There is a lot of very useful information from Microsoft but SharePoint Alerts are counter-intuitive on a lot of levels. The number one rule when dealing with them is to never assume that they follow a predictable pattern because they do not and will surprise you every time. They also love to work perfectly for 100 days straight, then for no discernible ...

The guide mentions there being a delay between sending your email and seeing the document show up. I assume it is a timer job that performs the email pickup tasks. Is the SharePoint timer service running? It is called SharePoint 2010 Timer If the service IS running, are you able to see your job running in central admin? No jobs should be running right now ...

The timer job that picks up mail runs about every 5 minutes or so, so you should not see the email sit there for long. If it does just sit there, and the Timer service is running, then the problem may be that SharePoint does not recognize the TO address as an email-enabled document library. Make sure that you have configured the incoming email domain to ...

On a multi-server farm, be sure the "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Incoming E-Mail" service is running on the same server you're using for the SMTP service, presumably one of your front end servers. Check this in Central Admin-System Settings-Manage Services on Server and cycle through your servers on the top-right. In my case the above mentioned service ...

This seems kinda "dirty" but it works. http://www.delphi-ts.com/blogs/lozzi/post/2011/02/09/Sending-SharePoint-emails-through-alternate-ports.aspx Basically setting up a proxy for sending mail, pointing SharePoint to the proxy (standard port), and allowing the proxy to relay to the correct destination port.

Make sure you increase the logging options so you are capturing all the data with SNMP. A quick check is to telnet into your SMTP server and send a message directly to the GMAIL address and see if it is received. If you do this from Win7/8, 2008/2012 box you may need to install the telnet client first. telnet SERVERNAME 25 helo mail ...

You need to have SMTP server installed on the dev box so that it can receive email from the Lotus Notes box. Also, Lotus Notes box needs to know where to send the mail. So if you have developer@mydevbox.com as the recipient URL, that mydevbox.com needs to resolve to your dev box. I haven't tried this myself, but you might be able to just use HOSTS file on ...

Salve! I wanted to set up email too, for my Sharepoint. In my configuration, I used hMailServer. I realize you didn't mention hMailServer in your post, but I want to use it as an example because it represents a third-party mail server that is not Exchange, and has nothing (as you wished) to do with Active Directory. I am going to assume you have followed ...

There is a bug where, under certain conditions (usually related to 2007-2010 upgrade or when a server name changes) a list will become 'stuck' where it cannot receive email. The fix is fortunately extremely simple and painless : Go to the list properties and select 'Incoming Email Settings' Copy the current email address to someplace else, like Notepad++ ...

"What is strange is that the newsletter is still being received by one recipient, who is using an email address with our company domain." Are some of the email addresses outside your domain? SMTP Servers can have different rules for what they will do with internal and external addresses. I would start by using an SMTP Test tool (you can also use ...

You need to make sure you correctly configured Incoming Email in SharePoint. On one of your WFE you need to configure SMTP. POP3 is not needed as the WFE serves as relay mainly. See here for a guide http://weblogs.asp.net/jeffwids/archive/2010/08/16/configuring-incoming-email-for-sharepoint-2010-foundations.aspx Than you need to enable calendars to receive ...
