I can receive emails, but not send

I'm in Lion 10.7, and can receive emails, but not send.

Check in Mail Prefs>Accounts - check that the outgoing server is correct.

  • 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.

  • Whilst travelling we have plugged in an optus wireless broadband, we can receive emails but not send them, we normally use an adsl broadband connection

    Hello Carol.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
    As for your issue, you need to provide more information. Firefox is not an email client. You may be having a problem with the email client you use, or with the site you are using to handle emails...

  • Zimbra Server - can receive email but not send

    I need to connect to a Zimbra Server for secure email - I can receive email but not connect. I get a connection refused error for sending email.
    I am using a G4 mac, Mac Mail, OS X 10.4.11, AT&T dsl service.
    Can anyone tell me what settings need to be changed to make the connection for outgoing email?
    Thanks!
    John

    I don't have a Zimbra server to try to connect to, but I see directions for setting up Zimbra for Mac's Mail elsewhere, like near the bottom of this page...
    http://its.lafayette.edu/help/email/zimbraclientupdate
    I see this one uses Port 465, which is different than the last one I checked.

    Hi, i have swapped my isp to BT , ever since this i can receive emails but am unable to send , BT have to me this is a apple email app setting that may
    need changing any help ou there please .
    Many thanks

    Hello,
    Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
    In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
    Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
    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 am visiting Germany from U.S. I can receive email but not send it

    HI I am visiting Germany from U.S. I can receive emails on my eyepad but cannot send! Any suggestions?

    Try to not use the mail app but rather use your service's webmail interface. For example, my mail is through yahoo. If I have issues with the mail app I can use safari and go to yahoo.com and access my mail that way.

    Hi,
    It may pay to send a Screen Shot of the Connection Doctor info.  (see the Window Menu)
    It would seem the IMAP or POP side is logged in bit the out going STMP server is not.

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if you can then send emails

  • User can receive email but cannot send

    Hi,
    I'm migrating a domain in an organization to another new domain. Now, we are migrating the workstations to the new domain. Users are not migrated, they are completely new in the new domain.
    So, the problem is that we have a workstation in the new domain and the user from new domain logged on on this machine. The user has successfully configured is old exchange account in Outlook (Exchange server is still in the old domain) and can receive email,
    but cannot send. 
    Can someone help please to find what is wrong?

    Hi Silva,
    Thank you for your question.
    Is there NDR when you send email?
    Which way outlook connect Exchange 2013?
    Where is email which was sent? “sent item” or “Draft”?
    Which user mailbox use when you configure profile? New domain user or old domain user?
    We could create a trust between new domain and old domain:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779840(WS.10).aspx
    We could ping old domain successfully on the new domain.
    If we have created mailbox for new domain user on old exchange, we could refer to the following link:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998031(v=exchg.150).aspx?f=255&mspperror=-2147217396
    In addition, we suggest we migrate user and Exchange to new domain as soon as possible.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
    Best Regard,
    Jim

  • I can receive iMessage but not send from my ipad.  The send button is grayed out

    The send button in IMessage is grayed out.  I can receive messages but not send them.

    Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
    Who are you using as your internet service provider at the time?
    Does your ntlworld email account have an authenticated SMTP server.
    I believe Yahoo does for a Yahoo account.

    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try the following:
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection.

    Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have not had problems until today.  I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?

    I have been having the exact same problem for weeks now with gmail.  None of my computers will send Gmail (they will recieve) and my Maverick computers (10.9.1) show gmail smtp.gmail.com as "offline".  I had installed Post Box and apple support thought it was that i had too many accounts (I have 2 ipads, an iphone (latest iOs), a work and home iMac and a powerbook).  I disabled all my gmail accounts in Mail and still no go from PostBox either . I tried connection doctor and it just spins for outgoing and say I either haveve the wrong pw or login - I dont.  I terminaled and tested port 465 (according to gmail instructions) and it works (port 25 did not).  I can access gmail from the webmail and send/recieve mail from it and it shows up in my webmail outbox. It is configured for imap.I just cannot send mail at all from any gmail account from any apple device using Mail (or PostBox). I am at a loss as was the apple support person who wished me good luck very politely and sympathetically.
