Mail quit working.. outbound server off line

I receive email but I can't send email.....Is it a setting problem?

Hi ...
From your Mac Mail menu bar click Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online
If that doesn't help, restart your Mac then try sending mail.

    Cannot receive or send mail.  Server off line  "ssl off " . how do I turn on ssl?

    Hello there, gillaf.
    To turn adjust your SSL settings the following Knowledge Base article will be of assistance:
    Mac OS X Mail: About Secure Email Communications (SSL)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA25586
    Setting up Mail for SSL
    Important: These steps require Mac OS X 10.1.3 or later.
    1. Open the Mail application.
    2. Choose Preferences from the Mail application menu.
    3. Click Accounts.
    4. Select an account name, and click Edit.
    5. Click the Account Options tab.
    6. Click the Use SSL checkbox to enable this option.
    Selecting the checkbox will auto-populate the default port numbers. If there is a non-default port number already present, it will not change. You can manually enter a number if your ISP gave you a different port number. Be sure you enter the correct port for your mail server here when selecting SSL, even if it auto-populates a default number.
    Note: If SSL is accidentally set up when it should not be, or is configured using the incorrect port for your mail server, an alert box with a message similar to this may appear:
    "Fetch Error: Couldn't connect to a POP host name mail.apple.com."
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Mac mail quit working

    Mac mail quit working.  Message; you can not use this mail (4.3) with your OSX (10.7.4).  I've ran the software update and still no mail.

  • Mail quit working in Snow Leopard 3 days ago on both of my iMacs. I can't find a solution.

    Greetings:
    3 days ago my mac MAIL quit working. I get an (repeated popup) error message indicating that my password is invalid. Is thjere a solution to this issue?
    Thanks!

    You should continue to dry it in rice for a week and change the rice daily.
    All you can do is dry the iPod. Turning on the iPod before it is dry can can cause permanent damage.

  • Mail quit working.

    I use AOL for email but send and receive through Apple Mail. One day mail stopped sending and receiving; however, mail works for the second user on the computer. The connection doctor tells me that I am properly connected when I am loggin to the computer but there is no communication. What might the problem be?

    This week my Mail quit working...wouldn't open.
    Did you get an error message? Did the icon on the Dock just bounce then quit without doing anything, or did you get a rainbow cursor and have to force quit, or something else? Details!
    I downloaded and installed the application via Apple...no difference.
    You can't download Mail from Apple. Where specifically did you download it from? Or if you reinstalled from your Mac OS X disk, give us details on how you installed it and from what disks.
    I tried downloading the app again to my HD and got the message "You cannot install Mail Update on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
    This sounds like you were trying to download an update that was not appropriate for the version of Mail that was installed. Where were you downloading the update from? Find Mail in the Finder, select it and choose Get Info... what version of Mail is it?

  • Command line mail not working since Server 2.2

    Since Mountain Lion, everytime Server.app updates it borks my previous mail settings/hacks/workarounds to the issues with the last version. I just want sendmail, mail, postfix, etc to work and stay working. I even have my own list of stuff to reapply with each Server.app update, but sadly even that has stopped working.
    Just basic mail won't even work:
    $ mail adam
    Subject: test
    This is a test mail

    No mail for adam

  • ICloud mail quit working simultaneously on all devices and iCloud cannot load Mail.

    3:00 pm eastern time iCloud mail account on all devices (MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone) went to spin mode and and says "this account appears to be off-line due to a network problem.". But any attempt to take it online or to access iCloud online does not work.  iCloud says "cannot load mail", and then allows me to report the problem to Apple which I have done over and over again.  Looks like a major iCloud problem. Anybody else having this problem?

    Down in Washington DC too (on the web-site and in all IMAP clients), since about noon, local time. The "All services are online" at <http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/> looks quite annoying. Especially, since there are multiple threads reporting the same problem, all over the country and even abroad (UK).

  • Quicktime 7.4 upgrading error: server off-line?

    Hi Guys, hope someone would be able kindly to advise me on this. Yesterday I have upgraded my Quicktime to version 7.4 by downloading free version from Apple web-site (originally I had a 6.xx.xx version installed from my photo-camera software). Before the installation I’ve deleted the previous file version. The problem I’m experiencing now is that when I start the Quick Time by clicking on it, it stops (freezing) in the loading status and looks like not connecting to where it attempts to. Then if I am choosing in the menu bar to update the existing software, the following error message comes up:
    A connection with the Quick Time software server could not be established. The computer may be having trouble accessing the internet or the server may be off-line”.
    But my internet is surely connected and I was able to successfully update earlier program version. I’ve tried re-installing a couple of times, but nothing changes. Would it be better again to install the older version file then? Can anyone please give me a hand with this?

    Hi Guys, as I can't see many responses in this forum, can someone who's using QT 7.2 with Windows please do me a huge favour and just try to go for Update Existing and let me know if it is working. Looks like I have the same issue on other machine with elder version (6.1), what appears to be really strange.

  • Oracle 10g on Windows Server off-line database backup - a few questions

    I'd like to do an Oracle off-line backup every night. Please tell me what you think about my plan.
    First, run this batch file.
    set oracle_sid=PLDG
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\bin\sqlplusw.exe /nolog @c:\oracle\product\oradata\pldg\shutdb.sql
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\bin\oradim -shutdown -sid PLDG -shuttype srvc
    net stop OracleORADB10GTNSListenerPLDG
    This is the shutdb.sql script that the above batch file calls.
    set echo on
    spool C:\oracle\product\oradata\pldg\shutdb.log
    connect /@pledgemaker as sysdba
    shutdown immediate
    spool off
    exit
    ....that should shut down the database.
    Now I will copy the files that the following three queries pulls up to another server.
    SQL> select name from sys.v_$datafile;
    NAME
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\SYSTEM01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\UNDOTBS01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\SYSAUX01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\DRSYS01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\ODM01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\PLEDGEMAKER_DATA01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\PLEDGEMAKER_INDX01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\TOOLS01.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\USERS01.DBF

    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\PLEDGEMAKER_INDX02.DBF
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\PLEDGEMAKER_INDX03.DBF

    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\CONTROL02.CTL
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\CONTROL03.CTL
    After copying the above files, I want to start the database back up.  First I run this batch file
    set oracle_sid=PLDG
    net start OracleORADB10GTNSListenerPLDG
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\bin\oradim -startup -sid PLDG -starttype srvc,inst
    Then run this script.
    set echo on
    spool C:\oracle\product\oradata\pldg\startdb.log
    connect /@pledgemaker as sysdba
    startup
    spool off
    exit
    - Is this plan complete?
    - Will the filenames that the above three queries retrieve ever change in the future? Or do they remain the same?
    - There are other files in the C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\ORADATA\PLDG\ directory, such as TEMP01.DBF. I am assuming that I do not need to back these files up. Is this correct?
    Thanks so much for your help!

    Sorry, I should explain my situation better. Currently there is no backup in place right now so I just want to get SOMETHING running and backing up our data. I am an Oracle newbie compared to a lot of the experts on here - I just want to go with the simplest solution so that I can implement it ASAP. Then I can at least sleep at night.
    I agree that I should eventually get to learning RMAN and should understand it thoroughly. I've read a lot of the documentation on it but it can be really confusing. I mean there are 666 page books on Oracle backups - it is intimidating.
    Anyway, thanks for your help.

    Edited by: DataHandle on Jun 14, 2012 9:49 AMYes, the official documentation can be pretty overwhelming. I suggest you go to amazon and look up "RMAN Backup and Recovery" by Hart and Freeman. It is very well written and cuts through a lot of the clutter of the actual reference manual.
    For the immediate, here's what you need to do
    log on the the sever as 'oracle' - or whoever owns the oracle installation
    then
    rman target /
    rman> CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1;     << set this how you want -- it's a quick reference in the official docs
    rman> CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
    rman> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    rman> CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO COMPRESSED BACKUPSET;
    rman> CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT   '/oradata/fs91upg/upgbkup/%U';     << set the path to wherever you want to store your backup
    rman>the above commnads are one-time setup.
    rman> shutdown immediate
    rman> startup mount
    rman> backup database
    rman> alter database open
    rman> exitis your database in archivelog mode?

  • SENDER SERVER OFF-LINE

    Hi, experts!
    I have to implement a file to Idoc scenario.
    However, sender server can be off-line sometimes.
    How does file sender comm channel control this case?
    Would be a problem if sender server is off-line? or could sender CC get the file retrying again where connection it's possible?
    Carme

    If ur sender system is FTP, then
    <i>
    How does file sender comm channel control this case?</i>
    It will give an error in RWB - Communication channel monitoring
    <i>Would be a problem if sender server is off-line?</i>
    No problem. It will not pick up the files. Thats it. Once the server is up, it will reconnect to it.
    <i>or could sender CC get the file retrying again where connection it's possible?</i>
    Yes it will keep on trying

  • Outgoing mail server off-line:

    I have developed a problem with my MAIL email client. I cannot send out on either of my POP accounts but can receive. Outgoing mail goes via my gmail account server. I have checked the settings with Onetel and they are OK and also work using Mailzone. Outgoing also works using these settings on my iphone.

    Using the password method is not a hassle you are assuming you need to input the password everytime you email, that isn't the case. You input the information once and from there it's automated. Here is how you do it:
    Mail - Prefrences - Accounts Tab - highlight the account - click Outgoing Mail Server SMTP and choose Edit SMTP List - Click Advanced Tab - in Authentification choose Password and input the Username and PW info. Once that's done exit Preferences and send a test email to yourself.

    The mail app automatically closes when I open it since the update. I also tried to check the mail settings and they close as soon as i open as well. None of the other general settings do this. I have tried to reboot, resync, everything that i know of and nothing has helped.

    Fixed!
    I found an empty mail account on my iPhone. After deleting that account everything worked fine again.
