac side. Just check to ensure the update did not make any changes to your settings so that they are all as they were prior to the update.
Kindest Regards,
Scott M
2014-08-20 1:10 pm
I managed to follow the instructions, but it did not resolve my problem which is : not being able to send e-mails from my mac account. I have no problems from my i-phone.
2014-08-22 8:48 am
The mac and iphone should use the same settings. Also, test to ensure the iphone is sending from the same network. Barring any network issues, the settings are the only thing needed to connect.
Kindest Regards,

My Outlook 2010 quit connecting to the server yesterday at 11am. I've restarted outlook several times. restarted my computer. but it won't connect to my server. I've called my email provider & they are not having any issues.
I have my incoming IMAP at 993
Outgoing SMTP 465 both with SSL encrypted.
Everyone keeps telling me it's not an issue on their end but still I don't have emails. i can go into web mail & see that I have 100s of them waiting for me.
2014-08-20 11:13 am
Hello SANDY,
Thank you for your question. There are several things you can check.
Since ports are often blocked, have you tried the alternate email settings using the following ports?
IMAP: 143 (instead of 993)
SMTP: 587 (instead of 465)
You can view all your email settings in cPanel at any time.
You an also test if your email ports are open using Telnet.
If your email is hosted on our servers, it may be easier to contact Live Tech Support so they can review the email logs in real-time (while you are attempting to connect).
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.

Hello swapnil,
Thank you for your question. The important part of this returned message is as follows:
Unfortunately, messages from 18.104.22.168 weren't sent. Please contact your Internet service provider since part of their network is on our block list. You can also refer your provider to http://mail.live.com/mail/troubleshooting.aspx#errors.
This means your mail IP is most likely blacklisted
on the email host for firstname.lastname@example.com
I recommend contacting the mail host for lebenlab.com and advising them of this blacklisting.
Also, you may have to email this person (email@example.com) from a separate email address, and requesting that they whitelist you.
In the future, we have a Bounceback email tool that can help determine the cause behind returned emails.

I have cox for my email and noticing that some emails that people send me on cox I can get on my cell or on gmail (I have them going there currently since I am having this problem) but they are not coming in on my entourage. Like I stated only some emails this is happening with. What do I do to fix this?
2014-07-30 1:59 pm
Hello Lisa,
The first thing to check is make sure that you don't have multiple devices setup to check your Cox email account that are setup as POP, as the default behavior is to remove new messages from the server and download it locally to the mail client. So if you phone downloaded a new message, and then you check on your desktop in Entourage, that email would only be on your phone and no longer on the server for Entourage to view.
If certain people are unable to send email to your Cox account, more than likely they are sending from an email server that Cox has blacklisted. We have a guide on why mail servers get blacklisted that reviews why this can happen.
Unfortunately to get around these types of issues, typically the person sending you an email to your Cox account should receive an email bounce back stating the exact reason why their message wasn't delivered. If it was because the server they were sending from is on a blacklist, they would want to request a delisting from a blacklist.
If it's not due to the sender trying to send their email from a blacklisted server, they should still get an email bounce back, and here are the Cox email error codes they might receive if their message is being blocked for another reason.
You might need to contact Cox directly for more help, as looking at the Cox Postmaster guidelines, they have published these sending guidelines that some people trying to send to you might not be following.
What are Cox's sending limits?
Cox currently allows up to 5 simultaneous connections per sending IP address, and up to 100 messages per connection. However, regardless of these limits, Cox may throttle your sending ability based on your sender reputation. Cox's sending limits and policies are subject to change at any time. Cox will update this website when changes are made.
Please let us know if you had any further questions at all.

Thanks a million! Until I found your post, I went for hours searching without finding a fix for mail stuck in Outbox problem in Outlook 2010+Windows 8. You're the best!!
2014-07-17 11:33 am
I am experiencing a weird problem. all of a sudden all our e-mails at the office stopped working. You press send and rceive and it keeps asking for the password. funny enough we tried anothe ISP and everything worked. my question what made the e-mails to stop with my primary ISP since we tested with them and they are not blocking any ports and the public IP they gave us is not blacklisted anywhere. I am suspecting our hosting company but why would the e-mail work with another ISP.
Please give me your views and help.
2014-07-17 11:49 am
Hello Mike,
Thank you for your question. We are happy to help, but since it could be several things we would need additional information.
Have you contacted your email host to see if they rotated/changed passwords for your email accounts? Sometimes we are forced to do this when we suspect a compromised/hacked account.
Also, make sure there aren't any issues with your account, such as a missed billing date, or expired credit card?
If your host has Webmail, have you tried to login there?
What domain is having trouble? Have you checked to make sure it hasn't expired? You can see the expiration date via Whois lookup.
When you setup the test email account, are you using the same ports? There are typically 2 ports you can use for incoming, and 2 for outgoing (they are listed in your email settings).
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,
2014-07-17 12:12 pm
Thanks John for your immediate responce and below are my answers:
The host company did not rotate passwords or stop our account for any financial or late bill. Also the domain does not expire before November.
Please bear in mind that if we use another ISP everything is working normal. I just want to identify what would be the issue since the ISP did not block anything.
2014-07-17 12:36 pm
Hello Mike,
I am happy to help, but I really need additional information to help troubleshoot the problem.
When you say you used another ISP(Internet Service Provider) what do you mean. (To me, using another ISP would be like changing from a @comcast email address to @timewarner email address.) In this case if you are at an office where Comcast is the ISP, you may be able to only connect to Comcast via Port 25.
Did you perform a Telnet test to verify the Ports are not blocked? If not, how did you confirm the ports were not blocked?
Do you have Webmail, are you able to login there?
Once again, when you setup the test email account, are you using the same ports? There are typically 2 ports you can use for incoming, and 2 for outgoing (they are listed in your email settings).
Since it is asking for the password it sounds like it is hitting the server, but the username or password credentials are not verifying. Have you contacted your email host to confirm they see you connecting to the server in the Mail logs?
The next step would be reviewing your DNS (specifically your MX record) to ensure it is pointed to the right server. Then, performing a Ping and Traceroute to your mailservers, to see if there is a network issue in route to the server.
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,

Hello Corey,
We looked specifically for the time of the error message above in the mail log. Then we identified the user sending the message. When we looked in mail accounts for that domain, the user does NOT exist. This is why the message could not be sent. The message is looking for "moe@domain_name.com".
Arnel C.
2014-07-10 6:31 pm
I appreciate you looking into this as I do not have access to the servers at InMotionHosting and am just a "middle man" if you will. I could only verify the user existed on my end.
However, the user email@example.com exists on the server NOT hosted with InMotionHosting. The sender is firstname.lastname@example.com from the other server and the recipient is firstname.lastname@example.com on the InMotionHosting server.
Without saying specifics over this forum, are you able to see if the other user above exists? If not, I will have the owner of the account contact support directly with the same information as above.
2014-07-10 6:44 pm
The error that we are seeing is in regards to mail being sent from the server, and it specifies "moe" as the sender. Since that user did not exist, then it could not be sent. The other user you mentioned does not exist either.
Arnel C.
2014-07-10 2:36 pm
I'm experiencing the error listed in the original post. Below I am including my SmarterMail delivery logs and the telnet test to the server using InMotionHosting mail services.
We have multiple domains using servers with another Hosting company and multiple domains using InMotionHosting. NONE of the domains between the two host are able to send or receive mail at this point in time.
Email addresses were renamed in logs below as well as IP addresses were partially removed.
**The IP listed as 2XX.1XX.1XX.2XX is the server with InMotionHosting.**

From the information provided, it appears that you are trying to authenticate as a user that does not exist. Ensure that your software is properly configured to authenticate as the full email address, and that the email address that you are sending from is fully created on the server.
2014-07-10 3:37 pm
All users exist on each server.
Mail programs are using proper SMTP authentication based off the above recommendations and have full email addresses as users with corresponding passwords.

Error 17099 is a common issue for outlook Mac 2011 as well as its ancestor version Entourage. Apart from issue in account setting, a corrupted email of sent item is another reason for problematic situation. In this context, you need to repair backup file of Mac 2011. This repair process can be done through advanced OLM repair software.

Thanks Russell !
Let me know about valuable reference i.e. related to Error 17099 ?

Hello Marry,
This seems to be a common problem with Mac mail users. In the official Microsoft forums, they advised to make sure nothing is stuck in the Out box.
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.

Hello . How's it going today . So listen i heard that this site hold the answer to so many email problems many are having problems with & are also looking for solutions to help solve the problem . Well so am i . you see i've been having trouble with some emails i've been sending abroad to some firends of mine in amreica & Bournemouth & maybe austrailia to . you see the emails i've been sending them from my yahoomail have been coming out crippled & not so easy to read on there side . The purpose to all this is that is there a way to send an email through to someone without it coming out crippled & not someasy to read on the other side like america , bournmouth ,austrailia . Can the thunderbird browser software or windows live mail.com help with that . please i really need with this problem . Any answer you grant me will be help full.
2014-07-06 4:21 pm
Hello Daniel,
It depends what you mean by your emails coming through crippled. Do the emails make it through to your friends, but they aren't displaying the proper content at all, or just certain parts?
More than likely you'll want to remove any signature or any formatting at all from your Yahoo account if that is causing the issues. If you setup an email account in Thunderbird then that should also help.
- Jacob
2014-07-11 9:00 am
Hey . So let me get this straight . the reason why when i send an email to someone abroad to america or london . It comes crippled & not easy to read because of the way different servers from different companies work . Or is it the other way around like when you're using for instance mozilla thunderbird you have to adjust a few things in the outgoing server (SMTP) authentication & then type something like this firstname.lastname@example.com to firstname.lastname@example.com in order for the emails you send to go through & then come out okay & not crippled on the other side . Give me the full details to know that either i'm right or not about the idea .
2014-07-11 9:30 am
There are many reasons why mail may fail to send. Could you provide us with the specific error you are receiving?
2014-07-11 5:34 pm

2014-07-11 6:03 pm
Hello Daniel,
The problem you're seeing is still vague because we cannot view your mail logs or see any specific error messages that may be occurring with your email. If you have an account with us, then please provide a domain name so that we can look at your emails and see what's happening.
Mail that is sent is NOT changed by the delivery. It may have been written in a particular language, or character set that people receiving it are not able to view properly. OR, it may be that you're encoding the message (which can be done for security), and the message is not being coded on the receiving end. Encoding a message is done purposefully for privacy/security, so it would depend on the email client that you're using.
When you make the email, are you using a specific email client? For example, are you using Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird to write email and then send it? If so, it may depend on the settings you are using.
If you require further assistance on this issue, please provide us a little more information and then we can look into it further.

Hi . it's me again .
okay well it's like this . first i was sending the emails to those who i mentioned live in america & london through yahoomail.com & hotmail.com . And the email addresses all had different features which i'm about to share with you .
And truth be told . yes . i am now using the mozilla thunderbird .
So if there's anything you can tell me & show me through any idea or details you can explain & send me will be help full . Cause i really want my emails to go through to these new friends i've made okay & clear & okay to read instead of crippled & encoded on the other side when they recieve them .
2014-07-13 1:54 pm
Hello Daniel,
What I hear is that you are using a ThunderBird client to send from either your yahoo or hotmail account to various different people using various different email providers. They all receive the email in some weird alternate format so they are unable to read it. If I am correct so far, it seems the constant in this is the Thunderbird client. What happens when you send an email from the direct interface of either Yahoo or hotmail to one of the people? Is the email still jumbled?
Kindest Regards,
Scott M
2014-07-14 8:51 am
The email addresses of the people from abroad that i received . which i am using on yahoomail.com or hotmail.com . are going through okay . but are coming out on there side crippled or maybe encoded in a way that can't be read . My question from the beginning was that if i where to use mozilla thunderbird & these email addresses in it would work will the email mesaages i send go through & come out clear & easy to read instead of encoded or crippled . if that is the case then i wish to know the neseccasry deatils on how to make that happen . And more importantly what to adjust & set correctly in the mozilla thunderbird so that the emails i send go through okay .
2014-07-14 10:17 am
Hello Daniel,
I have never seen nor experienced the error you are describing. We are just trying to find out through deduction, trial and error, and educated guessing. If the emails are being sent by you from both hotmail and yahoo directly (without a client) and coming out garbled on all recipients Thunderbird will not likely help. It sounds as if something is going wrong during the creation of the email, even on both email providers. You can attempt to send a test email to us at firstname.lastname@example.com Please be sure to reply with the subject used so we can find it as we get thousands of emails a day.
Is the email you are sending in simple text, no attachments, and in English?
Kindest Regards,
Scott M

Hello . Again . It's me .
look i don't normally like to trouble any one or body to much on things that are maybe nearly out of there limits & understandings . but when i'm looking for answers & a way to fix something i need help in doing that from any experienced professional that might know something about something . And when i asked & showed & explained to you the problem i'm having i was hoping you could explain to me in a few details on what to do like how to adjust the mozilla thunderbird email sending settings & see if what i sent through this time to those i want to from abroad will recieve my email messages okay & clear to read . And not come out like this - eBIK gmBCFIK iU diPR amqzGP jEG lqvFH qxGN BJT iBQ pCGPY uxN bP tBIQVW ntwAW xCGZ ABP ciJ on there side & not easy to read . So i'm asking you again if you know any other way for me to send emails messages to my friends abroad with out them coming looking like this - eBIK gmBCFIK iU diPR amqzGP jEG lqvFH qxGN BJT iBQ pCGPY uxN bP tBIQVW ntwAW xCGZ ABP ciJ on there side please tell me okay . i really need an answer or a solution to this problem .

Hello Mr. Roberts,
We (the Community Support Team) have had years of experience in dealing with email servers and email clients and none of us have really seen the problem you're having. I've seen when there are issues with looking at an encrypted email, or one that's in a different format. Can you please specify how you are sending the email? What client/program are you using? Do you have any specific settings? I have a Yahoo, Microsoft, Gmail, Facebook, and some other types email addresses that I can use for testing. If you want, send me an email: firstname.lastname@example.com. I can look at the email and see if there's anything odd with the content.
At this point, we just need some information about how you're sending email, and an example of the content of the email itself.
Kindest regards,
Arnel C.
2014-07-15 7:57 am
Hello . what do you mean send you an email sample email@example.com .
Do you mean something like this in full . A) firstname.lastname@example.com
B) email@example.com
If this what you mean by what you're telling me you need inorder to find out the problem then please let me know what progress you've made in solving the problem .
Oh & just so you know i've been using yahoo.com & sometimes hotmail.com & Gmail.com to send email messages through these email addresses abroad before giving the mozilla thunderbird a try .
2014-07-15 9:15 am
Hello Daniel,
Arnel means to send him an email to email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com the same as you are sending to your friends. By receiving the email and taking a look at it, it may give some clues as to what the issue is.
To recap as to what you have described to us:
You send email from either Yahoo or Hotmail using NO client (Thunderbird) to send email to your friends on several different platforms. All emails are coming out garbled in the end. You want to know if Thunderbird will help keep the emails from being garbled.
Since more than one platform (Yahoo, hotmail, etc) is messing up the message and all recipients on different platforms are getting garbled messages, it sounds as if it may be the way the message is being created or sent.
Please send a test email to docs@inmotionhosting,com (be sure to tell us the Subject of the email so we can find it) so we can take a look at it. Also, please tell us more details about the message, is it in English? Is it all text? Or are you adding some sort of attachment to the email?
As you do not seem to be one of our customers, we are unable to check into the server, so we need you to tell us the details as we are flying blind otherwise.

2014-07-16 7:57 am
Hello Daniel,
We are just asking if you will send an email to us at the address email@example.com the same way you are sending it to your friends. This way we can see how it comes out on our side. If it comes out garbled, we may get another clue as to what is going on.

2014-06-30 8:57 am
Hello Tousep,
Thank you for your question. We are happy to assist you, but will need more information.
Are you using POP on both the phone and computer? It may be better to use IMAP on both devices, since it leaves the email on the server and is available on multiple devices.
Also, make sure your Outlook is updating regularly, you can set the update interval in the settings.
Also, make sure emails are not being caught by a spam filter or rule settings in Outlook.
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,

Hello Tousep,
The problem that you're facing is explained in the bounce-back error you're receiving:
553 sorry, your envelope sender is in my badmailfrom list (#5.7.1)
Their mail server is responding and letting you know that the mail server you're trying to mail, has your envelope sender in their badmailfrom list.
Meaning that either your email address, or your entire domain name has been added to a blacklist on the remote server side. You'd need to contact the person you're trying to send you email to via alternate means and ask them to remove you from their email filters.

hi Jacob,
I did't get you.whom i want to contact web hosting or domain people.Why they added our domain to blacklist???
2014-07-03 8:09 am
Hello touseep,
You will want to contact the people you are trying to email via either another email address, phone, etc. and ask them why your regular email address has been blacklisted. They may be willing and able to remove it so you can send email with that address once again.

for what it's worth -- had this problem and port 25 was NOT blocked. for reasons i haven't figured out everything worked beautifully after i switched the account from IMAP to POP3.
2014-06-23 12:13 pm
Hello ak,
Thank you for contacting us. If you were using Outlook/Office365, there is a known issue with IMAP that may have affected you.
Also, if there are a lot of emails in your inbox, IMAP can have performance issues. Archiving older emails can help.
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.

My law partner uses Round Cube for her email. She is having trouble sending emails from her Wiindow's based machine using Google Chrome. When she clicks "Send" it takes a long time before it acutally completes the sending of the email. We've done searches and some message board postings indicate that you should change some line of code in the configuration or registry settings, which is an operation beyond our level of technical competence. The problem occurs on multiple wifi networks, so this is not specific to any particular internet setting.
2014-06-11 11:38 am
Hello Joe,
Thank you for your question. If there are a lot of emails in her Inbox, it is possibly the cause; because it takes time to load and list all the emails.
Moving older emails to a separate folder, or deleting them can help with the load time.
Also, we can automatically archive her emails by month as a courtesy. Read about how our automated IMAP archiving works.
It may be helpful to contact Live Support at the time of the problem, so they can review the email logs in real-time.

The bounceback you posted says that you have sent too many emails in the last hour.

Hello Todd,
Sorry to hear about your email problems with Outlook. In looking at that error code you have reported, I'm seeing the following from Microsoft 550-553 errors:
"The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was '
If you read further, it basically says that some ISPs block email they mark or identify as unsolicited email (spam). The email is never delivered because of this issue. Since, you have given very little information (no email address or domain name), it's difficult for us to pinpoint the exact problem you are having. If you can provide more information then we can investigate the issue more thoroughly.
Please remember that posts on the support center are public. If you wish to handle this matter privately, then please submit a ticket for our technical support with further detail on the issue. A complete header from any bounces would be helpful as well as domain and specific email account information.

After not being able to send out mail for over a month I did a lot of research and found a solution that worked for me. Move all of your sent mail to another folder or delete the messages. Make sure your outgoing mail is set to the default settings. Your sent mail will only hold a limited amount of GB.

Hello pbear12,
Thank you for the information. Also, we can Auto Archive email for you.
This can really help IMAP users, since every time you connect it has to sync & list every single email.
Thank you,

I have some problems with outlook too, I have done about anything thats in my power to deal with this. I bought a domainname and made an outlook 2013 account, and when i try to log in to another pc or make a new account it does not work. So i now go to the mailsystem via the domainname, now i can receive messages but not send.
these are the errorcodes: Log onto incoming mailserver (IMAP): The IMAP server issued an unrecognized greeting.
and: Send test email message: the server responded: 421 Cannot connect to SMT
Also, on my site there is a very helpfull way of becoming a customer, just type your name and email, after that i would get a message with the potential customer, but ive tried and does not work. But everything works on the pc i first made the outlook account.

Hello Jawad,
Sorry to hear you're having problems with Outlook. It's difficult for us to determine the problem without specific information. If you have an account with us, then providing a domain name allows us to test the server to see if email operations are normal. Additionally, providing further details of the email server settings would also help to clarify the problem. Please provide us some further information and we would be happy to help.

Hello rajesh,
You will want to contact the owner of the list you are on. Sometimes it is a blacklist service, other times it is simply the owner of the receiving server itself. Contact them and ask how to get your email IP removed from the list so you can once again send emails.
Kindest Regards,

Anyone can help me.
i was using my 3 business emails on window live mail but Recently i have changed my hosting and recreate new emails with the same name but new email ids not working in window live. how to reconnect my emails to live mail and i dont want to lose my data..
Please help me..and sorry for bad english
2014-04-12 10:59 am
Hello gaurav, thanks for your comment.
If you've recently changed your hosting, then it's possible that the mail server settings you have in Windows Live are now incorrect. You might need to change your incoming mail server setting to match your new hosts requirements.
When you say the email ids are not working, do you mean you can't connect to the server and download any new mail at all? Or do you mean that you can connect and get new mail, but you've lost the ability to retrieve older messages for these accounts since switching hosting?

MS Outlook 2013 will not send messages, except Microsoft Outlook Test Messages.
I have tried changing ports for SSL and non-SSL as described on this page (and as directed by Jacob, thank you :)), I have tried using my IP address for the incoming and outgoing server, and I have tried having my mail directed through my server, but nothing works. I have spoken with the tech support people at Bluehost, but they couldn't help, either.
What is most confuising is that Test Messages are sent easily, but anything I try and send myself gets caught in the OUtbox and won't ever send.
I would really appreciate some help, please.

Hello Kerri,
I'm sorry to hear about your problem with sending emails. First, we unfortunately have no account information for your issue, so I can't test to see if there actually is a problem with your account. Also, if you're receiving email, then it's a good chance that there probably isn't anything wrong with the email server. You should check and see if you can send an email through the webmail client. Click on the link and it will bring you to a tutorial on using webmail. This way, you can check to see if your login credentials are actually causing the problem. If you are unable to login, then you should login to cPanel to edit the email account login info for the user you are using. FYI - you should be checking email using an account created with the email option in cPanel (not using the cPanel user name). An example of a cPanel user name would look something like: example5. The email address you're using to setup Outlook should look like this: email@example.com. For more information, please see How to create an email account.
I hope this helps to resolve your problem. Please be aware that you can also contact our live technical support team via phone/email/chat 24/7 for immediate support.
Kindest regards,
Arnel C.

Thanks for the tips, but my IMAP email settings are correct. I can log into webmail without issue; I just can't send from my IMAP account through Outlook 365. Any other suggestions or resources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again :)

IMAP is used for receiving mail, while SMTP is used for sending mail. Do you happen to be using port 25 to send mail? Your ISP may be blocking the port so I recommend trying port 587.

I am encountering a similar problem as Kerri had. I am using Outlook 2013 on Windows 8 with a Comcast.net email account. The email works fine on other computers. The email settings are as follows:
Account type: POP3
Incoming mail server: mail.comcast.net
Outgoing mail server: smtp.comcast.net
Incoming server POP3 port: 995 (SSL encryption box checked)
Outgoing server SMTP port: 587 (TLS encryption - also tried Auto and had no luck)
I am able to receive emails and REPLY TO EMAILS.
I cannot send a new email. It will go into the outbox and then appear in the sent items folder, but will not actually go to the email address. I've tried to send HTML, Rich Text, and Plain Text
The test email does send a proper test to myself.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
2014-04-22 7:52 am
Thanks for further information on the topic. When sending to another individual, does it actually reach them but stay in the outbox for you or does it never reach the recipient? Have you checked with Comcast to see if they are getting anything on their end at all? They may be able to provide the missing piece of the puzzle from the mail logs on their servers.
We also answered a similar question, where a user was able to send from Outlook, but could not receive any emails. That answer may be able to assist you as well.

Hi Jeff,
I carried out the steps outlined in the above article to test port 25 and it passed the test at the time and still does so now. I tried port 587 just for giggles and got identical results.
I spent upwards of 10 hours in direct connections with the folks at Malware Vytes ... they were extraordinarily helpful ... together we found all kinds of malicious "PUP" programs placed by advertisers to track my browsing and other behaviour, stuff which had slipped throuigh normal security precautions, and we were able to outst them. for awhile this still did not seem to repair the problem hwever at the last minute a security update patch from Microsoft was installed spontaneously and afterward my normal functionality returned.
Thanks for your attention,
2014-03-24 5:24 pm
Thanks for letting us know that everything worked out okay. Please let us know if you require any further assistance in the future.

port 25 is not blocked. settings are correct. email suddenly stopped being able to send, 5 days ago but still receives. technical support says its not their problem. comcast says its not their problem. have cleaned up my machine and expunged all manner of advertising filth and any other possible offender. still have problem. what to do?
2014-03-24 9:31 am
If your settings are correct, I am almost certain that Comcast is blocking port 25 as they are known to do so. They have even stated it within their own site as well. I recommend changing your sending port to 587 to get around the issue.
2014-12-11 6:07 pm
Thanks Jeff. Helped me a lot. Before I can receive but can't send emails. Now, I can send emails from my mac. Thanks guys!

Hello macarena,
Do you have an account with us? You might have better luck contacting technical support to resolve your issues.
Are you getting a specific error when trying to send or receive mail? This might help us in pointing you in the right direction to something in our email troubleshooting knowledge base that might resolve your issues.

I am trying to email my sister her email is @citymail.org I can read hers but she can't read mine have also got a cousin with same email and the same thing happens
2014-07-18 12:09 pm
Hello Royston,
Thank you for your question. We are happy to help, but need some additional information to help troubleshoot the problem.
What is happening to the emails when they send?
Are they failing or being returned? Can you provide the returned message?
Are your cousins checking their Spam box to make sure it is not being flagged by a filter or rule?
Have you contacted your email host at the time you are sending? This would allow them to review the email logs to see if they are being delivered.
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,

2014-07-21 2:48 pm
Hello Royston,
Thank you for the additional information. Can you provide an example of the jumbled text?
Do you have access to webmail so you can try and send an email from there as a test?
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,
2014-07-18 8:05 pm
Hello Royston,
Sorry for the continuing problems. Unfortunately, we need a little more to go on than what you've said so far. I think you're saying that when you send emails to your sister she is not able to read them. Are you able to receive her emails in Gmail okay? Can you try forwarding emails from your sister into Gmail and do they work okay? Try that with the CC option in the email. It doesn't appear you're our customer, so you may need to contact your email administrator with your current host if the problem continues.
