My Mac mail has stopped sending email.
I have changed the password, restarted, and looked for new updates. Nothing has helped. I can't even send a plain text email. I have no problems receiveing mail, or send and receiving through my browser or my phone. The outgoing mail just sits in the outbox and does nothing.
Anyone else had the same issue and resolved it?
BASICS Send & Receive
1. If you can send but not receive you have a bad POP or IMAP configuration (Incoming server)
2. If you can receive but not send then you have a bad SMTP configuration (Outgoing server)
EDIT SMTP SETTINGS
In Accounts window, select to Edit SMTP Server list...
Select account in the list.
Click on Advanced tab. Enter full email address and password
Open Connection Doctor under Window in the Menu bar.
Do you see green light for SMTP for your account?
It's not uncommon to find extra SMTP servers listed. When you remove account, Mail does not delete the smtp info. You might need to do some clean up.
If you still have problems....
What email provider? (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, Earthlink, Comcast, ATT, other)
If other please identity provider.

Why has my mac mails suddenly stopped sending email
I have a new mac air--not even 6 months old. My mac mail has had the same address for almost 10 years. In the last year my mac mail will suddenly stop sending. The last time I talked to mac support they said there was a definite problem and when the new update was installed with the fix, it would start working again--it did, a few weeks ago. Today...it stopped sending again. WHY?
How are you trying to read them? What process are you using and what applications are involved?

Pop gmail account using Mac Mail has stopped receiving email.
I have two pop gmail accounts using Mac Mail. One has stopped receiving email while one is fine. Both are set up exactly the same. Any idea how to fix this issue?
I saw on Yahoo's site the following:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-40.html
Does that address your problem?
I see you're using the UK version and that there's no similar page on the Yahoo UK site but perhaps it helps anyway. Have a look here as well: http://help.yahoo.com/l/uk/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/pop/pop-30.html

My mail has stopped sending. I can receive but I can't send.
My mail has stopped sending, even though I can still send via my iPod. Mail on my iMac can receive but not send. I've tried deleting the talktalk account and starting a fresh, but it's not made any difference. This has just started to happen, I was sending quite happily until now. Does anyone have a solution?
I get a message saying: Cannot send message using the server smtp.talktalk.net:(followed by my email address)I would think that at the very LEAST you would be eligible for a COMPLETE refund of ALL charges for insurance paid thru Verizon! They were charging you for something you were ineligible for! Verizon has a record of whether or not you purchased the phone from them - otherwise how could they deny the claim!
It very sad to see how customer service and customer satisfaction has been lost here ... ! -

Mail has stopped sending all email. Says all outgoing servers are offline and server certificate are invalid. Have gone into preferences/accounts/edit SMTP servers and reentered all data including user name and password.

TS3899 my phone has stopped sending emails
my i phone 5 has stopped sending emails,it has been playing up since 7.02 update

A single email account has 2 different servers, one for receiving and one for sending. BOTH have to be set up separately. I sounds like your outgoing server has "forgotten" your user ID and password.
Sometimes the two servers have the same URL, sometimes different, but even if they are the same URL they use different ports (which essentially makes them different servers) and must still be set up separately.
When you set up the account, after entering your user ID and password for receiving, you must tap the Outgoing (SMTP*) server settings, and enter the server address and your user ID and password a second time for the outgoing server. I know it says "optional", but that is only optional from the phone's perspective; it is not optional from the server's perspective, except in very rare situations where the outgoing server can only be accessed over a private network, and not over the Internet (cwmx.com is an example of an exception; it is AT&T's cellular network SMTP server). The reason it won't automatically use your incoming user ID and password is because there is no requirement that they be the same; for example, you can use Google's SMTP server for sending and a different ISP's server for receiving.

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. -
IBook. Mac Mail. Can send email.
iBook running OS 10.4.11. Mac Mail. Can send email, but not receive. Slow to send, goes to Outbox first. Can send and receive email via WebMail. Any ideas please.
Is your Mail set up properly? It is possible that you have set up the wrong SMTP & POP3 servers.

Mac Mail has stopped wrapping paragraphs 3 days after installing Maverick. How do I fix this?
For the fan issue, see if you can reset the SMC > Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
That may help the restarts as well. -
My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords.
My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords. Virgin have tried to resolve the issue and created new passwords. However, all are rejected by the Apple servers even though there is no problem with Virgin web mail. What can I do?
Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and delete the password from there. While there, run Keychain First Aid.

My Mac Outlook 2011 Stopped Sending Emails for all POP Accounts from Different Providers
I've had this problem before, but this time I am truly dumbfounded. My Outlook 2011 has randomly stopped sending emails, but I can still receive them. This has happened a few times and I normally change the ports/SSL and I can get it to work. But now I am at a loss. I have several email accounts that I manage. One of which is GMAIL, using IMAP, and this is the only account that currently works find receiving and sending. My POP accounts, four of them, all cannot send emails. They can only receive. One of them is with GoDaddy, and the other three are with an Asian company. I can't find any help on this. I've upgraded Office to the latest version. I've even deleted the accounts and added them back in, and I still can't send email. I'm frankly getting exhausted and sick of this type of problem happening. I honestly use this program and my MacBook Air to send clients information...only to find out hours later that a mail never sent because it's been stuck in my <hidden> Outbox in Outlook 2011. This has hurt me now badly on several occassions. Please HELP!
All SMTP servers are set correctly as far as I can tell, the connection doctor says everything is fine, and I removed all my accounts to re-add them. I added one and tried to send a message--stuck in the outbox--failed. I added another account and deleted the first one and tried to send a message--stuck in the outbox--failed. I'm pretty convinced the problem is with Mac's Mail client...I can send email from anywhere I've tried except for Mac's Mail client. Thanks for the help.
