  • Trouble with outgoing mail server

    When I try to send gmail I get an error message 'your acc does not have a preferred outgoing mail server'? I've had this before but can't remember what to do.Thanks.

    Who is your ISP? Normally they provide you the information you need when you sign up with one, i.e. user name and password, email address, smtp server address, pop and imap server addresses, authentification requirements, etc.
    If you haven't got that information to hand it's normally available with a quick Google search.
    I'm with Orange and just searched 'Orange smtp server settings' - this is what I got:

  • Mail trouble with outgoing mail server

    For weeks now (relatively recent), MAC mail will not send consistantly. When I choose my outgoing mail server in the preferences panel and check "use only this server", Mail often will not send my message. If I leave that outgoing server as "none", my first outgoing message of the day will prompt me to choose one, and then subsequent messages are sent without asking. Inconvenient at the least - something's not right.
    Any help?

    Thanks for response.
    I have deleted ALL accounts (to start fresh) but the unused outgoing servers 'refuse' to leave
    I want to delete them to keep things tidy, also I have issues with using alternate outgoing server (next issue), so trying to start from the beginning again, before attempting to address next issue.

  • Trouble with outgoing mail server in outlook - asking password

    Since yesterday I have a problem with outlook 2010 and icloud mail. I did not change any settings, but since yesterday I can't send emails via outlook.
    A popup comes up and asks me to insert the write password, which is of course the write one.
    My settings:
    ingoing server: imap.mail.me.com     Port 993     SSL
    outgoing server: smtp.mail.me.com   Port 587     TLS
    outgoing server needs authentifikation -> same as ingoing server
    [email protected]
    iCloud password
    Anyone a solution or the same problem?

  • Problem with outgoing mail server since getting .mac account

    I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me out.
    I've been using Mail for a few years now with several mail accounts. (Yahoo!, gmail, and my own domain mail). I have always been able to choose which account to send my outgoing mail FROM. That is, until I purchased a .mac account.
    Since signing up for .mac all my settings are still there for my other accounts, but I have not been able to send even ONE email from any account except the .mac account.
    I have tried setting up the outgoing mail servers and resetting them, but nothing works. Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?
    I'm starting to consider using Yahoo! mail online for all my mail, but I would prefer to be able to click mailto links and sent right from Mail.
    Thanks.

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    Where and how are you connected to the internet with the laptop, vs the desk top -- same venue -- wireless, etc?
    Is the account you have set up, the same primary account with Charter that you use on the Desktop?
    On the desktop Mac, in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information, when listed as the Outgoing Server, does smtp.charter.net have any Username appended to the name?
    Not sure if it could be case sensitive, but have you tried lower case letters for smtp?
    More info, please.

  • I'm having trouble with Snow Leopard server disconnecting.

    I'm having trouble with Snow Leopard server disconnecting. Recently upgraded my laptops to latest MacBook Pro OSX Lion, but everything has been fine since December until now. I did just add a 2TB Drive to the set-up (OWC Mercury Elite AL-Pro) in a Daisy chain of 2 other 2TB drives and a 3TB Drive that had been working perfectly up until now. I was able to use it yesterday, but now it has gone haywire and I lose connections while working on files or saving files. Have to restart server and it works for a while, but then drops off. Could Server be corrupt?

  • Mail.app: Select outgoing (SMTP) server per message?

    Dear community members,
    I'm looking for a solution to the following problem:
    I do have multiple e-mail accounts which are configured in the following way: One of them is the master account (let's say [email protected]) added to Mail.app as a POP account. The other ones (let's call them [email protected] and [email protected]) are on different servers and are configured to forward all incoming mail to [email protected] They are, however, not added to Mail.app as additional accounts. That is because it's not necessary for receiving mail with these addresses, since all incoming mail is forwarded to [email protected], anyway, and therefore immediately available in Mail.app.
    The problem arises when sending e-mails within Mail.app. I can easily add all three addresses in the "Mail" > "Settings" > "Accounts" settings window by entering them in the e-mail-address-field separated by comma (e.g. "[email protected], [email protected], [email protected]“). This allows me to select the desired outgoing address on a per-message basis in the compose window.
    There is, however, a problem with this: This setting means that mail from all three addresses is being sent using the same SMTP server. This can cause problems for domains that do have SPF-records, for example. Therefore, I'd very much prefer to not only select the outgoing mail address on a per-message-basis, but also the SMTP-server I'd like to use. Since Mail.app allows me to add multiple SMTP servers in the account's settings window, I believe there has to be a way to select which one to use on a per-message-basis? Whenever there's a problem with an SMTP-server, a window opens up asking me which of the alternative SMTP servers I'd like to use, instead. This indicates that this function exists – it's just far from obvious for me where to find it in a normal usage scenario.
    Does anyone have an idea? Any hint is welcome!
    Thanks
    Nick

    That has nothing to do with it. I ended up working around the problem by changing the account name.
    But I still think this is a bug, so I won't mark the topic as answered (a workaround is not the solution).

  • Cannot edit outgoing SMTP server list in mail.app

    Did a fresh install of Snow Leopard on a new 13" Macbook Pro unibody and was trying to add an IMAP email account. After failing to connect, I was trying to specify the outgoing port and realized that I could not edit the outgoing SMTP server list.
    Steps to reproduce error:
    1. Open mail.app
    2. Go to Mail > Preferences
    3. Select "Accounts" tab and select any mail account
    4. Select "Account Information" tab and click Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) drop down menu
    5. Select "Edit SMTP Server List..."
    After that point the instead of opening the list of servers with their settings, it simply returns to the "Account Information" screen. I'm a bit confused because I've never had this happen before in any other version of mail app. I cannot edit or delete any outgoing mail server accounts because of this. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration.

    This should not happen. Had you migrated back to the fresh install the Mail folder in User-Library? Or is this a clean setup? I would go to User-Library-Preferences, and drag the com.apple.mail.plist to the trash, then open Mail and try again.

  • Is there a way to bypass having to use an outgoing SMTP server?

    Hi all,
    I'm always mailing from different places with my MacBook, and it's a drag that I have to figure out the outgoing SMTP server the whole time.
    You don't have to fill in outgoing SMTP servers if you're using Thunderbird or Entourage, but I prefer working with mail because of it's Address Book & iCal integration.
    Is there a way NOT to have to fill in a local SMTP server, without transferring to a paid .mac account etc?

    Sounds like you've got it solved, but just for future reference, Google Mail (Gmail) allows you to use their outgoing mail servers for any email anywhere. I've got a Mac email, so I use the MobileMe Mail Server for that.
    But I've also got another email that's non-Mac that I use for a vacation rental property. It uses a domain I bought. Then all I did was create a Gmail email account and then I can use Gmail's outgoing mail server (smtp.gmail.com) for this other email that's neither a Gmail or Mac account. You need to create a Gmail account to make this work cuz it uses authentication (Gmail email and password) to allow access to Gmail's outgoing mail server. But you don't need to use the Gmail email at all.
    Hopefully this isn't too confusing. The bottom line to all this is I can use Gmail's outgoing mail server for any email address I have from anywhere in the world. I never have to change it.

  • Can't connect so smtp-Server since Mavericks update.

    Hi there,
    I am not able to connect so my work smtp-Server since I have updated my system on MBP Late 2012. I also have an Mac Mini for Homeoffice.
    Exacly the same accounts are working at my Mac Mini with OS X 10.8.5 -but not with OS X 10.9-.
    What I tryed to fix:
    copied all certificates from Mac Mini and paste (replaced) the certificates in my MBP.
    I deleted my Mail-Folder (Library) at MBP and paste the Mail-Folder from Mac Mini.
    I deleted the File com.apple.mail.plist at MBP and paste this file from Mac Mini.
    Nothing of it works :-(.
    I also created a "Test"-User-Account in my OS and typed the maildatas into this Account.... still doesn't work.
    I deleted the System-Log and run a connection test in Mail App.
    This is the Log:

    OK, I was having the same problem and disabling SSL didn't work for me. Other solutions suggested in other forum threads also didn't work, but I've finally found a solution that works for me. Here it is in the hopes it will help other people:
    In summary, I realized that the root of the problem was, as mentioned in the original post above, that the SSL certificate wasn't being accepted (-9807 Invalid certificate chain). This was because the SMTP server's certificate was expired. I did not want to try to convince my provider to fix it - instead I wanted to fix it myself on my end.
    The solution was to import the SSL certificate to my keychain and flag it to "Always trust". However, getting the certificate was a bit tricky, as Mac Mail was not giving me the option. Here's how I did it:
    1. I downloaded and installed Thunderbird (Mozilla's mail client, Firefox's cousin) and configured my problem email address there.
    2. I tried sending an email from Thunderbird and then I got a pop-up saying that the certificate was not valid. On that pop-up, there is an option to view the certificate and then export it. So, I chose to export it to a .pem file (used option "with chain") to my desktop.
    3. I dragged the .pem file and dropped it on my keychain icon on the dock (double clicking on it should work too). Then Keychain Access popped up (it imports the certificate automatically) so then I flagged the certificate as "Always Trust" and saved it.
    After doing this, I was able to send SMTP email from Mac Mail.
    At this point, you can remove Thunderbird, but first see the note below.
    Note: Is this only works intermittently for you, it may be that you are being served by more than one SMTP server, so in that case  you would need to do this for every one of them (import every certificate and flag as "Always Trust".
    Hope this helps others.

  • TS3276 I cannot get my outgoing SMTP server togo "On-Line" and cannot send out emails.

    I cannot get my outgoing SMTP server togo "On-Line" and cannot send out emails.

    I had this problem too but I fixed it today.
    Go to the mail menu preferences.
    Click on account in question.
    Select the outgoing SMTP mail server (the one offline), this has a drop down list, click on the edit server list.
    Click on the advanced button.
    Make sure use default port is checked.
    Make sure SSL is unchecked (unless your provider requires it, mine does not work with it checked).
    Have authentication set to password.
    User name should be your email address for that account.
    Make sure correct password is entered (for some strange reason my password box was blank on this account).
    Push the ok button.
    For me the SSL box was checked and the password was missing. This is strange to me considering I have unchecked the SSL Box on the mail preference advance page. Also, I went through the complete set up account when I first created the account, why was my outgoing server password box empty?
    I hope this helps.

  • How does Mail decide which outgoing SMTP server to use?

    I have Mail setup with two accounts - one for home use and one for work.  Each has its own outgoing SMTP server.  My question: how does mail decide which outgoing server to use?  I don't want to mix work and home stuff.
    Specifically, what happens in these three scenarios?
    1) I compose a new mail.  Does it always use the first account's outgoing SMTP server or does Mail look at the recipient's domain and base its decision on that?
    2) I reply to a work email.  Is Mail smart enough to look at my domain or the sender's to know to use the work outgoing SMTP server?
    3) I reply to home email.  Is Mail smart enough to look at my domain or the sender's to know to use the home outgoing SMTP server?
    Any information is much appreciated.
    Tom

    Hi Juergen,
    Thanks for the suggestion - I had to "Customize" the viewable header to include the "From:" ("Von:") line to see who I was sending as.  As far as the "use this SMTP only" checkbox is concerned - they're checked on both my accounts - so I'm not sure how much of an impact that has.  To be honest, I thought this checkbox was meant to limit your outgoing mail (for that account) to this mail server only.  I thought that if it was not checked, Mail will try to send the mail via another SMTP server if the one for this account is not reachable.....after all, why else would Apple allow you to check both servers' "use this SMTP only" checkbox?
    But this is good enough for me - now I can see who i'ms ending as.
    Thanks,
    tom

  • Send email from OWB with authenticated SMTP server (AUTH_LOGIN)

    Hi all,
    I want to send email from Oracle Warehouse Builder 11.2.0.2 using a SMTP server with basic authentication (AUTH_LOGIN).
    I've created an ACL for OWBSYS user according to note ID 1229769.1 in support.oracle.com.
    But, I need to configure again the ACL to connect to the SMTP server using user and password.
    I read the article in metalink, *How to Send an Email Using SMTP over an SSL Connection [ID 1323140.1]*+
    but I don't know how can I configure again the ACL for use in OWB.
    How OWB is able to authenticate with the SMTP server?
    Thanks!
