Mail 6.6 no longer connects to Gmail

I use Apple Mail (I think version 6.6, whichever comes with MAC 10.8.5 on the MacBook Pro I bought in April) for accessing my Gmail accoun. Over the past weekend it stop sending out-going messages but was stil able to download and read new message; then as of yesterday I can no longer download new mail. Whenever I start the application, Apple Mail asks for my GMail password, which I type in, and then it tells me that it cannot connect. I use IMAP settings, and in the account settings it tells me that the outgoing server is offline.
My Gmail account is functional (I have full use through the Gmail website), and I can read and send mail from my iPhone, which I believe has the same settings for the account. Thus the issue is with Apple Mail, which suddenly stopped working. I have yet to completely delete the Gmail account and configure it again, as I am hesitant, given that my iPhone is still working, will solve the problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I have 2 Gmail accounts and one sends out and the other doesn't. Both are getting incoming mail.
Does using SMTP or POP or some other configuration make a difference?
In reference to your specific issue, Gmail accounts can be configured as either POP or IMAP for incoming messages but the only protocol for outgoing messages is SMTP.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the only protocol used for outgoing messages.
POP (Post Office Protocol) is for incoming messages.
IMAP (Internet Mail Access Protocol) is an alternative protocol for incoming messages
POP stores the messages on your computer while IMAP accesses messages stored on on the email server. IMAP is preferred when you access your email from several different devices such as your home computer, your office computer, your iPhone, your iPad. Wikipedia has good articles on all these different protocols if you want more information.
There are a lot of reasons why you may not be able to send from the one account including the way the account is configured at Google as well as errors in your setup of the account in Mail. Google tech support is not easy to contact but because of the range of possibilities they might be your best source for solving this issue.

Mail on mac air not connecting with Gmail

Hello
I have a Mac Air and Mail has been working fine but stopped a couple of months ago. Same account still works fine on iPad and iPhone. I have not changed anything like passwords etc.and I can still connect with gmail via safari on this device. Looked at Connection Doctor and internet connection is fine but connection to IMAP and SMTP are saying connection failed and asking to verify username and password. That verification comes up when I first open Mail but the password is not accepted.
Has anyone else had similar problems.

N73 will no longer connect to Gmail application

Hello, I've seen this problem all over the internet and no one seems to have ever found a solution. I live in France I have a Nokia N73 and my provider is Bouygues Telecom. I have had the same brand and make of phone for 3 years (my current one is just a few months old)
I have not been able to connect to the Gmail application (either the classic red one or the blue one-mail by google)for one week now. My web browser works perfectly and always has, my native email works very well (configured to email)My configuration settings, gmail pop settings are all correct. I have phoned my provider and nothing has changed on their end. I have tried removing the gmail app and re-downloading-for all the different versions of it, tried switching it off, removing the battery and I have even reset the phone to no avail. When I open gmail app it just keeps searching and then it says I don't have a connection. This has never happened before, I've been using gmail app for a couple of years since it came out with no problems and I'd really rather continue using it as it's really handy. Any ideas?

use IMAP. dont use POP for incoming connection settings.
imap.gmail.com
port: default or, 993
smtp.gmail.com
port: default
access point: (use your service provider access point. all small letters with no gap)
user name: [email protected]
pass: (your pass)
I use N73. Works well. please use updated firmware for removing any error.

Mail and Safari no longer connect to the Internet, but connection is live?

I have a Quicksilver G4 running OSX 10.4.11 with Safari 3.0.4 and Mail 2.1.3, connected to the Internet via Ethernet and a BT home Hub setup. Recently the Mac refused to connect to the Internet although a PC connected to the same hub did. I tested the connection with a laptop and found the cable to be fine and a good connection. I ran system diagnostics which tells me the Mac is connected to the Internet and the connection is fine - except that Mail no longer sends or receives mail, and Safari tells me I am not connected to the Internet.
I've tried every test I can think of - the connection appears fine as far as the ethernet cable, Network Diagnostics state that I have a good connection, yet neither application will connect to the server. I have changed no software in years other than Apple updates, and this is the first problem in many months of trouble-free usage.
The BT Home Hub is showing as an active location in system profiler, all else that should be, appears enabled. Can anyone help?
What more can I do to get my Mac back on-line?

Hi Heather,
In System Preferences>Network>Proxies Tab, make sure none are checked ON.
Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Airport Interface...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
So if you put 17.149.160.49 in Safari's URL bar & it connects to Apple, then these DNS numbers should cure it.

Mail 7.1(1827) stopped connecting to gmail

So using imap with gmail.
All of a sudden accounts went offline, connection doctor keeps saying that mail cannot connect to SMTP/Imap server.
Tried to redo the accounts, no luck. (yes, using google provided settings)
Alternative mail programs (sparrow/airmail) with imap work ok.

Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
imap.gmail.com
Launch the Network Utility application.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important Note
Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.

Mail App no longer connecting with Hotmail accounts

I have had my hotmail accounts connected to my Mail app on my iMac for years, no problem. As of yesterday the Mail App wil no longer connect with any of my hotmail accounts. It is connecting with my gmail accounts.
The error message I get is: "UNable to receive Mail: There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “EKRDL” or try again. The server returned the error: The server “pop3.live.com” refused to allow a connection on port 995"
Hep anyone? What is happening here?

You're welcome.
How the heck did you figure that one out?!
I didn't, actually. Someone else in this forum (and probably other people in other forums as well), figured it out by looking at the changes introduced by the Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update, and checking his/her own settings accordingly:

IPad no longer connecting to mail

My iPad mail app is no longer connecting to my iCloud mail account.
It connects fine to gmail (through the mail app) so I know it's working!
I've tried deleting iCloud, rebooting the iPad and reinstalling iCloud but no joy.
Any ideas please?

Just spent an hour on the phone with Apple Support.
The first contact was useless - reading from a script, couldn't think past the script. She wanted to reset the iPhone and iPad - which I refused to do - too many problems with subscritions afterwards.
She bounced me to a Supervisor - while I was on hold, I created a new iCloud account and set it up on my iPhone - it worked without problems. The Supervisor immediately recognized that meant the issue was on their end, not on my iPhone or iPad. He put the account in "troubleshooting mode" - took it out of "troubleshooting mode" - put it back in "troubleshooting mode" - no sucess. He then put me on hold to contact their Engineers.
While on hold this time - I went to iCloud.com - logged into the troubled account - created a rule to bounce all incoming email from the troubled account to the account I just set up and now all my email is coming into the second account!
Supervisor gets back on the line - I tell him what I did. He said at least that's a work around for now. They were going to investigate more - should get back to me in 4 - 24 hours. Until then my work around is working. I've tested it multiple times from different email accounts - it's bouncing email to where it should be.
Turned off Calendar, Contacts, Reminders, etc on the second account - just left Mail on. Also left the troubled account up and running on my iPhone so I can see when it / if it starts working again. Turned off the troubled accounts Mail on the iPad though.
As a note - I am a LEGACY Mac.com subscriber. I have gone from Mac.com to MobileMe to iCloud now. I noticed through all of this that suddenly my login info on my iOS devices has swithced from [email protected] to [email protected] I pointed that out to the Supervisor - he thought that might have something to do with it.
Are the rest of you that are having problems also old Mac.com users?

IPhone Mail App cannot connect with gmail iMap server

So my gmail address list or contacts seems to have been hacked and all my contacts who are still talking to me have told me so.
So I changed my gmail password.
No more complaints, and probably no more friends as contacts.
But seriously, I have been able to get gmail (web) working with my new double authentication password(s). Also, my outlook for MAC is working using the special "generated App Password". (because Outlook cannot do the double authentication thingie)
Ditto for the gmail app from google on my iPhone. (it works too)
BUT
I cannot get the iPhone Mail App to connect to Gmail.
I have deleted (i thought) my existing gmail setup from my iPhone. When I try to re establish the gmail settings, using either the password generated by the MAC / iCloud keychain generator or the App password, I get the message "My Name" is already added.
It looks to me that there is something in the iPhone that matches my gmail address, even though I deleted the account.
Any suggestions before I call Apple for help?
Thanks
Barry

I think so.
Actually I think I need to get the App Password for Mail on my phone. It generates the app password and I enter it into the password in the gmail setup for mail.
The problem is that when I hit next on that page, I get the message:
"my name" is already added" and I cannot proceed.
Before doing this setup I deleted my gmail account by tapping the email address and hitting delete in the Mail, Contact and Calendars setup..
but, there is something hiding in my iPhone that remembers my old gmail password (I guess) and doesn't let me proceed.
If I enter my gmail iChain password I get the same thing.
If i do this in airplane mode (no connection to google) i also get the same.
I talked to an apple care person who had me reset all my settings... still the same thing.
I am trying to avoid a gull reset of the iPhone, but that may be in the cards.
Going to go to the apple store and ask there, but i am not hopeful.

10.4.7 - can no longer connect to mail server (SSL)

After installing 10.4.7 I can no longer connect to my mail server.
My mail server uses SSL on port 993 - but when I look at the error message when mail tries to connect I get the following:
"There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account <accountname> or try again.
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server <servername> on port 0 timed out."
Why is it trying to connect on port 0?

Found the solution in MacFixIt - unchecking the SOCKS proxy fixes the problem.

Hi - for some reason, my IPAD3 mail client has decided it can no longer connect to my Exchange server.

Hi - for some reason, my IPAD3 mail client has decided it can no longer connect to my Exchange server. It's worked like a charm for weeks. Any thoughts?
For the record, I've got a POP mail account that is working fine on the machine and the WIFI is up and running (Safari is loading fine).
Thanks

Hi Jim,
Your issue is the most FAQ in the forums, it is an ongoing problem with Tiger waiting to be fixed by Apple. Till then, forget your aliases and use either Command-K or from the Finder Go-->Connect to Server and enter the remote Mac's IP address to connect.
Also, Open Utilities-->Terminal and type lookupd -flushcache (Press Return) and reboot. Do this for both macs.

Apple Mail app no longer connecting to incoming mail server

Hi.
I use the integral Apple Mail email client under OS X 10.8.
Until this afternoon, all was well and I could send & receive my emails without any problem. (Suggesting that all the server settings & preferences are correct in Mail.)
This afternoon Mail suddenly was unable to connect to my incoming (IMAP) mail server, and I still cannot get it to connect.
I do still receive email from the same server on my iPhone though, so that suggests that the server itself is working correctly.
I've tried quitting Mail and re-launching it, and I've tried editing the server settings, saving the new settings and then reverting to the old ones and re-saving, but to no effect.
The problem exists on both of the user accounts we have set up on this Mac, and both user accounts use the same IMAP server, but with different names of course.
I'm at a loss as to what might have occurred here, and an even further loss as to what else I can try to resolve the problem.
Anyone any ideas please?
ps. While I was typing this an email arrived in my Mail inbox! BUT... I still have the little !-triangles by the side of my account in Mail, and when I click on them the 'Alert' tells me that there 'may be a problem with the server or network' and, "The server returned the error: The connection to the server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” on port 993 timed out."
So it looks like I'm getting emails somehow, but there is still a problem somewhere.

I started having this same problem yesterday after installing the Safari 7.0.6 update. This has to be a coincidence.
I have 11 email accounts setup in Apple Mail. The only one working now is my work exchange email. The rest are either accounts I host on my own OS X Mavericks Server using IMAP and SMTP over SSL except for two of them which are GMAIL and iCloud.
Same issue. The iMac just displays the warning triangle symbol and when I click I get the Unable to Connect dialog with the message.
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “iCloud” or try again.
The server returned the error: The server “p03-imap.mail.me.com” cannot be contacted on port 993.
I have verified the settings on all of my IOS devices and they are the same. As with the original post, my IOS devices are all able to connect to all of my accounts without any problems.
To try and troubleshoot this issue I switched to another user account and tried to connect to one of my mail accounts and got the same Unable to Connect issue. I then opened another email client (Thunderbird) and configured the email account exactly the same there (IMAP on port 993 and SMTP on port 587). Thunderbird was able to connect and retrieve my mail without any problems. As an additional test I opened up terminal and tried "telnet p03-imap.mail.me.com 993". I was immediately connected to the iCloud server.
To sum up this does not appear to be a problem with the iMac, the user account, my mail server or the network. It appears to be a problem with Apple Mail only.
I wonder if there is a plist file or something that needs nuking.

Ipad air 2 no longer connects to BT mail

After installation of iOS8.1.1, iPad Air 2 no longer connects to BTmail accounts. Mail settings appear to be the same as on iPhone5 with the same iOS version which does connect just fine. Have tried wiping and reinstalling mail accounts without success. Any ideas?

Yes Meherally I tried that earlier today. The router had been off all night and the ipad was the only thing I attempted to connect.
Diavonex , I have rebooted the thing at least 5 times. This has been going on for days.
Starting to think its the ipad...
Thanks guys : )

Upgraded (?) to U-verse. Thunderbird accounts no longer connect/read mail. Help.

Did you add Gmail's certificate to the trust store? Check this link: Configuring SSL

I'm unable to connect my Gmail accounts to Apple Mail.

All - I've been working on this for hours.
All I want to do is connect my gmail accounts to Apple Mail. I'm running a new Macbook Air w Mountain Lion, Apple Mail 6.5. I can access the accounts on my ipad and iphone. I've spent hours reading forums and help areas.
Mail repeatedly asks for my password. In the account settings it does not save my password.
I've gotten the message that Mail cannot connect to Google imap server, but I do not believe this is a "timing" issue
Here's what I've tried:
Apple Side:
- Tried adding and deleting accounts several times within mail application
- tried using System Preferences > Mail/Contacts etc.
- Changed imap.gmail.com to imap.google.com
- changed to custom dedicated port for outgoing mail (587)
- closed and relaunched Mail
- Rebooted and safe rebooted computer
- set up and deleted accounts
- turned off gmail on phone and ipad
Google Side:
- Enabled IMAP
- Not using 2 step verification
- Checked Captcha

If you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate an application-specific password in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password.
