Changed password, can't send emails now.

I changed my hotmail password, now when I try to send an email on my iphone 4, it says unable to send as password is incorrect. The password is correct, and I can still receive emails.

Did you try to delete the account, restart the phone and set the mail account up again?

Won't allow me to set an smtp password can't send emails

can't send emails won't allow me to set smtp password

When you say won't let you set the outgoing mail password, have you gone to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calenars > Accounts and the account name > Outgoing Mail Server > Primary Server > Password and set the password at that point? Do you have SSL switched ON or OFF as required by your carrier, and do you have Authentication set to Password, and the Server Port set to what your carrier wants to see, usually 25?

Can't send email from internal server, same domain name as external.

We have a domain "example.com", hosted externally, for email and a website. We are thinking of hosting email 'inhouse' and have setup a dedicated subdomain on a 'fixed' IP, "mini.example.com" for AFP services mainly. mini.example.com provides DNS internally, its primary zone is also example.com. All access to the external web goes thru' a modem/router that the server is connected to. We have to set an A record for www access to our website.
In our testing to migrate email, the internal setup works fine, until the switch over. Now we can receive mail to the mini server, but can't send any out.
We instructed our webhost provider to set the CNAME mail.example.com to point to mini.example.com and created a cPanel MX extry mail.example.com, 10 priority. Previously, the external host had CNAME as mail.example.com to example.com and MX as example.com, 10 priority.
Since the implementation of the CNAME change, we can't send emails out and they get stuck at the outbox waiting. Client Mail app, says to check for port and SSL and account settings.
Any idea where we went wrong here and what we can do to get emails out? We could go to each computer and point-off the DNS to office IP, but we rather not.
Thanks!

Thank you Camelot and MrHoffman for your replies.
I got in this am to find Mail.app could actually send out emails and I'm stratching my head wondering what happened yesterday.
SMTP server addresss was manually set to mail.example.com for all accounts. In trying to get things to work, the mail setup was redone again by "Accounts", in Systems Preferences, when Login is clicked on, and mail was automatically given a SMTP as mini.example.com instead of mail.example.com. I'm guessing that that could be where the initial 'inside' problems were, given that it had a 0 answer to the MX query. Or then again I wasn't patient enough.
Just for completeness, and if there's something to learn from here, these are the dig results for example.com as seen from within the office network.

We changed our email password and now we can't send emails.

Hey there Darlene E,
It sounds like after you changed your email password you can send email, but cannot receive them. Try out the troubleshooting in this article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage (try any webpage). If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you are unable to load a webpage, follow these troubleshooting steps.Try to use an alternate Internet connection if available:
Try a different Wi-Fi connection
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I could send emails but now I can not send emails

HAd iPad 2 for about two months when first had it I could send emails now with out changing any settings I can not send emails

I'm having the same problem. I've had my iPad2 for about 9 months and it has worked perfectly well up uniptil the other days. I can still receive emails but I cannot send any. Each time I try, they simply sit in the outbox with an exclamation mark icon next totem which, when interrogated states "cannot send mail - SMTP: the user name or password for (email address)@smtp.live.com is incorrect". I've check over and over again, and neither the username nor the password is incorrect. Can anyone help?

I just updated my IPad to iOS 5 and now can not send email. The error message says the server rejects the address which is not true Asti sends on my desktop.

I just updated my iPad to iOS 5 and now can't send email- I have tried the obvious but no luck. Any suggestions?

Usually 'authentication required' means that you need to submit a username (or e-mail address) and password to the e-mail server, when sending a message. This logic is not different between Outlook and Thunderbird, and even with the latest and previous version of Thunderbird.
Of course you can try the previous version again to see if it solves the problem, although you'll be less secure because you would be missing the latest fixes.
If you'd be willing to get back to Thunderbird, say if your frustration level with your new app would increase too much, please see our article [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-send-messages cannot send messages] for further help.
In all other cases I'd appreciate it if you could mark this as answer so we know you don't need further help.

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.

Moved to a new house and now i can't send emails but i can receive them

I just moved to a new house and now i can not send emails but i can receive them...

New houses can do that.
We need more info - what email service is this issue about. Do you use several (gmail, yahoo, icloud,...) and is this issue the same for all? If you also use a computer or other device, is this issue common to them all?

When I set up my mail I could send emails now a day later I can not send them but can still receive them ... I can't see what is wrong .. Any answers .

It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things. By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files. I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule. The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac. That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.

New MacBook- Can't send email. I've changed ports and still the same thing

Hello. I just got my MacBook and I can receive email fine, but I can't send emails. I read the forums and was advised to change my port from 25 to 587 or 143. I'm not sure how someone determines what port I'm suppose to be using? The error I receive is that port 587 or 143 has timed out.
Please help. Thank you.

how are you connected to the internet? try going straight into your modem, could be a port issue on a router
does your smtp server need authentication? does it use ssl?
port 587 usually does work if 25 doesn't but those are the 2 main ports used, if neither works verify what port your ISP is using

FIOS to DSL now I can't send email via port 25 or 587

I was cruising along fine for a year on FIOS. Then I moved 2 days ago to a new house with DSL. I connected my system the same as before. Viola! I can not send email via Outlook 2002 on non verizon email acccounts.
Yes, I have read through the port 25/SMTP issues but nothing has worked. Online support reset my winsock settings, but did not work.
XP sp 3
Outlook 2002
Non Verizon Email
Anyone find the solution?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Maybe this will help:
For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up your outgoing server with fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
The Incoming settings will be what your 3rd party provides.
Outgoing Server: outgoing.verizon.net
Server Requires Authentication: Yes
Username: fakeacct
Password: fakepassword
Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): No
Port: 25 (although 587 also works.)
These settings should work unless you have a Verizon/Yahoo account, in which case the server name should be: outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem.
