Icloud email can receive but not send on PC?

With icloud emails on my iphone I can receive and send icloud emails. On my PC I can receive but not always send. When I try to send an icloud email I get this message: "This message cannot be sent at this time"
Thanks,
Frank

I ran into this problem myself while connected via WI-FI last night and it was due to port 25 being blocked by my ISP. I recommend that you set up your Yahoo! e-mail account within iPhone. Go to Settings | Mail | Add Account... Yahoo will be the top choice.
If you want to continue to use Yahoo via POP3/SMTP, then look at this link:

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.

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?

I can receive but not send emails with my skynet account - what am I doing wrong ?
I have no problems with my Yahoo account but I can not send emails with my skynet account.
Actually in iPhone :
Outgoing Mail Server > SMTP "relay.skynet.be"
Primary server > Not Configured > Off
Thank you ...

When you set them up, did you set up both the incoming and outgoing email servers separately, and did you enter the correct SMTP server name, and enter your userid and password even though it says "optional"?
Something else to try, if you haven't, is delete the accounts, connect the iPhone to iTunes, on the Info tab check the box to sync mail server settings, then sync. This should duplicate the settings from your computer to your iPhone.

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails

5th gen ipod can receive but not send emails. I have iPad with same settings and no issues. Yet, I keep getting "cannot send mail" the user name or password for "[email protected]" is incorrect. Please assist. I am not running both accounts simultaneously

See:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
Did it work before?
I suspect a error in the settings for the outgoing mail server.

"I managed to solve the problem. Under smtp settings (mail preferences/accounts/edit smtp) I set the outgoing port to 25 (as recommended by Talktalk), no authentication (set to none) and unchecked SSL. I found that until I set the port to 25 and authentication to none I was unable to uncheck SSL. One I had done this I was able to send from my main email and other email adddresses set up under my account."
Superb advice R&W! My email sending block using TalkTalk started 2 months ago using Snow Leopard, continued when I upgraded to 10.8.2, and has been persistent on my wife's new iPad (IOS 6.1). Implementing your wise words has fixed all that, and now enables me to call her on FaceTime — previously only she could call me. Thank you so much; this will save hours of further fruitless searching and phoning.
Please remember that your email is now insecure, if you wish to have a secure connection SSL must be on and port 25 should be avoided.

I think a firewall is interfering with my mail program - I can receive but not send. Please help!

I think Firefox may have installed a firewall that is interfering with my email program - I can receive but not send mail.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Firefox updated with ALOT

Firefox does not install a firewall.

I'm trying to use Outlook to receive and send email from my mail.me.com account - can someone please tell me the settings to use (port number, encryption etc) as I can receive but not send. Thanks!

Looks like there is a general problem with SMTP mail today. Lots of people posting similar things.

My o2 email will receive, but not send on my ipad

My o2 email will receive, but not send. I've got other email accounts on the ipad & they all work OK. The o2 mail account used to work properly, but I needed to remove the account & since I've put it back on, it won't work on my ipad. Works ok on android mobile phone. I've checked the settings & spoken to o2, but they couldn't solve! It may be since I've joined the cloud? Any advice, gratefully received. Thanks.

Recheck the settings once again. There is something wrong. And it seems to happen to O2 people with some regularity. Google o2 mail settings and you will get a page with the details. Pay close attention to the port setting, you may need to change it on the pad, and that may be the problem.

Email will receive but not send after installing os7 on iPhone 4S

Email will receive but not send after installing os7 on iPhone 4S. Checked all settings against iPad and second 4s phone and they appear identical. Other devices work fine.

Thanks Spaidr,
That was part of it. I did an end-around by setting up an alternate outgoing (send) server which was the same as the primary, identical settings, name, password. I deselected the primary and used only the secondary. Reboot as you suggested and Voila! Something must have been corrupted in the primary.
Thanks and hope this helps others.

Read this if you can receive, but not send email

If you can receive, but cannot send email on your iPhone, try the following:
Add your outgoing Server Port Number to your "Outgoing Mail Server Name"
Example: smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number ( eg. 25 )
For specifics on how to do this, read on.
From the Home Screen, select:
Settings
*Mail,Contacts ...*
your email Account ex: [email protected]
Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server
Then select your outgoing mail server *SMTP smtp.example.com*
Select Primary Server smtp.example.com
Host Name change smtp.example.com to smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number.
This worked great, but unfortunately this helpful hint could not be found on the Apple support forum ... until now
Hope this helps!

This worked for me too! (iPhone 3G 2.02). Apple's once-over-lightly help with this issue is really lame. I thought better of Apple but they are turning into just another Dell or Microsoft.

Iphone 6 email will receive but not send

Since moving the stored iphone 4 backup to my iphone 6, I've been able to receive email on it but not send. Should I remove the account and reenter all the account information or ... is there another option?
Thanks,

Can receive, but not send emails

I've been trying to set up a new mail account on Apple Mail for the past several days. Thus far, I'm able to receive emails with the account, but not send. I've contacted my internet provider to confirm that my settings are correct, and they are, but it's still not working. They said I need to contact Apple.
He are my specifics:
MAC OS 10.5, Apple Mail, Time Warner Road Runner: Eastern North Carolina.
They have recommended: stmp-server.ec.rr.com, alternate port setting: 25. No SSL, and no authentication.
I have tried a few other settings too... the standard ports setting, alternate port setting: 587, SSL selected, and my user name and password for authentication.
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance!

I've had the same issue setting up my Time Warner Road Runner email account on a new iMac OS 10.5.5, so I can totally relate to your problem.
At first I could receive messages, but couldn't send. After multiple attempts to fix the settings, I finally found the right combination to be able to send:
1) Open the Mac Mail application
2) Click onto "Mail" in the top bar next to the apple symbol and click onto "Accounts"
3) Look down on the bottom of that window for the "Outgoing Mail Server" drop-down window, and click the drop-down window and select "Edit Server List"
4) Make sure that the server listed in the top of the next screen says:
smtp-server.ec.rr.com
5) Look down below in the same screen and click onto "Advanced"
6) Make sure the server port is 25 (not 587)
7) Also make sure that "Use Secure Socket Layers (SSL) is NOT CHECKED in the check box.
8) Make sure that the drop-down window below the server port info marked as "Authentication" is showing "none"
9) Click "OK"
10) Close out the Accounts window, so that it asks you to Save new settings. Be sure to hit "Save"
11) Close out of the Mac Mail program
12) Re-Open Mac Mail program and test it out by sending yourself.
13) You should see that dummy message sent out, and then received into your Inbox.
Hope this helps.

Can receive but not send mail

Because of buyout, had to switch over from Adelphia to Comcast this weekend. With the help of Comcast, reset Mac mail on both G4 and G3 running OS 10.4.9. Got everything finally working Sunday, but today, G4 will not send.
Error: "Message could not be delivered, will remain in Outbox until it can. Connection to server "smtp.comcast.net" on port 110 timed out." Any ideas?
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi,
I, too, got caught up in this Comcast busines. When I reset my Mail preferences per their instructions, I found that I could receive e-mail but not send it. After spending almost an hour with TWO of their so-called technical people, I was told that mine was an OEM problem and there was nothing else that Comcast could do for me.
YET, by changing the server port from Comcast's recommended 587 setting back to 25 (which it had been when I was with Time-Warner), I could then send e-mails!
Relieved but irritated,
Bill
