Send Mail Servers

Is there a way of cleaning out the 'send mail' servers listed when a sent mail message cannot use the selected send mail server? I seem to have collected quite a few over the years, and I want to clear them out.
Any ideas?
Chris

Chris,
Please report the version of OSX and Mail you are using, With Tiger and Mail 2.x, at least, this can be done in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Outgoing Mail Server by clicking on the up/down arrows beside the server name, and choosing Edit below the list of available SMTP servers.

All Send mail servers show offline...POP & IMAP

So all my outgoing mail servers are showing offline...this includes .Mac, an IMAP company email and POP company email....has been like this for a couple days.
I get mail okay, all other internet functions seem fine...
Using a Airport Extreme router...might that be blocking it?
Have tried a few different ports recommended on other discussions, but no luck so far...
HELP

Two things that might help...(mine is working now)..
1) If you are using little snitch uninstall it.
2) I ended up removing all my preferences. First go to User>Library>Mail and copy that to your desktop to back up your mail. Then copy all your prefs from user>Library>Preferences to a backup folder. Then delete them. Restart you computer. All your doc settings, etc will be gone but that might fix the issue. Then you can either start fresh or copy the prefs back one by one until you figure out the issue.
3) If you want to reimport your mail (if you have saved mail on your comp) go to mail>file>import mailboxes and reimport your mail folder from your desktop.

Can't send mail using - all send mail servers offline

I am not able to send any mail. I've got many SMTP servers and have tried them all. none send and I don't get an error. Have rebooted and read in discussions and find no solution. OS X 10.9.2 Finding myself concerned that Apple's QA/QC is lacking.. not what it once one. Seeing increasing instability in general in core OS X apps.

Mail is a bit weird sometimes...
Does your network/ISP allow SMTP traffic?
Have you linked each SMTP server to the correct mail account?
Have you selected "Use only this server" ?
Have you checked the port number being used?
What are the mail providers are you using?

You need to get the settings for your email from your email provider and enter them in Internet Accounts (System Preferences). Many of the common systems are already available, all you need is a password and an email address to set them up.

1. Insert the Installation disk into the computer.
2. The disk will appear on the desktop.
3. Double click on the "Optional Installs" folder.
4. Double click on the "Optional Installs.mpkg."
5. Click on (Continue) in Introduction.
6. Click on (Continue) in Software License Agreement.
7. Click on (Agree) to agree to the terms of the software license agreement.

IPad will not send mail, but iPhone works. Outgoing servers are set up the same. I tried shutting off iPhone to not confuse the wireless network. Still doesn't work.

Can't send mail from iPad but IPhone is sending. Outgoing servers are set up exactly the same. I closed both safari and mail on the iPhone to try and avoid conflicts with iPad. I also shut down and restarted iPad. Still won't send.

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Sending to multiple mail servers

Hello,
Can Ironport be configured to send email to multiple mail servers? I don't mean load balancing or failover. What I want is for the Ironport to send the same inbound email to two separate mail servers.
Regards,
Xavier

I think you need to use a message filter. Something like this:
bccMessageFilter:
if ((mail-from == '^xavier$') and (rcpt-to == '^lloyd$')) {
bcc('[email protected]', '[Bcc] $Subject', '$EnvelopeFrom', '[IP/hostname of alt mail server]');
Note: I haven't tested this.

Sending mail from servers with non-ASCII names

As part of an effort to internationalize our product we're testing on machines with host names that include non-ASCII characters (accented e's and whatnot). When trying to send mail from these machines we're getting:
javax.mail.MessagingException: 501 5.5.4 Invalid Address
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.issueCommand(SMTPTransport.java:1634)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.helo(SMTPTransport.java:1068)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.protocolConnect(SMTPTransport.java:458)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:291)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:172)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:121)
at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:190)
at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:120)
at msgsendsample.main(msgsendsample.java:86)
Looking at a network trace I see the EHLO command being sent as
EHLO test[0xe9][0xdf]\r\n
where the machine name is testéß. From a Unicode table 0xe9 0xdf = é ß.
I found a reference from RFC 5336 (SMTP Extension for Internationalized Email Addresses) that says the hostname in the EHLO must be in the form of ACE (ASCII-compatible encoding) labels:
3.7.1. The Initial SMTP Exchange
When an SMTP connection is opened, the server normally sends a
"greeting" response consisting of the 220 response code and some
information. The client then sends the EHLO command. Since the
client cannot know whether the server supports UTF8SMTP until after
it receives the response from EHLO, any domain names that appear in
this dialogue, or in responses to EHLO, MUST be in the hostname form,
i.e., internationalized ones MUST be in the form of ACE labels.
ACE encoding for my machine would be: java.net.IDN.toASCII("test4éß") --> "xn--testss-eva".
I'm not sure if this RFC applies in this case - I didn't know anything about the guts of SMTP until yesterday - but it makes sense that you'd need to escape the hostname in the EHLO until you can negotiate capabilities.
Looking at the JavaMail API it seems that if I were to call SMTPTransport.helo(String domain) myself without going through the higher-level Transport class that maybe I could work around the issue, but I haven't looked into it enough to know if that's feasible.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? I'm using JavaMail 1.4.2 on Windows 2003 and Exchange as my SMTP server.
thanks,
Eric

Same problem here (or at least in part). Some .mac folders did no longer show any messages, while they were there and could be seen online and with Thunderbird. After your remark I changed the name of a folder which contained a "´" and now it works. It is really strange because there is another folder with a "¨" in it which does not work (I will test if the name change works with this folder as well in a minute) whilst there is another one with such name which works fine. The update really messed up Mail and in Dutch we just use such characters so Mail without supporting them will be rather useless for me...

Sending mail from servers at work

I'm having trouble sending mail when I'm connected to the wireless network at work. I am very unfamiliar with networks and such so I haven't tried anything to remedy the problem. When I send an email, I get a message that says the server isn't available. I'm provided with a list of alternatives but I end up just selecting "Try Later". Any help with this is much appreciated.

Cannot send mail from any mail account

I have a Mac Mini, late 2014 model, running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I have constant difficulty sending mail from any of my mail accounts; these are iCloud, Googlemail, Yahoo and a personal one which uses 123-reg.co.uk. I am currently located in Greece, but have been having trouble for ages, even in the UK. I can receive mail, but I don't seem able to send it. Error message is usually simply cannot send mail using this server, select a different server. However, when connection doctor is run, all servers appear to be connected and I am logged in. Any ideas please?

Cannot send mail from outbox

I tried deleting the outbox from home/library/mail but no luck, internet works fine, mail recieves fine. from .mac website mail will send... but it won't send from my mail program. keep getting message "the connection to the server on"smpt.mac.com" on port 25 timed out." what else can I do?

Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
This indicates your ISP is blocking the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25.
Most, if not all ISPs have restrictions on the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only that is outside of their network (such as the .Mac SMTP server) but some block its use regardless. These restrictions are part of an overall effort to prevent or reduce spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
Try changing the Port used by the .Mac SMTP server from 25 to 587. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below. Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field. When finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
If this doesn't work, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.

CANNOT SEND MAIL FROM .MAC SMTP ACCOUNT

Hello everyone--
I can receive mail from my .mac account and have done extensive troubleshooting including:
1. Changing ports from 25 to 587
2. Deleting and re-installing mailbox
3. Reading a hosts of topics
4. I have the serving settings with SSL unchecked
...but this still giving me the same trouble. I cannot send out because my email address keeps getting rejected.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server in Mail that is provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
If so, can you send mail with this account and SMTP server?
If the answer is yes to both questions, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.
Most, if not all ISPs now block the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) that is outside of their network on Port 25 but some block its use regardless.
Changing the Port for the SMTP server that is outside of the ISP's network from 25 to 587 usually resolves it but sometimes not depending on the ISP's restriction.
Have you contacted your ISP regarding their restrictions and/or requirements when using an SMTP server that is outside of their network or not provided by them?
Using your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account should work and it may be required regardless.

Cannot send mail from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007

I have an
Exchange 2007server with all roles in the same server (Version:
08.03.0327.001 ) on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have now installed two Exchange 2013 servers both with CAS and MBX roles on Windows 2012 servers
(full patched). There is also a DAG between the new servers. All mail goes through a BorderWare besides the internal mail.
I can send mail from both environments to the Internet. I can also send internal mail from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.But the problem is that I am unable to send from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007. I've debugged, but not solved the problem and there are
few articles on the Internet.
Any suggestions?

These two sentences are in conflict : "I can also send
internal mail
from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. But
the problem is
that I am unable
to send from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. "
Can you describe what is your real problem? Flow from E2007->E2013? Or vice versa?
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you. Thank you! Damir

Cannot send mail from Iphone using Verizon e-mail

I just switched from Comcast to Verizon as my internet provider, and although I can receive my Verizon e-mail on my Iphone, I can not send e-mail. I get an error "can not send mail"
"The sender address was invalid". I have checked all the settings, and they are correct. I was able to send e-mail with the Comcast Iphone mail app, but I am unable to do so with Verizon. Can someone who is a Verizon customer and has an Iphone please shed some light on this issue?

Verizon, like most ISPs, does not allow off-network use of it's SMTP servers (you would be able to send email when connected to your home Wi-Fi network, for example). When using 3G, you can use AT&T's SMTP server - go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > tap the account > SMTP > AT&T SMTP Server and toggle it to ON.
