Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if you can then send emails

  • Can receive mail but not send mail

    Hey, I can receive mail but cannot send mail. I previously had bellsouth mail and it worked fine, now I have a Charter.net account and I get a pop up every time I try to send mail saying, Mail couldn't be sent using the POP account Charter.net. I would really appreciate any help that some of you Mac experts could give me. It'd be nice to be able to send e-mail without having to go to the Charter website!
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Ernie,
    Is there any chance that this inability to SEND could be fixed by the removal of MessageRules.plist, MessageRules.plist.backup, MessageSorting.plist and MessageSorting.plist.backup that I have seen in other threads on Mail problems? I'm not having a complete failure of Mail, but I can't send mail (only receive).
    I have contacted both my ISP (ATT) and my "second party" mail host (Godaddy.com) and all my settings are correct and things should, in theory, work fine -- but they don't!

  • TS3276 My email is yahoo, can receive mail but can't send, any suggestions?

    Just got new MacBook air. Having trouble with email, can receive mail but cant send. Any suggestions?

    If you still have the MobileMe account setting up the Mail App should be very simple BUT if you do not you WILL need the incoming and outgoing server setting and the easiest way is to follow the email cheat sheet by apple
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1277
    You WILL need to contact your Email Service Provider for this

    Hi,
    It may pay to send a Screen Shot of the Connection Doctor info.  (see the Window Menu)
    It would seem the IMAP or POP side is logged in bit the out going STMP server is not.

    Ripped a CD to iTunes, it is showing up in "My Music" but when I sync with my 80gb Classic the ripped CD is not syncing even though other changes I made are
    Have checked device sync settings and it is entire music library and their is plenty of space on ipod to accommodate - have restarted both itunes and the computer and disconnected and reconnected ipod to no avail.
    Running itunes on Window machine under W8.1 and ipod software is 1.12

    Thanks planb77. Your instructions worked but I had to do a little more than you stated. I did not realize that transferring files to a new computer was not enough. When the iPod synced I was told I needed to "authorize" my new computer to get my iTunes purchases to sync to the iPod. So after the initial sync, I ejected and disconnected the iPod, went into the iTunes store, set up "home sharing" and then authorized the new computer. When that was done I reconnected the iPod and was able to sync all my books and music. The only thing I couldn't do was rename the iPod as iTunes never asked me to. Is there a way to rename it after it has been set by iTunes as "owner's iPod"?

    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try the following:
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Windows 8], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-vista Windows Vista], [http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true" Windows XP], [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 OSX]

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Can receive mail, it takes a while. Will not send mail, tells me sending 1 of 1, but never sends. Try shutting down and restarting doesn't help. What do I do now?

    Can receive mail, but it takes a little while. Try and send a email but it never sends, bottom left corner says sending 1 of 1 but never sends. I've shut down and restarted iPad but that doesn't help. What to do to correct this and what is the cause?

    In that case your email provider's server is having difficulties to deliver the message to the recipients email provider server.
    This has got nothing to do with Thunderbird.
    There is little you can do though. You may have the recipient to check with his email provider if they have any issues.

  • Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have had not problem until today.  I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?

    Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have not had problems until today.  I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?

    I have been having the exact same problem for weeks now with gmail.  None of my computers will send Gmail (they will recieve) and my Maverick computers (10.9.1) show gmail smtp.gmail.com as "offline".  I had installed Post Box and apple support thought it was that i had too many accounts (I have 2 ipads, an iphone (latest iOs), a work and home iMac and a powerbook).  I disabled all my gmail accounts in Mail and still no go from PostBox either . I tried connection doctor and it just spins for outgoing and say I either haveve the wrong pw or login - I dont.  I terminaled and tested port 465 (according to gmail instructions) and it works (port 25 did not).  I can access gmail from the webmail and send/recieve mail from it and it shows up in my webmail outbox. It is configured for imap.I just cannot send mail at all from any gmail account from any apple device using Mail (or PostBox). I am at a loss as was the apple support person who wished me good luck very politely and sympathetically.

    Did you change the email address or create a new Apple ID?
    If the email address associated with the account was merely changed, sign out of the Apple ID on the devices and sign in using the new credentials.

  • I changed my e-mail address a few months ago everything was ok. Starting monday my outgoing mail can not be sent, it says the server rejected my e-mail address. Why ? I can receive mail but not send it

             My outgoing mail gets rejected. I can get mail but not send it.It was working for about 6 months.

    If the smtp is rejecting your password you should go in.
    Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts
    Select your Yahoo account in the sidebar on the left.
    In account information tab you will see : " Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) "
    Click on it and choose edit SMTP server list.
    Select Yahoo and click on the advanced tab.
    Now fill your new Yahoo password.
    Hope it's help.
