Can't send email through Apple mail

I suddenly am not able to send email through Apple mail on my MacBookPro.  ipad and iphone still working.  I can also send email through att online.  My email is @att.net, and the message says "The server cannot be contacted on port 465".  (That is the proper port)

Hi,
Here are some suggestions,
1. Try downloading another free email client to see if it works from there, just to eliminate other possibilities.
2. Try removing the account in mail settings, and adding it again with the correct settings.
Let me know what you find!

  • Since 2 days can't send emails via Apple Mail

    Hi,
    for 2 days now I'm unable to send emails from Apple Mail.
    I have an Hotmail account (using POP3) and a WEB.DE account (using IMAP) connected with Mail. Every time I try to send an email Mail tells me the SMTP server are offline. My mobile.me account though works properly.
    To exclude problems with certain ports on my WLAN router I tried to use Thunderbird on my Windows PC with these accounts. Sending emails this way wasn't a problem at all.
    Also deleting all accounts and setting them up again didn't make a change...
    Even changing the OS back from Lion to SL hasn't made an impact.
    Any suggestions what might cause this weird problem?

    Hello P:
    Since each one is different, I suspect the best answer to your question lies with your ISP.

  • Can't Send email w/Apple Mail connected to Exchange Server 2007

    I've tried to connect to our OWA Exchange server w/Entourage and nobody can help me to make it work. I can connect w/Apple Mail and recieve fine, but I can't send email. Any ideas or suggestions on how to allow me to send out email w/Apple Mail??

    Hello:
    I have the same issue. I am on a Macbook Pro 2 Gb RAM Rev A. OS X 10.5.3 apple mail 3.3. I have setup a corporate exchange owa (2007) account and can receive emails. I cannot send any from this exchange account. on the same Mac I have Entourage and it can receive and send emails. What is the difference and what do I have to do to make Apple Mail work and be able to send emails as well.
    Thanks,

  • Can't send email using Apple Mail with Verizon

    My Verizon settings in my Apple Mail program will not send mail. I am using my correct password and userid for authentication. I use outgoing.verizon.net server and port 587. Should I be using a different port setting?

    port 110 is the port number for the incoming (pop) mail server, port 25 is the port number for the outgoing (smtp) mail server. If they were insisting that you use port 110 for the outgoing (smtp) mail server, that is because the tech support rep with whom you spoke was not a very clueful person. These are established standard port numbers for those services.

  • Can't send email from Apple mail using hosted exchange since upgrade to 10.5.8

    I've got a client who just upgraded to 10.8. Since doing so he can recieve email but not send it for a hosted exchange account. He can send and recieve from his personal pop account. It is a wireless connection.  I have tried the following without any success:
    1. Verified all the config info was correct (server password etc) - no change
    2. Deleted and re-added the account - same result
    3. Deleted keychain data and readed the account - no change.
    4. Ran disk utility (why not?) - no change
    5. Removed an internet sharing app called open garden - no change
    6. Installed 10.8.1 - no change
    After trying all of this when we start mail everything looks good and then the outbound server abruptly goes "offline". The exchange host says there are no issues on their end. Internet works too. Email delivers/sends to his iPhone, iPad, and a home iMac that was also upgraded to 10.8.
    Anyone with other ideas? This one has me stumped.
    -Jonathan

    I have the exact same issue, but with a standard IMAP account and SMTP.  My iPhone can send out, using the EXACT same settings, from the exact same WiFi connection...but the 10.8 MacBook cannot send at all.  The only account I can send out on is my iCloud account. 
    I have also tried all the steps above...no luck.
    I have also turned off all network filters and firewalls...no luck.  (And as I said above, my iPhone is on the exact same WiFi connection and using the exact same settings, and it can send fine.)
    Other messages I've found via Google have suggested simply forcing the SMTP server to use Port 25, but that didn't work for me either.

  • I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4.  I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect.  Suggestions?

    I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4.  I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect.  Suggestions?

    I think it's trying to open it in a gMail eMail & is losing your gMail password that it needs log into gMail, but not 100% positive.
    Have you tried Right clicking or Control+click on the eMail link & choose Copy? Works on some, not others.

  • HT1694 Can't send emails through Hotmail account

    This just started.  I can receive emails, but can't send emails through Hotmail account. iPhone says I need to check my settings (password).  I have correct password in settings.  Any help?

    Hello reedstrom,
    Sorry to hear you are not able to send emails from your Hotmail account.  Sending emails is a very important feature of the iPhone, and the fourth section in the following tutorial has steps for checking your Outgoing Mail Server settings.

  • HTC One--can't send email through GoDaddy

    I was searching for a reason why my husband's HTC One can't send email through GoDaddy's smtp server and came across a locked thread that I can't paste in this post. None of the suggestions worked for me. In checking GoDaddy's site, there was a suggestion to log into the Mobile Mail, which I did. Now I just have a shortcut to that website on the phone. I was never able to get the smtp settings to work on his phone. I just thought someone might like to see what finally worked for us.

  • Can't send email through my aol mail on my iPad 2 after updating to iOS 7

    I had to update m iPad because I was no longer able to work a lot of my apps because they kept telling me that there was an update that I had to do in order to even work my apps!  I was very reluctant to do it in the first place fearing that I would loose a lot of my pics, videos and or more!  Anyway so the other day I sat down and finally did it.  After updating my iPad 2 to the new operating system of iOS 7 now I cannot send emails through my aol mail on my iPad.  I tried putzing with the settings for smtp and to no avail nothing,  I then decided well maybe downloading the aol app would help but still not good enough because it takes up so much room that I had to delete some apps just to get it.  I had since deleted the aol app and am still trying to figure out why I keep getting the message I am getting is incorrect] hen it gives me two options which are option 1) Settings and option 2) Cancel.  I am in need of assistance here because I can receive mail but cannot send it.  Oh and I am able to send mail through my other email addresses on my iPad mail including my me.com and iCloud.com as well as two others but am not able to send through aol.  I am loosing my patience with apple very quickly as one why did I have to update the system and why am I forced to update my apps which I feel is completely ridiculous in the first place.  Everything was fine until I had to do that and now I cannot keep my iPad on for more then an hour when the battery drains so quickly now because I guess it takes up so much unneeded space!  PLEASE HELP ME!

    Hello, PriestessJeanann. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is an article I would recommend going through when experiencing issues with mail.  The usual fix would be to delete the email account in question and add this account via the preset AOL option.  I would also recommend checking with your email provider for security procedures such as two-step verification as this could cause this issue.

  • Still can't send emails through Mail for my Hotmail Account!!!

    Hi,
    It's been weeks now without being able to send email from my 'Mail' programme which is linked to my Hotmail account.
    All I get is a message coming up saying:
    'Cannot send message using the server Hotmail'
    'Connections to the server "smtp.live.com" on the default ports timed out'
    'Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click 'Try Later' to leave the message in your outbox until it can be sent'
    Where I have the option to choose an outgoing mail server the only choice I have is 'Hotmail' which displays as 'Offline'
    What the **** is going on?????
    Is this to do with Hotmail now changing to 'Outlook'???
    Help!!

    Hey,
    I found this worked for me, just check your hotmail settings are as follows
    You change your POP to IMAP like this
    Outlook.com does support IMAP and SMTP.
    Incoming server:
    IMAP: imap-mail.outlook.com
    Port: 993
    Encrypted Connection: SSL
    Outgoing server:
    SMTP: smtp-mail.outlook.com
    Port: 25 or 587
    Encrypted Connection: TLS
    Username: Your Username
    Password: Your Password
    This won't work on mac os x mail unless you disable pop in your outlook.com account first. If you have mac os x mail, and you don't disable pop in your outlook.com account first, mail will automatically setup pop and smtp.

    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.

  • Send email through Yahoo mail or Gmail with Java

    I have a java email program that can take a mail host name , port number and then send an email, but I don't want to use the mail host at work, I wonder if I can send email through my Yahoo Mail or Gmail account with Java, do they have any Java API that my program can log me in and send emails ? Any sample code available ? Thanks.
    Frank

    Thanks for reminding me, I did some search on "Yahoo" and "Gmail". For Yahoo someone posted some code that didn't work, for gmail, there seems to be a solution for sending email from command line. I wonder if I can send full fledged email : with CC, BCC, Attachment, Html email with images inside ...
    I've done it with a local mail host, but how to do it with Yahoo or Gmail ?

    Have you read the JavaMail FAQ? Search for "Yahoo" and "Gmail".
