Can't send e-mails+attachments
I've read through past posts from people who are unable to send messages using Mail. I'm having a variation of this problem.
I'm using a .Mac account and the smtp.mac.com server. I seem to be able send simple text-only messages, but anything with an attachment, even if it's a small .txt file, gets stuck in the outbox, and I eventually receive the "unable to send mail using the SMTP server"-type message that others have reported. I've tried using Entourage and Thunderbird as well, with similar results.
Is there a reason my ISP would block only emails with attachments that come from an external SMTP? I'm brand new to OS X, so I'm probably overlooking something very obvious.
Thanks in advance

''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Can i send e-mail attachments with Nokia 9300?
Pls help me. I'v been trying mad ways to send an e-mail attachment using Yahoo and Google but to no avail. Is such possible with my device? Pls help.
Not by using the built in mail app only. The group feature doesn't exist in Apple's mail app. You need a third party app like this one.

or like this one.

Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open
Hello,
Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open when the recipient opens the message. Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open and sometimes I have to open them. Why is this?
Thanks

when the recipient opens the message.
No, fortunately.
Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open
This doesn’t make sense. What do you mean?
Why is this?
It isn’t. -
I have quickbooks software. I am traveling. I tried to send an invoice out, using the mac email (version 5.3) I can't send the mail out. I get a pop up asking for my password, I put the password in and it does not accept it. This is the 1st time I've had this problem.

Can not send e-mail in mac os x 10.4.11

I'm not sure I know what you mean by 'what settings are you using in the accounts part of mail preferences', but I'll give you as much information as I can in the hopes that some of it is responsive.
In "preferences" I select "accounts" and there are 3 listed:
'personal gmail' (IMAP)
'business gmail' (IMAP)
'Yahoo' (POP)
For each of the above, the "Account Information" tab gives:
description: [username]
email address: [correctly reflects my address]
full name: [my name]
Incoming mail server: imap.gmail.com
user name: [my username]
password: [*** - I've re-entered to ensure it is my true password]
outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.gmail.com:username
Is it all in the same format on the iphone?
This is the same information for the 2 gmail accounts, with the exception of the usernames differing. If I click "server settings" at the bottom, it reflects the outgoing mail server "smtp.gmail.com" server port 25, my correct user name and password.
Again, different names for the different accounts, right? And this is the same port etc. as you put into the iphone
All of the above information matches what I input into my iPhone, and it has worked fine since day 1, so I don't understand the malfunction.
Open /Applications/Utilities/Console. Make sure console.log and system.log are open (or see the File menu).
Try to send an email.
Look for new lines in the log files (it should scroll down automatically so the newest lines are at the end of the log at the bottom of the window). What do you see? (Erase or substitute for any personal info before posting.)
Do you use any firewall software or have you used third-party software or Terminal to configure the builtin firewall?

Can not send be-mail os10.9.4 server offline !!
can not send be-mail os10.9.4 server offline !!
Hey there mikeneiris,
It sounds like you are not able to send any emails because the account is showing as offline. I recommend these steps from the following article to help you get that going again:
Mail (Mavericks): If a mailbox is offline
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14925?viewlocale=en_US
To take an account online, click the lightning bolt icon. Or choose Mailbox > Online Status > Take [account name] Online, or Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online.
If you can’t take an account online, make sure you’re connected to the Internet. If a warning icon appears after the account name, click it for more information.
Use Connection Doctor
Some mailbox names can appear dimmed if you don’t have permission to access them, such as “public” mailboxes on a server, or if the mail server is unavailable.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling -

please help,

RoeeSee 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't send e-mail using Mail. Entourage works fine with same settings.
I can't send e-mail using Mail. Using exactly the same settings on Entourage everything works fine.
Until earlier today (for two days only) I couldn't send either. I was advised to run Keychain Access First Aid which spotted "Item “pop3.freezone.co.uk” is a duplicate; this item's port attribute is not set" and then repaired it (Freezone is the name of my ISP). Now I can send Mail but not receive.
Even stranger is that until today I could receive Mail on one of my two accounts, while only Mail from one person got through on the other. Now no mail is arriving.
I tried swapping the plist file for an older version from a backup of my system. That didn't work either.
I'm tearing my hair out! Any suggestions?No.
