I can't send email after updating to iOS5

After updating to iOS5 I am having a great deal of difficulty sending email, something that never happened before. When I hit "send" I get a message "The connection to the outgoing server "smtp-server.maine.rr.com" failed.  However the kicker is that after a period of a few minutes to a few hours, the message does go out.  Help!

I would delete the mail account from your settings and re-add it. The problem is that the server data was somehow lost when your iPhone was upgraded.

  • Can't send email after updating to iOS 6

    Apple update has made a useable and great device now useless. I use my iPad for work exchange email and now can't send or receive. Why release a product without checking for major bugs like this. Have had to delete all emails in outbox and constantly have to manually I close app to reset. Not happy apple!

  • TS3899 I can't send email after updating my iphone 4. Did not change password.  What can I do to fix this?

    I just update my iphone 4.  I did not change my password. I can get emails but cannot send them.  How can I fix this?

    Victoria
    You need to delete the Yahoo account and reset it up.  I just did this for an iPhone running yahoo in my house.
    Settings
    > Mail Contacts etc
    > Select Yahoo account
    > Delete account
    Settings
    >Mail, Contacts etc
    > Add account
    > Select yahoo
    ...  add email address, password etc
    Cheers

  • I can't send email after iOS7 update...

    I can't send email after the iOS7 update....this is a show stopper for me.   When is a fix expected?

    First it would help if you explain exactly what happens when you send an email. 
    Do you get an error message?
    If so what does the message say?
    The abilitly to send or receive emails does not fall on Apple or the IOS 7.
    You email provider gives you that ability.
    Double check and make sure your outgoing mail server is correct.

  • Can not send emails after ML update

    I am unable to send emails after updating to Mountain Lion. Four email accounts, same problem: All settings are unchanged, but SMTP servers for outgoing mail are set as passive. No problem with incoming emails. Any suggestions?

    I thought they might be. Apple seems to forget about POP accounts, and most problems seem to occur in them.
    Do you have a backup before upgrading?
    Did Mail go through the upgrade process the first time you opened Mail after the installation? Sounds like something may have gone wrong.
    All mail accounts and emails are stored in you user/Library/Mail/V2 folder. If you have a time machine backup, just restore that V2 folder from before the upgrade (close Mail first) and see if that fixes the problem.
    To see your Library folder, click on the desktop to make it active, then go to the menu at the top, select Go, then Go to Folder and type or copy and paste
    ~/Library
    Then go to the Mail folder and open it and click on Time Machine - restore the V2 folder from before the backup

    Hi tania184,
    Have you contacted your email provider to make sure there are no problems on their end? If they say their email servers are working properly, check the outgoing and incoming mail servers entries on your iPhone to make sure both are entered correctly. Enter the outgoing mail server even if the account setup indicates that is optional.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Can't send email after 3.0 upgrade

    I can receive but not send email after the 3.0 upgrade. Also, the stock and weather buttons never update.
    Email is my important issue. Any ideas?

    Yeah, I put that in the title so hopefully people would see it right off the bat. I've been in the forum, looking at threads since the update to see if I'm the only one, and seem to be. I know tons of people are seeing problems with yahoo pushing email, but that's less of a concern to me at this point. And the fact that it worked just fine until this update tells me Apple broke it with their update. Surely I'm not the only person. And switching to gmail is not a good option for me. First of all, I hate gmail. Second of all, the sbcglobal account is my main mail account for my dsl line and I use it heavily. I don't want to switch. Shouldn't have to in my opinion.
    I was in the Promenade in Santa Monica earlier, was going to ask a "Genius", but the wait to see one was ridiculous. couldn't get an appointment till Monday. I'll wait till I'm back home to go the apple store I guess. It just frustrates me because I seriously doubt they can do anything at the store I haven't done already.

  • Can't send emails after installing 10.9

    After installing OS X v10.9 I can not send emails.  Nothing has changed on the server level.  But in the setting it keeps showing up with a TLS and does not have anything to select to make changes.  What should I do?

    skype.jpg ‏22 KB

    Hi
    I also cannot send files for a few weeks now. It used to work and now it does not. I tried reinstalling and everything I could think of but it still does not work.
    I even thought it could be because I installed skype on my phone which seems to be always signed in no matter what I do (but that's another issue) so I uninstalled it from my phone as well. I read all articles and solutions. Nothing helps. I checked my IE and it is v11.
    I cannot send files to anybody (not just specific contacts). The opposite side does not even get notified about a file being send or something, while on mine there is this ever rolling circle on the right corner of the message (see screen-shot).
    Some time ago I had problems saving the received files so I have been touching some options - could it be that I changed something which I should not have?
    Please advise!!!

  • Can't send emails after Mountain Lion update

    After I updated from Lion to Mountain Lion, I could receive messages from my service provider's account, but I could not send messages.  Mail Connection Doctor showed the information "Could not connect to SMTP server" for both SMTP servers, and when I try to send a message, I see that each SMTP server now has "(Offline)" after its name.  I can still send from my iPad to the same servers, and also from the service provider's webmail.  I have rebooted everything (Mac, wi-fi, router) to no avail, and I have followed all advice in Support articles such as TS3276.  I have changed absolutely no settings anywhere from the Lion system, and a check of all settings shows that they match the printout I made of the Lion settings.  I do not use iCloud for mail, so that server is disabled in Email Accounts, although the system opens iCloud on port 993 for Contacts, etc.
    Below is part of the output from the Doctor, which shows an error "503 wrong state for EHLO command" on ports 25 and 587.  Researching this message didn't really help me, and, as I say above, I have changed no settings between OS versions, so I assume that something must have changed with Mountain Lion.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm getting the same behaviour with my ISP's mail server:

  • Can't send mail after updating to 10.5.5

    I don't know if it could be coincidence, but I had been receiving and sending email all day long until I installed the latest update (10.5.5). Since the installation completed, I have not been able to send mails (receiving is okay). The program keeps trying, but just keep son trying with nothing happening. I checked the SMTP's for my accounts — nothing has changed there. Don't know what's up.

    Consider yourselves lucky. I can't send or receive email or connect to the internet AT ALL since installing whatever updates came down this morning (9/24/08). I can connect to my wireless and I can connect to AT&T using my USB wireless 3G thingy, but I can't access email or the web. Problem started immediately after this mornings Software Update rebooted my machine. I'm downloading the dmg on my work PC now and am hoping reinstalling will fix the issue(s).
