Oh well, time and efforts are already spent. While it's a nice gesture to make the application smarter and think-ahead for it's users, I do feel that Apple should incorporate some form of warning or alerts into the Apple Mail configuration instead of simply blocking access for unsecured connectivity.
#MAC MAIL SMTP SERVER OFFLINE PASSWORD#
Gmail SMTP, or SMTP server that does not uses password authentication works well, but when SMTP authentication is enabled, it seems like a requirement for SSL to be enabled.Īs such, since my server utilizes SSL (TLS Authentication) on a separate name for it's server, I had to use our own registered server name - cloudmail.b**.co*.s* and VIOLA! it worked almost immediately. Re: Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) is offline In response to Julie2017 The settings will vary depending on the email program that you are using, but there will be an option to set authentication for the outgoing mail server. and I realized that Apple Mail on the Mac OS-X (mountain-lion and above) doesn't like non-SSL based SMTP.
I tweaked, re-created account and nothing short of banging the mac on the table. For some weird reasons, my SmarterMail Server settings is shown 'offline' all the time.
You may also wish to check that all your other details were entered correctly when you set up the mailbox. First of all, make sure Enable this account is ticked. In the popup window, click the Accounts tab and select your email address from the left-hand column. Client called me this morning, I found out that the apple mail email settings has gone awry. Click Mail in the top menu bar and then select Preferences.
