Can receive, but cant send mail

Any ideas? I can receive but cant send mail. It says..
The SMTP server “mailhost.zen.co.uk” rejected the password for user
Have mail version 4.4
Many thanks

Hi,
I would double check your settings and port numbers.
Incoming Mail (pop3) server mailhost.zen.co.uk and port for Incoming mail (POP3) is 995
Outgoing Mail (smtp) server mailhost.zen.co.uk and port for Outgoing mail (SMTP) is 587 
Also make sure under SMTP that the outgoing server requires as secure connection (SSL) box is checked as well as the incoming POP3 (SSL) box.
Can you say if this is a recent issue or one that has been there since setup?

Can receive but not send mail

Because of buyout, had to switch over from Adelphia to Comcast this weekend. With the help of Comcast, reset Mac mail on both G4 and G3 running OS 10.4.9. Got everything finally working Sunday, but today, G4 will not send.
Error: "Message could not be delivered, will remain in Outbox until it can. Connection to server "smtp.comcast.net" on port 110 timed out." Any ideas?
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi,
I, too, got caught up in this Comcast busines. When I reset my Mail preferences per their instructions, I found that I could receive e-mail but not send it. After spending almost an hour with TWO of their so-called technical people, I was told that mine was an OEM problem and there was nothing else that Comcast could do for me.
YET, by changing the server port from Comcast's recommended 587 setting back to 25 (which it had been when I was with Time-Warner), I could then send e-mails!
Relieved but irritated,
Bill

Am traveling; can receive but not send Mail

We just came to Peru, and have an apartment here with a wireless connection in it, provided by a cable company. I use Verizon as my server, sending and receiving mail with the Mail program. I've traveled to several countries and have never had any trouble sending or receiving mail. But I can't send mail here, and wonder if I need to put something different in the outgoing mail settings of Mail. Or do you think this has something to do with my having installed Snow Leopard? Don't know much about this, but would appreciate some help.
Thanks!

You may want to set your email to send using that company's outgoing mail server - to get the connection info you need, contact them for the details, ask the neighbor next door or the computer shop across the street and/or check on the internet using Google to see what others may have to say about the same situation in your location.
As an example, if the local service provider name is 'PeruISP', you would search Google for:
Peru ISP outgoing email setting (or) Peru ISP sending email
....you get the idea.
The point is that Verizon clearly isn't working there for you, so you need to know the correct outgoing email server name etc. before you can get your email going again.
Good luck in any case.

After OS upgrate, my Mail (Version 4.3) can receive -but not send mail !?

I just upgraded my I Mac to OS X 10.6. Everything is working well except my MAIL Version 4.3. I’m able to receive mail and look it up, but cannot send it out.

I called Apple and they walked me through some things--found duplicate outgoing servers
It's hard to deal with such a thing in a bulletin board environment. The possibility of that didn't occur to me.
Everything is working great now; both incoming & outgoing!
I'm glad you were successful.
My Apple support person sent me this link to forward to you and the boards: http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/
That could be useful for others in the future. I've bookmarked it.

Can receive but not send mail while traveling

Hello:
wondering if there is a solution to this recurring problem. My email address is through my website, via my cable service, and I read it using Mail without a problem. However, when I'm traveling and using internet service other than my home, I can read my mail through Mail - but not send it. When I attempt to mail from the Mail window, it starts to send from my Outbox, and then fails, and delivers the message: "Cannot send using the server smtp [cable service name].net Use the popup menu below to try a different outgoing mail server."
I can successfully send if I log onto my mail on my website, but it's more steps. Is there a solution to this, or is this just the nature of using outside networks?

Hi BDAqua;
So can I just change the port number in my Mail>Pref>Accounts>Advanced pane, and be able to mail while traveling? Or does that create some kind of conflict with my current mail/cable provider settings? Port is currently set to 110. (It does say "check with your sysadmin before changing any of these settings". Alas.)

Please Help Can't send emails but can receive I've tried service books I get the save to draft when I want to send :-(

On your BlackBerry device, go to:
1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
2. Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site:
From your handheld device:   http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15402
Go to the Personal Email Set Up icon and log in. Then under Help!, select Service Books, then select Send service Books.
From your desktop PC: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02830
North American Carriers - scroll down to select your carrier
WorldWide Carriers - Find your carrier on the list
3. With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot. This reboot, even if you have already done this, is often needed to install the service books.

I can receive but not send mail from remote wifi connections

i cna recieve but not send email from remote wifi locations

Check with your email provider for their smtp settings when using a remote Internet connection.

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.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Firefox updated with ALOT

Firefox does not install a firewall.

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.

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.

Why can I receive but not send mail?

Why can I receive but not send mail?

With sparse information you give I would venture that you have not set up the correct Outgoing Mail Server settings in Mail>Preferences>Accounts. Contact your ISP for their set up.

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.

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.
