Can't send mail with Mail application

Hi everyone,
First, let me appologize if I'm not very understandable, because I'm French.
Here is my issue : I just bought a MacBook Air, and I'd like to use Mail, but I can't send my e-mail, I can only receive it. I'm using Live, so I configured Mail like this :
Please help me, I'm hopeless.
Thank you.

On the second screen, try "587" for the SMTP port instead.

  • 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

  • Receiving mail, but can't send mail with attachments?

    Hello,
    I can't send mails anymore, I have been able to send some without any attachments (i.e. reply doesn't work as it automatically attaches the original text). This started 3 days ago. Also, my mail doesn't seem to recognize powerpoint and word docs., but I a know the people who have send me such files do not have VISTA. When I choose "open with" then it works. So I have 2 problems, one being moe urgent then the other.
    1) can't send mail with attachments
    2) .doc (word), .pps (powerpoint)attachments are not always recognized.
    thank you all!!!

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works

  • Can't send mail with server -- upgrade OS?

    I have a new MB, so have been setting things up. In the course of all this, I realized, what with checking settings, etc., that I can easily send mail from the new laptop, which is running whatever the latest OS is -- I think that's 15.5.5, but I have nearly constant difficulties with Mail on my desktop, which is running 15.5.2. I keep getting -- but not always -- messages saying mail can't be sent using the selected server; do I want to try another server or try later, or what. But on the laptop -- I don't get that at all.
    I did a search on the Apple site and its recommendation? Upgrade the OS. Now, I can certainly do that, though I always hold my breath for fear something will go wrong and I'll break something that wasn't broken, so to speak.
    Is anyone else having this issue? Did upgrading the OS stop it? I probably will have to, because I really do need the Mail program to work as it should. I'm getting ready to move to it from Entourage, but I can't if I can't send mail.

    I suddenly started having the can't send mail problem yesterday, and I'm on 10.5.5, so upgrading the OS is not a fix. I followed all the directions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1307?viewlocale=en_US
    and that did not work. But it might, if quitting is done at the right time....
    I don't know what fixed it, and I'm not sure if it will remain fixed (last night I fixed it on my own, only to find when I started up this morning that it wasn't working again), but today I followed the advice from another discussion to delete the outgoing server (in prefs/accounts/outgoing pulldown menu) and make a new one... make sure to delete all mail that is pending (anything in outbox save as draft and delete)... and to quit. In other words - follow the instructions on the support page or some of the other discussions, but quit before trying to send again. The other thing I did was do a software upgrade - there was something for airport and a security fix that I installed. Whether it was doing just the right stuff in just the right order or if it was the software installs that moved things along, I can't say. By the looks of it, this seems to be a long time issue for Apple Mail, though I've been using it for years without issue.

    Hi, i am having the same problem. this is what i have noticed.
    I have 2 x imac's and 2 x macbook air's
    i upgraded the 2 macbook air's and 1 of the imac's to Mountain Lion, all these have problems acessing sites that require you to login .
    the one remaining imac is still running lion and works perfect.
    i am using a dlink router with DD-WRT firmware, i tested teathering from my iphone and i can log into websites fine using the newly upgraded mac's.
    It's not a wireless issue as my imac is using an ethernet connection.
    is there a compatibility issue with some routers.

    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 mail with IMAP

    Hi,
    I have two different IMAP accounts, and I can't send mail with either of them. I receive it just fine, but can't send. One of them just switched to ESMTP (I'm not entirely sure what that means), and said that many mail programs are not yet compatible with it. I know that both accounts can send, as I can send from them on the web.
    I have tried switching from port 25 to port 587, with no luck. Regardless of what I do, the program displays a window saying, "Sending the message content to the server failed." I haven't been able to send for a little over a week now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Tonight I have been suddenly unable to send e-mail from my mac.com address.
    The problem is the same whether I try to send from my G4 laptop running OS 10.4, or my eMac running OS 10.3.9 , or from .mac web mail.
    The alert I am receiving says: "The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server."
    I am using the SMTP outgoing mail server, not POP.
    I can still receive e-mail with no difficulty.
    I have changed no settings.
    What's up?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Can't send Mail on dial up Earthlink?

    We have set up a sub account for a grandson on Apple's Mail application. After many problems finally got Mail to receive message but can't send mail.
    He gets the message: "his email earthlink.net can not be contaced on port 25, message delivery failed." The primary account works well.
    He is on an eMac 10.3 with dial up to earthlink.net

    Although I have cable modem service at home with Time Warner (RoadRunner), I've kept an old Earthlink dial-up account for use when traveling in case a high speed wired or wireless connection isn't available which is becoming less common.
    If Earthlink is your ISP used for connecting to the internet via dial-up access, I use the following Earthlink SMTP settings for my Earthlink account.
    Outgoing Mail Server: smtpauth.earthlink.net
    Server Port: 25 (which should work if connecting to the internet via Earthlink dial-up access).
    Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): Off or not selected.
    Authentication: MD5 Challenge-Response
    User Name: The entire Earthlink email address.
    Password: The account's password - the same password used to check the incoming mail server for new messages.

    Hello,
    Certain Thunderbird problems can be solved by peforming a ''Clean Reinstall''. This means you remove Thunderbird's Program Files then reinstall Thunderbird. Please follow these steps:
    #Download the latest version of Thunderbird from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download is complete, close all Thunderbird windows (Click Exit/Quit from the menu button on the right).
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #** C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #** C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Thunderbird from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Thunderbird with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Thunderbird on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ Thunderbird Download Page], simply remove the folder ''thunderbird'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Thunderbird:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to open Thunderbird after clicking the Finish button.
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Thunderbird's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Thunderbird data, including but not limited to, extensions,emails, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.
