Cannot get mail

Message on the iPhone 6: "mail.optonline.net" e-mail server is unresponsive.  Check that you entered the correct account in the e-mail settings.

I don't know what can be wrong with my settings, or why all of a sudden I get this message.  My other email account is a gmail account, that works.  My main account is with optimum.  How can I re set to continue to get messages from this account?

  • Outlook: "cannot get mail" "cannot connect to the server.

    April 6 at 7:00 PM CST, my iPhone 5 running iOS stopped syncing with my Microsoft Outlook account 9.3.1.

    I did have problems with my iPhone sync with my Outlook email over the past 5 years so far.

    My Outlook account is to these servers-

    web mail:
    https://blu183.mail.live.com/

    for Windows Live Mail 2012:
    https://mail.Services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/sync.aspx

    I tried to delete my Outlook account from my iPhone and re-establishment and the account Outlook 'checks' correctly - but this does not solve the problem.

    The iPhone keeps displaying a pop-up message:
    "Cannot get mail" "cannot connect to the server.

    My iPhone is syncing correctly with my Gmail accounts and iCloud.

    Also, I created my Outlook account on iPad to my daughter who is running iOS 8.1.2 and I have the same problem.

    This seems to be a situation of the Apple servers, do not sync with Microsoft servers.

    Thank you

    It seems that Outlook is to have questions, not only with iPhones but W10, see this thread:

  • Girl just got a new Iphone6s 9.3.1 and can't access his e-mail.  Gets the message "Cannot Get Mail the username or password of"Gmail"is incorrect."  Obviously, we did something wrong... anyone knows how to fix this?

    My daughter just upgraded to an iPhone 6s.  She is not able to receive or send emails... Besides, she can't still access his Messages.  Earlier, the phone wants to switch to 9.3.5... will it solve this problem of e-mail?

    Go ahead and upgrade to same 9.3.5 so that will probably not solve the problem of electronic mail (additional security is important). Then try to reset your email account. First close your Mail application completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and drag the email preview pane up until it disappears from the display. Then go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > find your e-mail provider, click the account, and the blow to remove. Then restart the unit. Then go to settings > mail... and to add the account.

  • Cannot get mail username or password yahoo account is incorrect

    The above message began yesterday. I can connect to Yahoo Mail in a browser and my MacBook Pro and iPhone are very happy. Just this iPad now won't play.

    By going into settings for this account Yahoo, that I have to enter the password. Do this with the password that works everywhere else returns

    Email Mismatch

    The e-mail address entered does not match your account!

    The iPad is the faulty part, Yahoo is fine with the same password everywhere.

    As part of this pain because my ID Apple corresponds to this e-mail address?

    It all started yesterday was working fine.

    Come magicians wonder how to make Apple iPad behave?

    I tried to reboot several times.

    The e-mail account receives an email saying I have connected from iPad.

    Try going into settings, messages, contacts and calendars, then delete your yahoo account, come out, go back the and add the info and see if that helps.

    Yahoo sometimes does things and the best way to solve it is just to do it again. You shouldn't lose any mail. I had to do in my account several times over the years

  • cannot get mail out with comcast using windows 7, outlook 2010.

My emails are coming with the help of the non-comcast e-mail address.  However, I can't send emails. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • All of a sudden get mail entering, but cannot mail not have checked the settings

    Thanks to your volunteers!

    Up to late last night, my outgoing email was working fine.

    Then when I tried to send a complex message that referenced multiple e-mail addresses (do not know if this is part of the question), I could not send the message. The process stopped at about 47% of fact, so I eventually canceled.

    Since then, whenever I try to send via Thunderbird the system times out with the following error box message:
    "The message sending failed. The message cannot be sent because the connection to the server of SMTP mail.twc.com expired. Try again or contact your network administrator. »

    I have confirmed my outgoing mail settings, including the port 587 with technical support Time Warner Cable, and I have confirmed that my mail into and out of Time Warner works very well in their WebMail.

    I searched files *.eml under Temp by a score of Trend Micro for Thunderbird taking over 30 seconds to send and have found no delete.

    Any other ideas?

    Thank you!

    At least, he confirmed that their server was not the problem (it is running etc.) and make sure that these settings are correct and up to date is one of the steps mozillaZine told me to do the theme of "Cannot send mail", sub-heading of basic troubleshooting.

    During this time I find another piece of advice Thunderbird online (I note where) who told me to run Thunderbird without addons, and I managed to find where in Thunderbird to disable them.

    I was then unable to get Thunderbird to run at all (by clicking on the icon did nothing) BUT when I rebooted by computer, I was back in business and a moment later successfully send email - and very quickly as in ancient time before sending had begun to slow down.

    So I'm all set. This can help others, maybe, so I'm documenting.

    In response to your comment, it's a shame that so many help desk people are forced to stick to a script, isn't. But I found some very useful from time to time when the problem did turn out to be at an end.

    Please read and respond, in any case.

    About the prior Toad Hall "Windows default" comment. That was really the key to the problem - windows by default does not work unless ALL the boxes on Thunderbird are checked. I had used TB along right but wanted to send a few photos and the default TB has not been recognized, though even I had used for a few months. Where discover the box the letters on TB has been verified not a made only of the disappearance of the problem. Tried the default Windows repeatedly route to nothing does not.

    I ran all virus time and time again and cannot get rid of this e-mail worm that continues to move forward, what I can do now, stop using hotmail?

    Hello

    Why do you think you have an e-mail worm? If you can't name it?

    If someone is Spoofing emails that appear to come from you then they probably never
    had access to your e-mail account. Instead, they have either a copy of your contacts
    list or just an email from you or one of you where you were one of the recipients. Those
    could be gleaned either your computer, the computer of a friend, or hacking
    any site or intercept an email on your behalf or to you (you may not be the main)
    (beneficiary).

    Once they have this information there is nothing you can do to avoid that they don't
    send usurped messages. Warn your friends that is happening and they
    can be entitled to install rules such as parodies are treated as SPAM or JUNK
    mail.

    I've even seen usurped by email that appears to be from a valid user name however
    This name doesn't have an e-mail account on the mail system used in parody.
    As SpiritX - AT - realmail.com may be a valid account, however, parody used
    SpiritX - AT - wrongmail.com. The latter could still be considered an email address valid
    SpiritX if it was allowed through JUNK and JUNK e-mail filtering. (The - AT - has been used
    instead of so that those addresses would not be filtered by auto responses.
    as if by magic.)

    ============================================================

    Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your password by e-mail.

    The reason why you want to do this is to make sure no more hacking your computer is
    still in effect (if it has been hacked). You have changed the password once but I would
    Change it again after these checks.

    It is possible for a person to send the email that 'seems' to be of your
    account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
    were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone
    who receives the e-mails to check the header to see where he is actually sent by and
    NOT only the answer to the address.

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
    the regular windows when you can.

    This kind of behavior is very often due to antivirus.  You are using.  If its McAfee or Norton get rid of them completely.   There are others who are also incompatible.  Everything you try, make sure that the analysis of e-mail is disabled.   You can also try to repair the database and see if that helps (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  And see also www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • I'm in the Mexico and can browse the web but cannot get the roadrunner site to open the webmail server to allow access to e-mail.

    I'm in the Mexico and can browse the web but cannot get the roadrunner site to open the webmail server to allow access to e-mail. I worked around it through another proxy server, but navigation is a pain. does anyone know a solution to this problem? Roadrunner denies that it doesn't clog and so did the modem service here which is telmex?

    [moved]

    I had the same problem 2 weeks while in the Mexico.  I contacted the support TWC and the person to whom I spoke said he had to unlock something.  When he did, all my mail came in Outlook in the spam folder.  It was OK because I got my mail.

    I moved to a different House and now have the same problem again.  I've contacted support TWC and not had much luck. The second level support person and I spent more than an hour, the call of the Mexico using Vontage.  He has not found anything by the previous call that guided him by setting this time.  He said that he would open a ticket and call me in the next 24 to 48 hours.

    Is it reminds and solves the problem, I'll post how it was corrected.

  • Cannot get the password or re-establish the link. What should I do?

    Cannot get the password or re-establish the link. What should I do? Reset email is never sent. This master password"... How do you define? I'm locked out of Thunderbird. Help

    Maybe he's trying reset Pasword Thunderbird Master as I'm doing? I copy the code and paset in the console tools\error and press Evaluate. I wonder if I want to reset the Master PW and I say yes, then I get a saying that the Master PW has been reset. Maybe he's looking for an e-mail to tell him that the IPL has been rest to? But the problem is, nothing happens when the password has been reset, msg is sent. TB continues to request the password. I have not changed my PW and when I enter the good PW, TB does not recognize. And reset the PW Master does nothing but generate Pop up messages. It's very frustrating. The information in the help files are not accurate, or the code provided does not work although it generates messages indicating that the IPL has been reset.

  • Cannot get ePrint or other features on CM1415fnw to work

    Cannot get ePrint or other features on CM1415fnw to work. I can see the printer on the network, proceed to its IP via the wireless, added to ePrint, but apps and some other features do not work. As he never printed the ePrint instructions after that I clicked on the touch screen repeatedly. He just flashed to another screen then returned to the home screen, like nothing happened. I tried print article USA today money through the Apps but it is there for 2-3mins then finally said that he can't reach the web. However, I have on the web right now writing this review from my laptop which is connected to the same wireless router. I sent an email with a few lines of text to the ePrint address, that I was able to locate on the menu diagnastoics by going to the printers IP address. The e-mail never printed but ePrint site shows as pending and that the printer is online. This whole experience has been a joke. I am a network engineer and I know that's not my network. I don't use a proxy and my wireless router and ISP are large open. No firewall or any other nonsense it hangs. It's just bad software/hardware to HP. I also confirmed that the printer has the latest version of the firmware which is 20101125.

    The idea of having this printer works with all features, it comes with would be great. Any thoughts?

    I think I solved the problem. You can't have a USB connection and a network connection to the printer at the same time. I had a USB connection to the laptop and a Wi - Fi connection to printer. I unplugged the USB and then unplugged the printer. I leave a little clear all memory volatile and plugged in. After letting it go online and get it is the IP address of the wireless router, I was able to print to it by sending my email through the connection wireless address ePrint. I am also now able to print from Apps.

    Conclusion, HP needs to fix their firmware in the next version or work with both USB and wireless/wired network connection or provide some sort of pop-up warning that connections are not supported at the same time.

  • Cannot get rid of the BIOS password

    Bought an ACER Aspire E1 from an EBAY of ACER store about a year ago. A few weeks ago, I started it and quickly received a BIOS PASSWORD entry. Since that time, the laptop was absolutely worthless. I guess I tried the hardware, software, battery and all I could think of to fix the problem. I tried the MICROSOFT forums. ACER, ASK.COM Forums and forums Forums, forums, forrums and other forums that I could think of to try to resolve the unknown BIOS password. Thanks UEFI.

    I guess short of replacement of the EEPROM on the motherboard (don't think even that would help) which I'd be suspicious to do.

    Cannot get rid of the BIOS password.

    If I contact the ACER Support, they say that it's a hardware problem. I tried (as suggested by ACER support), bringing to STAPLES, BESTBUY, FRYS ELECTRONICS, OFFICE MAX, DATA DOCTORS, and several other 'Repair computer facilities' nothing works.

    IN a WORD, it's a PIECE OF a $400 trash...
