Can receive but can't send yahoo.co.uk email

I have tried multiple steps to reconfigure my outgoing email set up for yahoo.co.uk. the server is smtp.mail.co.uk. correct password is entered and i have even specified port 587. unfortunately i am unable to send via this email server. this is from my wifes account. my yahoo email works on my account fine.
any ideas

As far as I know, you can only send emails via a third party client (i.e Apple Mail, Thunderbird, Entourage, etc...) if you upgrade your account to Yahoo Mail Plus as we had the same problem a year or so ago.
Yahoo Plus is $11.00 per year - is it worth it? er...no. Trying to persuade my wife to go to Gmail, but alas the lady is not for turning...so, get your Visa card out and then pop in these settings into Mail:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995)
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication)
Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")
Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., [email protected])
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
This, theoretically, should work. However, we are having some major issues with Yahoo Mail at the moment even though we are using Mail Plus - can recieve but cannot send...sometimes. Why? No idea.

  • Can't send yahoo or godaddy email

    I use the Apple Mail client to view email accounts from yahoo and godaddy. I can receive mail on both accounts, but can suddenly send mail on neither account.
    It worked fine up until yesterday and I changed nothing! Pls help.
    I'm running OS 10.6.8

    In the advanced tab imap is empty on mine as well port 993 and ssl checked is correct enable this acct should be checked.
    Your outgoing (SMTP) server should be smtp.mail.yahoo.com: your email address here. Try clicking use only this server for testing purposes. You may try writing down all the info in accounts pane for this account, and delete it and then recreate it using the + and - buttons in the accts left side bar. One other thing is that yahoo is not going to be using "classic mail" as of early June, you might want to click the "Try New Mail" button on the web mail page if you are still using classic. I did this as well during my issue with this with yahoo. I don't know if this had anything what so ever to do with it, but I was just going thru everything. I recreated it all so I can not be certain what exactly fixed it.
    Hope some of this helps,
    Best

    See OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages for details. on troubleshooting mail.
    Your SMTP server settings are incorrect.  Mail has two connections, a receive path from your mail server to your mail client, and a send path from your mail client to the mail server.  The send path uses SMTP to communicate with the server.
    Apple Mail.app has separate settings for the receive and send paths; each has its own server, username, password, port and SSL settings.  Your send path settings are likely incorrect. 
    To determine the proper settings, check with Yahoo for the SMTP server settings for your account (usually a web search, but I don't know the details of how Yahoo sets up their accounts by default nor whether that varies by account), and verify that your settings match — the send-path settings are available via the accounts settings; Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select the account > Account Information > and switch the Select SMTP Server setting to Edit SMTP Server List... > select your Yahoo SMTP server, and set the account details per Yahoo requirements.

  • Can you send slideshows as an email attachment?

    can you send slideshows as an email attachment? Please provide the steps if it is possible, thank you

    Yes, but you shouldn't.
    Here's how.
    Export the Slideshow to the FInder - a process that will make a QuickTime movie of it.
    Attach that movie to the email. Send
    Why not? Videos are very large files. Most Internet providers have a limit on the largest file you can send. Sending one too large means it can bounce back to you. ALso, even if the other person can receive it, downloading large files via email is slow, and can even cause crashes on some email apps on older systems.
    Intead of emailing it, upload it to DropBox, YouTube, Vimeo, or any other sharing site and send the person a link.
    Then they can download it themselves

  • Contact can only send iMessage to my email, not my phone number

    Since Apple released iMessage my friend and I have been iMessaging. As of yesterday, I can still send my friend iMessages as usual, but she can only send iMessages to my email (I have "Receive at" set to my phone number and email, Caller ID set to my phone number). If she tries to send an iMessage to my phone number, as she did before, it will only send as a Text. All of my other iPhone contacts can still send iMessages to my phone number. We've each tried rebooting and switching iMessage on and off (we both have iPhone 4, IOS 5.1.1) without any luck. I realise that iMessage is still technically working with her sending to my email, but we just don't understand why sending to my phone number has suddenly stopped working. Grateful for any suggestions.

    It sounds like something has changed on her end...
    Is she sure she has iMessage turned On? Because that scenario usually occurs when you get an email text from a regular cell phone, i.e. iMessage may be Off on their end.

  • Hi , please I forget my security answer and they can not send it to my email ! can you help me please ?

    Hi , please I forget my security answer and they can not send it to my email ! can you help me please ?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    I can't send or get iCloud email on my macbook pro.

    If you migrated from MobileMe, try deleting the e-mail account in your mail preferences and adding it back again. You will only be required to enter your password and the ID, the setup should add the correct settings and hopefully this will resolve your problem.

    Hi there Breen4,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re running into an issue sharing an iMovie for iOS project with Mail on your iPad 2. Take a look at the article linked below which provides a lot of great information about sharing iMovie for iOS projects.

  • User can receive but unable to send

    We have Data Sync 1.2.5 Build 250 on a Xen VM SLES 11 SP2, connected to GW 2012 SP2 and everything is running smoothly EXCEPT for one user.
    They configured their GW email account on a Droid and on an IPad.
    The Data Sync server shows both devices and that they have recently sync'd.
    He is able to receive emails, but when he responds to them or creates a new email, neither one will send.
    So, I added his account to my iPhone, (which is already configured with my account).
    After adding him, I went into his account and replicated the same issue - receiving new emails but can not send any from my iPhone in his account.
    I then went into my account and I was able to send and receive on the same iPhone.
    This leads me to think that something is not right with his GroupWise account.
    I did run an analyze/fix on his account and I resync'd his devices in Data Sync, but that didn't resolve the issue (I know - overstating the situation, that's why I'm here!)
    I saw some suggestions about running an analyze/fix on the PO and then rebuild his account, but I wanted to get other suggestions if this doesn't work!
    Would deleting him from the Data Sync server, then adding him back fix it?
    Other suggestions?
    Thanks! (Stan)

    Have you checked the logs in /var/log/datasync to see if there are any
    issues there? I would expect some evidence at that level.
    Does a GWCheck/Contents of the user show any issues?

    The 100% means that the only messages this system has sent have been
    for this user. So clearly it is trying to sync and just hasn't caught
    up.
    http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7007285
    A thought is if this user has a problem or oversized message getting in
    the way, hence both a GWCheck on this account, and to see how big the
    big messages this user has are.
    For checking that size of messages, either get a sorted search folder
    on this account as per http://www.konecnyad.ca/andyk/bigmail.htm
    or the least user intrusive Step3 of

  • TS3899 I can't send yahoo messages on my iPhone. What do i do?

    I am receiving yahoo emails, but can't send them. How can I fix this?

    Victoria
    You need to delete the Yahoo account and reset it up.  I just did this for an iPhone running yahoo in my house.
    Settings
    > Mail Contacts etc
    > Select Yahoo account
    > Delete account
    Settings
    >Mail, Contacts etc
    > Add account
    > Select yahoo

    I can't send, delete or forward my work email.  I can only receive it. Any suggestions?

    Is it iCloud-Mail with POPmail-account?
    In this case it could be a problem, because Apple Support says:
    SSL is required for both IMAP and SMTP connection with iCloud. POP is not supported by iCloud. 

  • Can't send pictures via exchange email

    I just got my Galaxy S III.  I also have a Galaxy Note(1st gen).  The SIII is a lot faster in all aspects. 
    I'm having one issue though.  I am unable to email any pictures using my Corporate Exchange email account.  It just gets stuck in the Outbox and I get a notification that the email failed to send.  I can send other types of files as attachements.  I am able to send a picture using my hotmail account.  On my Note I am able to send pictures from my exchange account.
    Is their another setting in android that blocks this?  I've checked but I can't find one.

    I am having this issue with trying to send pictures from my email applications in my phone. I use Yahoo, but not the Yahoo app. I also tried to use my work email to attach the picture to and send. In both instances, Yahoo and work email, I get a "Failure " message in my outbox of the email application when I look to see if the photo sent. I have received pictures via text before, no problem. I also tried turning of bluetooth, even though where I am currently located there is no wifi/bluetooth to connect to.
    Thanks
