How to view and change SMTP port number in new account setup in "Mail" 10.6

When I try to set up and test a new email account addressing an SMTP server that seems to e using a nn-standard port number, how on earth can I even look at the port number assigned by default to a new account in Apple Mail 10.6 setup ?
I might have to trial and error different port numbers but when Mail tries to test the connection to the SMTP server after I enter its address, it just spins and hangs up. I suspect the reason is a wrong port number. How do I change that outgoing port number in Apple Mail ??
There seems to be no obvious way the program will let U do it or even let you view the port it assigns in apparent error.

there is no way to change the smtp port during the original account creation. you can usually wait Mail out if it's spinning its wheels at this point. I've had to wait about 15-20 minutes a few times. eventually Mail lets you through even if it fails to connect to the smtp server. then, once the account is created you can edit the smtp server and try a few different ports and settings. that's done in system preferences->accounts. click on teh smtp server at the bottom and select 'edit smtp server list". then in the popup click "advanced".

  • How to view and change HTTP Session Size

    For the SAP Web AS Java, how can i check what size is set for the http session object?
    Thanks,
    Haris

    Hey Vincert,
    Is that parameter maintained on the ABAP stack or the Java stack.
    Specifically i would like to know if the HTTP session object size is viewable/modifiable for Portal (hence standalone Java stack). I believe Portal does not have ICM.
    Thanks,

  • SMTP port number resets to 25 after every reboot

    Because of our ISP, we have to use a non-standard SMTP port number to send via our mail server. This works just fine when I change the SMTP port in the Mail program. However, every time I reboot my MacBook, the port is reset back to 25, and I have to manually go in and change the port number again. This is of course really annoying. Does anyone have a fix for this problem, and has anyone else experienced it? Thanks for any help!

    No, you wouldn't see any error messages, because as far as the system knows, it is saving those changes. But if the file is corrupt, those changes don't stick when you quit Mail, so it reverts to the default.
    Since you have a POP account, quit Mail, remove the com.apple.mail.plist file from Home/Library/Preferences, then restart Mail and setup the account(s) again and Mail will find and "import" the existing email folders. Then setup your SMTP port preferences again, quit Mail and restart to see if they stick. If they do, you can delete the old com.apple.mail.plist file.

  • I am trying to set up my outlook 2007 account on i pad and the process sticks on verifying.  It would appear to be a problem with outgoing server and I have changed the port number but with no success.

    I have just purchased an i pad 2 and am having trouble with the e-mail set up.  Set up with wi-fi, i-cloud etc has worked fine but the i pad is recognising my outlook 2007 account details but is not verifying it.  The trouble appears to be with the outgoing server and I have tried changing the port number, but to no avail!  Also reset the account settings for holding messages on the server...help!  As you can tell I'm not very techy and I'm desperate to get the bloody thing working as I'm going away on Tuesday! Any suggestions?

    I had a similar issue and it was password case sensitive issue

  • How do you change the port number for Apex Listener V2?

    I'm running Apex listener V2 in standalone mode on Linux.  I want to change the port number of the apex listener V2 (e.g 80 to 8080).  How do I do that without re-installing the whole listener again?
    thanks in advance

    Hi PPlatt,
    You can modify your_listener_home_directory/apex/apex.properties

    Stop & restart listener.

  • Change the port number

    can i install Oracle server and tomcat server on same machine ?
    how to change the port number in OracleXE 10g. so that i can install oracle Data base and tomcat on same machine.

    can i install Oracle server and tomcat server
    on same machine ?Yes.
    >
    how to change the port number in OracleXE 10g.
    so that i can install oracle Data base and tomcat on
    same machine.Just make sure Tomcat is running while you install Oracle, and it should find the port in use.
    Otherwise, turn tomcat off, install using port 8080, and use the sqlplus command 'exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport(8090); to change the port to 8090 after the fact.
    Before installing:
    1) On WIndows, use a LOCAL machine administrator, not a domain administrator or non-admin user;
    2) On Windows, turn off all firewalls before installing; on Fedora, turn off SELinux;
    3) If there was a previous Oracle on the machine, on windows make sure the registry is clean.

  • Change WOL Port number for clients

    Hi All
    We want to implement in our environment WOL functionality , for WSUS deployment and scheduled OSD deployments
    We cannot unfortunately implement the default UDP port 9
    My question is how can we change that default port on the clients?
    I know that we can change the port on the primary server -> Site configuration -> Sites -> Properties primary site server -> tab 
    Port and here we can change the port number of Wake on Lan
    For the client I noticed that there is a client setting -> Power Management -> Wake on Lan port Number (UDP) but that number is grayed out and set to 9
    Also when I create a custom Client Setting that port number is grayed out and set to 9
    How can I change that port number for the client?
    Thx in advance
    Regards,
    Johan

    The port number in Client Settings/Power Management is grayed out because "Enable wake-up proxy" is disabled. When you enable it, it becomes available. Be aware that wake-up proxy and wake on lan is 2 different things. (Beware mac address flapping)
    To change the Wake On Lan port go to, primary server -> Site configuration -> Sites -> Properties
    primary site server -> tab  Port.
    Wake On LAN port number (UDP)
    For System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 and System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager only:
    Keep the default value of 9, unless you have changed the Wake On LAN (UDP) port number in the site Properties, Ports tab.
    Important
    This number must match the number in the site Properties. If you change this number in one place, it does not automatically update in the other place.

  • Is it possible to change the port number of an already installed ITS?

    Hello,
    I've done an install of the latest ITS stand-alone application (win2k server , IIS). It was installed on port 81.
    Is there an easy way to change the port number of this ITS installation without doing a new install? I know there are port references in the itsregistrywgate.xml file but was not sure if these were maintained during install or by reading the global.srvc file entries.
    I've taken the simplistic steps of changing the port number in IIS and the global.srvc file but that does not work. I get a 403.2 read access forbidden error.
    Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Graham

    Hello Graham,
    yes, it is possible but depends on what you want.
    For IIS, WGate is depending on the following items:
    ISAPI wgate (the filter API that triggers on /scripts/wgate) which is normally a general isapi for all webserver instances.
    the virtual directory "SAP-WGate-Scripts" which exists for the according "virtual" webserver instance.
    the (web)servername in wgate registry, which points to your virtual webserver
    the "Port" in the URL section in wgate registry.
    So, if you want to change the port (e.g. from 81 to 82) for both your virtual webserver and the wgate then go ahead.
    But if you want an extra virtual host (e.g. on 82) then:
    create the virtual host on 82
    create a "SAP-WGate-Scripts" directory on this 82 host exactly as the one on the 81 host.
    change the "Port" in the wgate URL section.
    if you also have an own docroot directory you have to copy the SAP mimes from the 81 docroot to the new one.
    The only thing that will be wrong afterwards is the webservername, this will have no effect on the runtime behavior but at the next patch install you will get an extra dialog to identify your webserver again.
    If you wanted to go for the latter scenario then it might be less work to add a new instance by install e.g. a dual host wgate on the new virtual host or a single host install (with a dummy agate).
    Afterwards you can play around with the WGate configuration to change it to your needs.
    Regards,
      Fekke

  • Changing the port number in 10g Discoverer- Middle Tier & Infrasctructural

    Earlier I had insalled 10g discoverer which incudes both Middle Tier & Infrastructural Tier with default port numbers.
    Now i would like to change the default port numbers to other port numbers. This is because , i am got to do another discoverer installation with default port numers.
    In this case i have one question. Is it required to change all the port numbers that exist in the file "portlist.ini" of both Middle Tier & Infrastructural Tier.
    What change still i need to do in Oracle 11i application front.
    Thanks
    Naveen

    I did troubleshooting to verify the group, but this just changed the port number back to the default in the listener.ora & tnsnames.ora.
    So I did all the steps again to change the port number from the default to another - via lsnrctl status, i see that the new port number is being used, I can also log in to the database via Toad using the new port number, in v$parameter i see that the local_listener is registered on the new port number....only under the Fail Safe manager, the port number (under listener parameter) has not changed....it still shows the default port number. Anyone know how to change this???

  • How to view the change immediately after a java file is modified without restarting server or redeploy?

              Hi All,
              How to view the change immediately after a java file that is used in jsp is modified
              without restarting server or redeploy?
              Moreover, it is better to keep the original session.
              Any suggestion is appreciated.
              Kammau
              

              Hi,
              In order to have a new version of a java class, the current classloader must be
              deleted and a new one created. This is what redeployment does. I believe that
              this is more of an issue with Sun's implementation of classloaders. You could
              ask BEA support (719.232.7878) and see if they have any plans to periodically
              check jar files to see if java class file timestamps and destroy and re-create
              classloaders on the fly.
              1) You will still have to accept the performance hit of destroying classloaders
              and creating new ones. There isn't any way around that.
              2) I would think you would want to have more explicit control in production and
              integration anyway.
              You can redeploy applications from the command line (script) file not just the
              console.
              Hope this helps,
              pat
