I can recieve email but cant send anyone know how to sort this

can anyone help i can recieve email but have stopped being able to send its only recent and very anoying as i have to go through hotmail to send now

If this just started, and before you could send and receive just fine, then it is a problem with Mac Mail.
It is IMHO one of the Worst Mail programs ever written.
You are not alone this ends up happening to a lot of Mac Mail users, for No good reason.
It is not you ISP, it is not your settings. It is Mac Mail just decides to stop allowing you to send mail.
If you want it to never happen again stop using Mac Mail and find another Mail program. Any Other Mail program.

    Not much to go on there. The guess would be that you've set your SMTP server incorrectly - maybe a typo in the server name...?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    i assume the email account is your iCloud email account. have you tried turning off settings > iCloud > mail, restarting the phone and then re-enabling mail again.

  • A strange one-can recieve email, but not send

    Okay, I have a powerbook G4 with an airport (graphite) and a siemens wireless gateway/modem provided by T**us
    my mom's ISP. She can get on the internet okay (providing the signal doesn't get dropped, which it does) and downloads are fine, and she can recieve email, but not send. I have tried changing the smtp port to 587 from 25. Nothing from the activity monitor and no "whoosh". I have also tried setting up a new account (pop3) which the connection
    doctor says is okay for sending and recieving. Any suggestions before I spend an hour or so with T**us' tech support
    which for Macs isn't that good--frankly, I think the airport needs to be out of the picture---maybe it's fighting with the gateway??? :confused:

    Hi John: Did you get the "Send" issue figured out with your computer? If not, here are some things to check out. It sounds like you are using Telus. If so the settings for incoming and outgoing servers is as follows: Incoming > "pop.telus.net" Outgoing > "smtp.telus.net". Server port is 25, with no SSL enabled.
    Good Luck

    Hi NWL1,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Report any errors it found for Disk Repair, don't need the ones for Permissions Repair.
    Try it again & see if anything changed, but have Activity Monitor open & Show All Processes & sorted on CPU%, also have Console open if we can... maybe not when switching, but we'll see.
    Does this happen if you just try to create a new admin user???

  • Mac mail v. 8.2 can recieve email but not send

    We just got set up for ATT Uverse.  I tried to set up our email to come in on our Mac.  I have done it automatically, manually, any way possible and tried everything at ATT website to no avail.  I can receive emails but they won't send.  I get the message "Cannot send message using the server smtp.mail.att.net:[email protected]" "The attempt to send data to the server "smtp.mail.att.net" failed.  I tried connection doctor on mail and the ATT Yahoo!IMAP server is successful but the trying to log into the att.net SMTP account fails.  Verify username and password are correct.I am ready to pull my hair out, please help!!

    No guarantees, but try this, in order:
    Mailbox > Take All Accounts Offline
    Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online
    Mailbox > Get All New Mail
    Sometimes, it seems that Mail may lose contact with a mail server and not try to re-establish contact with it. So I'll have to perform the above to "encourage" Mail to re-check its surroundings.

  • I recieve email, but cant send out tells me my password is wrong

    i have the same password on my desc top and my iphone emails.  today i cant email anything out, it tells me my user name or password is wrong

    Don't switch email providers. Switch to another email client on your Mac. It is not Yahoo. I have 3 Yahoo accounts and never have any problems getting or sending mail from/to those accounts. But I don't use the built in Mac Mail program. I use Thunderbird. I use thunderbird on both Mac OS X and Windows. Been using it for some time now with no problems getting my Yahoo mail, Google gmail mail or form my work email account.
