TS1307 outgoing mail server (SMTP): offline?

I am able to recieve email but can send, getting message "username or password for [email protected] is incorrect.....went to mail and it's telling
me that 'outgong mail server (SMTP):   offline.....how do I get it "on-line".....

Don't delete te old account yet.
I think they're slowing nudging people to the fact that MobilMe & .mac is going away shortly in favor of iCloudinees!
MobileMe & dot Mac will still work last I heard.
iCloud Mail setup, even in 10.4/10.5…
Don't delete your old account yet. Just setup a new one in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, little plus icon. Choose IMAP as account type, not ,mac or MobileMe.
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)

  • Why has mail suddenly started saying that my outgoing mail server is offline?

    Why has mail suddenly started saying that my outgoing mail server is offline?
    I can receive mail from my ISP using Apple Mail but as of this morning I can't send via my ISP.
    When I check Mail preferences, they say that my ISP's outgoing mail server is "offline".
    I haven't changed any settings, so  what's gone wrong? I need a fix. At the moment I'm having to use Gmail.

    If your email is hosted by Google then there are several known issues with Apple Mail under Mavericks accessing Gmail.  Using a web browser is a good backup.  In Apple Mail you can goto the menubar, choose Mailbox and choose take all accounts offline.  Then bring them back online.  Worst case you may need to delete and readd the account (usually if something was setup wrong) Menu bar - Mail > Accounts.
    If you have turned on 2 step Google Authentication then you'll need to issue a specific email password for Apple Mail to use to bypass authentication.  Google the steps.
    Best of luck in getting your mail server online.  Hopefully you can specify multiple servers in settings.

  • Mail: "outgoing mail server (smtp)" not being saved

    In Mail settings I have a default "outgoing mail server (smtp)" selected, but when I go to send mail, it changes to 'gmail'
    How can I get it to work the way it's supposed to.
    It's worked correctly for ever, but exhibited this new behavior recently.

    I think I have the same problem without Exchange involved. I have seven different email accounts and two of them are acting like you describe: changes like deleting doesn't reflect on other clients (like mobile phone email client and webmail).
    This also happens with read emails showing up unread so that if the email is been read and deleted same message can appear as new and when that message is deleted I can see two separate items of that same email message.
    Also all marks of reply, forward or flagged are gone when the email show up as new again.
    My service provider said that updates to Mail.app have previously made some big changes to way how it acts with email servers and thought that Mail is misbehaving with my two email systems.
    I am using IMAP protocol with all accounts.
    Thanks for any info and help!

  • Problems sending mail: some problem with the outgoing mail server SMTP?

    I can't send e mails: some problem with the outgoing mail server SMTP?

    I had this same problem with both my imac and mac book pro using hotmail via mac mail with bt as my internet provider. Suddenly 4 months ago out of nowhere i could receive emails but could not send them. I scoured all the threads followed all the fixes none of them worked. However I just phoned apple support and fixed it in a matter of minutes. I am SO happy. This is what the technician advised me:
    Go to your apple icon and scroll down to system preferences. Then dependant on what machine you have it is different for my imac and mac book pro click on either air port/wifi then the advanced tab in the bottom right hand corner. Then click on the DNS tab. Hit the + sign on the left hand side and type in 8.8.8.8 then hit the + sign again on the left hand side it will create a new line underneathe and type 8.8.4.4 then hit okay on the bottom right and then hit apply, again on the bottom right. Then send a test email to check but it should be fixed.
    Had to share this. Its been driving me mad for months.

  • TS4002 How do you re-establish the outgoing mail server (SMTP)?

    I am trying to re-establish my outgoing mail server (smtp).  I can receive mail, but can't send any out.  I have tried all the listed options in the pull-down, but just can't make any of it work.
    Bob

    If you are setting this up on your Mac using Snow Leopard, see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5330.  The outgoing mail server is smtp.me.com.

  • TS1307 my "outgoing Mail server is offline and I can't get it back online

    I can send  and receive emails from my iphone, ipad and online mac account, but can not send emails on my mail from my macbook, it stopped working suddenly a few weeks ago and says all my outgoing smtp's are offline, how do i get them back online?

    Thanks so much for the quick response.
    I did repair permissions and tried Mail again, then decided to double check the Mail Prefs of my MB Pro (where Mail works fine) and the iMac (G5 I think?).  And do I feel stupid:  the outgoing mail server on the iMac was smtp.mac.com whereas the server on the MB Pro was smtp.me.com!  So I changed that and now Mail can be sent from the iMac.
    Thanks so much, I love these forums.  Whenever I have a problem, I check the forums first!
    Cheers,
    Laurie

  • TS4002 Outgoing mail server is offline

    Two out of three icloud accounts show the outgoing server offline.  Any suggestions?

    Same here: I keep on getting the same message from Apple Mail, only for 1 of the 3 accounts set. The only way to send emails from that account is by using the web interface.
    This is the error I get:
    Connections to the server “p06-smtp.mail.me.com” on the default ports timed out.
    Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.

  • Outgoing Mail Server(SMTP)

    Does anyone know what the host name for the outgoing mail server is suppose to be, right now I have it listed as smtp1.attglobal.net, but it's saying cannot send out mail the connection to the outgoing server smtp1.attglobal.net failed. Can anyone give me the correct outgoing server.
    Jeff

    Try this first:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/mailhelper/
    The Outgoing mail server depends on who your email provider is. You can usually get information on the provider's web site for settings, or check the settings on your computer; they will generally be the same. HOWEVER, if your ISP is your email provider they may not allow use of their outgoing mail server unless you are connected to their network. In this case you would be able to send mail connected to your home wireless network, but no from other wireless networks or using EDGE on the phone.
    If this is your situation you have several options:
    1. For EDGE use only, use cwmx.com as the outgoing mail server, no user id or password. This will not work when connected via a WiFi network.
    2. Create a gmail account and use their server; this requires user id and password.
    3. Us a paid SMTP site (e.g., godaddy.com)

  • I am receiving emails perfectly but I cannot send them. I have checked my account preferences and it says that my outgoing mail server is offline?

    It is a gmail account through the University of Notre Dame if this has anything to do with the problem!

    Go to mail preferences.
    Select the mail account that doesn't work...
    Now check with comcast for the correct setting of incoming and outgoing mail server for comcast.net quick internet search will let you what they are
    now port problem can also be found doing a quick search, depends if comcast requires SSL encyription yes or no and which port to use. when you change the settings to the right once your mail will work again.

  • Gmail Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) is Offline

    Starting yesterday the gmail SMTP server is offline.
    I tried deleting and readding the accounts but to no avail.
    Any advice?
    Thanks so much.

    RESOLVED - I don't know how to delete this post, but suffice it to say, I quit mail, opened it and suddenly gmail became an option from the dropdown menu.
    Thank you, Lord!
