TS3276 Receive but can not send email

I cannot send email. I used the connection doctor and it shows a green dot for my esp but send button is still dimmed. In the Accounts section Outgoing Mail Server it says "off line" but I still can receive emails.

Yesterday outgoing mail couldn't recognise my outgoing mail server so wouldn't send. I deleted the outgoing mail sever for the account (having first written down what it was (smtp.talktalk.net in this case), and made a new one with the same server, so basically just duplicated it. This allowed me to send mail.
This morning the send button was greyed out, and when I went to the outgoing server settings it said 'None'. Selecting the new version of the outgoing server I typed in last night, quitting and restarting Mail has my send button back.
I know these aren't quite the symptonms you have, but it may give you a clue since no-one else has more specific instructions.

  • Receive but can't send emails using Outlook Expres...

    Is anyone else experiencing this again ?
    OE leaves my mail in the Outbox and BT Mail will not accept them on a send/receive. Also still experiencing password rejection problems everytime I send/receive. If I cancel instead of trying again. It receives my mail but will not send it.
    Any ideas please ?
    Thanks.............. 
    Spoiler (Highlight to read)

    I suspect you will all ready have done this because you were previously sending emails but it might be worth doing it again in case there has been a glitch in the system.
    Verify the non BT email address. See this link.

    I think you also need to ensure that you have ticked the box “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" - and you need to use "Log on using" and enter the BTinternet email address/password  you've used to verify the Non BT email address.

  • Receive but can't send email

    I have set up my Iphone 5 email exactly the same as my iPhone 4. Emails are received but outgoing email is left in Outbox. It states the sender address was rejected by the server. How can this be when it works on the iPhone 4?

  • For all who receive but can not send e-mail:

    I just found Apple's: Apple - Support - Mail Setup Assistant link:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/
    followed it and problem solved. Apple is simply the best!

    Thanks SO much for stepping up to help. Mail Connection Doctor says:
    red dot status:
    Account Name: smtp.att.yahoo.com
    Details: Could not connect to this SMTP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account prereferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, uncheck the "Use SSL" checkbox in the Advanced tab of Account preferences.
    I am able to receive and send mail when I use my Safari Browser to go directly to ATT.net and login to Yahoo. Since I can receive mail using Apple's MAIL program, that tells me the settings for Outgoing Ports must be bad. I changed the Outgoing Port to 587 and checked the box indicating SSL. I tried to send a message and got the following:
    Unable to verify SSL server smtp.att.yahoo.com
    Mail was unable to verify the identity of this server, which has a certificate issued to "smtp.att.yahoo.com". The error was:
    There is no root certificate for this server.
    You might be connecting to a computer that is pretending to be "smtp.att.yahoo.com", and putting your confidential information at risk. Would you like to continue anyway?
        Any suggestion to get around the above?
    Thanks in advance for helping as Yahoo's tech in India is NO help.

  • Recieve emails but can not send. email rejected by server

    I am able to recieve emails on iphone 4s but cannot send.  POP outgoing server settings all same as on PC. Error message is "the recipient,XXXX was rejected by the server".  email account is hosted by GoDaddy.com

    Hi, Lawernce.
         Your issue with the iPhone's Mail Application might be due to two factors - 1. The otugoing server information might be incorrect. 2. The outgoing server credidentials might be incorrect. To change these, tap settings from the home screen, tap the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars button, tap the account you want to change, and contact Go Daddy for the correct server credidentials.

  • TS3899 I can receive email but I can not send email how can I fix this?

    I can not send email but I can receive email.  I deleted my email account and set it up again. This did not fix my problem. Please help!!

    It sounds like we need to change your outgoing mail server. I can help but I have a few questions first.
    Is your iPad wifi or wifi and cellular?
    What email address or addresses are you using on the iPad?

  • HT201320 I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account?

    I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account on her iPhone? I tried to just copy the info from her old iPhone.

    The sending of email is accomplished via the SMTP server. Take a moment to get back into Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars and select the account. Go to the SMTP server and check to make sure that username and password are entered in all of the appropriate places. If you cannot get it to work after trying to just change those settings, remove the account from the phone and recreate it. When recreating, make sure you enter the username and password in every location, even if the phone says optional. Make sure you have the settings from either the email provider or from the other device. Make sure that SSL is on or off as necessary.
