On the 6 Plus, I can receive email, but unable to send email. Error message is "Cannot Send Mail. The connection to the outgoing server...failed."

I have tried everything. Any ideas?

If you truly tried everything there is no hope of ever making it work. But perhaps you missed something, so here are a few things (and if you've tried them...)
Reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears
Go to Settings/Mail,contacts,calendars, tap on a mail account. Make sure there's an entry for SMTP or Outgoing mail server (You may need to tap on Account to see the entry)
Tap on SMTP and make sure you have entered your email name and password (even if it says "optional")
If there's more than one server listed make sure the appropriate one for that account is the primary
If all of the above is correct delete the account, reboot the phone, and add the account back

HT1277 i can receive mail but unable to send mail

i can receive mail but unable to send mail

I'm yet another person who upgraded to Maverick OSX. I'm now thinking, "BIG mistake". Mail was working perfectly. Then, last night, Mail stopped sending.
I've checked everything. Comcast servers are set up correctly. Mail works fine on my ipad, but will not send. It gives me a SMPT error of "Cannot send message using the server comcast.net--authentication rejected" Comcast.net (Offline). I can not get it back online. I've also tried the fixes here, but there is no info.plist by those names in my library!
Anyone have any other ideas how to get this working again? Apple's OS's have been pretty decently stable in the past. I had no thought that the upgrade would be so problematic. Live and Learn.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi my nan keeps Getting an error message of cannot get mail the connection to the server failed.... Can any one tell me what this means please

I too am getting this message. I have been using my iPad for two years with no problems but a couple of days ago I starting having this problem intermittently. I have restarted the iPad when that did not work I deleted the account and reloaded it. Nothing seems to work. I was having the same problem on my iPhone but that seems to be OK today. Any other ideas?

This article has a link for more information on finding your profile directory: [[Fix the "Could not initialize the application's security component" error message]]. On Windows 7, you can try this (either in a Windows Explorer window address bar or from the start menu search box):
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
You may see one folder in there and that's the one you want. If you see more than one, look for the one with the most recently modified files.

TS1398 My iPad cannot send mail - the connection to the outgoing server failed

My iPad cannot send mail - the connection to the outgoing server failed.

Go to the email settings, and re-enter your Outgoing Server username and password.
Have you changed that recently, perhaps on the Incoming Server but not on the Outgoing server?

TS1702 cannot send Mail   The connection to the outgoing server failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings Mail, COntacts, Calendars

Cannot send outgoing messages from my IPhone. Receive the following message:

Can receive mail, but unable to send mail

am able to receive mail, but unable to send any whether through Mail or Entourage.
didn't have this problem yesterday. Strangely enough, i am still able to send mail through my yahoo.com account. so there's nothing wrong with my connection.
is there any fix to the problem encountered in my Mail.app?

Did you accidently change the port through which you send mail?
What smtp server do you use to send mail out? and please check the port number of that outgoing mail. It should be 25 for your own internet provider.

Connection to the outgoing server failed

My iPhone keeps saying connection to the outgoing server "smtp.mac.com" failed. I also have 2 unsent messages that have been trying to send for 2 weeks. I have 2 questions:
1) How do I get rid of the connection failure?
2) Where are the unsent messages and how do I delete them?
Thanks for any advice

whoa and behold guys, I have the same problem BUT I fixed it. I was up all night looking for answers. I wanted to reply back this morning from a guys email sent to my aol email stating to pray for a job promo. this morning newspaper he made headlines for the school district board of something I dunno..
So I wanted to reply congrats, but thats were I encountered the problem.
I figured I put in the USERNAME and PASSWORD, AGAIN in the outgoing mail server portion (smtp), which is the last portion. leave your advance settings the same as usual I think. for mines, use SSL on both incoming and outgoing, password authentication, and of course 993 port for incoming, 587 for the other..
I tested mailing from my gmail to my aol mail address, and I had my aol software open. I checked aol mail on my iphone, and while watching the aol screen the mailbox icon went away.. MAGIC!!
but thats not what you want to hear..... i replied BACK on my iphone.. and it SENT!!! i checked my gmail.. WHOA AND BEHOLD there it IS!!!! you guys will want to thank me badly LOZL

Airport extreme continuously blinks orange, it is an older model not used for some time. airport utility can see it but just reports an unexpected error message.

My airport extreme continuously blinks orange. I have tried unplugging and starting again also pressing the reset button to no avail. It shows as connected to the internet but when selected in airport utility I just receive the message "unexpected error occurred try again" and I can't get past this point. any ideas?

Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

Hi,
If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) you can try to temporarily disable it for a few minutes, visit a safe site (e.g. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird), download and check. Please also see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls#Firewall_pitfalls this].
If it works you can then try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

Check the thumbnails for exclamation marks, an indication of missing files. If you have moved images or folders using your computer operating system LR won’t know what you did and the original links will have been broken. You need to point LR to where you now keep the image(s) on your hard drive.

That sounds like a settings issue to me. Check with your IT depatment to make sure you have it configured properly.
