im at whits end and out of ideas

Have you tried using your ISP's SMTP server? A lot of providers block access to other SMTP servers.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1277
*Additional Information*
2. Your ISP may have a policy of blocking an "off ISP network" SMTP server.
Example: You can receive email from MobileMe but you cannot send via MobileMe's SMTP server.
Solution: Contact your ISP and see if they can allow you to make an SMTP connection to an "off >ISP network" email provider such as MobileMe.

  • After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
    From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
    I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
    I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite.

  • 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.

  • SMTP Server Sending Emails from mymac.local

    I ran a "fetchmail -a" command in terminal not thinking it would work from the command line. It worked and downloaded all my mail from Gmail locally to my mac into /var/me/mail. About 8000 messages in total.
    But it also started relaying all those messages through a postfix program I didn't know was running.
    From what I can tell it tried to relay every message I was sent in my gmail to mymac.local and when it couldn't it send NDR messages back to the address that was trying to send it (i.e. the original sender that sent it to my gmail).
    So to cut a long story short everyone who ever sent me an email got an NDR saying a message they sent to mymac.local could not be delivered. I was spamming them but I did not know it until a few hours later. At that time I killed the postfix program that (i think) was running an SMTP server relay on my machine. (I have MAMP installed for web development)
    I still do not know if it has stopped sending as I cannot view what has been sent or not been sent in any log files.
    How do I make sure everything (SMTP relays/postfix etc.) has stopped sending?
    How do I turn off ability to send anything from my local machine?

    Hi,
    Some ISPs will only allow a device to send emails from their server when its connecting to the Internet over their network.
    If the iPod touch is connecting to the Internet over the cellular network, you will most likely have to enable an alternate outgoing mail server(one that can only send over the cellular network). This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1426 provides more details about enabling alternate SMTP servers.
    You can avoid ISP related send mail issues by switching to another email provider, like MobileMe, Yahoo!, or Gmail.

  • Help! Gmail unable to send email

    Hi guys,
    Need some help here. My gmail has not been able to send emails although still able to receive. Sometimes a message saying something regarding smtp.gmail appears. It sounds like i have to go to the setting but i have no clue what i am supposed to do.
    I am not using a gmail app. Just the envelope symbol on the bottom of the Ipad 3 main screen.
    i appreciate all your input!

    Try this. You may have to enter your username and password in the outgoing mail server setting. Enter the information even if it says that it is optional.
    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , tap on the account on the right-hand side, go into Account, then SMTP (under Outgoing Mail Server) and try filling in your email account name and password.

  • Gmail won't send emails

    When I try and send an email from my gmail account the following things occur.
    Pre acts as though it is sending the email.  All looks as it should.
    I get an error saying that it was unable to send the email
    email sits in outbox and every couple of minutes the Pre tries to send the email only to give the error message again.
    Some of the attempts to send the email make it through but I have no indication as to when it goes through as it stays in the Outbox and keeps giving me the error messages 
    I have to go into the Outbox and delete the email to get the error to stop coming.  At this point I may have sent a copy out or I may have sent 5 copies out.  I have played with the account settings based upon what I have seen recommended to others having similar issues to no avail.  Here are my account settings: smtp.gmail.com, Authentication on, username with and without @gmail.com has been tried, password has been entered multiple times to make sure it is there correctly, SSL, and Port 465.  Please help!
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    I am having the exact same issue. I am unfortunately not sure when it began.
    Icthusman1, have you installed any patches? I suspect it may be an issue caused by one.
    EDIT: After a little more research, I found a solution that worked for me. Check out this thread: http://forums.precentral.net/gsm-pre/216747-problems-sending-email-since-1-3-1-a.html

    Hi Shane.
    I'm so sorry, the administrator in my company didn't provide enough information for me.
    Actually, when I sent email to ***@gmail.com, there was a notification sent to me by the system. The error notification is :

  • How do I configure smtp to send email

    Just bought mt iPad and trying to set up my mailbox.
    Sending emails is all good.
    But I am struggling to set up my outgoing mail.
    My smtp server is mail.mydomain.com
    My user name is [email protected]
    When I set up the outgoing mail I set mail.mydomain.com as my domain and my user name as [email protected] 
    When but the iPad tries to authenticate with a user name of [email protected]@mail.mydomain.com
    When I set the domain as mydomain.com and my user name as Ian.wermerling then it can not authenticate because I believe it is not authenticating against the actual smtp server.
    Any suggestions?
    Ian

    Has anyone any ideas?

  • I have set up email accounts on  iPad but it still uses my gmail account to send emails

    I have set up a couple of new email address on the iPad.everytime I send an email out it uses my gmail I'd as the sender

    Under the mails settings, the gmail account is the default account. You can change that. If you go into another mailbox, say yahoo. It will use your yahoo account to reply or send. You have to be in that specified email box. As far as clicking a an email off a site or emailing when your not in a specific email box, it will use the default email. You can either change the default in settings or click your email address in the email and change to the one you'd like.

  • Choosing the smtp to send email

    I have two accounts. A and B account.
    The standard account is A.
    When I am reading the email from account B and I need to answer it, I would like send this email from account B.
    But the iPhone insist to send my email by account A (standard).
    The question is: How can I change the account at the moment when I am writing the email? It is possible?
    Thanks....

    As long as both accounts are set up on the iPhone, yes. In the reply email, tap the From/Cc field, then tap the From field, and select the other email account from the list.

  • Gmail authentication required. Won't send emails on Mac

    Gmail suddenly stopped sending emails from my mac mini. Authentication required pops up. Did an apple update fairly recently. I have checked the outgoing server and it is was set to gmail offline, however no other choices were given. I have tried everything. I am receiving emails without issue. Please help!

    Is it POP or IMAP?
    The Password/Authentication rejection can confuse people since it's a catch all meaning...
    This Password, Username, Authentication method... is not recognized on this Port to this Server.
    If WebMail works in a browser, it's not Name or Password, but one of the other ones.
    Or Keychain has more than 2 entries for that account one incoming, one outgoing.
    The receiving email ports are:
    IMAP is port 143
    IMAP-SSL is port 993
    POP is port 110
    POP-SSL is port 995
    Outgoing ports are...
    SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

  • I have 2 email accounts but gmail will only send through the bt account and i need it to send through gmail? help!

    My gmail account only sends emails through bt account and dont want it to ? help

    You may have to use a second web browser & login
    instead of mail client software, for the gmail account.
    Check Google mail support for ways to set up POP
    or other Mail settings that may work with your ISP.

  • Outlook 365 - Gmail SMTP

    Good evening everyone.
    Here's my problem: my university provides us with a personal email address that can be accessed through Outlook 365 Webmail. I would like to configure my own Gmail address to send emails through my university account, through SMTP. I followed the instructions,
    started the Gmail wizard, correctly filled the blank spaces (address, username, password, smtp server and port - smtp.office365.com
    / 587 TLS)  but when Gmail tries to send a confirmation email, I get an error : "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: Technical
    details of permanent failure: DNS Error: Address resolution.
    failed: DNS server returned answer with no data".
    Anyone knows if there's any solution?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Based on the description, you are configuring the Gmail account to send emails via the Office 365 account, it's basically not an Office client issue, to get the specific support on the problem, better to post the question in Office 365 Community forum:
