Cannot send mail from outbox
I tried deleting the outbox from home/library/mail but no luck, internet works fine, mail recieves fine. from .mac website mail will send... but it won't send from my mail program. keep getting message "the connection to the server on"smpt.mac.com" on port 25 timed out." what else can I do?
Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
This indicates your ISP is blocking the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25.
Most, if not all ISPs have restrictions on the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only that is outside of their network (such as the .Mac SMTP server) but some block its use regardless. These restrictions are part of an overall effort to prevent or reduce spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
Try changing the Port used by the .Mac SMTP server from 25 to 587. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below. Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field. When finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
If this doesn't work, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.

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. -
"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 -
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.

Cannot send mail from mac mail or Entourage
Hi guys,
Wondered if anyone out there can shed some light on this little problem.
I use Entourage for my emails & all was working fine until yesterday. I can receive mail from all and sundry but I can't send anything. I subscribe to ntlworld internet service and if log onto my email through their webmail, then it's fine. I've tried sending mail from mac mail and I get the same problem. I've been onto microsoft support & gone through all the troubleshooting with Entourage. The Entourage techy suggested it was my internet provider blocking my emails as they think I'm a spammer?? I phoned ntl & they insist it's nothing to do with them as I can send/receive from the website. (If I send an email with the address @ntlworld it's fine, but any other address i.e. all my clients/mates etc just stays in my outbox.
Nothing on any of my settings has changed so I'm at a loss what to do next.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Melit 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.

Cannot Send Mail from my iPhone 4s
I am no longer able to send out replies or new emails from my phone, this is very recent and I have tried everything I know of.. But I am not THAT tech-savvy.
So, anyways, when I go to send an email or reply to one, I get a pop-up box that says "Cannot Send Mail - The username or password for "said"-hotmail account is incorrect." So then I go to the settings enter my correct password for my hotmail account, it accepts it, and try again. Same pop-box appears, even though my password and username are both correct. I know that they are correct because I am able to receive email with no problems at all.
Is this a fixable problem or should I call Apple or take my phone in directly to them and have one of the techs look at it ?
Thanks;
OdyssyProblems with sending mail is rooted in the settings for the SMTP server. There are places in this that say the username and password are optional, but normally are required by many email providers. Go back into the SMTP server settings and check all of the areas. I also agree with Doctor9fan to check your SSL settings. If you cannot get it to work like this, then remove the account from the device and add it back. As you complete the creation, make sure the account verifies. You can also check the Microsoft site to make sure settings are correct for Hotmail.

Cannot send mail from icloud from iPhone?
Since updating to iCloud I cannot send mail. I can receive. Error message says password incorrect. Using same
Password on mac book works fine and I am able to send mailAbout ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone. Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc. This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...

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?

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. -

Why do I get the message "Cannot send mail, the user name and or password for my email outgoing server is incorrect"? I use the same account, etc. on my iPhone and haven't any trouble sending mail.
If your email requires a password for the SMTP server you can set it up in the settings in the General mail setup. Some i.e Gmail require a password for SMTP.
Otherwise you will probably get better answers in the iPad forum.

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

Cannot send mail from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007
I have an
Exchange 2007server with all roles in the same server (Version:
08.03.0327.001 ) on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have now installed two Exchange 2013 servers both with CAS and MBX roles on Windows 2012 servers
(full patched). There is also a DAG between the new servers. All mail goes through a BorderWare besides the internal mail.
I can send mail from both environments to the Internet. I can also send internal mail from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.But the problem is that I am unable to send from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007. I've debugged, but not solved the problem and there are
few articles on the Internet.
Any suggestions?These two sentences are in conflict : "I can also send
internal mail
from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. But
the problem is
that I am unable
to send from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. "
Can you describe what is your real problem? Flow from E2007->E2013? Or vice versa?

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. -
OSX Mail won't send mail from outbox
Hi.
I'm having a problem with Mail not sending messages from my out box. Everytime I compose a new message, it ends up in the outbox. I used the connection doctor and my pop and smtp connection is fine. I tried deleting some of my old email messages. I've repaired permissions, ran Diskwarrior even move my old email from a holding folder, deleting the old mail account, created a new account, transfered the old email back into the new account. It still doesn't send email from the out box. I know my pref settings are correct because I also have a G-4 desktop running the same OS and it sends mail just fine. I'm stumped.
Any info will be of great help.If no error message is provided, the Outbox mailbox may have some corruption.
With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes > Outbox.mbox.
The Outbox.mbox folder represents Out in the mailboxes drawer which appears only when a message cannot be sent and is shared by all accounts.
Delete the Outbox.mbox folder and empty the Trash. This will delete any messages contained in the Outbox mailbox so before doing so, you need to move any messages contained in the Outbox mailbox to the account's Drafts mailbox.
Launch Mail and a new Outbox.mbox folder will be created automatically by Mail within the Mailboxes folder.
