Can't send mail out through apple mail

try to send out mail and get box saying can't find server smtp-server.maine.rr.com
TWC put in their server but it's even worse. How do I go back and get apple mail to let me send my mail out?

Hello,
Same story here (see my other post - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1220979&tstart=0).
This is a serious bug Apple. How about some help? I'm willing to provide logs, access to my machine, whatever you need to get the job done.
Thanks in advance,
Bryan

  • Im trying to send out a word doc and it tells me I need to set up an account with enterage. I already have my email set up with regular mail? How can I send it out through my email that is active?

    Im trying to send out a word document via email. It tells me it cannot send because I have not yet set up an account with enterage. My email is active already with Apple regular mail program. How can I send it out through reg mail?

    Save the Word document. Create your email in your normal mail application (Mail?), click on the add attachment icon (the paperclip if you are using Mail). Navigate to where you saved the Word file and select it. It should now appear as an attachment in your email. If you are sending it to a PC user and you are using Mail make sure 'Send Windows-friendly attachments' is selected in the edit menu. And if you don't want the attachment to display inline within the body of the email Control+Click on it and select 'view as icon'.

  • Email frozen, connection doctor say ok but can't send or receive through apple mail. Works ok when opened using safari

    My apple e-mail has suddenly stopped working. Connection doctor say everything is fine (no connection problems) If accessed through safari account works fine. Also have had to "force quit" on a number of occassions. Any help much appreciated.
    Am a bit miffed with apple wanting payment to fix something that appears to be a bug on a machine that is less than 1 yr old

    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
    If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
    Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

    I can't send mails out of my work mail account on IPad or iPhone. I usually get error message that the server does not accept relay messages. I only get this problem on IOS devices only but on other platform I don't . Please can anyone help fix this?

  • After Leopard upgrade can't send mail in Apple Mail with dot mac account.

    Just upgraded to Leopard and now I can't send mail through Apple Mail. Checked smtp and that's OK. How do I check what ports are open? That may be the problem. I looked at the Apple trouble shooting page and did everything there except the port check.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Lou

    Fixed my own problem. I put in the SMTP address but didn't save. Once I saved it worked.

  • HT1277 I can recieve emails but I can't send them out.  The blue bar at the bottom left of the Mail page gets half way across and then the pop-up "Cannot send message using the server" comes up?  What do I do?

    I have my Yahoo Mail "poped" over to Apple Mail.  I can recieve emails but I can't send them out.  The blue bar at the bottom left of the Mail page gets half way across and then the pop-up "Cannot send message using the server" comes up?  What do I do?

    Your outgoing mail server is different than your incoming server. Usually the outgoing mail server will have smtp in it. I noticed yours said "cannot send message using the server mail.wavecable.com". That sounds like an incoming mail server. Try setting your outgoing mail server to smtp.wavecable.com
    I hope that helps.

  • How can I send purchase order through SAP mail ?

    How can I send purchase order through SAP mail ? Can any one explain whts the NACE settings?

    just  do it as  <b>Anji reddy</b> said to you   ...or else  ...  in the purchase  order trascation  ...print it  ... so that  it will generate the spool request  for that  purchase  order  ....
    so the   the belwo program is for sending <b>the Spool   Request  data   as  Email  to  any Email id  ...</b>
    The code below demonstrates how to retrieve a spool request and email it as a PDF document. Please note for the below program to process a spool request the program must be executed in background otherwise no spool request will be created. Once you have had a look at this there is an modified version of the program which works in both background and foreground. Also see transaction SCOT for SAPConnect administration.

  • Postfix/smtp[8437] Operation timed out can't send mail to 1 address

    server 10.4.5 running mail, filesharing and website.
    The mail server has been up for months working fawlessly. We have one address (domain) where we can't send mail, and users at that address can't send us mail.
    All other mail functions on both ends seem to be functioning fine.
    They seem to be running exchange as a mail server, but i don't have other details from their side. DNS/MX records all look like you would expect.
    This has me stumped.
    i turned debug level loging on and got the following smtp message written to the log when i tried to mail to an address at that domain.
    Feb 23 20:45:10 fileserver postfix/smtp[8437]: 775401AFD61: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=31, status=deferred (connect to anhc-mail.anhc.org[24.237.2.213]: Operation timed out)

    Yes, good luck to them.
    relay=none
    doesn't look so good.
    Of course, a successful outgoing message should look something more like:
    Apr 8 11:41:05 server postfix/smtp[2300]: F1D4D3B8A27: to=<[email protected]>, relay=mail.someobfuscatedserver.com[6x.20x.148.1x6], delay=5, status=sent (250 2.0.0 k38FYfDS023848 Message accepted for delivery)
    I take it you can send to any/all other mail addresses (servers) ?
    Here's a thought:
    Some time ago, I had to edit the helo_checks config of postfix, for a windows mailserver because their AntiVirus was horribly mangling their outgoing mail, helo-ing as <fix-your-dns>.local
    Point being that .local anything is not a viable tld for anything in the public realm, and certainly won't work with the rest of the world in terms of DNS.
    That might be the work of Norton's break-it-for-you addon for Windows Exchange mailservers, not sure.
    Please post the output of:
    postconf -n
    on your server,
    and the mail.log file content when they try to send you an email (confirm via telephone and watch for it).

  • Can't send mail out...and can't figure it out

    Hi, after 4 hours or researching, I have finally eliminated the setting issues down to one, can't send mail with outside (not within the company) recipient address. I get Relay access denied.

  • Can't Send Mail Via HughesNet SMTP Server

    After installing 10.5 I find that I can receive mail from my ISP (HughesNet) but I can't send mail through the smtp server. I've tried every setting possible and even duplicated the settings off my wife's 10.4.10 iMac and I still can't send mail. All I see is that the smtp service is "Offline."
    Fortunately, I have a .Mac account so I can send mail using that smtp server. But I'd like to be abel to use my HughesNet server.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    My mom uses RoadRunner by Time Warner. She was able to receive email using Leopard and Mail but not send. SMTP server was the big problem like everyone else here experienced. We finally were able to get it to work using many ideas here. What we did:
    1) Delete com.apple.mail.plist from the User/Library/Preferences folder (BACK UP YOUR EMAIL FIRST)
    2) Open Mail and create a new account but disable the automatic set-up feature, put your info in manually.
    3) Uncheck " Use only this server" from the outgoing mail
    4) Under the Advanced tab on Mail Prefs "port set to 25", Uncheck "SSL" box, and uncheck "Use Authentication"
    5) Now hit Create
    It took Mail about 20 minutes to contact the SMTP server, but it did and now I can send and receive Mail without any problems on her computer.
    Bad Apple...stop criticizing MS and Vista when your own house is not in order yet. Hope this helps someone out there.....

  • Suddenly can't send mail with Comcast.

    Just thought I'd add my experience to the chorus. Use Mail on a G4 PB running latest version of Tiger with Comcast as ISP. Few days ago kept getting the message that port 25 timed out. I questioned Comcast, and got a standard reply to try port 587, which I did, and which works. I can now send mail through port 587.
    Question though: Is this a Comcast problem, or an Apple Mail problem. It seems like it cannot be a coincidence that "can't send mail" seems to be a hot topic all of a sudden, and that it involves various ISP's and platforms. I haven't heard the word "virus" mentioned.

    In my mind, it's a silly attempt by ISPs to limit/cut off SPAM, not that that is a silly idea in and of itself, but changing the Port number isn't going to last very long, add to that not notifying Users/Paying customers before hand is negligent if not criminal!
    The Spammers probably knew and adjusted to the change before the first Customer figured it out.

  • Can't send mail on iOS 5 devices with iCloud

    A long time ago I signed up for a .Mac trial to use that address with iChat. The trial expired, and, as expected, the address continued to work with iChat, though it no longer functioned as an email address. It then came to be my Apple ID. Now, having set that Apple ID up for use with iCloud, my iOS devicess are having trouble sending, and only sending email from my iCloud address. The reason is this: I logged into <username>@mac.com for iCloud (as that's my Apple ID), and everything set up right except the mail address that iOS Mail thinks I have. It thinks the mail address for the iCloud account is <username>@mac.com. When I send mail to <username>@me.com, my iOS devices get it just fine, but when I try to send mail back, it tries to send it from the @mac.com address, and therefore fails as that is not a valid email address.
    I've tried to go into the settings and change the email address that it uses for iCLoud, but with no luck. I see a place to change it, but it is grayed out and won't let me select it and bring up a keyboard to change it.
    Is there any way to tell it that it assumed the wrong email address for my iCloud? Or is there no way to send iCloud email from my iOS devices?
    Thanks in advance!
    P.S. I can send mail via iCloud from the web app and from Apple Mail (OS X Lion), but not from iOS devices because of this glitch. I can also send mail from iOS devices using other email accounts (Gmail, Yahoo).

    I found a work around that works.   Got to Settings...Icloud....account......advanced....outgoing mail server.....
    Add an "other" server.
    Host Name p01-smtp.mail.me.com
    Put in your me.com email address as username and your Apple ID password
    SSL is on
    Authentication is password
    Server port 587
    This worked for me.....I will use this until the bug is fixed.  (you may need to use p02, p03 etc)   Don't make this server your primary.   Leave it in "on" status in the other category.
    Good luck

  • Can't send mail... after 4 months of using it

    I'm stumped... help me out please.
    When i send a mail out, this message pops up, "Error : This Message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered. Sending the message content to the server failed."
    So it's still in my mailbox. But then, it shows up in my gmail account and on my blackberry as a sent mail, but the receiver never gets it. Also, i can still send mail from both my blackberry and gmail.com... just not from Apple Mail.
    What's going on?

    Sometimes an ISP provider blocks one of your incoming
    Mail ports and "won't notify you". ( Why? probably it's their protection software )
    In my case Comcast blocked my Port 25 and my Outgoing kept bouncing.
    Incoming was fine.
    Make sure when you change your Port to 587,
    You also check "ON" the Secure Sockets Layer box right underneath,
    Then change Authentication: to Password
    Then enter your name and password
    and click OK.
    The reps at most of the providers
    are useless and won't tell you
    the second part of the solution.
    It took me 2 days and 4 reps
    at Comcast to find this out
    and 10 hours of trying to
    clean my Mac...
    which they will always
    blame.
    Best of Luck, Tom

  • Can't Send MAIL..... again

    hey...
    can;t send mail..
    10.4.10 on a macbook..
    can send mail on my .MAC account, but my MAIL 2.0 is no good. it used to work fine...
    i travel for a living, could the different log-on places have something to do with it.?
    tried all the fixes on the Apple help site, no avail.
    using port 587, removed and re-entered account, internet connection is fine...
    want to use MAIL to send pix from my iPhoto's...
    also, anyone know how to change the name in my account? somehow the spelling of my name is wrong, and every email i send says from 'blank' and it is wrong. looked at every piece of account info and they are all correct. where is the info for FROM: in an email stored...
    cheers..!!!
    ian

    I'm having the same problem. I moved to a different apartment. I think my situation is this; my Mail says home and has my .mac account email address listed. My .mac account says .mac and has my .mac email address listed.
    I've tried to change the Mail "home" so it doesn't say ,mac, but I haven't figured out how and when I change the email and server settings it tell me that it is an invalid directory.
    So it's a circular puzzle and I can't seem to get out.
    Is this your problem too? If not, do you know how to fix this one?

  • Can't send mail when connected to vpn

    I'm hooked up with a private vpn service using OpenVpn. Everything works beautifully -- except that I can't send mail (receiving is no problem) because the SMTP ports offered through Mail 4.5 (ports 25, 465, 587) are blocked by many VPN providers as an anti-spam measure. I can't use port 993 with SSL because I live in Monaco, which has one ISP -- and it does not provide or support secure email (which is one of the reasons I want the VPN).
    Is there another port I can select for SMTP, or some configuration tricks I'm missing? Thanks...:)

    Hello Brian,
    Basically this is the VPN group:
    crypto isakmp client configuration group open
     key (something)
     dns 192.168.1.1 8.8.8.8
     domain something.com
     pool SDM_POOL_1
     save-password
     backup-gateway 192.168.1.1
     max-users 5
     netmask 255.255.255.0
     banner ^Cyou have connected to the vpn-ings!.  well done!    ^
    I see that you are doing tunnel all, and you are not split tunneling on this configuration, what you can do is to use split tunnel, under this configuration as follow:
    ip access-list extended SPLIT_TUNNEL
    permit ip XXXXX XXXXX 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
    XXXXX --> are the inside subnets
    Then under this:
    crypto isakmp client configuration group open
    acl SPLIT_TUNNEL
    This will allow you to have access to the internal subnets through the tunnel and have access to internet through the internet connection on your computer.
    For further details take a look to this document:
    - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/routers/3600-series-multiservice-platforms/91193-rtr-ipsec-internet-connect.html
    Don't use Any on your ACL statements for split tunneling purposes.
    Let me know how it works out!
    Please don't forget to rate and mark as correct the helpful Post!

  • Using OS Mavericks can't send mail on hotmail?

    I can't send mail on hotmail using os x mavericks, why?

    I also was having the SMTP (offline) issue for Gmail and Comcast after upgrading to Maverick but not immediately.   I read through all the posts.  I was not seeing a common thread for a solution so I decided to bite the bullet and call Apple(if it costs, it costs).  I set up a call back.  They called me in 15 minutes, set up a view of my screen and proceeded to troubleshoot.  He started by going to "Window" "connection doctor".  Observed the red dots and descriptions as being a username/password issue.  Then went to "mail","Preference", account icon and entered the gmail 2-step verification password generated by Gmail and before clicking done (on the Gmail website),clicked on the "SMTP Mail server" box and chose "edit SMTP server list". In the window that appeared also entered the same Gmail generated password there as well.  We then tested by going to the "Connection Doctor" getting green dots for both incoming and outgoing Gmail entries.  Next test was sending email to myself.  It worked.  We did the corresponding procedure for the Comcast account.  It took 25 minutes and cost nothing.  I was surprised at the price since my iMac is 4 years old.  I hope this lasts and I don't get really good at this procedure.
