Using mail sometime over the weekend my email quit being delivered by my host. It is on the hosts site that I can access through my browser. I hadn't changed the ports but after not getting mail I attempted to change ports - 25-110, 995-443, 993-143 and I get "invalid certificate" and can't save any changes.
What ports do I need to be able to get my my mail. This applies to my .me account also.
Thanks
Who is your host?
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.

On one of the other computers one email account was working. It had been set up using the hosts Host access in stead of using my domain as the host. It works, and I wonder if the host changed their access to the web hosting host over the weekend?
My host is a local company DP Solutions in Lufkin Texas. It is using Smartermail as it's internet gateway. None of those ports are allowing Apple Mail to retrieve the email. I am also having problems getting mail from my .me account using any of the ports you showed me.
It took awhile plus I had to use the App Specific password option for my secondary Client Air Mail that I use when problems occur but isn't fully setup with sorting mailboxes for the various email senders.
My main client Apple Mail still can't access any of the ports of my Host. I am going to go to them but we have a snow day and most of the town is shut down
AHA, you may be onto something! :)
