No
Sign out of iCloud (System Preferences>iCloud) restart and sign back in, make sure to turn on any services you require (Mail etc)

  • Outgoing mail server issue

    I cannot send outgoing my mail from my email account. Its saying
    two servers marked with
    alert icons are in conflict and cannot be saved.
    two servers cannot share the same address and authentication settings
    . resolve the certificate and try again.
    Ive delete the account now and re set them up but it still has an issue with the outgoing server which are the same .... Can anyone help?

    Is this MobileMe or dot Mac?
    If so...
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

  • Ipowerweb and outgoing mail server issues

    getting my POP account on my iPhone to send mail successfully has proven to be difficult.
    why is it that on my old Nokia E61 my incoming and outgoing mail server settings "mail.mydomain.net" worked regardless of whether i was on edge or wifi -- yet on my iPhone the only way i can send email is to turn wifi off, and input "cwmx.com" as my outgoing mail server and send sloooowly over edge?
    i guess my question is, what is different about the way the iPhone connects to different servers, if my old phone did not have any issues with it at all - and how can i remedy this? shouldnt it be as simple as sycing the settings from my POP account on my G5? what am i missing here...and is this specific to ipowerweb hosting?
    thanks

    aegez,
    As a point of clarification, if you are going to use Port 25 on EDGE you have to use cwmx.com. Many networks filter port 25 traffic because of port 25 traffic has been abused by people sending unsolicited bulk email (aka spam). AT&T's EDGE network is not the only network to filter port 25.
    The iPhone in some situations will try other common ports, many of which will require authentication.
    If you are using an outgoing mail server that requires authentication on a port besides port 25 it should work on both WiFi and EDGE in most situations. The exception would be on networks that filter traffic on all ports as a security major, such as some work environments.

  • Can I set my iCloud email as the outgoing mail server for my google apps email account in Mac Mail?

    I have a google apps email account from an old client, all my work emails have been going to it for years. As I'm no longer affiliated with this client I'd like to make a transition to using my iCloud account for work. I asked people to use my iCloud address but as they've been using my google apps address for years it's what automatically comes up when they type my name.
    I figure the easiest way to make a transition is if I reply to all the emails that arrive at my old address from my iCloud address and gradually they will start using my new address without realising it. But I can't find a simple way to do this.
    In Mac Mail preferences > accounts > Google IMAP (my old account name) > Account information > Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) I'd like to set my iCloud SMTP server. But although my iCloud account uses its own outgoing mail server for its own account , it is not in the server list when I select my google account. I've tried to add it to the server list as smtp.mail.me.com but it caused my whole iCloud account to give me error messages until I force quit Mail...
    Any ideas?

    In iCloud/Mail, have you tried going to Preferences (select with gear at lower left)/Composing and setting a Send from address there?

  • TS3988 No preferred outgoing mail server for icloud

    Hi, I suddenly cant use my icloud account, it says I dont have a preferred outgoing mail server and it wont let me put one in, even if I knew what it was..!  ? Please help..B

    Go to apple >> system preference >> I cloud.  Uncheck mail for a moment and recheck it.  Or did you setup mail manually at some point?

  • Outgoing mail server using Mail is no good?  Have anything to do with iCloud?

    I think after I switched over to iCloud - though I don't know why that would affect Mail - I now, can't get any messages to send.  Outgoing mail server is bad.  But I use the connection doctor and it says all is fine (green light).  Any help?!

    When you enable Mail from the iCloud prefpane, iCloud automatically sets up Mail App for iCloud. There are occassional bugs in iCloud servers for me too. Uncheck Mail in the pref pane, delete the iCloud account from Mail and restart. After restart, again enable Mail in the iCloud pref pane. It should work now.

  • Mail trouble with outgoing mail server

    For weeks now (relatively recent), MAC mail will not send consistantly. When I choose my outgoing mail server in the preferences panel and check "use only this server", Mail often will not send my message. If I leave that outgoing server as "none", my first outgoing message of the day will prompt me to choose one, and then subsequent messages are sent without asking. Inconvenient at the least - something's not right.
    Any help?

    Thanks for response.
    I have deleted ALL accounts (to start fresh) but the unused outgoing servers 'refuse' to leave
    I want to delete them to keep things tidy, also I have issues with using alternate outgoing server (next issue), so trying to start from the beginning again, before attempting to address next issue.

  • Can I have Craigslist select AOL as the outgoing mail server when I reply to an ad?

    Although in IMail Preferences I presently have AOL selected as my outgoing mail server, Craislist instead selects my IMail server, which has never worked properly. What can I do to have these Craigslist replys sent via AOL? I'm using an Imac desk top with OS 10.5.8  Thank you, Rick.

  • OS X Mavericks Mail losing contact with outgoing mail server after waking from sleep.

    I upgraded my MAcBook Air to OS X Mavericks two days ago. Since then I have had intermittent problems connecting to my outgoing mail server. I get the "Unable to Receive Mail" error message. When I click "Take All Accounts Online," I get an additonal error message stating that connection to the host on the specifided port failed. I am using a different outgoing server for mail and I can continue to send emails.
    Putting the computer to sleep seems to trigger the problem. Sometimes restaring the computer resloves the problem, sometimes it does not. Any help would be greatly appriciated as this problems his disrupted my workflow significantly.

    Fixed. In case anyone has the same issue, I went to Internet Accounts, unclicked mail, and then re-clicked it. It worked. Disabling it in the mail configuration did not work, but it did in Internet Accounts.
