New MacBook- Can't send email. I've changed ports and still the same thing

Hello. I just got my MacBook and I can receive email fine, but I can't send emails. I read the forums and was advised to change my port from 25 to 587 or 143. I'm not sure how someone determines what port I'm suppose to be using? The error I receive is that port 587 or 143 has timed out.
Please help. Thank you.

how are you connected to the internet? try going straight into your modem, could be a port issue on a router
does your smtp server need authentication? does it use ssl?
port 587 usually does work if 25 doesn't but those are the 2 main ports used, if neither works verify what port your ISP is using

    Hi johnnytoo!
    I know it's aggravating when you need to send an email and it doesn't go through! I have a link that provides step by step information from Apple's website that should resolve this for you.

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

  • I can't send emails. I receive a message saying: the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.

    I can't send emails anymore. Lately out of nowhere, I couldn't dend any emails fom my Ipad. I receive a message saying: the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works.

  • How to send IP Addr in an alert and receive the same?

    1. I have an 'alert handler' process that's sending an alert using 'Create Alert' activity.
    2. I have a listening/receiving process that get's triggered by this alert from the 'alert handler' process.
    3. The listening/receving process telnet's to a router. I want the listening/receiving process to extract the IP Address of the router from the alert that triggered this listening proecess.
    4. I tried sending the IP address of the router as 'Parameter 1' using the 'Create Alert' activity in the 'alert handler' process.
    5. In the receiving process, in order to telnet to the router, I chose 'Execute on this target reference' option for the 'Open Terminal' acitivity, but was unable to access 'Paramter 1' of the alert. It shows greyed out.
    Question:
    What is the best way to send the IP address of the router in the alert and receive the same in the listening process such that I can telnet to that router in the listening process?
    Please note: tried creating a 'terminal target'...there is no way for me to supply IP address info from outside into terminal target...looks like terminal target only takes a hard coded IP address or host name.
    Will appreciate your prompt response please.
    thanks,
    Jamal

    We discussed this, but just to post here. To view alert or other tasks parameters via the reference variable fields you have to select the show advanced checkbox.

  • I dowloaded a book to itunes and i can played but when I dowloaded to mi i pod nano 6 the file is wrong i tryed several times and do the same thing :( what can i do?

    I dowloaded a book to itunes and i can play it BUT when I downloaded to my ipod it get the wrong file! I tryed deveral times and keep doing the same thing, how can i fix it? I apreciate your help.

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
    If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

    The error I see is you did not specify the proper authentication for the smtp server.
    In the Mail preferences for the account, smtp popup, select Edit SMTP Server List.  A sheet will drop down.  Select Advanced tab on that sheet.  You should, I assume, set the Authentication to password, and set the proper username and password.  That's where the poper would be set if 587 is not the one you should be using.  Maybe it is.  I only bring it up since I see it trying to use port 587.
    If you got this stuff already set correctly then I don't know.  Mail has a problem in your setup.  Maybe delete the account and recreate it from scratch.

  • New iPad2; can't send email. Exact msg is "CANNOT SEND EMAIL. Check the settings for the outgoing servers in Settings Mail,contacts,calendars

    Email was set up manually (gmail). Pls help

    And you can receive email? You set up your Gmail account using the "Gmail" option and not the "Microsoft Exchange" option, right?
    Are you sure that the Internet connection you're using allows IMAP support?
    Also, I think you need to enable IMAP in your Gmail settings as well.

  • I am unable to send emails in one go. we used to do same thing using MS-Outlook quite easily. Hoping best reply

    In outlook after pressing send button it will directly goes into outbox and we can send another mail in the mean time but here in thunderbird we have to wait to send another mail until the previous mail has been sent.

    If you want to send immediately, you need to be in 'online' mode and the 'Send' button is available. Then click on 'Send' to send that email.
    However, your description sounds like you want to create several emails, store them in 'Outbox' and then send all in one go. In which case do not use 'Send' for obvious reasons.
    Instead use 'Send Later', then the email will be sent to the 'Outbox' where it will stay until you right click on 'Outbox' folder and choose 'Send unsent messages'.
    In a new Write message, in 'online' mode, the 'Send' button will be available. There is a small arrow to the right of 'Send' button, it displays a drop down selection which includes 'Send Later' option.
    'File' > 'Send Later' is also available.
    If you are in 'offline' mode then the 'Send' button is by default replaced by 'Send Later' button.
    'Offline' means Thunderbird is not using the internet, so cannot send an email, hence the 'Send Later' option is only available.
    You can swap between 'online' and 'offline'.
    When in 'Online' mode you will see two blue screen icons in bottom left of Status bar. Clicking on this icon will change to 'Offline' mode and show a two black screen icon. Click ing on that will take you back to 'online' mode.
    You do not have to be in 'offline' mode to use 'Send Later' option.
