Cant send an email from iPhone 5

Ever since I got my iPhone 5,I have been unable to send an email.
I just get a message to say
"The connection to the outgoing server smtp.hotmail.co.uk failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Server can be configered in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars."
I have tried everything to connect the phone to my hotmail.co.uk account, but I am having no luck.
The settings are exactly the same as what was on my iPhone 4, so I don't understand what the problem is.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Gemma

Make sure that your router is setup to not block any ports.
as well check with your ISP to ensure those servers are not blocked.
you shouln't have any issues with receiving mail. the outgoing would be the only issue you should be having.
make sure you add an alternate SMTP server (using your ISP's server) to send email when on wifi

Cant send/recieve email from iPhone on wifi - 3G works fine

I cant send or recieve email on my iPhone / iPad when on WIFI - when I turn off WIFI, it all works fine on 3G. I tried to delete my exchange-account, and then both gmail accounts works fine on wifi. Any thoughts?
...or rather; I think maybe it sends/recieves, but it takes a very long time.

Cant Send SMS Text from iPhone

I cant send any SMS texts. I can send iMessages and MMS (pictures), so when i want to text a non-iphone user i have to text, let it fail to deliver, then take a screenshot of this and send screenshot pic to the person.

Manual cutting of a SIM is always a risk, as you have witnessed. It is best to get a SIM directly from your carrier that is designed for your particular model of the phone. That eliminates these types of problems.

Problem sending MobileMe email from iPhone

Hello
I have a new iPhone, MacBook and MobileMe subscription. The address from MobileMe when I send email from my Mac is [email protected] but when I send email from my iPhone it is [email protected] I have in theory followed all the instructions yet cannot get it to do otherwise. Any suggestions appreciated
Cheers
Ben

This is because the SMTP server you have configured does not permit connections from off the ISP's network. When you are connecting via EDGE this is off-network from the perspective of the ISP.
Here are some hints from Apple on this problem:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.3/en/2637.html
You didn't say who your ISP is, but here are some common settings ISPs in various countries:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306990
As a last resort in the US you can set the outgoing SMTP server to cwmx.com:25 with no user ID or password. This will work on EDGE only, not on WiFi.

I am using the mail aplication on my destocktop and even though i can receive i cant send any email from my hotmail account using BT

i can send emails if i log in throw my internet browser and i can send emails from another network despide BT.i tried everything, i had check the all the settings
every time i try to send an email that what apper
my ports as well are set as they should be
i did visited the apple store and my email worked perfectly there.... can anyone say whats wrong??

Hi Pitas123
I am in the UK and had a similar problem. Ii eventually found the problem was due to my BT Home Hub Router. Not sure where you live, but of you are in the UK, this might work for you.
I found this fix below on https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4604180?start=15&tstart=0
It worked for me. If you can't link to the URL, here is the body of the text
There's an issue related to the BT homehub that is providing a hostname that is "syntactically incorrect" for several smtp server.
Here's how you can fix it.
Using your internet browser, go to the address "192.168.1.254
- Follow instructions to reset your password if asked.
- Then go to "Settings", then "Advanced Settings" and "home network"
You will see there all the devices that are connected or that has been connected before. It's gonna be easyer if yout computer is the only one connected.
Your computer should have a name like "unknown-xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ...
Click on this name, chose another name without any special characters, like "macbook" for exemple.
And then click on "apply"
- restart your computer.
That should fix the issue.
Credit goes to vincentfromcork for providing me with the solution.
Hope it works for you. If it does, spread the word ;-)

Why won't iCloud allow me to send outgoing email from iPhone?

I try to send emails from my newly created iCloud account, but I get an error message saying that the server isn't working.

Also same here. If it's any consolation the iCloud and mail forums are awash with this problem. I am most disappointed that the service status is showing all ok since 9.37am UTC yesterday when it is obvious that the mail poblems they posted as resolved are are not in fact resolved. I am sorry I cannot offer any solutions, as many of those suggested by others (which I have tried) either only work temporarily, slow your mail down interminably or fail to work at all. It should work the way Apple say it should and not require work-arounds. What I find most disappointing is the lack of an ackowledgement somewhere that there is a problem and it is being addressed. Perhaps then tens of thousands of people (or more) wouldn't be wasting hours and hours trying to get it to work to no avail.
APPLE, JUST ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM AND I CAN THEN WAIT FOR IT TO BE RESOLVED, THAT'S ALL I AM ASKING.

Sending aol email from iphone

I am also having problems. Whenever I try to send an email via my aol account (which receives incoming email no problem) I get the same error message "Connection to the outgoing server "smtp.aol.com" failed". But I cannot find any setting on my iphone to try and correct this. Very fed up....help please.

I have solved this (thanks to apple telehpone support line). I am UK based used on O2 account.
You need to enter your aol account details manually, not through aol preset option.
So delete existing aol account (go in via settings then mail then follow prompts).
Then create new account - settings - mail - accounts - add account - other -. Ensure IMAP is selected. Enter your name, email address. Under incoming server enter host name "imap.aol.com", username, enter your aol account user name and password. Under outgoing mail server: host name "smtp.o2.co.uk", username and password shoudl be optional. Then presss save. It will ask you if you want to go ahead without ssl settings - select yes. Keep waiting. It worked and I have sent several emails without problems. Hope this solves problems for others.

Can's send yahoo email from iphone

While everything was working until a few days ago, all of the sudden, any emails I send from the iphone, using my yahoo account, are not sent. I tried sending it myself and it doesn't work. They don't even appear under the "sent" folder so it's not like they're pending or anything like that. Does anyone have any solution?

You might try to go in and reset your password for you Yahoo account in your iPhone. If that doesn't fix it, the quickest way to make sure that all of the settings are set correct is to delete your Yahoo account from your iPhone. recreate your account on your iPhone and that should fix any problem your having.

Problem sending an email from iphone

When my iphone is connected to my wifi I can send and receive emails no problem, however if I connect via GPRS I can receive email but when I try and send it I get an error message telling me it cannot find the outgoing server, can anyone help with this?

Cant send emails from iphone 4s

I cant send any emails from my i phone. My AOL or sky account says cant send message as server does not allow relaying of messages.
any ideas?
it worked on my i phone 3??

I found I had the same problem. I could send emails via WiFi but not my network. So what I did was in settings/Mail,contacts,cal/account and then went to outgoing SMTP and under host name I had the option to enter User name and Password which I did from my ISP account and hey presto, I can now send emails from my iPhone 4S. This makes me very happy. Hope it can work for you.

When I send email from iphone, mail on my mac crashes every time.

The latest in a string of issues I've had with Mountain Lion, and even more with Lion. This is the latest and most frustrating.
Eveytime I send an email from iphone or ipad, mail on my macbook pro crashes. This happens everytime!
Also, Safari is unusable as keeps crashing and hardly ever loads properly so moved to Chrome which works perfectly.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Unable to send email from iPhone or ipad, Unable to send email from iPhone or ipad

Recently, I have become unable to send emails from my comcast email account. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the account, but get an error (Cannot send. Username or password for Comcast invalid). The username and password are correct, though, as my email works fine on my non-Mac laptop. Any suggestions?

Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
