Won't allow me to set an smtp password can't send emails

can't send emails won't allow me to set smtp password

When you say won't let you set the outgoing mail password, have you gone to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calenars > Accounts and the account name > Outgoing Mail Server > Primary Server > Password and set the password at that point? Do you have SSL switched ON or OFF as required by your carrier, and do you have Authentication set to Password, and the Server Port set to what your carrier wants to see, usually 25?

Help! Smtp problems, can't send email

Hi,
Right I have been using Mail version 1.3.11 (v622/623)
for a long time and all of a sudden about 2 weeks ago it starts timing out when sending email. Restarting mail or the computer doesn't change it however it did work once randomly within this 2 weeks!
I have tried a few things like changing the port from 25 to 527 (or whatever it is, can't remember offhand) and even from a different computer. I have tried pinging the server smtp.mac.com from both computers with no luck also.
I haven't bothered with apples help yet as the last 2 questions I had took over 3 weeks to answer. So any help would be fantastic!
I'm using OS 10.3.9 on a 1.5Ghz powerbook, and the email account is a .mac one if that's any use.
Thanks for any assistance...

OK. Finally solved the problem. It is not related to network. I have been having this problem with a number of people on different ISP's.
Here's the scoop. Several ISP's have stopped allowing anonymous relaying on their smtp servers in an effort to improve security. And without warning, a couple of them changed the authentication methods. Initally I dismissed the problem as an authentication problem because the apple mail program feedback says TIMEOUT, not rejected password or ID, which led me to beleive this was a network/port problem.
Some require just a user id, some require id with a password. So, like an idiot I just assumed that since I haven't changed any settings for authentication the answer was not there. But I was wrong. If you authenticate to the smtp server using your mail id and password (should be the same for incoming mail) you should be now able to send. Once I fixed this on all the computers, mail started going through without rejection.
Sometimes it takes a few tries for the mail to actually get accepted, but once you hear that lovely jet sound, you know you've got it.
I'll check back soon to answer any questions you may have.
I'm sorry it took so long to post a solution but other problems have taken precedence.

I have FaceTime on my macbook pro but want to add it to my Mac pro. Since I've already purchased the app, it won't allow me to purchase it again. Can I use the app for both computers? How can I access FaceTime for this computer v. 10.6.8?

I have FaceTime on my Macbook Pro but want to add it to my Mac Pro v. 10.6.8. Since I've previously purchased it in the app store, it won't allow me to purchase it again. Can I use the same app for both of my computers? If so, how do I access the app to download it?

If you upgrade to Lion it comes bundeled with it!
To get it on your Mac Pro just copy the aplication from the aplication folder on your MacBook. You can do this via a thumb drive or over a local network connection.

Hey, as far as I know you need a sim card to activate after a restore
It however does not have to be a fully working sim card, just not blocked or with a pass code, I repair/refurb. some iPhones and can only advise to try and get a free sim card from a provider supported on your phone and activate it with this, or maybe someone can lend you theirs for 5 mins?
To clarify, I have heard there are ways around this, but they sound dubious.

I have a new macbook pro and an LG w2361v monitor. The max resolution the mac is allowing me to set is 1400x1050, why can't I get to the max resolution the monitor can accept (1900x1080)

I have a new macbook pro and an LG w2361v monitor. The max resolution the mac is allowing me to set is 1400x1050, why can't I get to the max resolution the monitor can accept (1900x1080)? I know that the monitor is able to accept this resolution but It can't seem to find it. Is it something to do with the new thunderbolt port? or the fact that I'm utilizing the VGA adaptor? I could go HDMI if that works better.

Use DVI or HDMI.
VGA runs out of steam after a while.

My SMTP setting is gone from my iPhone and I can't send emails. How do I fix it?

Hi,
My SMTP setting is gone from my iPhone and I can't send emails. How do I fix it? Under my email settings the whole server part is missing and I don't know why it's gone or how that happened.
How do I fix it?
Thanks

Delete the account and re-add it.
Standard troubleshooting steps from the manual are restart, reset, restore as new. Which ones have you tried???

TS3899 I can't SEND email from Telus account in Alberta, Canada? Does anyone know how to set up the Outgoing server? Help! And thanks!

Can't SEND email from Telus account in Alberta, Canada, unless I go to web mail. Does anyone know how to set up the Outgoing server? Incoming is fine. Outgoing used to work. We changed it when we went to another location, and can't get it back. Telus support can't fix it. Neither smtp.telus.net NOR mail.telus.net works for Outgoing server to send mail. Please help! Thanks.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

What does it mean when you can't send emails due to server not allowing relaying

Can't send emails re server not allowing relaying - why?

It means that you did not set up the outgoing (SMTP) mail server for your email account correctly. Most likely you did not enter your email address and password because it said "optional". It isn't optional.

I can't send emails from Mail. I have three different accounts set up and have the same problem with all. The mail just sits in my outbox. All worked fine until Yosemite upgrade. Recent update has not fixed problem.

I have been experiencing the same problem. My mail app won't even open on my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. It will show as open, but the app will never actually show up.

The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995
Outgoing ports are...
SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

I can't send emails. I receive a message saying: the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.

I can't send emails anymore. Lately out of nowhere, I couldn't dend any emails fom my Ipad. I receive a message saying: the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works.

Can't send email; Safari won't load new pages

Mountain Lion has broken mail (smtp) and Safari is so bad, I've had to install Chrome. Is anyone else getting the same kind of bad experience with 10.8? I have spoken to my ISP and my settings are ok according to them (O2), but I can't send emails from the Mail app. As for Safari, even half of Apple's own pages won't load. I'll be reverting to Lion from a cloned disc if I can't get this fixed.

Exactly the same is happening to me and I'm with O2,all the settings are correct as well.I spoke to one of the tech people at o2 and they said they'd received about 30 calls about the same thing,thank God I've got Gmail and the iPhone works perfectly.This is rather serious,please Apple do something about it urgently

Does Authenticated SMTP Ensure that the Sender Email Address Matches the Username/password Entered?

Does Authenticated SMTP ensure that the sender email address
matches the username/password entered?
<P>
Not by default. However, in netscape.mail.conf, you can set
RewriteFromUsingAuth and/or RewriteSenderUsingAuth to "Yes"
which will rewrite the header "From:" and/or "Sender:" to be
the authenticated sender of the message.
<P>
On NT, the keys are in the registry under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Netscape\Messaging Server\3.0\Dispatch\Config

I found the answer.
Apple has turned on an app-specific password for iPhoto and other Apple apps. It's located in the Apple ID management section under Passwords and Security.
As soon as I entered that new generated password in iPhoto I was able to send a pic with my iCloud.com email address.
Now I know where to go. Thanks for your help.

I can't send email from my iPad. I am from Australia but on holidays in Greece. Does anyone know what is the smtp outserver for Greece that I should use?

As you haven't told us who your email provider is, no.
There isn't an SMTP server for Greece - it is either provided by your email provider, or the Internet provider you are connected through.
