The connection to the server on port 993 times out...

When I attempt to delete mail or move mail to my trash I receive the following error message:
"""The message could not be moved to the mailbox “Trash — iCloud”
the connection to the server :p01-map.mailme.com” on port 993 times out"""
I have never seen this before, anyway to correct it?

Regarding the iPhone (5 in my case) it works relatively well with charter.net IMAP and smtp functions at mobile.charter.well.  But does occassionally have sync problems as well.
To fix the problem with my MacBook Pro Mail app, the Apple senior tech could not determine the problem, so he told me to reinstall the app.  To do this I had to run the Archive and Install feature of the recovery disk (hold down cmd-r on reboot).  Of course this two two hours to complete, as well as run software updates.  And it did not fix the sync problem. 
So??? This one has me stymied!
Oh, one other input.  The email app "Thunderbird" works perfectly with charter.net IMAP and its smtp, syncs every time!

  • The server returned the error: The connection to the server on port 143 timed out.

    Hello,
    I recently got a MacBook Pro which cam ewith Mavericks. I have entered the email addresses I use the most, they are a combination of Gmail and personal ones that are set up with two different hosting companies. After a random amount of time which may be 5 minutes after opening Mail up to 8 or 9 hours the mailboxes start giving the error 'The server returned the error: The connection to the server xxxx.xxxx on port 143 timed out.' where xxxx.xxxx is the IMAP incoming mail server, the port is 993 for the Gmail accounts. Once it happens for one the others soon follow. The same accounts on my Mac Pro still work correctly at the same time. Anyone have any ideas?
    Edit: I have run the Connection Doctor and while it can connect to each of the SMTP servers it cannot connect to any of the IMAP ones.  A restart of Mail will cure this temporarily.

    Mobileme has moved to moved iCloud:

  • Port 993 time out server

    Im already sick and tired on this subject - called my ISP the ysay i need to talk to apple
    I called apple and all they tell me is to look at the email set up walk through as if I was a total idiot I told them I done that already, ok then delete your email acount (mac account) and set up again - I've done that already many times as well - theres no solution really here from apple and this has been going on for 3 weeks now -
    Why can't apple come up with A SOLUTION to this man - Iam using an apple email and still the crap doesn't work
    this is really frustrating
    AND STOP SENDING ME BACK TO THOSE STUPID TUTORIALS ON HOW TO SET UP AN EMAIL ACCOUNT OK THE THING IS THAT I NEVER MADE ANY CHANGES IN THE FIRST PLACE THE STUPID ERROR MESSAGES JUST SHOWED UP ON MY IMAC AND MACBOOK
    NOT A HAPPY APPLE CUSTOMER HERE !!!!

    Im using an Imac with email 4.5
    Could Mail 4.5 be the problem? For over a year I use a G-Mail account and always noticed that it takes ages to send mail from my iMac with Snow Leopard (uses Mail 4.5). On my MacBook with (Mountain) Lion and my Android tablet, the mail is send instantly.
    This week I started using my own mailserver in my private network. Mail 4.5 reads the IMAP structure perfectly but when transfering a file to it, I also get the timeout error for port 993. My two other computers that are running now under Marverics give no problem.
    So two accounts giving problems on the same computer, rules out a wrong mail setup.

  • Mail 5.1 port 993 time out

    Hi
    since 2 days ago , I face problems in my mail 5.1
    mail can't connect to prt 993 , $ get me time out error , I try to recreate my account & mail get me "The Google IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages."
    What should I do?

    gmail imap won't import new emails.
    i've tried port 143, and 993.
    checked ssl and not ssl.
    checked password and settings.
    went through connection doctor, and it's all green.
    gmail account imap settings are right.
    i am able to sent out a test email, which reaches my account on the gmail website. but it won't load on apple mail 4.2.
    running snow leopard 10.6.2
    sigh read through a few forums and all anyone can say is to reload the account.
    there must be an easier way.

  • The connection to the server on port 110 timed out.

    Hey - How do I download me e mails if this occurs? thank you !

    http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/three_email
    Have you tried contacting your ISP for support? Can you confirm that the email is suppose to be over Port 110 and not 143, or 995/993?

  • Can't sent mail. connection to server on port 25 timed out.

    Can't send mail. Connection to the server on port 25 timed out. I keep getting this error when sending mail. I can receive mail but just can't send.
    When I connect directly to the cable modem, thus removing the Airport from the set up, the mail sends fine. I recently updated the Airport with firmware update 5.7 and I'm wondering if there are some settings on the airport that may be affecting this? Any ideas on what I'm missing? I'm baffled.
    I am using a 17" Powerbook running OS 10.3.9 and connecting wirelessly to an Airport Extreme. I'm using Apple Mail as my email software, but I have also tried to send through Entourage with no luck. I am using an email account and SMTP server provided by my ISP. I also have an old iMac running 10.3.5 that is wired directly to the Airport. I have an email account set up on the iMac and can't send from there either.

    I tried changing the MTU on the iMac which is wired directly to the airport.(I have an old iMac running 10.3.5 and a Powerbook G4- the G4 connects wirelessly to the airport) I changed it to 1492 but didn't still wasn't able to send mail. I feel like I'm stabbing in the dark with this, is there a way to determine what the packet size should be?
    MTU will vary with connection type. Cable and non-PPPoE, can use up to 1500, whereas PPPoE connections (WinPoet, RASPPPOE, Enternet, etc.) can only use up to 1492. For secure VPN connections (i.e., IPSec) use a MTU value less than 1500.
    The best value for MTU is that value just before the packets get fragmented. To test, use the Ping utility.
    OS X: ping -D -s 1472 www.dslreports.com
    WinXP: ping -f -l 1472 www.dslreports.com
    Reduce 1472 by 10 until you no longer get the “packet needs to be fragmented” error message. Then increase by 1 until you are 1 less from getting the same error message. Add 28 more to this (since your ping packet size, not including IP/ICMP header is 28 bytes). This will be your MaxMTU. (Note: If you can ping thru at 1472, stop, you’re done! Add 28 and your MaxMTU is 1500.)
    Some typical MTU values:
    1500: The biggest sized IP packet that can normally traverse the Internet without getting fragmented. Typical MTU for non PPPoE, non VPN connections.
    1492: The MaxMTU recommended for Internet PPPoE implementations.
    1472: The maximum ping data payload before fragmentation errors are received on non-PPPoE, non-VPN connections.
    1464: The maximum ping data payload before fragmentation errors are received when using PPPoE connected machine.
    1460: TCP Data size (MSS) when MTU is 1500 and not using PPPoE.
    1452: TCP Data size (MSS) when MTU is 1492 and using PPPoE.
    1400: MaxMTU for PPTP Tunneling VPN (Win2K/WinXP).
    576: Typically recommended as the MTU for dialup type applications...leaving 536 bytes of TCP data.

    Hi
    I'm guessing that you are going trough a proxy, if so you need to set your proxy setting for playback:
    View -> OpenScript preferences -> Playback -> HTTP and enter the proxy settings.

  • I'm using Entourage 2008 v 12.3.5 and lost ability to SEND.  Tried many small email tests.  Server continues to leave time out message.  "An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic.

    I'm using Entourage 2008 v 12.3.5 and lost ability to SEND.  Tried many small email tests.  Server continues to leave time out message.  "An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic."  Comcast tells me server is not down all other network activity is fine.  WHat's up with this?

    Starting earlier today, this also became my problem - can receive but not send in Entourage. The account settings are correct in Entourage - I even created a new account.  My Mac running 10.7.5 won't read the original Office : MAC 2008 disk, so I can't do a fix or reinstall from the disk.
    This is not an issue if I log onto the Comcast site.
    And so, I started using Mail but, unlike Entourage, Mail won't import my Entourage info.
    Argh...  :-(

  • How to find out the server listen port

    Is it possible to programmatically find out what port numbers in the web server listening on for http as well as https requests? I know this information needs to be configured in the server's config. file. But is there a way to be able to get to it from a servlet (some java class running on the server for that matter) in a vendor independent manner?
    Any input/help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry I should have been clearer on this. I wanted to know if I can get that information from somewhere else (ServletCotext, ServletConfig, etc) other than the request. I have a need where I have to change the port number in case the scheme changes (http to https or vice versa) and I need to know what port number to change to. Hope this makes my question clear.
