Port 995

Hi,
I have just set up web hosting and I am attempting to set-up my email so that it can be received and sent from Mail. I have been in constant correspondence with their support desk, but they don't seem to be able to assist any further.
They tell me that my iMac is blocking port 995 so mail won't send. As a result, they've told me that I can't use IMAP and must use POP instead. I really don't want to do this, therefore is there anyway of setting my Mac so that port 995 is open?
Thanks.

What you have been told makes no sense, at least as you have repeated it. Port 995 is never used for sending -- it is the port to be used with a POP account and SSL, and only with POP. The analogous port for receiving IMAP using SSL is Port 993. Again neither would have anything to do with sending and presenting the Outgoing Server. Any SMTP using SSL would typically use Port 465.
The port for any Incoming server is selected in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced, while the port for any Outgoing Server (SMTP) is selected in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information by clicking on the up/down arrows beside the name of the Outgoing server. This has two tabs, the second tab, named Advanced, is where you selection the port and and authentication to be used with the SMTP.
More info, please.

  • Port 995 settings

    Received the message about the port 25 change for outlook users. Followed the instructions provided. email stopped working
    after trying various combinations email works with the port 25 change for outgoing mail but the requested change to port 995 in the incoming server didn't by switching the out going port back to 110 and leaving the incoming at the new 465 setting it now is working again.  Question will the old outgoing port be blocked also? When will the incoming port 25 be blocked in Pa.  After reading other posts there seem to be issues with the new 456 port and spam.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your post. At this time if your service is Dynamic you will not be able to use Port 25 to send messages. Port 587 must be used in order to send outgoing email. 
    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Can receive but can't send mail via BT Yahoo SMTP server port 995

    Suddenly I can't send mail from my BT/Yahoo account but can still receive mail. The message that i get is that it was rejected by the server. I have not changed the server - it is still SMTP via port 995, using SSL. Help!! Why should this have ocurred out of the blue and what do I do?

    Hi Dancing Brave,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend starting with the steps in this article if you are not able to send mail:

  • Apple mail issue with Gmail account    port 995 has expired

    I loaded Lion Mountain and now i have no access to my Gmail account on MAIL
    error msg
    server sent an error   connexion to the server « imap.gmail.com » port 995 has expired
    it works very well on my iphone and Sparrow but not on my iMac

    I have mine set to 993... but I did not set it... all i did was set up gmail, and it worked automaticlly. That might have been the port number in Lion... i dont know.

  • Yosemite, Mail-Preference-Accounts- Advanced port 995 problem

    I'm using mac air and mac pro. I've got a problem on my mail receiving when upgraded to Yosemite, in my mail preference- Accounts-Advanced, i am trying to change port 995 to 110 but it keeps reverting to 995 when saved. Port 110 is the setting before, pls help?

    Any tips on setting up a NEW account with advanced settings?
    There seems to be a UX issue with setting up the accounts. Every time I'm setting up my email from my own servers, it passes IMAP with "an error occurred" and then after inputting my SMTP info, it hangs....and hangs....and NOTHING happens. I need to configure my account is setup as IMAP SSL, but it's not detecting it nor is it giving me options to insert this information.
    What the crap happened with MAIL?  (Been using Airmail for a while, but gave up on that.)

  • If you're having trouble w/ ports 995 and 465...

    Hi,
    Please see this other thread that I created, specifically my posts of Nov. 24 and Nov. 25:
    http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-net-Email/Email-I-received-regarding-changing-settings-by-Dec-2...
    Since many other people seem to be running into this problem, I'm creating this new thread in the hope that it will help.
    I have the Yahoo portal, so my server settings are incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
    When I changed ports to 995 and 465 using SSL in Thunderbird, I was unable to receive and send e-mail.
    Finally I read that it was possible that my modem/router (an old Westell 327w) was blocking the ports. Supposedly the device blocked the ports by default. One solution offered was to lower my firewall setting to LOW. I did that, and presto! I am now able to use the required settings in Thunderbird with no problem.
    However, I'm not happy about having to lower my firewall settings and would like to eventually find another solution.
    I'd like to hear from anyone using a desktop email client like Thunderbird who never had any trouble with the new settings. Would you be willing to share what type of modem/router you have from Verizon? Then I would look into getting one of those.
    Other info that might help -- I'm still using Win XP SP3. I just have Verizon High-Speed Internet, not FIOS.
    I hope this helps other people, and I hope to get some info on newer modem/routers that don't block ports 995 and 465.
    Thanks!

    Even though Disk Utility First Aid 'repaired' the drive I would still not rely on DU to find and fix errors. Nor continue to rely on LaCie.
    Usually when there is a problem the FW ports need to be 'reset' which seems to be a LaCie feature or only happens with their cases.
    And yes, use SuperDuper or Drive Genius 2 so you have bootable backups. But sadly 3rd party disk repair and maintenance are essential and a must. Don't wait until DU First Aid does find an error it can't fix, DW finds and fixes problems Apple doesn't.

  • Ich bekomme bei Mail keine Eingangsmails mehr und folgenden Hinweis: Der Server meldet den Fehler: Bei der Verbindung zum Server „pop3.arcor.de" über den Port 995 ist eine Zeitüberschreitung aufgetreten.  Was kann ich machen?

    Ich bekomme bei Mail keine Eingangsmails mehr und folgenden Hinweis: Der Server meldet den Fehler: Bei der Verbindung zum Server „pop3.arcor.de“ über den Port 995 ist eine Zeitüberschreitung aufgetreten.  Die Ausgangsmails gehen aber sehr wohl raus. Was kann ich machen?

    use Mail > Window > Connection Doctor
    This will tell you exactly which part of Mail cannot connect. Sometimes it is the Mail Receiver, typically POP or IMAP. Its password is easy to see and fix.
    Sometimes it is the Mail Sender, or OutGoing mail Server, typically SMTP. The Outgoing Mail Server is difficult to access. Use:
    Mail > Preferences > Accounts >  Account Information > (select an Account)
    From "Outgoing Mail Server SMTP:" choose "Edit SMTP Server List"
    This will show you all your Mail Senders, and if any passwords are missing you can enter the correct password again

  • Can not setup email account on Bold 9900 with office 365 POP PORT 995

    Microsoft told you that? Very strange. Did you even try the wizard? Oops...Oh shoot...you are on an old legacy BB device with BIS. Sorry, forgot about that. EAS does not work with BIS, but if they face OWA to the internet for this email, it can integrate with that. I'm pretty sure that Office365 faces OWA.
    I don't remember about configuring POP...I gave it up years ago. Only use IMAP and EAS now, no need for ancient POP.

  • 7.3.2 Default Host and Ports 995 and 587

    Firmware 7.3.1 broke default host completely. This problem only seems to have been partially fixed with firmware 7.3.2.
    In my limited testing, while ports 22, 80, 443, and 5900 seemed to be routed to the specified default host, ports 587 (SMTP using SSL) and 995 (POP using SSL) weren't. They had to be specified under the NAT setting. (The certs are not self-signed.)
    Rather than wonder which of the 65535 ports might not be working as they should under default host I just went back to firmware 7.2.1.
    Has anyone had success with default host over ports 587 and 995 in 7.3.2?

    I think you mean 7.2.3!
    Anyway, you're right, you need UB versions of your plugins to work on Intel Macs.
    I believe that BFD is now UB, you need auto-tune 5 to get a UB version, likewise Guitar Rig 2. Not sure about Analog Factory. Google is your friend here. You might well need to pay for these upgrades, but see them as functional updates as well as a matter of compatability.
    I can see that people might get frustrated about this, but there's no way round it. Still, it's all part of the package. And neither is it a matter of keeping your host software current, it's about keeping your host hardware up to date. Any Intel Macs need UB software. Admittedly, you could try running in Rosetta, but I reckon that the reason why your plugins won't load is because if they bothered, your system would be so slow you wouldn't be able to get anything productive done at all. Consider it an investment, the extra power from the Intel machines is well worth the cost of the upgrades IMHO...

  • My provider changed to pop3 port 995 incoming and port 465 outgoing. Now it no longer works. I went into the Thunderbird 28 beta and changed the ports

    I have Thunderbird 28 beta. After changing the ports, I no longer receive mail and this is the error message going out:
    Sending of message failed.
    The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server mail.3dcartstores.com timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.
    Passwords have not been changed and I have to login on the web

    What are the exact instructions from your email provider?

  • Open port issues with Direct Print functionality

    Hi, I have been fighting with HP call support about the Photosmart 7525 printer.
    Originally I setup and had performed all the functions to enable both web support and WIFI.
    Within an hour the printer would not respond to wireless communication, though it had its wireless indecator showing it was connected.
    I was told by HP support that the issue will be resolved in March, as there will be a firmware update to fix the issue.
    Now that I had the printer install the new firmware I still get the issue.
    Though I found through some sniffing, that there are a number of ports enabled and open that are over and beyond print requirements.
    Funny thing I can send my printer into instant lockup with all lights flashing with a simple UDP ping sniff. I would think I can do this with other new HP printers using Eprint functions. I will find HP web based printers that are open for public printing and test my theory that HP Eprinters are open to hacking and denyal of service attempts.  My Hp print app on andriod list three in my area, and one is at my local Walmart. This would be cool to find this, as I am usually not the first to point such matters out.
    I assume some are for Apple devices to print.
    Here is my sniffing report:

    OK now I am able to run a full scan on TCP ports without causing a lock up of the printer.
    I found that having the printer connect to a router that has been setup to use channel 5, 6 or 7 will cause port scanning issues with the printer.
    It is obvious that there are 18 ports that are seen as open, whether they are used or not. Two of which are active but have no service connected to them. Some are just dead like port 25, but over half are active enough to recieve data and lock network connectivity within the printer.
    As the firmware states some other laser jets may be affected depending on how the configuration can be set.
    I moved my routers channel to channel 1 as it is the only other option I have in a highly congested location. It is not as good as channel 6, but the printer seems to have channel 6 locked in for direct printing.
    Here is the latest full scan with UDP enabled, it is the furthest and most complete scan I am able to complete, with UDP ports enabled. The TCP port scan has a bit more and I have placed a simple list below the information given here:

  • How to configure Mail to use different ports for POP and SMTP?

    I am trying to configure Mail for my AT&T account. It requires me to configure POP (incoming) mail for port 995, and SMTP (outgoing) mail for port 465. However there doesn't seem to be an option to configure different ports for these. Is that correct, or am I missing something?
    Alternatively can I configure two accounts, one for POP incoming and one for SMTP outgoing? My incoming POP account does work, but in configuring an outgoing account I still have to configure a POP server name and that will not work for the outgoing port.
    Any advice on how to solve this would be appreciated.

    Understand. It is really quite easy to do in Mail, too. Kappy told you how to set up the smtp piece. I gave you pop info. These two things are on different panels within Account Preferences.
    To recap his and my posts
    SMTP:
    In Mail Prefs, click on the accounts icon. Click on your att yahoo account on the list. On the right of the window, in the lower portion, you see an smtp server menu. Open it and select edit. Select Edit Server, then click on its Advanced tab. Set up port 465 with SSL.
    POP:
    This is on a different panel in Mail PRefs Accounts. Now in Mail Prefs, click on the accounts icon. Click on your att yahoo account on the list. On the right of the window, you see three tabs, acc't info, mbox behaviors, and Advanced. This is where things are different than for smtp. You are going to configure stuff on a different "advanced" panel than where you were for the smtp stuff. Click on the advanced tab. There is a field for port with a SSL checkbox next to it and an authentication drop down menu. Check the box and it should quickfill change from 110 to 995. Autentication drop down is probably already default to password.
    Did you visit the URL I gave you previously? It even gives you screen shots.

  • Port for remote domain

    Trying to set up my mail account for my website.  Can receive but cannot send.  I know there is a port I can use to get it to work but I haven't been able to recreate my research path for the last time I found the port number.  Can anyone help?

    Hi, normally the ports are...
    The receiving email ports are:
    IMAP is port 143
    IMAP-SSL is port 993
    POP is port 110
    POP-SSL is port 995
    Outgoing ports are...
    SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

  • Mail 2.1.3 Port Connection error after security update.

    I have 6 active email accounts that are normally checked by Apple Mail. After installing the most recent security update yesterday, 4 of the 6 accounts stopped connecting to their respective ports. Two of them are POP accounts (both gmail accounts on port 995), two are IMAP (ports 993 and 143), all four use SSL in the advanced settings. Of the two accounts that still work, one is an IMAP account (port 143), the other is a POP account (port 110), both without SSL. Firewall is on.
    I get the error:
    "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "account name" or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "correct server" on port 995 timed out."
    The error is the same for all four accounts, with their respective ports.
    I have checked my server settings and verified that they are all correct. I can login to webmail for all of these accounts and read my mail without problems.
    Mail Connection Doctor says:
    "Could not connect to this POP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Accounts preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, uncheck the "Use SSL" checkbox in the advanced tab of Account preferences."
    All four accounts require use of SSL.
    I have tested their connections on two different wireless modems and an ethernet connection to the same network as one of the wireless setups. No change.
    I have tried turning off my firewall. No change.
    I tried setting up one of my gmail accounts as an IMAP account instead of POP. This did not work either.
    I have tried adding a Firewall Port connection for ports 995, 993, and 143 as both TCP and UDP numbers (independently and together). No change.
    I have tried following these instructions from Mulder in response to another user's topic:
    "1. Quit Mail if it's running.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Mail and delete all the sub-folders within that one.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Mail and delete this file:
    • LSMap2
    4. Restart Mail and see if it works."
    No change.
    Any other suggestions?

    I did get some suggestions from this

    thread, but still no email from those four accounts. Does anybody else have any suggestions?
    I really do not want to have to resort to webmail and/or my iphone for my email needs.
