Unable to send, but can receive email

Having Outlook Express problem.Can receive mail, but not send. Server post settings are POP3 outgoing is 995., and SMTP sending setting is 25. I think that is wrong. What should it be?

These are the correct settings for using email clients like OE with Comcast email-------------------
http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/email-client-programs-with-xfinity-email/
Comcast no longer supports the use of port 25.

Earthlink email - Unable to send but can receive

Has anyone figured out how to get mail to send from the New Pre? I have done everything humanly possible including countless hours on the phone with Palm, Earthlink, and Sprint to no avail. I'm able to receive messages but still unable to send. Please help me.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Have you tried the following earthlink setting for the outgoing server?
smtpauth.earthlink.net, use authentication.
If that doesn't work, use the sprint outgoing server,
smtp.sprintpcs.com, use authentication and no ssl.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

Cant send, but can receive email

Every since I downloaded update, I can not send email from my bizpop account using my contacts list. I get the error message that the email address is invalid. If I hand enter the email address I get the same error.
Sending email from my pop3 account using my contacts list I ge the same error, but if I hand enter an email account it sends. Any way to uninstall "the fix"?

Being bizpop you must have created it by hand so I would check your outgoing server is entered correctly -settings, mail contacts and calendar, [your id]@bizpop.com (or whatever), SMTP and check all the servers are entered correctly. If still no luck I would delete the account before backing up and restoring from the backup but you may still need to do this without restoring from backup and selecting new iPhone when it asks if it is hopeless; after restore create the account again.

Using osx 10.7.5 can send but not receive emails. Mail server support rep tried everything

Using iMac with OSX 10.7.5. Can send but not receive emails. No problem with internet account. Server rep tried everything and suggested perhaps a corrupted file in the op syst. Any ideas?

You may have a corrupt preference. Mail - Preferences - Accounts - click the offending account and re-enter all prefereneces. Also you can use Apple's OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages located at:

I can send but not receive email

Hello All. I know this is a highly posted topic but I cannot find a solution. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Basic Problem- I can send but not receive email.
My ISP is. Yahoo SBC Global
I have a 3rd party email provider: 1and1.com
I have set my preferences according to the specifications of 1and1.com
The error I get is this: The server error encountered was: The attempt to read data from the server "pop.1and.com" failed.
I have a Macbook Pro, running 10.4.9. My account with the 3rd party email provider is new and only has 1 or two emails in the account. I know this because I can log on via the internet and use their website to check the emails in the inbox. So the "email" address is working. I just can't get it to forward to my laptop.
I'm wondering if it has something to do with port 110 being blocked by my ISP. But I really don't think they are blocking that port. Due to the fact that my previous computer was a dell, and I used a similar 3rd party provider to email, the account used port 110 and things worked fine.
Thanks to all.

Ok. I've got it working.
All I did was delete my account information from the preferences. Before, I was editing it.
I entered a completely new POP account and it started working. I have a hard time believing that I entered information incorrectly prior to this because I checked it, rechecked it had a friend check it and it all looked OK. I was copy and pasting information anyway.
However, once I deleted and re- entered a brand new account, it worked fine.
Ernie, thanks for replying to my emails! I appreciate it.

Can send but not receive email

I have contacted my ISP and confirmed my password and settings. I can log on and send but not receive. The emails are on the server. This problem started after I installed the latest apple security update. The isp tech felt everything was ok there and that the problem was due to the security update blocking incoming mail.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks, Dave!
I had the same problem. Could send but not receive, on three email accounts all of which were on the same server. The other four accounts on two different serves worked fine. This was a sudden change and I had not changed any mail prefs for several weeks or anything on the server end in months. I spent 3.5 hours on this this evening, excahnging emails with customer suppert at the server (using the other accounts of course), going through the complicated webstie to check the server configuration, checking the prefs in mail over and over and over, setting up the email on another computer to discover it worked, throwing everything realted to these three accounts out of keychain thinking maybe it had saved an old password.
Came in here to post a plea for help and read your message. The offline bits were set. And the list of accounts under the IN heading had been collapsed (I generally have it open, don't know how it was collapsed) so that I couldn't see the obvious offline indicator. !!!
Thanks again! Where were you 3.5 hours ago?

Icloud email send but not receive email

Sorry for my English but I am Italian.
from the site icloud.com going to mail I can send emails but not receive, what can I do to fix it?
I have not enabled forwarding messages to other e-mail

I have the same issue....it only affects my me.com email account that I setup to utilize iCloud. I can receive email OK but get an error when sending,,,,,"The connection to the outgoing server p07-smtp.mail.me.com failed."
I go to settings to check the smtp settings and it won't let me change them.
Any thoughts?

My outgoing email suddenly quit working. Settings are correct, but says server unable to send. Can receive fine. This happened on both Iphone

My outgoing email suddendly stopped working. Happened first on my IPhone, msgs were stuck in outbox. This self-corrected, and now my Mac Pro will not send email. It says server not able to send, but I can receive fine. No changes were made. Settings are correct. Any ideas what's wrong?

OK, I thought you'd like to know that I figured it out! Yea.
I reasoned since my iphone is now sending, I would check to see if the exact same settings in the advanced mail area were the same.
The port on my phone was 110, but in advanced mail area on the mac it was 995/SSL.
I clicked on that and it defaulted to 110.
But what is strange is the 110 port is supposed to be for incoming mail (which I was getting fine even tho it had the 995 port) and the smtp outgoing I thought was a defaulted 25 port.
Anyway, when I changed the mac to the 110 port in advanced area, the mail in outbox was immediately sent.
I have absolutely no idea how the port server was changed to 995 SSL on the mac, since no one but myself uses this computer and I certainly didn't change it. Also, it doesn't at all explain the iphone doing the exact same thing a week ago, even tho that port said 110 when I checked. Very strange indeed, but thanks for the help anyone who is reading this and I hope this helps anyone else having a similar problem....

I can send but not receive email using Mail and Comcast

My incoming mail [Mac Mail 3.6(936) ] slowed and now has stopped. I get error message "mail.comcast.net" on port 995 timed out. I can send. I can receive at Comcast.net. I have tried changing the port setting to 101 and no SSL and 587 (the comcast online set up guide), etc. and sometimes it works once then fails again. I have deleted the p-list in the Mail Library and restarted and still nothing.
I deleted the account and set it up again but still no luck. Oddly the Preferences says deleting the Accounts will delete everything but the Mailboxes are still there. Part of the problem?
I do not have this issue using Thunderbird which is a program I do not like.
I used Comcast's various online guides, a long useless chat and useless email to no avail. My Primary Account Holder email (which I never use) works but not my every day email account.
MAC OS 10.5.8
MacBook Intel Core Duo
Mac Mail 3.6(936)

*Sorry didn't see how old this thread was* Jono1968 if this could help you......
Here is what I would try -
Run the disk permissions utility....see if a repair works....
On the mail menu, go to Window => Connection Doctor - do you see errors (red dot) If so, what does it say the error is caused by?

Office 2008: Entourage can send but not receive email

Purchased Macbook Air and wirelessly loaded Office 2004 from my other Macbook Pro. One week later, I updated to Office 2008 for Mac. Two months later, Entourage became corrupted: can only Send email, but not receive any; Calendar and other functions continue to sync with no problem. Also, email sent to Trash doesn't empty. Original disc unavailable at present; potential conflict with Office 2004?

Glennbradley,
It's possible that some data in the Microsoft User Data folder (located in your documents folder) has gotten a bit "wonky."
My understanding of the '08 installer is that it purposely runs a script at the conclusion of the installation to removal '04 if it was found on your system. Was that not the case? Do you still have a working '04 set of applications?
Also, the fact that it did work (and doesn't now) tells me that somehow your profile or the Entourage database has become corrupted or unstable for various reasons. Have you followed the support documentation on repairing your Entourage profile? What sort of success/failure has that generated?

Outlook13 with 8.1 will not send but will receive email

I can receive messages but get an error when trying to send email... I have a private domain email (not gmail, yahoo, etc.).. server is network solutions....
they wanted me to pay for tech support , so did microsoft... there has to be an easy fix... My old xp computer with outlook works fine with the same settings...

Hi,
In order to resolve the issue more efficiently, I'd like to collecting the following information:
What error message did you get when sending email?
Do you have a webpage interface? Can you send email from there?
When did this issue happen? Does your email account ever work when configured in Outlook 2013?
How did you set your email account in Outlook? Via POP3, IMAP or others? You should contact your provider and make sure you have enter correctly in the "Outgoing server (SMTP)" field.
Regards,
Steve Fan

I want to send but not receive email

I'm a heavily invest gmail user and have all of my accounts set up in gmail. When I installed TBird I set it up with my gmail account because everything is already in that account, but the problem is that I cannot send as my other email addresses this way.
I don't actually ever use my gmail address to send from I simply use it as an email manager. I've used TBird in the past but this was before I started using gmail as my email manager and at that time set them all up like normal. I want to know if I can set them up in TBird so that it will not pull those emails from the server because they are already being pulled into gmail and then delivered to TBird via gmail and if I can simply just use them to send from when I do need to use TBird?
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Rhonda

Let's get this straight. Somehow you get all your accounts to forward to the gmail account. In Thunderbird you receive all your messages in the gmail account, so don't want to set it up to access the accounts directly?
(Why forward them all to gmail?)
Have you registered these accounts with your gmail account? This will allow you to send "on behalf of" using the gmail smtp servers. I think the final bit would be to set up your other accounts as additional identities in Thunderbird under the gmail account, then you can use them as "from:" addresses.
I fail to see what advantage you obtain from all this forwarding to gmail. I run several accounts myself, and use one gmail IMAP-connected account to file stuff that will be useful to me and is thus available to any of my computers. But I can do this by simple manual moving or filter-based moving in Thunderbird.
I have one account that I operate a bit like yours, because its servers use traditional imap/143 and smtp/25 ports, which are blocked by the server/firewall at my place of work. By forwarding incoming messages to another (gmx) account that uses imap/993 and smtp/465 I can make use of this account at my place of work.

Unable to send mail, can receive mail

I'm working on my mother's computer. It's sent mail just fine. All of a sudden it can't send any mail, receives mail just fine. I've been reading previous posts. I tried entering port 587 in the server port. I changed use authentication to password, checked user name, and password. We get an error message that mail is unable to send and will remain in the outbox. This time after we changed to the port 587when we tried to send a message: we got a message to re enter our password. It never asked that before.
We plan on checking with verizon tomorrow to see if they can help from their end. I hate being caught in these loops, my guess is they'll say it's the computer. Can anyone help us?? What else can we do? We have 6 messages sitting in the outbox unable to send any.

Unless Verizon's SMTP server requires and supports authentication, changing the authentication from None to Password will have no effect.
Try deleting and re-creating Verizon's SMTP server and if there are any SMTP servers available to choose from not being actively used by any account, delete those.
