Can not send emails after ML update

I am unable to send emails after updating to Mountain Lion. Four email accounts, same problem: All settings are unchanged, but SMTP servers for outgoing mail are set as passive. No problem with incoming emails. Any suggestions?

I thought they might be. Apple seems to forget about POP accounts, and most problems seem to occur in them.
Do you have a backup before upgrading?
Did Mail go through the upgrade process the first time you opened Mail after the installation? Sounds like something may have gone wrong.
All mail accounts and emails are stored in you user/Library/Mail/V2 folder. If you have a time machine backup, just restore that V2 folder from before the upgrade (close Mail first) and see if that fixes the problem.
To see your Library folder, click on the desktop to make it active, then go to the menu at the top, select Go, then Go to Folder and type or copy and paste
~/Library
Then go to the Mail folder and open it and click on Time Machine - restore the V2 folder from before the backup

  • I can't send email after iOS7 update...

    I can't send email after the iOS7 update....this is a show stopper for me.   When is a fix expected?

    First it would help if you explain exactly what happens when you send an email. 
    Do you get an error message?
    If so what does the message say?
    The abilitly to send or receive emails does not fall on Apple or the IOS 7.
    You email provider gives you that ability.
    Double check and make sure your outgoing mail server is correct.

    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.

  • Mail will not send emails after security update

    Hello,
    I am having trouble now sending email - like many others aparently. I receive a message when trying to send mail:
    - a dialog box requests the authentication password for the smtp server
    When entering the correct password it simply repeats. I have had no trouble up to this point. I can log into both accounts via the web using the correct password.
    I am having this problem
    - on a BT Internet account,
    - and my Yahoo account as well,
    both of which I use on Mail for business.
    Please help?!
    Best, Jeff

    Question answered in another string - British Telecom changed outgoing servers for me and things seem to be working again - fault is a mystery though. Sorry I cannot help others in this strange situation.

  • Iphone 3s not sending email after osi5 update, except when connected to wifi

    any info?

    I have the same problem! Before the upgrade, if I wasn't connected to the internet, any messages sent to me from an iphone would convert automatically to a text message. I have payg tarriff, so I turn cell data off, as it costs too much to use it. I have wifi at home and work, but if I'm out and about, I don't receive texts from iphone users until I'm on wifi. I get them ok from non iphone users. There was never any problem until ios7

    Hi tania184,
    Have you contacted your email provider to make sure there are no problems on their end? If they say their email servers are working properly, check the outgoing and incoming mail servers entries on your iPhone to make sure both are entered correctly. Enter the outgoing mail server even if the account setup indicates that is optional.

  • Can't send email after 3.0 upgrade

    I can receive but not send email after the 3.0 upgrade. Also, the stock and weather buttons never update.
    Email is my important issue. Any ideas?

    Yeah, I put that in the title so hopefully people would see it right off the bat. I've been in the forum, looking at threads since the update to see if I'm the only one, and seem to be. I know tons of people are seeing problems with yahoo pushing email, but that's less of a concern to me at this point. And the fact that it worked just fine until this update tells me Apple broke it with their update. Surely I'm not the only person. And switching to gmail is not a good option for me. First of all, I hate gmail. Second of all, the sbcglobal account is my main mail account for my dsl line and I use it heavily. I don't want to switch. Shouldn't have to in my opinion.
    I was in the Promenade in Santa Monica earlier, was going to ask a "Genius", but the wait to see one was ridiculous. couldn't get an appointment till Monday. I'll wait till I'm back home to go the apple store I guess. It just frustrates me because I seriously doubt they can do anything at the store I haven't done already.

  • I can not send email from my iPad .  Have been using it for over a year, all of a sudden I can only receive email.  I have a wifi connection in my home and have a A T &T cellular data plan?

    I can not send email from my iPad .  Have been using it for over a year, all of a sudden I can only receive email.  I have a wifi connection in my home and have a A T &T cellular data plan?

    I have a 1st gen iPhone that I just updated the software to 2.0.2
    Now whenever I press the mail icon it goes to the mail app for about 4 seconds, does nothing, no loading of folders, old messages, nothing.
    Then it reverts back to the home screen. Tried restarting, haven't tried restoring, thought I'd look here first.
    Anyone???

  • TS3899 In my iPad 2 with IO6 today I can not send emails from my gmail account, they go to the outbox directly...why? How can i solve this problem? ..I restarted the IPad but the problem was not solved. Please help.

    In my iPad 2 with IO6 today I can not send emails from my gmail account, they go to the outbox directly...why? How can i solve this problem? ..I restarted the IPad but the problem was not solved. Please help.

    Greetings,
    Questions:
    1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
    3. Do you use MobileMe/ iCloud or another server based sync solution like Google or Yahoo?
    4. Do other changes to synced information like Address Book content sync successfully back and forth?
    Based on your description it sounds like you have a 1 way sync issue.  Events sync fine between the iOS devices and fine from the computer to the iOS devices but not from the iOS devices to the computer.
    Try:
    Backup your computer and iOS devices before doing anything else:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Ensure all the devices in use are fully up to date: Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update
    Make separate backups of critical data:
    Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
    Reset syncing on your Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    Reply back if that does not resolve your issue.
    Hope that helps.

  • Ever since i upgraded my os to lion, my quickbooks can not send emails to my draft folder in mail.  help!

    ever since i upgraded my os to lion, my quickbooks can not send emails to my draft folder in mail.  help!

    Snow Leopard breaks quite a few drivers - my Canon exhibited the same problem.
    I eventually found updated drivers on the Canon website. You can try that with the HP, but if the all-in-one is more than a year or so old, don't hold your breath.
    You can also try Software Update to see if it will offer new drivers, or failing that go to the Support Downloads site and search for HP updates.
    In fact there's a new one for HP at the top of the list just now.
    You may not necessarily want the latest one, though - check the specs to see if your model is covered; if not, search for the previous update etc.

  • TS3899 I still can not send email from my ipad but iPhone works on those accounts

    I still can not send email from my .mac account or a .comcast.net from my ipad. I how 2 people so far that has brought to my attention. We have exchange accounts setup on the ipads for work. I compare the settings from iPad to iPhone from my view it appears identical. I am looking at an iPad 2 and a Mini.
    I turned on and off the ipads and nothing really changed. The emails come into those accounts.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
