Can't send email after restoring original settings

Running 3.0, my iPhone was working just fine until yesterday, including being able to send and receive email. Then today I could neither send nor receive email, update the weather forecast, or use Safari to connect to the internet. In an attempt to solve all those problems (Why do they occur!?) I restored the original settings. Now everything works, including receiving email, except that I am not able to send email. When I try to send email I get a message saying the following:
Cannot Send Mail
Check the settings for the outgoing servers in Settings > Mail, contacts, and Calendars.
I've checked the settings for outgoing servers and they are the same as they have always been, and the same as what I have for Mail on my computer. So what am I to do?

P.S. My $600 iPhone has certainly been a disappointment.

What email service provider are you using?
RoadRunner
If you haven't already, try to delete the account from the iPhone and then add it again.
I just deleted the account from my iPhone and then added the account. I am now able to send email again. Thank you, Jason.
Do you see the issue while connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi, 3G, and EDGE?
How do I determine how I'm connected?

After restoring original settings can phone numbers be retrieved

after restoring original settings, can phone numbers be retrieved?

You can sync them from the computer to the iPhone using iTunes.
You could also restore the iPhone from 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.

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

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.

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.

Can't send emails after installing 10.9

After installing OS X v10.9 I can not send emails. Nothing has changed on the server level. But in the setting it keeps showing up with a TLS and does not have anything to select to make changes. What should I do?

Can't send email after updating to iOS 6

Apple update has made a useable and great device now useless. I use my iPad for work exchange email and now can't send or receive. Why release a product without checking for major bugs like this. Have had to delete all emails in outbox and constantly have to manually I close app to reset. Not happy apple!

Can't send emails after migration from Vista PC to W7 PC. Tried Mozbackup and Windows Easy Transfer. Settings have transferred ok, it just won't send emails.

I recently migrated my Tbird from a Vista PC to a W7 PC using Mozbackup. Transfer was fine with all the settings transferred apparently correctly. But now I can receive emails but not send them. Sent emails show in 'Sent Items' but are not received the other end. Also tried the migration using the Beta 1 version of Mozbackup and also Windows Easy Transfer with the same result. IMAP and POP3 accounts are both affected. Neither can send emails. I get no error messages nor any bounceback.
Found on one forum that AVG can block outgoing emails so altered the AVG settings which seemed to solve the problem. The next morning the problem was back. I uninstalled AVG completely but it made no difference. I do have MicroSoft Sec Essentials but the problem was there before that was installed.
Using the BT Home Hub 5 on BT Infinity broadband. It can't be the router though as the old PC was sending emails fine. Although I did have the suspect AVG settings, removing it has not solved the problem.
The outgoing email settings seem to be fine. Any thoughts?

Can't send emails after Mountain Lion update

After I updated from Lion to Mountain Lion, I could receive messages from my service provider's account, but I could not send messages. Mail Connection Doctor showed the information "Could not connect to SMTP server" for both SMTP servers, and when I try to send a message, I see that each SMTP server now has "(Offline)" after its name. I can still send from my iPad to the same servers, and also from the service provider's webmail. I have rebooted everything (Mac, wi-fi, router) to no avail, and I have followed all advice in Support articles such as TS3276. I have changed absolutely no settings anywhere from the Lion system, and a check of all settings shows that they match the printout I made of the Lion settings. I do not use iCloud for mail, so that server is disabled in Email Accounts, although the system opens iCloud on port 993 for Contacts, etc.
Below is part of the output from the Doctor, which shows an error "503 wrong state for EHLO command" on ports 25 and 587. Researching this message didn't really help me, and, as I say above, I have changed no settings between OS versions, so I assume that something must have changed with Mountain Lion. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting the same behaviour with my ISP's mail server:

HT4623 How can I send email after changing my AOL password on my iPad2?

After I changed my AOL password due to the latest spoofing scam, I cannot send any emails from my iPad2. I have gone to settings and changed my email password. The latest attempt to resolve this to go to the advanced page and I clicked on sent and now sent is no longer working. I think I've just made matters worse for myself. I can go to the AOL app and both receive and send emails, but I want to send directly from my iPad mail feature. Help!

in settings, mail, go through the setting for sending again. you need to restate your password. make sure the server name and port are correct. It may be simpler to delete the account and start over - ( you mail is still on the aol server - it will not be lost)
If you are not real sure of the settings, simply google aol mail settings, and you should get a clear answer.
since you are receiving, you have the right password in place - you just need to reconnect to the sending server.

I can't send email after updating to iOS5

After updating to iOS5 I am having a great deal of difficulty sending email, something that never happened before. When I hit "send" I get a message "The connection to the outgoing server "smtp-server.maine.rr.com" failed. However the kicker is that after a period of a few minutes to a few hours, the message does go out. Help!

I would delete the mail account from your settings and re-add it. The problem is that the server data was somehow lost when your iPhone was upgraded.
