Cant send gmail from Mail

hi
sorry for the rather basic question. i can receive but cannot send messages, using gmail, in Mail. my outgoing server was stmp.gmail.com, then i looked up the question in these forums and someone said they could not send with stmp.gmail.com but could with stmp.googlemail.com, so i did that and it worked, but just once. now it doesnt work again. i have it on port 465, because that's how myThunderbird has it setup and it works on there. can anybody tell me what im doing wrong? thanks.

Log on to the GMail webmail, click Settings, then Forwarding and POP/IMAP. At the bottom, click Configuration Instructions. On the next page, click Apple Mail 3 (Leopard). The correct settings are given there.

  • Sending GMAIL from Mail.app generates multiple items in Trash

    I just recently began using Mail.app for my Gmail and I’ve got a problem. I noticed that when I draft a short Gmail and send it out, I get multiple copies of the e-mail in Trash. But each copy there contains only a few words from the original. For example, the first copy may contain only the first three words of the original. Subsequent copies in Trash display the remainder of the original. I sent out a 20 word e-mail and it was broken down into 10 different entries in Trash. Anyone else have the same problem?

    jackgm,
    I have to Gmail accounts; a free account, and a university Google Apps (.edu) account. Both accounts behave exactly the same on three different Macs.
    The bottom line is it's a pretty well known issue with Apple Mail and Gmail. The easiest solution is to turn off "Save Drafts on Server".
    It's a minor annoyance but hardly a major issue. For a long while, if you mapped Sent in Mail.app to the Sent Items folder in Gmail, you'd get duplicate copies of all your sent e-mails--Apple has since fixed this (thankfully).

  • Gmail will not send emails from mail

    On my Gmail account I am unable to send emails from mail on my iMac. I have OS X 10.9.1
    I have tried several times turning on and off 2 - step verification.
    I have also entered the generated password in the SMTP server as well.
    Message says: SMTP-server.gmail....  Could not connect
    When I edit SMTP server list how do I fill that in.
    ie Description, server name TLS Certificate.

    Does this mail ID supports either POP or IMAP protcol? Report this issue to your carrier they will raise a ticket to RIM for resolving the issue.

    If the settings are correct?, Then delete the account and start over. You may also try to restart your phone by holding the home and off button down till the apple symbol comes up.

  • Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage.

    Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage. Any fix? I've rebooted/powered down and on again and in Settings turned messages off and on again. Still won't work...

    I did speak a bit too soon it seems - while I can now send messages again from my iPad 2, it still doesn't show me messages that were sent to me via my telephone number. Which is weird, because in the "You can be reached by iMessage at:" setting I do have my telephone number checked.
    At this moment I have set my iPad 2 and iPhone 4's "Start new conversations from:" setting to my Apple ID e-mail address. This way at least I can send messages *and* receive messages if people don't use my telephone number to send me messages...
    So yes, you should probably wait a while before restoring your iPad 2 - it doesn't fix things completely.

  • Cant Send Messages from Nokia N8

    Hey All I Cant Send Messages From Nokia N8-00 The Error Which I M Facing Is Whenever I Type A Msg And Send It It Goes Directly To The Outbox When I M Resending it it is not being sent Please Help!

    When a message failed, it always goes to the outbox or if you aborted it. Download the configuration for sms, gprs & packet data for your phone from you provider. Sometimes the wizard does not configure it properly.
    Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!

  • I cant send messages from my ipad?

    i cant send messages from my ipad

    More information would be important.  No idea if you're talking about email messages or iMessage or something else entirely.  If you're referring to iMessage, note that you cannot use that to text any non-iOS device...  Only other iPads, iPods or iPhones.
