Cannot send email from icloud account from mac

cannot send email from icloud account from mac running 10.8.2

The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

TS3276 Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
Select Password authentication and add your details.
You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.

TS4002 I cant send email via icloud account. I have a BT router for vision. Can anyone help please

I cant send email via icloud account. I have a BT router for vision

Thanks for the suggestion - it turned out that it was actually my workplace's network that automatically blocks external SMTP servers (for some security reason), so the email(s) sent perfectly once I went home and connected to May home network. Annoying!

I cannot send email on my iMac from Mac Mail. The account shows that it is offline. I've recently updated to Yosemite. I can, however, receive email. What can I do to fix this problem?

I cannot send email on my iMac. I have recently updated to Yosemite. I don't know if that is the problem or not. However, I can receive email on all of my email accounts, but cannot send. It shows that my accounts are offline. How do I fix this?

Have you received any tips on how to fix the problem yet?

Cannot send email using port 465 from a network other than my ISP

I cannot send email from my ISP POP mail account when I am in a different network (e.g. when traveling). This happens with my iPad and my iPhone. However, I can send mail if I turn off wifi and use 3G. The outgoing port is 465.
Using my .mac account I don't have any problems sending mail using wifi or 3G.
I have tried adding smtp.mac.com or smtp.me.com as a secondary server to my POP account but it does not work. The secondary server disappears after I add it.

Contact your isp and ask them what the smtp settings are for when you are traveling. Most isps have different settings for sending email when off their network.

After update, cannot send email via any accounts! Please help!

First of all, thank you for reading my thread.
After updating few days ago, I cannot send any email via any acounts. I have .mac email and yahoo email. But I still can receive emails. I have checked message borad, it said "Some members experienced difficulty sending .Mac Mail via computer email applications from 3:30 am to 6 am Pacific Time. Normal service has been restored." But mine hasn't!!! It has been almost a week!!
The erro message says "cannot send email using this mail server, please choose one of the following server and retry again"
My english is not very good, I hope you understand my question and any help would be appreciated, thank you again.

Thank you very much for your reply!
This is what I got:
PING smtp.mac.com (17.250.248.45): 56 data bytes
--- smtp.mac.com ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
PING mail.mac.com (17.250.248.152): 56 data bytes
--- mail.mac.com ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
It seems the problem is the server, but it has been many days, I don't think apple haven't had notice this.
What should I do next?

Can't send email from iCloud accounts on Mac

A few hours ago I couldn't login and receive email to my icloud accounts this appears to have been fixed but I still cant send email. I've checked all passwords in preferences.
I can login to icloud via the browser and send email Ok.
I can send email from my iCloud accounts on my iPhone.
But can't send mail using Sparrow or Mac Mail on the desktop.
This all seems to have happened since I installed the latest security update.

Using smtp.mail.me.com - also tried smtp.me.com
SSL yes
port 587
SMTP Authentification Yes
Security SLS/TLS - also tried STARTTLS
User full **@me.com email address - also tried user name without @me.com
I have spoken to apple support this afternoon and we tried the variations shown above.
Support told me to wait for a day and try again!
After the iCloud authentication problem last night I changed all my passwords I wonder if there is an SMTP problem at me.com perhaps not reading the updated passwords?
I'll try and use the old passwords later.

I cannot sign into my iCloud account from my MAC. In the System Preferences I have two mail accounts iCloud

I cannot sign into iCloud Mail from my MAC. I have tried everything that I can think of to change in System Preferences, even deleted the mailbox and reinstalled it ..... nothing works. It is fine on my iPhone 4S!!! Please help ... about to go crazy! There seem to be two accounts one from MobileMe (mail) and iCloud (calendar and contacts find my phone). I have tried moving the mail to iCloud and unticking it on MobileMe but it will not allow me to submit it!

Cannot send email on my iPhone from my MobileMe account...help?

Every time I try to send a message in my MobileMe account on my iPhone 3G, this message pops up - "Cannot Send Mail - The connection to the outgoing server "smtp.me.com" failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars." I've checked the smtp to make sure it's correct, and I changed the Server Port to 587 as suggested by Apple. Is it something to do with the IMAP Path Prefix? This has been happening since I purchased my iPhone in February while it was running OS 2.0, and I have since upgraded to 3.0 and 3.0.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When using the MobileMe account preset to create the account, the SMTP server is created with 587 as the SMTP server port, which can't be changed when using the MM account preset to create the account.

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

I cannot access my old iCloud account from Ireland on my new iPad in Canada

I had an iPhone 4 in Ireland a number of years ago with an iCloud account. The kids have been using that phone for games since we moved to Canada. I now have an iPad and I am trying to access my music from iTunes from the iPad but I am unable. There appears to be password issues that I cannot resolve possibly to do with different credit cards and now living in a new country.
I Have tried resetting the iPad and accessing through the iCloud account and even though I have amended credit cards details it appears to revert back to the previous card and password which I cannot remember. Help please

What are you trying to look up on your mobile me account? You should be syncing mobile me e mails, contacts, ect. You have to set them up.

Cannot send email to Smart Group from Address Book

I created several Smart Groups in Address Book but I can't use any of them to send email. When I right-click the group name and choose Send Email, it opens my default email program (Thunderbird) and puts only the name of the Smart Group into the To: field, not the actual addresses.
If I try to actually send the message, I get the error that (name of group) "is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the email."
What am I doing wrong? How can I get it to paste the actual addresses and not just the name of the group? I looked at the Edit Distribution List window and all the addresses are there.
I'm using OS X 10.5.7, Address Book 4.1.2 and Thunderbird 2.0.0.22.
Thanks in advance.

What is the exact message you get when sending fails -- does it say there are one or more invalid addresses, or what?
Having a name in the list without email address or possibly one separated by comma between last and first might result similarly in an invalid address, and Mail will likely refuse to send to any. But if the message is from the SMTP, that might depend on the provider's policies for that.

IPhone cannot send email using Yahoo account. iPhone no envia correo Yahoo.

Hi Everyone,
I just got my iPhone from Movistar Venezuela and I've found I'm unable to send email using my Yahoo account. However, I can receive Yahoo email just fine (paid $20 for Mail Plus subscription), my GMail account can send and receive perfectly, and I can go surfin' Safari with no problems too.
The error message I get is "Cannot send mail: an error occurred while delivering this message". I called Movistar Customer Support and they said everything was fine on their end...
In typical Apple fashion, the error message is so simple I have no idea where the problem is. Does anyone know how can I get more information and how to solve this annoying problem? My Yahoo account is actually my primary account...
Thanks in advance!
Saludos a todos,
Acabo de comprarme un iPhone de Movistar en Venezuela y me encuentro sin poder enviar emails con mi cuenta Yahoo. Sin embargo, si puedo recibir correo Yahoo bien (pague $20 por mi suscripcion a Mail Plus), mi cuenta de GMail si puede enviar y recibir email sin problema y puedo navergar con Safari sin ningun problema.
El mensaje de error que recibo es el siguiente": "No se puede enviar correo: se ha producido un error al enviar el mensaje". Llame a Atencion al Cliente de Movistar y me dijeron que no habia ningun problema con mi linea o con su servicio de datos...
Como tipica cosa Apple, el mensaje de error es tan simple que no tengo NI IDEA de cual es el problema. Alguien mas ha sufrido este problema? Sabe alguien como puedo obtener mas informacion de este error y como solucionarlo? Lamentablemente, mi cuenta Yahoo es mi correo principal...
Gracias de antemano!

Creo que resolvi el problema, temporalmente.
1) Borra tu cuenta
2) Vuelvela a crear
3) Ve a Ajustes
4) Ve a Mail Contactos Calendarios
5) Ve a la cuenta problematica
6) Ve a SMTP
7) Anadir nuevo
8)
Nombre servidor: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Nombre de usuario: no dejar vacio
Contrasena: no dejar vacio
Usar SSL: si
Autenticacion: Contrasena
Puerto del Servidor: 25
Lo consegui de aqui: http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html
Dime que tal te funciona.
I think I solved the issue, temporarily at least
1) Delete account
2) Create again
3) Go to settings
4) Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
5) Open problematic account
6) Go to SMTP
7) Add a new server
8)
Name: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
User name: do not leave blank
Password: do not leave blank
SSL: Yes
Autentication: Password
Port: 25
I got this info from: http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html
Let me know how this works

I cannot send email in hotmail account and insert buttons dissapear after 4 seconds

I am able to receive emails in hot mail account but cannot send.
This has been the case for the last two days.
Have the same problem in IE.
Noticed insert buttons disappear when I click on new
Same in IE

Ended up calling my service provider to figure it out. They couldn't but again gave me all the perameters to enter into an account. I had to cancel the account on my phone and set up a new one. I had to enter the information more than once before the phone would actually save it. Lucky me, it did not lose all the emails I had stored on the phone. No help from Apple!
