Outgoing email suddenly stopped working this weeke...

I've seen may posts on this issue but not seen a solution that works for me yert:
I have a @btinternet.com email address and have been happily using this via iMac, iPad and webmail to send and receive emails no problem for a long while. A couple of days ago I started having the problem where I keep getting a popup asking for a passowrk on Mac Mail on the iMac and cannot send outgoing emails. I can still send/receive with no issues via iPad and Webmail.
I have changed no settings, deleted the account and recreated it several times with no joy. The outgoing SMTP server shows offline. I'm fairly sure the settings are correct though.
I have logged in/out of webmail several times as well.
I can send email via my @icloud.com email address from my iMac without any problems.
Anyone able to help?
Regards
Gazza

Password change does not work.
I have just encountered this issue too. Was working fine until the weekend then nothing, just fails on port 993 time out.
Interestingly if I disconnect from my Infinity connection and plug in to my Virgin Media connection the problem disappears.
I am desperately trying to find a fix for this as its a pain in the...

Why did my outgoing email suddenly stop working on all devices?

While sending an email: On my Powerbook, message contained "connection to the outgoing server failed.
While sending an email from I Pad: MobilMe account expired.
On the I Phone: Just said failed
Does having a .mac extension on my address have anything to do with it.

Did you migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud before 1 August? If you did then you can set up an iCloud account using it. Your signature says you have 10.4.11 - is this correct? Lion 10.7.2 minimum is required for full use of iCloud but you can set Mail up manually on Tiger to access your iCloud email on a migrated MobileMe account:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger
If you did not migrate the account it has been closed, and all the contents deleted, including everything on the iDisk and any emails you had stored there.
If you only have Tiger you cannot reactivate the address.
If you have Lion or an iOS5 device you can sign into System Preferences> or Settings>iCloud with the @me.com version of the address to reactivate that address; you cannot reactivate the @mac.com version by any method.

My outgoing email suddenly quit working. Settings are correct, but says server unable to send. Can receive fine. This happened on both Iphone

My outgoing email suddendly stopped working. Happened first on my IPhone, msgs were stuck in outbox. This self-corrected, and now my Mac Pro will not send email. It says server not able to send, but I can receive fine. No changes were made. Settings are correct. Any ideas what's wrong?

OK, I thought you'd like to know that I figured it out! Yea.
I reasoned since my iphone is now sending, I would check to see if the exact same settings in the advanced mail area were the same.
The port on my phone was 110, but in advanced mail area on the mac it was 995/SSL.
I clicked on that and it defaulted to 110.
But what is strange is the 110 port is supposed to be for incoming mail (which I was getting fine even tho it had the 995 port) and the smtp outgoing I thought was a defaulted 25 port.
Anyway, when I changed the mac to the 110 port in advanced area, the mail in outbox was immediately sent.
I have absolutely no idea how the port server was changed to 995 SSL on the mac, since no one but myself uses this computer and I certainly didn't change it. Also, it doesn't at all explain the iphone doing the exact same thing a week ago, even tho that port said 110 when I checked. Very strange indeed, but thanks for the help anyone who is reading this and I hope this helps anyone else having a similar problem....

HT4864 My outgoing email as stopped working when using Outlook for mac 2011. Any suggestions?

My outgoing email as stopped working when using Outlook for mac 2011. I have deleted and reinstalled the account twice. I have 11 gig free on my iCloud account. The outgoing server is set at smtp.mail.me.com using port 587. If I was able to reinstall the account, I am positive I have the correct password. I can log into my iCloud accout using the same credentials.
Any suggestions?

I called Microsoft to fix my problem...for those maybe having the same issue, I was told by the Tech to use this outgoing server setting - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
All is working fine since doing so.

HT1338 Outgoing mail suddenly stopped working:-(

My outgoing mail suddenly stopped working - need help to reconfigure.
Thanks

I had that issue once too. I turned off my Internet sources (AirPort, ethernet connection) and then opened Mail. Mail actually opened that time. I went to my accounts, deleted them, closed Mail. I then turned on my Internet connection and reopened Mail, reimported my accounts, and everything has been fine since.
Just a note: I was using IMAP, so everything I wanted on my Mail was on the server, so by deleting my accounts nothing changed. If you're using POP(3), you may experience different issues. By turning off your Internet connections, you can at least determine if Mail is having issues connecting to a server or if the bug is something else.
Good luck - I'm sure others will have several different suggestions here.

Why has .mac email suddenly stopped working on my PowerPC G5?

It's worked fine for a couple of years and now it asks for my password, which it will not acknowledge. I checked my .mac account settings, etc and all seems fine. The .mac account runs fine on my phone and thru iCloud. But now not on my desktop.
They're killing off MobileMe and I noticed that my desktop won't sync anymore with that either. Related? It appears that you will need OSX Lion to function fully with iCloud. Let's see, I'm only 13 OSX upgrades behind........

Please help!
My email has stopped working on my HTC evo.
It's done this before and i went to settings and followed these instructions then it worked great for a few months but now I can not receive email. I can send but incoming does not work.
the WARNING says your incoming server does not support SSL
this is what i followed last time, but it doesnt work now
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
▪ Server name: imap.mail.me.com
▪ SSL Required: Yes
▪ Port: 993
▪ Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
▪ Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:

Exchange email suddenly stops working - password incorrect message

For the couple of months that I've had my iPhone, I have had email/contacts/calendar working fine through syncing with an Exchange server. Now it's suddenly stopped working, coming up with a 'password' incorrect message no matter how many times I input the correct password. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the email account, but the same problem arises. The username and server details are all exactly the same as those with which I initially set up the account.
One thing I have noticed is that when going back into the Account Info page on the iPhone, the password entry indicates 8 characters even though my exchange password has 10 characters, which I'm fully inputting each time.
I know that many people have experienced problems getting the Exchange up and running; I'm confused, though, that having had it working fine it should suddenly 'drop' the password for no apparent reason. Any advice would be appreciated!

This problem seems to have resolved itself - the fault was with the Exchange Server, apparently.

Flash builder applications suddenly stop working this month

Hi,
My flash builder applications currently stop working in my server, they have been running fine for over 6 months and today it's been a week and they still without running and I can't figure it out.
Any ideas?? Is some adobe server down?? Any restrictions with student license?
Thanks

Ask in the FB forum and provide more details. You have not offered any hard ttechnical info, so this is not going anywhere.

Anyone else find Google Apps or Gmail stopped working this week?

I'm using Google Apps for push email on my iPhone, and it's been working just fine...until this week. Not only does it no longer push, but even when I manually refresh/check mail within the iPhone's Mail client, it doesn't work. Meaning it doesn't update the emails AT ALL. I can verify this by logging in through Safari, and seeing that I have all kinds of emails in my inbox that aren't showing on the iPhone. I can read and work with them fine, archive them into folders/labels, and so on. Going back to the iPhone and refreshing, again the list is the same...hours old even.
This has been going on for three or four days now. Rebooting the iPhone doesn't help. Turning off push and switching to 15 minute interval checks doesn't work. The only thing I can do to get the iPhone to fetch mail correctly is to delete the Google account entirely from the phone, and then set it up all over again. That works for a few minutes, and then iPhone is once again no longer able to received pushed emails or even to fetch a correct set of current emails.
Anyone else having this problem??
Dan

I suppose Google Apps chokes on nested labels/folders. Once I removed all the nests and made a single-level hierarchy, the problem went away consistently and permanently.

Macbook internet suddenly stopped working a week ago?

My Macbook's internet has been working absolutely fine (sometimes it disconnects after sleeping, but reconnects quickly) for the past month. Recently, about 2 weeks ago the internet stopped working. My Macbook can definitely see wireless networks, and when I type in the network key it says I'm connected for a bit, with the wireless logo on the top right of the screen with all 4 bars full, but I just don't have any internet. Skype, Safari etc won't work, because clearly no internet is coming in... I have no idea what is wrong!? My internet is definitely working (I have a netgear wireless router) because it works on my desktop. I think the internet stopped working on my mac around the time when someone tweaked the settings on my router. But surely my macbook will automatically update these when I connect to my network? Please help!?

Is your desktop a windows machine? What happens if you turn it off? I had trouble today with my apple products connecting to the internet through my wireless router, but when I turned off my windows laptop, and rebooted all routers & apple products, they work flawlessly now. I haven't turned the windows laptop back on again for fear it will "break" everything again. I'm wondering if I'm the only one, or if it's a windows thing.

My youtube videos stopped working this week. Nothing else has changed. I am using the lastest software on my iphone 5s

My Youtube videos stopped working on my iphone 5s. I have the latest updates on the phone and deleted and reinstalled the Youtube app. Didn't work.

I had major issues using VPN passthrough with PPTP on the RV180W through a PPPoE internet connection. In the end I gave up - I think there are some PPTP servers that the RV180 just has trouble with. I had no problems with 3 other routers straight out the box. Unfortunately I lost access to the VPN server before Cisco could fix.
See thread:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2174283?tstart=0
Its interesting that it used to work and now doesn't - maybe Verizon or the VPN server have had configuration changes? Or maybe your antivirus has created a different profile for the different router - would be worth temporarily disabling any firewal/antivirus?
It would be good to try a different non-Verizon router if you can get your hands on one to see if Verizon network changes now require special features/settings on the router.

Comcast email suddenly stops working

I have had two comcast email accounts on my iPhone 4 S for a year or more. Suddenly last week I could not send email from one of the accounts. It said the username or password was incorrect. This dispite that fact that the phone still recieved email on that account. After reading some posts here, I deleted the account on the phone, shut the phone down, turned it on again and attempted to add the account back in. Unfortunately, it never was able to verify the account, so now I have lost the ability to recieve emails as well. In the mean time, this same account works from my computer and the other comcast email continues on with no problems on all devices. How do I fix this?

Hi mekus,
Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
In this kind of cases the first step would be to remove the existing mailboxes and set them up again. Alternatively you could reset your phone settings, which will also remove all mailboxes in the same go. Dial *#7780# followed by your security code (the default security code is 12345, unless you have changed it) to reset your phone settings, no other data lost.
Also, access the Gmail account on your computer to see if it requires you to fill a captcha or any other security test.
Let us know if this helps!

Email suddenly stops working on iOS devices

I have been using email on my iPad 2 and iPhone 5 for over a year.
Two days ago, it stopped receiving email.
The error message I get is
"Cannot get mail. Password or username is incorrect."
Except that the email on my MacBook Pro works fine using Thunderbird, and I have no trouble accessing the web based email using a PC.
In fact, I was even able to send myself a test email from the iPad to my gmail account.
Any ideas, suggestions. I re-booted each device twice to no effect,
Thanks,
Steve

E61...emails suddenly stopped working / connecting...

Hi. Maybe somebody has experienced this too and knows what to do. Would appreciate any advice/help. My E61 was setup to collect my Hotmail email, I did this via the Nokia site etc. with the advanced settings being sent as an sms etc.etc. It was all going so well. Then about a week or so later I tried to connect to my inbox and it prompted me to type my username...which was already highlighted there on the screen so I pressed ok, then it asked for my password, which again I could see on the screen as a string of stars. So I pressed ok and it said "Save to mailbox settings?" or something along those lines and I had to press ok to continue as cancel would end the attempt to connect. NOw this all seems a bit odd. It had never asked me this before. Next it proceeded to try and connect to my inbox and said "failed to connect...check connection settings". which I did and nothing had changed. In an attempt to figure this out, I deleted the mailbox and went to the Nokia site to "re-order" the advanced settings. They were sent as expected and I saved them etc. but the same message comes up when trying to connect and hence I'm unable to use the service at the moment, which I'm paying vodafone for! also, I noticed that the settings i have been sent are different from those I originally was sent. For e.g. the mailbox now gets called "Vodafone Uk" instead of "Hotmail Email" which I definitely select in the drop down menu when prompted on the Nokia website. also the address for incoming server is totally different from the one I had originally, I seem to remember. Having rung vodafone they can't understand anything about it and report no fault there end. Is there a fault - do I need to reset the phone!!? Hope someone can help!! best wishes. ron.

May be due to the problem reported earlier this afternoon.

Exchange email suddenly stopped working unless on the same wifi as the server.

I am the IT person at a small Construction company. We are running SBS 2008 with Exchange 2007. I have 6 Verizon iPhone 5's that the employees use. Up until the last two weeks everthing has been running fine, then everyone started getting "Cannot Get Mail, The connection to the server failed." But as soon as they are back at the office on WIFI the mail syncs just fine. No changes were made to the server or router in the last 3 months. Any and all help is greatly appreicated.

Sounds like a problem with your firewall. Have you confirmed that the settings are still correct? Have you tried rebooting it?
Try testing it from outside your network using this tool: https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/
If it fails the test, but you're positive the firewall settings are correct, contact your ISP.
