Cannot send email from iPhone...keeps saying smpt password is incorrect but it is correct.. I recieve email no problem

On my own, I discovered the following, which worked (one responder got the solution part correct for Google): For Yahoo, where I just use a standard login with no extra verification, I had to go into Yahoo and change my password. Once I did this, the new iPhone had no problem registering accepting my Yahoo account. I WAS, however, using the correct password and user name all along, for those who did not think that was the case. The problem is on the iPhone software side. For Google, I use a two step verification, and for that, one must go to Google Mail and obtain a specific, unique password, that is designed to work only on iPhones. Hope this helps anyone else with this dilemma.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.

My ipad receives email with the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message is "user name or password for ........is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad didnt help.

My iPad receives email on the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message reads "user name or password for smpt......is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad did not help.

I did try this too, but when I access my webmail on the iPad, the iPad doesn't allow me to type my message. I am able to enter in the "to" address and the "subject" line, but then the keyboard will not come up for me to type my message. Is there some trick to this? Very frustrating!

TS3899 I am receiving emails but my phone will not send messages. It says my password is incorrect but it doesn't allow me to enter it. Any ideas?

My phone will receive emails but it will not send messages. It says my password is incorrect but doesn't allow me an opportunity to enter it again. Any thoughts?

Under settings>mail, contacts and calendars if you click on the account... then the account name again on the next page.... then click outgoing mail server... then click under the words primary server... here is where you can enter your password... it's most likely missing or incorrect.
good luck

My email keeps saying my password is incorrect and I have not been able to get e-mail for days

My email keeps saying my password is incorrect. I have not been able to receive or send email for days now!
Can anyone help

Some servers have case sensitive passwords, so that may be one issue. Is your email MS Exchange, Gmail, Yahoo or ????

Microsoft Exchange won't connect with my iPhone (it's saying the password is incorrect, but it shouldn't be), now I can't delete that inbox on the phone. Help??

Turn off wifi. Use wireless signal. reenter password at settings. This should work. Turn wifi back on if you wish. Wait for next occurrence within hours or days. Have not found a permanent preventive solution. Thinking of replacing my four year old wireless router.

HT3228 Cannot get mail username or password is incorrect but both are correct

My bellsouth.net email was hacked. I was unable to access it on my iphone. "Cannot get mail the username or password is incorrect". I called bellsouth and had my password changed. The email account works on att website and windows live mail. Even after changing the password in settings on the iphone, I still get the same error message.

Hello Cruise2013,
Being able to to send and receive email is definitely an important feature of the iPhone. Here are some steps that may help:
If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
If you're still unable to send or receive email, contact your email provider and verify the account settings are correct. You will need to gather this information (PDF).
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
The article ends with gaining information from your Email Provider. I understand you are entering your correct username and password into the iPhone settings, but they may have adjusted some of the other settings.
I hope this helps get you back on track!
Best,

TS3899 I cannot send email from my ipad the message keeps saying rejected by the server but there is nothing wrong with my email account with talk talk as I am able to send email from my iPhone and laptop any ideas?

My email won't send from my iPad. It says the server rejects it almost immediately I press the send email button, although there is nothing wrong with my email account when sending from my laptop or iphone. I have cancelled the account and re-entered it but it hasn't made a difference? Anybody help?

Hi Allan,
Thank you for your help . The account used to work perfectly until recently, after receiving support from the provider, I deleted the account now I am trying to set the account again.
After putting in the first details (name, email, description) Cannot send mail the password or username for "mail.bigpond.com" is incorrect. I would expect this because the information I put in is not for Bigpond. So I press ok & I change the outgoing server (this is the one that is incorrectly labelled bigpond) to aapt, then I press save.
Then it says "verifying" but comes up with Cannot connect using SSL do you want to try setting up the account without SSL. I press yes.
Then I get the message "the POP server "mail.aapt.net.au" is not responding. Check your network connection & that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server. (I ahve already checked this with aapt & it is correct.

Cannot send mail from iPhone using Godaddy account/email

Was working perfectly until recently. Incoming mail still ok.
Now get error message when sending mail "Cannot Send Mail - The connection to the outgoing server "smtpout.secureserver.net" failed.
Have tried various fixes including using cwmx.com server, other ports and SSL on and off but no luck.
Have spoken to Godaddy support but they can't help as say must be local issue with iPhone.
Is GoDaddyGuy out there?

SizzyB and Joe,
I've read over your posts and see that you've both tried a few different troubleshooting steps with our support. The next step would be removing the whole email address from your iPhone and setting it back up. When you set up the email address, you should use the step by step walk through instructions available at http://help.godaddy.com/article/3423.
SizzyB, please note that cwmx.com is an AT&T specific server. Your UK provider might list a comparable SMTP server as a default or you might need to contact them to get their settings.
Joe, I would also like to note that you would specifically need to have our Unlimited email plan to utilize the IMAP service feature.
If either of you have further issues, please post the full details (including any errors messages you receive) and we'll continue to work on a solution.
