Why can't I send mail through my mail app

Can't send mail from either gmail or yahoo.  can receive mail on both, however

You need to make sure the Out Going Mail Server information is correct in Mail>Preferences>Accounts. Contact your ISP for that info.

  • Why can't I send an email in Mail Version 7?

    With Mavericks 10.9.4 my Verizon account can receive email but I cannot send an email when using Mail v.7.3 (1878.6). The error messages always include: "Could not connect to this SMTP server" or mention a time-out. Are there any suggestions for me? Network Diagnostics show no problems. Thank you so much.

    An update: I adjusted my modem firewall settings and now Network Utility says Port 587 is open but Mail Connection Doctor says "Could not connect to this SMTP server..." My network connection is OK & Account Preferences have the correct info. Would you have any suggestions at this point? Thank you.

  • Why can't I send out messages on Mail?

    I'm able to receive mail but I can't send out any. I've tried troubleshooting, like checking if the outgoing server is correct and reviewed everything in my preferences.... everything looks normal from the info Yahoo provided me with. I've also tried the Connection Doctor and it said both incoming and outgoing serveres successfully connected with the internet. 
    What more can I do? This issue just suddenly came up out of nowhere.
    Also, I don't know if it has anything to do with it but when I tried sending out an email to a large group of people after attempting it on Mail unsuccessfully, Yahoo wouldn't let me for "suspicious activity" on my account. I don't know what's that about.
    Thanks,

    I am guessing you're asking about picture messages as mesages, not emails.
    Go to Settings > Messages and make sure "Send as SMS" is "On".  Also "MMS Messaging" must be "On".

  • Why can I not send email from my mail on my computer?

    I am receiving mail into my inbox, but cannot send out?  anyone have any ideas?

    FIXED!
    Had the same problem. AOL had been working for months, stopped working for no reason. I checked the settings against aol's instructions and the username was wrong - aol state that the username should not have the @aol.com suffix but it did. The next problem encountered was that the iPad would not let me change the username under outgoing smtp settings. Answer is to do the following:
    Go to settings -> mail ->aol account ->outgoing mail server.
    Turn the primary smtp server off.
    Create a new one for smtp.aol.com with the username without @aol.com at the end and your password.
    The rest of the settings should populate automatically.
    Good luck.

  • Why can't I send out company e-mail or delete items in my company inbox?

    I cannot send or delete email from my company e-mail site. I added my CRM into the pop up blocker but that didn't help.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

  • Why can't I send photos through Messages anymore?

    I just updated my software for the new iTunes and Safari this morning, but now I can't send photos on Messages. The recipient is someone I talk to everyday, he uses an iPhone, and I just successfully sent photos yesterday. Only after this update have I had any problems? I've tried completely closing the application and reopening it, I've tried different file types (JPEG, PNG, GIF) but no luck. I have a MacBook Pro 15" (2012), OS X Version 10.8.5.

    There should be a camera button that you press on.  It asks you if you want to use a picture already taken or to take one. Then you upload it on to the message and send.

  • HT3529 Why can't I send pictures through a text message?

    I have recently upgraded to an iPhone (first time iPhone user) and I am trying to send a picture that I recently took to an individual through a text message.  I have tried viewing the picture and pushing the button that brings up the option to send the picture through a message, but when I try to do that I always get a message telling me that the message has failed.  I'm not sure exactly what to do at this point.  Any help will be much appreciated.

    I am using AT&T and the individual I'm trying to send the message is also on AT&T service, but they have a different type of phone that is not an iPhone.

  • Why can't I send links in yahoo mail?

    When I paste a link in yahoo mail, the receiver doesn't receive it as a hyperlink and has to copy/paste it into their browser.

    Thank you.
    I've restarted Firefox in Safe Mode as suggested and when I open the Yahoo Mail slideshow it works fine. I guess that tells me there may be a corrupted file somewhere. I'm just not sure how to go about finding out how to correct it. When I try to switch to the 'Default Appearance Theme' it won't allow me to do it while in Safe Mode. Should I be trying this AFTER I get back out of 'Safe'?
    I don't keep any cache so I'm not sure how I can bypass it. I've tried reloading the mail inbox page by pressing "Command + Shift + R" but to no avail...
    This problem just came up in the last two days, so I went back one week in my Time Capsule backup to reload a copy of Firefox from a time when I wasn't having problems - still no luck. The photos won't open in the slideshow preview on Firefox unless I'm running in Safe Mode.
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions as to how to isolate the file or add-on that may be corrupted...

  • Why can't i send & receive e-mails

    Why can't I send and receive e-mails since synching my ipohne4 with I tunes at the weekend. It was working fine up until then

    Are you getting any errors? I'm wondering if it "restored" an old password or something from your computer?

  • Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

    Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
    This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
    Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

    Sorry ?
    An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
    Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
    If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
    I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

  • Why can't I send a picture in the e mail?

    In the last couple days I can only send picture as an attachment.If I browse or drag any picture into the e mail the picture will be deleted by Avast or Thunderbird. I have turned Avast off and sent an e mail with a picture and the picture got deleted. I can only think Thunderbird getting rid of my pictures and also not let my friends send me a picture.
    How could that be?
    Ed

    I set up another e mail account with Outlook and was able to send a picture to my Thunderbird address intact. Just now I stopped my virus protector Avast altogether and sent a picture to my Outlook address from Thunderbird and the picture was deleted.
    The reason I'm searching for the answer here to remedy this problem because most people I'm sending family pictures are not computer smart and they cannot open attachments to look at the pictures. On the other hand if the pictures are visible in the e mail they can share memories with me.
    So again why can't I send pictures in Thunderbird anymore yet a week ago it was not a problem. This is another topic besides when typing an e mail and the font will change for no apparent reason.

  • Why can't i send multiple files through airdrop ? , it accepts but shows only one photo

    why can't i send multiple files through airdrop ? , it accepts but shows only one photo

        Hello there Laurengrayce,
    I message all of the time and I want you to do the same, to anyone you would like!  Demmo provided a good suggestion of having this person check their services and ensuring they're setup as a 10-digit number, but I would like to provide some of my own suggestions.
    If they are in fact already setup as a 10-digit number, I would recommend deleting this persons contact from your phone as well as the entire messaging thread (long press and hold on thread to delete).  Readd them to your contact list and try again.
    Please advise if this continues and they've already checked with their provider.
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I send mail from IPad while overseas

    Why can't I send mail while overseas? I can receive but al though have placed smtp other server in settings I still cannot send

    To get the right scoop for setting up your outgoing server, google your ISP and the words email settings, and you will likely find a page that will give you the settings.  While you are there, see if there is a restriction on where they will send from.  Some US ISPs simply will not send e mail, if you are put of your home territory.  The. Only way around that is a different mail provider, such as gmail, yahoo or whatever.
