Q: Can't send email on outlook

That works! Thank you.

p06-smtp.mail.me.com

I tried this but it didn't work.  Are you on a PC or Mac? And what version of Outlook are you using?

This isn't working for me. My e-mail works fine from my iPhone and iPad, but not from my iMac running Outlook 2011. Everytime I try to send mail, I get prompted for my password and then it doesn't go through. I can receive mail fine.

This didn't work for me either.  I also have e-mail working fine on me iPhone and iPad to send and receive.  On my desktop PC running Outlook 2010 the messages just sit in the Outbook and I have a send / receive error.  I can receive emails on my PC in Outlook.

I have Outlook for Mac 2011. I have tried all of the fixes suggested and nothing works. Still can't send emails. Where is Apple with this???

Thank you b_chevy.  That has worked for me.  Using Outlook 2010 on a PC. 

Unbelievable that Apple could have done this and left it unresolved for so long. 

"changed my outgoing SMTP server to p06-smtp.mail.me.com" worked for me - Thx  b_chevy!

I tried changing the outgoing SMTP server to p06-smtp.mail.me.com earlier and it didn't appear to work.  With a few more responses of success with that solution I tried again and this time it worked.  Not sure why it did this time but it did.  Thanks for the help!!

Same problem here... can receive emails (Outlook2010) using my apple account but cannot send any, as of 3 days ago. Same account works fine on my iPad. Been tinkering on it for a while to no success until I read this discussion. B_chevy's solution solved my problem, too. Thanks!  Although I am very grateful about this, it doesn't sound like changing servers is a permanent solution though, and if Apple does come up with one, will we have to revert back to the original outgoing mail server setting? How will we know?

This worked for me.  I've seen this fix in several threads, and to help other users it's "p(zero)6".  I've seen posts listing that as an "oh", which didn't work for me.  p06- did.

This change to the SMTP server seemed to fix the error in sending messages from iCloud in Outlook:

p06-smtp.mail.me.com

Hey all, I'm having exactly the same issue. Can receive but not send (using outlook - iPad and iPhone working finde. Have tried everything, including p06- removing the @me.com from my user name etc

Any other suggestions?

jkh28, did you type exactly "p06-smtp.mail.me.com" in your outgoing mail server setting on Outlook? If you did and it did not help, please try "p01" instead of "p06" - see if that helps. Note - "0" is a zero and lot a letter. See my setting below. I did not have to change anything on my user name.

Thanks to everyone for their help.  After trying the p06-smtp server for about a day, it finally worked.  I had to set the outgoing port to 587 and the encryption was set to TLS vs SSL.  That was the ticket!

Thanks again and good luck to those still trying to figure it out.
