I can't send emails on iPhone with my hotmail account. Is it not possible?

I am having the same issue. It started this week. I have 2 email accounts on my phone. One is a hotmail. And the other one is a network solutions email. I can receive from both but not send. I've deleted the accounts and added them back on and nothing. I'm going crazy because one is my work email!

Still can't send emails through Mail for my Hotmail Account!!!

Hi,
It's been weeks now without being able to send email from my 'Mail' programme which is linked to my Hotmail account.
All I get is a message coming up saying:
'Cannot send message using the server Hotmail'
'Connections to the server "smtp.live.com" on the default ports timed out'
'Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click 'Try Later' to leave the message in your outbox until it can be sent'
Where I have the option to choose an outgoing mail server the only choice I have is 'Hotmail' which displays as 'Offline'
What the **** is going on?????
Is this to do with Hotmail now changing to 'Outlook'???
Help!!

Hey,
I found this worked for me, just check your hotmail settings are as follows
You change your POP to IMAP like this
Outlook.com does support IMAP and SMTP.
Incoming server:
IMAP: imap-mail.outlook.com
Port: 993
Encrypted Connection: SSL
Outgoing server:
SMTP: smtp-mail.outlook.com
Port: 25 or 587
Encrypted Connection: TLS
Username: Your Username
Password: Your Password
This won't work on mac os x mail unless you disable pop in your outlook.com account first. If you have mac os x mail, and you don't disable pop in your outlook.com account first, mail will automatically setup pop and smtp.

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi! I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Can't send email from Outlook with parentheses in address

I can't send email from Outlook 2007 through my WRT400N when Outlook displays the address with parentheses as in this example: Firstname Lastname ([email protected])
I can send if the address is in this form: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>
I have tested with the ISP and nothing gets through the router when the problem occurs. When I bypass the router, both forms of address will send correctly. This problem is perfectly reproducible. My router is brand new, but the problem did not show up for about a week after installation. OS is Win7. Any ideas? Thanks.

Try to forward the port 443 to 447 on the router.Check this link.

Check your outgoing server settings according to your e-mail provider.

Can't send emails to domains with the new TLDs .care .events .credit

I recently got some of those new TLDs for our business and while I think they're great for short urls and links etc I don't see this picking up anytime soon. Most people I know think that the internet won't work unless you add .au at the end of stuff.
Having said this I now also discovered that my BlackBerry Z10 wont let me send emails to these domains since it thinks it's not a real domain. (which is funny since they've applied for .blackberry)
Is there a fix on the horizon for this soon?

Thanks for posting about this @numnut
I'm going to send you a private message so I can learn more and start investigating.

TS3276 When I try sending emails through Mail with my iCloud account, it says "Unable to Sign Message"

I cannot send messgaes through Mail with my iCloud account. Whenever I try sending them, it tells me "Unable to sign message".
Does anybody know how to fix it?

Check if you have set the correct language and country in your Apple TV. Maybe you are trying to connect to the wrong iTunes store.

Can't send email on iPhone 4s IOS 6.x

I can recieve emails on all my email accounts that were synced on my iPhone but cannot send. The exception is Gmail. I can send and receive. I even copied the mailbox setting by hand from my mac and I still can't send. My carrier is Verizon. What do I need to do?

How is your iPhone connected to the Internet when the problem occurs? What email providers are you running into the problem with?
This Apple doc is a good place to start -> iOS: Unable to send or receive email

Can't send email on iphone - smtp error

I can retrieve email without issue on my iPhone and computer. I sync'd the iPhone via iTunes so I have not physically typed info into my iPhone - settings are identical to my computer Mail settings. When sending emails I get the message: "Cannot Send Mail. The connection to the outgoing server 'smtp.comcast.net' failed. Any suggestions?

Actually you don't want identical settings on the iPhone, which Apple warns against in the manual.
Do you have a section or page number in the manual where it indicates this because I don't recall seeing it or I missed it.
The option to sync email account settings via the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes syncs or transfers the same account settings from your computer to the iPhone. This can work depending on the IPS used for connecting to the internet but it is usually the ISP being used for the internet connection that has the restrictions on using an SMTP server that is outside of their network.
Apparently Comcast is the OP's ISP so if the OP has a wireless network at home using Comcast for the internet connection and is able to send messages with the computer's email client but not with the iPhone using the same settings when connected to the internet with Comcast, something may have gone wrong with account settings transfer to the iPhone which is why deleting and manually creating the account on the iPhone is the next step to take if this is the situation.
I use the identical SMTP server settings with my .Mac account, my business POP account and my Gmail IMAP account but each has its own SMTP server which is authenticated. Many ISPs will allow the use of an SMTP server that is outside of their network as long as the SMTP server is authenticated. Some block using Port 25 for an SMTP server that is outside of their network regardless if the SMTP server is authenticated or not and in that case, using 587 for the Server Port using works.

Can't send email on iPhone 5

Email won't send on iPhone 5

As of this morning I cannot send email from my iCloud IMAP account on my iPad Air, my iPhone 5, or my Mac Mini over our Time Warner Internet connection. However, if I turn off Wi-Fi on my iPhone 5, I can send email as usual over the Verizon cellular network. Same with my iPad Air, when I use the iPhone as a hotspot. Same is true at my office and at Starbucks. I can send email using our EarthLink account from all devices over our Time Warner Internet, but not the iCloud IMAP account. I have an iPhone 5C at the office. Same with the 5C. With a Wi-Fi connection I cannot send email. With a cellular connection email sends as usual. I can recieve email normally even over Wi-Fi.

IPad won't send emails but iPhone does. iPad message says server does not recognise email address resetting account makes no difference what else can I try?,

My iPad won't send emails despite identical settings with iPhone which does work. " server does not recognise email address" resetting account fails to solve issue. What else can I try?

Have you checked ALL the settings including the port assignments? Easiest way to get those back to is to delete the email account from the iPad then redo the email account. Usually the ISP providing the email account will have instructions on their web site.

Can't Send Email from Iphone Using Pop Account

I have check our host names, ports, user name, passwords etc (all the account mail settings are OK) for incoming and outgoing servers. I can receive email fine but can't send them back out through the outgoing server. I am using the identical settings that I used in my Treo (which sent out emails fine). Upon sending an email the error message I get on my iphone is: " The recipient [email protected] was rejected by the server." I've noticed that I can send an email to "myself" (from the iphone) and it will show up on the in my email box, but email sent to other addresses will generate the above message. I've noticed, too, that I have to keep resetting the "Authentication" to "Password" (under advance settings) because it mysteriously resets itself to "MD5 Challenge-Response". The setting should be set to "Password" however. We are using a FirstClass email system. Sending email via the iphone by way of .mac, yahoo and gmail works fine (no mysterious rest of the "Authorization" settings either) .
It most me something obvious, but I can't see it.
I would really appreciate some help.

TS3899 can't send email on iPhone 5

Hi,
Yesterday I changed my email password on my PC. After which I went to settings on my iPhone 5 and changed there the password (for the new one).
I can receive but not send emails... What's the problem?
Thanks
Ola

Comcast can be interesting sometimes. They have been my provider, and have had some issues, especially when they changed the port number they use for mobile devices. They have a support page specifically for the iPhone settings, but you may want to delete the account from the iPhone and re-enter it, making sure to enter the username and password everywhere it asks for it, even where it says optional. See this picture for SMTP settings for Comcast.
