TS2621 Cannot send emails from my iPad hotmail account. I can receive but not send. I get message"unable to send email"

This just started out of the blue today. I get a message saying email cannot be sent.

I have done everything in the link TechMastr suggested. I can not send a hotmail message from any of my I-devices. I thought it might be just my accounts, but tried my husband's device as well. This includes things not connected to wi-fi and on 3G. Could it be hotmail? It is so frustrating.

I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works. Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up. Try them again.
Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp. Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp. Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.
Kep trying.

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.

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails. I have iPad with same settings and no issues. Yet, I keep getting "cannot send mail" the user name or password for "[email protected]" is incorrect. Please assist. I am not running both accounts simultaneously

See:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
Did it work before?
I suspect a error in the settings for the outgoing mail server.

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?
I have no problems with my Yahoo account but I can not send emails with my skynet account.
Actually in iPhone :
Outgoing Mail Server > SMTP "relay.skynet.be"
Primary server > Not Configured > Off
Thank you ...

When you set them up, did you set up both the incoming and outgoing email servers separately, and did you enter the correct SMTP server name, and enter your userid and password even though it says "optional"?
Something else to try, if you haven't, is delete the accounts, connect the iPhone to iTunes, on the Info tab check the box to sync mail server settings, then sync. This should duplicate the settings from your computer to your iPhone.

Icloud email can receive but not send on PC?

With icloud emails on my iphone I can receive and send icloud emails. On my PC I can receive but not always send. When I try to send an icloud email I get this message: "This message cannot be sent at this time"
Thanks,

I ran into this problem myself while connected via WI-FI last night and it was due to port 25 being blocked by my ISP. I recommend that you set up your Yahoo! e-mail account within iPhone. Go to Settings | Mail | Add Account... Yahoo will be the top choice.
If you want to continue to use Yahoo via POP3/SMTP, then look at this link:

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

TS3276 Anyone experiencing problems sending mail using TalkTalk - can receive but not send - was ok up until pm 24/08/12 - have recently loaded Mountain Lion patch could this be the problem?

"I managed to solve the problem. Under smtp settings (mail preferences/accounts/edit smtp) I set the outgoing port to 25 (as recommended by Talktalk), no authentication (set to none) and unchecked SSL. I found that until I set the port to 25 and authentication to none I was unable to uncheck SSL. One I had done this I was able to send from my main email and other email adddresses set up under my account."
Superb advice R&W! My email sending block using TalkTalk started 2 months ago using Snow Leopard, continued when I upgraded to 10.8.2, and has been persistent on my wife's new iPad (IOS 6.1). Implementing your wise words has fixed all that, and now enables me to call her on FaceTime — previously only she could call me. Thank you so much; this will save hours of further fruitless searching and phoning.
Please remember that your email is now insecure, if you wish to have a secure connection SSL must be on and port 25 should be avoided.

Looks like there is a general problem with SMTP mail today. Lots of people posting similar things.

I think a firewall is interfering with my mail program - I can receive but not send. Please help!

I think Firefox may have installed a firewall that is interfering with my email program - I can receive but not send mail.

Not sure how often

Firefox does not install a firewall.

For the past week I cannot send emails to msn or hotmail. I can receive from them. I use aol

I cannot send emails to msn or hotmail. This has been only for the past week....Up until then everything worked fine. I can receive emails from msn and hotmail. I have aol.

Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

I have just deleted 6000 emails from my ipad and laptop leaving about 100, but my ipad still says my mail is taking up 3.7 GB of space. How can I fix this?

I have just deleted over 6,000 emails from my ipad and laptop leaving about 100 old emails and my ipad is still saying I am using 3.7 GB of space for my emails. How can I fix this?

do a reboot. press and hold both the home and sleep buttons intil you see the apple logo. ignore the red slider. Also, make sure the mail app is fully closed. doulbe tap to see the task bar, then swipe up on the mail app.

Read this if you can receive, but not send email

If you can receive, but cannot send email on your iPhone, try the following:
Add your outgoing Server Port Number to your "Outgoing Mail Server Name"
Example: smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number ( eg. 25 )
For specifics on how to do this, read on.
From the Home Screen, select:
Settings
*Mail,Contacts ...*
your email Account ex: [email protected]
Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server
Then select your outgoing mail server *SMTP smtp.example.com*
Select Primary Server smtp.example.com
Host Name change smtp.example.com to smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number.
This worked great, but unfortunately this helpful hint could not be found on the Apple support forum ... until now
Hope this helps!

This worked for me too! (iPhone 3G 2.02). Apple's once-over-lightly help with this issue is really lame. I thought better of Apple but they are turning into just another Dell or Microsoft.

Yosemite Apple Mail tells me one of my gmail servers is offline. I can receive but not send.

I have 3 Gmail accounts on my MacBook Pro which has recently been updated to Yosemite OS x 10.10.1
Storage 1TB. RAM 8GB
Internet access (Webmail) works fine on all my gmail accounts, so the servers are definitely online
I am now having trouble with Apple Mail and my main Gmail account
I can receive e-mails OK but am unable to send
Mail keeps telling me the smtp.gmail.com server is offline and I should verify my user name and password
On Webmail I am able to both send and receive emails
It seems the problem lies with Apple Mail
I have tried the app specific password a couple of times
It doesn't work
I have tried connection doctor and everything is green except outgoing smtp which just spins
Today, another of my gmail accounts is showing the same problem
Is there a conflict between Yosemite Apple mail and Gmail?
It's a long winded workaround, but can I set up a shortcut to webmail on all three accounts and dispense with Apple Mail?

There's a sequence of steps in the support article for each of several possible scenarios of a connection failure in Mail. Please describe in detail what happened when you followed the applicable sequence all the way to the very end, without skipping any of the steps. That's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem.
