I have problems sending email (IMAP and POP accounts)
If you are able to receive email messages but cannot send them, try the
following:
Turn on authentication (see
Set up email when automatic setup
Many service providers require authenticated access, or ESMTP, to use
their SMTP servers for outgoing mail.
Enter the name of a different outgoing mail server for sending mail (see
Set up email when automatic setup
companies, require that you have an Internet connection to their network
to send email through their servers. In this case, you can almost always
receive email from these accounts, but if you want to send email, you
must send it through another server. Check with your email service
provider for the correct outgoing mail server name.
After I receive messages, older messages disappear from my
Inbox
When email sync takes place, the last three days' worth of email messages
are downloaded from your mail server to your Inbox. All messages older
than three days are removed from your Inbox; they are not deleted on the
server, however.
You can change the setting to download only one or two days' worth of
messages. If you select one of these options, any messages older than one
or two days are deleted from your Inbox. You can also change the setting to
download all messages regardless of the date, in which case all messages
continue to appear in your Inbox (see
