Anyone had trouble sending emails using mac pro

Until recently I was sending and recieving email with no problem using my Mac Mail and home router to a Hotmail server. About 2 weeks ago I was unable to send emails to anyone it came back with the message smtp server not responding. I know the server is ok because I can send from other PCs and via web mail on the Mac. I have concluded there is a mismatch between my router and Mac Mail application and wondered if any one else has experienced this. More importantly do you know how to fix it?
Any advice is welcome

Simply it is Mac Mail. For any reason, or no reason at all, it just stops sending or recieving mail.
If you want to forgo these type problems in the future switch to some other, ANY OTHER, Mail program.
Mac Mail is the worst. If you don't believe me just do a search of these forums for Mail Stopped sending Mail, or Can Recieve but can't Send.
I use Thunderbird on all my computers, PC and Mac, and have not had one problem with it in the year+ I've been using it.
I used Mac Mail for about a day and said "There Has to be Something better". I then switched to Thunderbird on the Mac then a few days later switched my PCs, multiples, to Thunderbird.

Has anyone had problems sending emails using via (Road Runner) POP account?

I cannot send any emails w/ the iPhone via Road Runner POP account.... I have tried everything. From Calling Time Warner to have my Password reset just incase I'm using the incorrect password, which in fact the settings menu for mail says the password for outgoing emails are optional.. I keep getting a message saying "my email was rejected by the server" Is anyone having this problem and if so please suggest any solutions.......
Does anyone know how to set my mail app on my home computer to only forward the messages I want to my iPhone while moving all other junk emails to my Junk folder on my computer????

Last I checked you could not access RoadRunner outgoing mail servers from outside of the RoadRunner network (i.e., the AT&T EDGE network). You can use cwmx.com as your outgoing mail server, with no ID or password, and that will work while you are on EDGE (but now when you are on WiFi).
As for junk mail, that is the scourge of the internet. Many people have many solutions - I can share with you mine. I had all my email forwarded to a free GMail account. GMail has amazingly efficient SPAM filters, and it has cut down my spam 99%. You can configure your account on the iPhone using the "Other" shortuct in such a way that emails seem to come from your Roadrunner account. The added bonus is that the GMail outgoing server works on both EDGE and WiFi, so you dont have to worry about where you are at.

HT1766 Has anyone had trouble sending a photo message

Has anyone had trouble sending a photo message

Many people (I'm not one of them) have had trouble sending pictures for a very wide variety of reasons.
If what you're actuallly trying to say is "I'm having trouble sending pictures. Can someone help?" then we're going to need more details. Check with your carrier to make sure your account is properly set up. Go to Settings>Messages and make sure you have MMS turned on. Make sure that you have an active data connection (cellular or WiFI).

Anyone having trouble sending email but no problem receiving?

Having trouble sending messages from mac email but no problem receiving emails? Not sure how to get it working. Called apple and they want my credit card before they help me. Did anyone else have this email problem.

With Mail running, click Window in the menu bar and select Connection Doctor. That will tell you what service is not working. If this is a gmail account, it may well be yet another problem with the gmail smtp server. It happens too often.

Users Having Troubling Sending Email with Mac Mail Client with Godaddy

Hello,
I recently had issues' with my mail and my new Mac Pro and sending emails from www.godaddy.com. I tried 4 email clients and could retrieve my emails but the outgoing mail server keep rejecting my password. After I almost switch email companies I called one last person from godaddy. The support person James M suggested deleting the account in my email manager on godaddy system and re-created the account and everything works fine. Please note, to back up emails before doing this. I think something is corrupting something in the server that requires the deletion of the email account that is only effecting 10.64 users.
Best of luck,
M

Have GoDaddy reset the SMTP relays to 0 (zero), then back up to 250 (or whatever your limit is). This reset the password authentication and emails were sent fine afterwards. Good luck.

Can't send emails using .mac accounts? Finally the solution!!! Nice & Easy!

Found this after searching these discussions for over an hour, and it really works, but you MUST create a new account, don't edit your existing one. Very quick & easy!!! Here you go, courtesy of Guillermo Toro-Lira:
OK guys, problem solved, at least for those with a dotMac account like me.
You have to create a new MobileMe account in your iPhone using your new MobileMe email address ( [email protected] instead of [email protected] ).
Select Add Account... on Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then MobileMe, enter your name, MobileMe address, password and description and select Save. The system will validate your account first. Then go back to Accounts, select your dotMac account and select delete. Your new mails, contacts, calendars will be sync'd by your new MobileMe account.
It looks like iPhone classic 2.0 requires your new MobileMe address ([email protected]) to send emails.

I accessed my .Mac account with the iPhone's mail client with my first generation iPhone for over a year including for a while after the change to MM before I purchased my iPhone 3G.
The first generation iPhone and the iPhone 3G are capable of running the same firmware so there is no difference between the two in this regard. To say the first generation iPhone requires creating and accessing the @Me account instead of the @Mac account is incorrect.
If this is true with many, how come not a single person has chimed in with this thread saying the same thing?

Has anyone had issues with the new Mac Pro computers and the Adobe Application Manager?

We just purchased a new Mac Pro and transferred everything from the old computer to the new one. Now we are getting Adobe Application Manager errors and it wants us to download Application Manager. That leads us to the Adobe Installer that encounters the following issues
Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. But that doesn't work either.
Anyone run into this?

Yep, half of my tracks are coming up displaying an error -69 ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302684 ) and every time I remove a track from the shuffle or update the shuffle, Itunes opens a window displaying the contents of J:\ (obviously the ipod) and hidden folder \iPod_Control.... I'm really irked with this. Been mucking around with the stupid thing for hours now.
Nothing was wrong with it until it suddenly decided to stop working, it wouldn't play tracks and Itunes wouldn't recognise it, hadn't missed a beat up till now. Sifted through the Support site for an answer and getting told I needed to update Itunes and update the Ipod software, ***?? It was working fine before. Me thinks Apple have inserted software in ipod to force users to update to newer version of Itunes. Anyway, ever since updating to the latest Itunes, the Ipod is back in action, but it is trying to tell me that half of my mp3s are corrupt (see error -69), rofl, um no, it's your stupid software Apple, I'm off to by myself a decent MP3 player without the bloat software.

Cannot send email using mac mail and yahoo att

I recently was hacked and changed my att yahoo password and security questions. I got a confirmation email about this but not about changing the password. I can receive mail, but not send any. All my settings in preferences seem to be correct. The TLS certificate is not check however, and I'm wondering if that has something to do with it. The port number has not been changed, nor the outgoing service address: which is: smtp.att.yahoo.com: (followed by my email account name). I've had this email address for years and want to keep using it. apparently Yahoo has been having allot of problems over the last few days and I've found it hard to access their trouble shooting sites and log in page. Is there something I can do on my end to fix this? Thanks.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Problem sending emails with Mac Mail 1.3.11

Desperately in need of help. I'm able to receive but not send email using Mac Mail. I keep getting an error message:
"This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server"
I have already tried the following at the advice of AppleCare reps:-
Have verified & repaired disk utilities & keychains
Have reinstalled the operating system
Have trashed the mail.plist file
Have trashed the outbox.mbox file
Getting quite frustrated now because we have a mac bookpro with identical mail settings and it is able to send and receive mail without any problems.Could it be the version of Mail I'm running ?
I initially thought that the problem related to having switched to a new ISP but the fact that one of the mac's has no problem has led me to be less convinced of that idea.
Any suggestions gratefully accepted.
Many thanks

I am having the same problem exactly. I can read e-mail, but get the same error message trying to send it. I can't use .Mac anymore--have to use alternate e-mail for the last month--since some time in October 2006.
I haven't changed anything on my G4, haven't upgraded anything, and the problem started about the time .Mac reported some customers were unable to use Mail for a couple of days in October.
I see nobody answered your post. Did you ever get your mail to work? I have repaired permissions, but I don't think it has anything to do with that.
Thanks,
iMama

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder? I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder. Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks. I suspect that will work.
With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages. If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

We used to get a 'whooshing' noise when we sent an eMail using mac Mail. This no longer happens. We recently updated to Mountain Lion 10.8.1 Can anyone throw light on this please? David

When I send emails using my iPad, recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails. I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white...

When I send emails using my iPad, some recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails. I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white. Interestingly enough, I was a Windows user just a few months ago and I was on the receiving end of this same problem with someone who was sending emails from her iPhone. I don't believe it is happening every time but if it happens even once it's a problem. Any idea what's going on?

Oddly enough, having reported the problem it appears to have fixed itself. There may be some combination swipe gesture that triggers it is all I can think because I suddenly manged to zoom my display x3 by double tapping three fingers. Took me a while to sort this out but then when I got back home I could suddenly see all my emails again. Bizarre!

Has anyone had trouble using Adobe Support on line?

Has anyone had trouble using the Adobe support on line? For two days, I have tried to use the support system which requires a phone call and being put on hold or a call back of up to one hour wait long. Four or five times my call was dropped shortly after the agent began to work with me.. One female agent was unable to find my adobe Lightroom serial # registered, so threatened to drop the call. My # was used a couple of days to download Lt. Rm 3.6. I asked to speak with her manager, she put me on hold, and hung up the phone after 20 mintues. I did get her name in case anyone from Adobe is interested. I tried again and again to get help, but each time it ended in a hang up. Does any one know how to get to an agent who can really help? I am beyond frustration.

Try asking your question here, instead. There are lots of people here with great expertise, even though we don't work for Adobe.
