How Can I Send E-Mail?
21 Answers
When I am at home I can both receive and send emails on my ipad.
Now that I am away from home I can only receive mail, i.e. I cannot send.
I have received a message that I want to forward on, but I get an error message "cannot send mail" and that a copy has been placed in my outbox because the recipient "[email protected]" has been rejected by the server.
What do I need to do, please?

Ok. Many moons ago My dial-up connection ISP was Freeserve. The "something" in my email address became "fsnet". Freeserve became Orange, who I think now may even be EE. However, I switched from dial-up with Freeserve to broadband from TalkTalk about 9 years ago. Within the past 12 months, after numerous reliability problems, I moved to Primus broadband at home. I am currently away from home with my wifi connected to my host's BT wifi.
I have retained the same email address for the past 10 years.

Ok, go into settings, mail, contacts & calendars, scroll down through mail until you see default account, note what it is, scroll back up to the top where it says accounts and select the account you just noted. Scroll that down to advanced and select mail, scroll that down to outgoing mail server and see what that says, tap on the server and see if you get any others, if there are no others or they are switched off you will need to either switch them on or add a new one, if you have enabled your Appleid you should already have an iCloud SMTP server defined so you should be able to use that.
Hmm, in mail, contacts,calendars where you see the default account what does it say underneath in smaller text, if mail is enabled it should say so, if it isn't I'm a bit stumped too. As your mail is coming in somehow you need to see which account it is coming in on and then try following that through to find the outgoing (SMTP) server
