Cannot send mail from my hotmail account on my iphone 4s

i bought a iphone 4s and set up my hotmail account through the Mail setting - Add accout - Hotmail. I have never been able to send mail through this set up. i have deleted the account and re-setup the account several times and had no success. I am able to recieve email but this is still useless if I cannot reply. Is there anyone else with this problem? can anyone help me?
I love this phone, but this is definately a major downfall and I am really %&#@...... unhappy.

I was having trouble emailing from Gmail on my iPhone 5, because the server didn't allow relaying, as some folks in this thread described . Deleting and setting the account up again didn't help. Someone in this thread said to go to Settings, Gmail, Advanced, Server Port, and change it to 25. It worked like a charm. BUT- here's the weird part: when I went back to check the server port, it had changed itself back to the previous port # and it's still working fine. Go figure.

CANNOT SEND MAIL FROM .MAC SMTP ACCOUNT

Hello everyone--
I can receive mail from my .mac account and have done extensive troubleshooting including:
1. Changing ports from 25 to 587
2. Deleting and re-installing mailbox
3. Reading a hosts of topics
4. I have the serving settings with SSL unchecked
...but this still giving me the same trouble. I cannot send out because my email address keeps getting rejected.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server in Mail that is provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
If so, can you send mail with this account and SMTP server?
If the answer is yes to both questions, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.
Most, if not all ISPs now block the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) that is outside of their network on Port 25 but some block its use regardless.
Changing the Port for the SMTP server that is outside of the ISP's network from 25 to 587 usually resolves it but sometimes not depending on the ISP's restriction.
Have you contacted your ISP regarding their restrictions and/or requirements when using an SMTP server that is outside of their network or not provided by them?
Using your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account should work and it may be required regardless.

Cannot send mail from my POP account

I have a IPod Touch with the latest software installed (I believe that is 3.1.3).
I have 2 email accounts which I use, a MobileMe account which I am not having any problems with, but my POP account is having problems sending emails. I can receive emails just fine but when I send an email from my POP account I get the error "cannot send email - sender address was invalid". I have deleted the account and set it up as "Other" with all the same settings that are on my Mac but It still does not work. By the way the outgoing server is smtp.west.cox.net if that makes any difference.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you, Baforer. Between your solution and another person having the same problem, I was able to solve mine, an error message saying "Sender address is invalid" when I know my email address WAS correct.
For anyone else with this problem, I'm using comcast.net in the Northern Virginia area, I went into "Preferences" under the Mail menu (on my Mac), and clicked on "Accounts", Outgoing Mail (bottom of the page), hit button called "Server Settings" and see what port is displayed. In my case, like Baforer, it was 25. So exit out of Mail on your computer and go into Settings on your iPod Touch, Mail etc and go deep to Outgoing mail server, my case "smtp.comcast.net", enter, in next window, all the way at the bottom it says "Server Port"; click on that, a keypad will come up, erase whatever is displayed and enter 25 (or whatever was on your mail acct on your computer - previous step above) and you're finished. You'll here the familiar "whoosh" as those emails in your Outbox get sent on their way.

Cannot send mail from yahoo email account.

I recently developed a problem with sending messages through the ipad mail app. The primary server is Yahoo! SMTP Server with the SSL use on and port 465 open. However the hostname isn't specific. Just says "Yahoo! SMTP Server". I can't access it to change it so I made a second one below it as outbound.att.net because on AT&T website they changed the smtp settings. The outgoing mail port # is still the same...465 and I read online to change to 25 if the account is a business yahoo email but mine isn't and the ipad froze on me while attempt to verify. Can someone help me sort this out? I only have this issue when I'm on the actual data plan and I'm on the go.

Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password. On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo.

TS3899 cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6.

cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6. it was working up until a few days ago and now refuses to load on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4S
in the process deleted all my contact, very annoying.
all help is much appreciated.
interesting that my gmail account does work perfectly.

this may or may not help - but give it a try. On a forum some were reporting that talk21 is now under the yahoo umbrella. below are the steps this use listed. (This was an android forum, but the email settings should be the same. In short it looks like their server names have changed. An existing account may have simply been forwarded - but if you are reinstalling, it may want a clean install to the right servers.) Pay particular attention to the server names and port settings. (this thread was started based on a discussion of Imap vs pop - you are already an Imap person - so ignore that part)
See if this helps.
why settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3. The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3. This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi.
This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP.
Incoming server settings
IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 143
Security type - none
Outgoing Server settings
SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 25
Security type - none Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
and enter your talk21 username and password The End...works a treat for me p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.

"This message cannot be sent at this time." I have been getting this pop-up for 3 days when trying to send out mail. I don't know what to do! I cannot send mail from this account on any ISP. Please help!

lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that

I can't send e-mails from my hotmail account with my Macbook

Please help, I've noticed recently that I am unable to send e-mails from my hotmail account from my Macbook. I was able to send e-mails today from work (non-macbook). It's getting stressful as I have no idea what to do!

We took our MacBook Pro to the apple store, after a long trial and error, they FIXED the problem!
It turns out that one of the files was corrupt, it was either Java or Silverlight.
My suggestion to you is to remove Java than restart and then reinstall Java. See if hotmail works. If not, than, remove Silverlight reboot than reinstall Silverlight.
For us, it was one of those two files that were corrupt and that was causing hotmail to not be able to send email.
I'm not sure what the procedure is to remove and reinstall files, all I know is that my wives MacBook can now send email using hotmail.
Hope this helps.

Cannot send mail from my ipad

I cannot send mails from my ipad, I have checked settings with my mail server and they tell me that everything is OK, they don't know what may be causing the problem, any ideas?

TBS2.
There is no way for anyone to know if your problem is identical to the problem reported by maria_diaz. She didn't mention anything about getting the "relaying" message. I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

I cannot send mail from my iPhone since I got my iPad mini even though the settings are exactly the same?

Since I started using my new iPad, I cannot send mail from my iPhone even though I've compared the settings on both and they are exactly the same. I can receive mail.

How do I get Mail from my hotmail account?

I was wondering if I could get my mail from my hotmail account right into my mail. Also if I could get mail from an address originally opened on Windows with Outlook Express. Thanks a lot.

The short answer, for now, is you don't. It's increasingly clear that Microsoft does not want to extend this privilege to users of free HotMail accounts, not does it want to offer POP3 access to anyone other than paying HotMail Plus users at this point, and for the foreseeable future. And, IMAP: that's out of the question, apparently.
While the plugin idea is a nice one, the referenced open-source HTTPMail plug in is broken by Mac OS X 10.5, and nothing has been heard to date from the developer about an update to support Mail in Leopard.

Cannot send mail from any mail account

I have a Mac Mini, late 2014 model, running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I have constant difficulty sending mail from any of my mail accounts; these are iCloud, Googlemail, Yahoo and a personal one which uses 123-reg.co.uk. I am currently located in Greece, but have been having trouble for ages, even in the UK. I can receive mail, but I don't seem able to send it. Error message is usually simply cannot send mail using this server, select a different server. However, when connection doctor is run, all servers appear to be connected and I am logged in. Any ideas please?

Hi, not sure why that is relevant, but we arrived at the end of January this year. Here is a screen shot of a recurring problem, although in this case Gmail is not connected to the internet, which it usually is. Hope this helps.
Your outgoing Gmail servers not working, everything else seems OK.
So, what is not working for you (other than Gmail Sending)

Cannot send mail from .mac account in Entourage

I am a new mac user so my troubleshooting skills are very weak. Until about one week ago, i was able to send mail from both my hotmail account and my .mac account. Now, i get this error (just on my .mac account):
An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic.
i read through much of the support articles, but did not find my specific error. can anyone help??
thank you

it may be that your server (internet provider) has just started blocking outgoing mails not authenticated by them.
Go to your account set up...
and fill in the following details.
SMTP SERVER: smtp.mac.com
then click on advanced sending otions...
click on override default SMTP port... type 587
click on SMTP servber requires authentication...
use same setting as receiving mail server.
try this...

Cannot send mail from iPhone using Godaddy account/email

Was working perfectly until recently. Incoming mail still ok.
Now get error message when sending mail "Cannot Send Mail - The connection to the outgoing server "smtpout.secureserver.net" failed.
Have tried various fixes including using cwmx.com server, other ports and SSL on and off but no luck.
Have spoken to Godaddy support but they can't help as say must be local issue with iPhone.
Is GoDaddyGuy out there?

SizzyB and Joe,
I've read over your posts and see that you've both tried a few different troubleshooting steps with our support. The next step would be removing the whole email address from your iPhone and setting it back up. When you set up the email address, you should use the step by step walk through instructions available at http://help.godaddy.com/article/3423.
SizzyB, please note that cwmx.com is an AT&T specific server. Your UK provider might list a comparable SMTP server as a default or you might need to contact them to get their settings.
Joe, I would also like to note that you would specifically need to have our Unlimited email plan to utilize the IMAP service feature.
If either of you have further issues, please post the full details (including any errors messages you receive) and we'll continue to work on a solution.
