Mac Mail won't send .mac mail
All of a sudden Mac Mail won't send mail from my .mac account through it's mail server even though the MobileMe sends mail just fine.
Anyone know what may be up?
I hate using the mobile me mail.
I experienced the same problem--unable to SEND mail using MobileMe server. Changed to port 587, now seems to work (cross fingers).
I also noticed that I cannot change the incoming mail server name from "mail.mac.com" to "mail.me.com." When I try to change then save, it reverts to "mail.mac.com."
By the way, under the "Advanced" menu, can anyone explain "IMAP Path Prefix"? It's blank by default, I gather. Why might someone use a prefix here? Also the default port is 143 and the "Use SSL" block is unchecked.
Merely curious.

My Mail won't send e-mails.
Seems to be since the last Lion update? Was working fine and I haven't changed anything. Still receives, but won't send. I did double check the account, but it seems to be right. I did connection doctor- it shows 2 accounts (same name) though I only have one?? One connects and the other doesn't. Help...
Becky,
Check your smtp server and check if your password is added. After ungrading Mail might have lost the password. -
Mail won't send and mail disappears
When I receive emails they sometimes disappear before I can open them. Not all of them, just some. This happens most obviously when I use my iPhone to access mail. Now, sometimes when I write an email it disappears when I hit "send". When they disappear they're gone. Not in the trash, not in the junk. What's going on?

I probably phrased my question wrong.....I just meant I use imap verses pop.
When I go into SMTP settings, it has "optional" password, which is supposed to solve the issue
with not being able to send emails, but no matter how many times I enter it and save the settings, it's gone when I go back in (because the emails still won't send).
And other ideas? -

I use aol and since I updated to version 5 I can't send aol mail but I can receive it. Has anyone had that problem and found a solution?
I'm using AIM mail on my iPad 2 with no problems. I can send and receive.
I assume it was working fine before the upgrade? Did you double-check the settings? -
E-Mail won't send my mail from GMail account
My e-mail keeps on telling me that it can't send e-mails from my GMail account and it's the primary account I use for sending e-mails. Please, tell me what do i have to do in order to be able to send e-mails from my Maill app on my iMac?
photo: http://cl.ly/image/2j1s0h2d1H18The error message says that you don't have an outgoing mail server selected. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and select the gmail account in the left hand panel. Next go to "Outgoing Mail Server" :
It should read smtp.gmail.com if you are using pop. If it is blank click on it and it should display whatever outgoing servers you have configured. If the only option you have is to "Edit SMTP Server List" then you need to enter the information as shown below.
These are the standard settings for gmail pop:
You will also need to set password authentication on your outgoing (SMTP) mail as shown below: -
Apple Mail won't send invitations when initially closed
I just started using iCal to send invitations for appointments through Apple Mail. When Apple Mail is opened already when I create the appointment and click Send in iCal, it works fine. The mail is sent and delivered to the appropriate address.
But if Apple Mail is closed initially, the application starts and the invitation is queued up in the Outbox but is never sent. I can manually open up each invitation in Mail and send them individually, but why is the behavior different? Whether Mail is opened or closed when I send an invitation, it ought to deliver the invitation automatically. By not being sent, I may not realize the invitation hasn't been delivered, making the process very error-prone. Is there a way to guarantee the invitation actually gets sent without having to check the Outbox every time?
Is this an iCal bug or an Apple Mail bug? I saw no settings in Apple Mail for sending messages at shutdown or any other setting like this. Instead, these invitations may end up being buried in my Outbox for a very long time before I notice and by then, it may be too late.ronright wrote:
Since I bought a new modem/router (Netgear n600), my Apple mail won't send e-mails. It will receive. My ISP is AT&T & the email accounts are via yahoo. I have a Macbook Pro with a recent OSX.
The most recent OS is currently OS 10.8.3. Your system profile confirms you are still using Mac OS X (10.7.5). If this is incorrect, please correct your profile so that you will get the correct troubleshooting suggestions/solutions.

TS3276 Mac Mail won't send emails with signatures
My Mac Mail won't send emails with signatures. I get the "whoosh" sound and they show in sent mail, but the recipient doesn't receive them until I take off the signature and resend the email. Without a signature, it is received. It never used to be a problem, but started this past month. Please advise!
Did Earthlink have you try using their authenticated SMTP server?
If not, try changing Earthlink's SMTP server settings to the following:
SMTP Server: smtpauth.earthlink.net
Server Port: 25 or 587. Assuming Earthlink is your ISP, 25 should work.
Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): Off or not selected.
Authentication Type: MD5 Challenge-Response. Not sure if this authentication type is available with 10.2 and if not, select Password.
User Name: Your entire Earthlink email address.
Password: The password for your Earthlink email account - the same password used to check the incoming mail server for new messages. -

Imac mail won't send messages
See if this helps. I recieved this from Comcast back in November 2012, but may have something to do with it.
Dear Valued XFINITY Internet Customer,
Action Taken:
On August 1, Comcast announced that we will no longer support the use of port 25 for sending email. Many older email clients (such as Outlook Express) default to using this port to send email. Please read this message to understand how this action may impact your ability to send email, and what you should do next.
Comcast Webmail Users:
If you use a web browser to access Xfinity Connect or other webmail service, this action will not affect your ability to send or receive e-mail.
Email Program Users (Outlook Express, Outlook, MacMail, etc.):
If you use an email program, this action will disable your program's ability to send email until you change your email program settings to send email on port 465.

I set up mac mini and when I test the mail server by sending a mail from administrator to administrator I get the error message 'Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024: Connection refused'. Can any one suggest a solution
Thanks. Where could I possibly look for a firewall rule. I knowingly did not creat any. My system has internet coming to a Modem which then is connected to a wireless router. I have computers connecting to the router through cable as well as wireless. One of these computers has been our mailserver using Mercury and Pegasus and that computer has a static IP address. The Mac Mini also has been assigned a different srtatic IP address. I have only set up user account, none of them an email account as I initially expect them to receive only internal mails. Is it necessary that I must set up an email id for each user while setting up the user account. My server id is server.local. So would the email id for local users be [email protected]?

Mail won't send mail when in wireless mode but works fine when wired
Ok, this happens all the time. I have several pop email accounts, all of which work fine when I am hooked in to an ethernet cable, but Apple Mail won't send any of my outgoing mail form any of my accounts when i'm am working wirelessly.
I always get a message like:
Cannot send message using server smtp.name.net
I try to switch servers and I cycle through all of them, getting them same message, followed by things like:
The server response was: 5.1.2 Bad or missing RCPT domain k39sm5757680wah
Any advice.Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
You may use “network locations” to more easily switch between network settings if necessary, as described here:

Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.

Mail won't send without Connection Doctor having to be launched.
Mail won't send without Connection Doctor having to be launched. After running Connection Doctor, it will send, so settings all must be ok. But 15 minutes later, I need to "check again" to send mail. I read previous posts on this from a few years ago, but my laptop is running Lion.
Try just watching the "Activity" window to learn what is happening to your mail - I have found it to be most enlightening.
