Mail won't send on MBP but works fine on everything else ?

Paddy@CIRL

Hey guys,

A bit of a strange one this.

I've a pop account associated with all my devices (iMac, MBP, iPhone & iPad)

It works absolutely perfectly with everything except it refuses to send mail on the MBP. All the settings are identical and still no luck.

Anyone have any suggestions ?

it refuses to send mail

...is rather vague. What exactly is the error message?

I had this same issue. Deleted the account and set it up again fixed it.

If he could be bothered to answer the question, it would help.

It's often the case that Mail puts an account "off-line" without informing you. Simply put it back "on-line".

Jesus buddy, sorry for putting you out. I was away working all weekend and this is the first chance I had to read and respond.

It was just constantly sending but would never send, it would then throw up a message saying the server is offline and to try later or try another server. The server definitely wasn't offline, nor were any settings of the account offline.

I solved it by removing the account and re-adding it. No idea what caused it, but that definitely fixed it.
