bellsouth.net email not working iOS 14.4.1

Att tells me to use browser instead of Apple Mail App on my iPhone and IPad. They say their working on fixing it. Yahoo/ATT switched something (Currently?) and now I can’t add my ATT email to APPLE Mail App using the Yahoo choice. I also tried the “Other” choice but I haven’t been able to get the correct answers to the Ingoing Mail Server and the Outgoing Mail Server yet. Does anybody know them?

I prefer to use Oauth instead of SecureKey too!

Att support at first wanted me to set up a key, but after reading more, I see the Apple Mail App has Oauth in it.

The lack of good communication coming from our vendors about this Email problem is also very sad. I would hope both Apple and Att would send out communications to each of us that have been effected. Both should know who we are that are using the Apple Mail App for Att email. These have been my two most trusted I.T. Vendors.

I think Apple Mail may need to be updated to handle changes for Att email.

Currently.ATT?

Anybody at Apple or ATT that can get with Apple/ATT to get Apple Mail working correctly again with the New ATT email settings?

Thanks

I know other ATT email users that are using IOS devices and have not been effected. And I believe it is because they didn’t change their passwords and are working without any problems, as long as they don’t change their ATT email/Account passwords. And yes they are on the newest flavor of IOS.

I think it has something to do with the

https://currently.att.yahoo.com/ changes.

I Wish APPLE would add ATT as a Choice in their Mail APP, and if necessary add the other top Internet Providers (To show no biases) and make it very easy for us non technical customers to add their email accounts easily.

To me the APPLE IOS Mail APP is a neutral choice for using as a email APP.

They are NOT trying to sell or advertise anything in the APP, that I can remember.

They have a record and reputation of Super Tight Security. So that is why I wish they would stay neutral and make it show that they are neutral by fixing the Mail add account feature to Show ATT as a Choice, and Yahoo as it’s own Choice, and all the others too, Please?

I am on IOS 14.5 and have the same issue with my Bellsouth email. Just stopped working without reason. I have setup the secure mail key on ATT but that did not fix the issue when I use that new password when setting up my bellsouth email. Any other thoughts??

I am still having issues with bellsouth email I deleted the account on my phone and now I can’t add it back because it’s asking me for a password which has been entered a zillion times I too am grandfathered in had this account since the beginning of time? Please help? I can access it from my computer but not my phone😩

I am having the same issue not being able to receive bellsouth email on my iphone. I no longer use Bellsouth/ATT phone service so I can't log on to their sight. How else might I address the issue to add the secured email key?

Thank you!

If you no longer have an account with AT&T they probably canceled your email account.

I've tried this, but when I go to my profile, I cannot find the Manage Secure Email Key anywhere. I can't "choose" an email account, all I can do it "edit" the account info when I click on my email (I only have the one account). Any help is appreciated.

Further, I have a Yahoo account that isn't letting me reset my password on my new iPhone 12 and is locking up whenever I try, Att was of no help becuse they said if I cnage my password again through them, my laptop email might not work No can do. When I follow the instructions on creating a secure mail key on myatt, I can't access either a "create a secure mail key, or "manage a secure mail key". I cannot find it anywhere. When I try support, it just keeps getting me into the same loop. I'm getting email on my laptio and my old iPhone 7, but not the new one no matter what I try. The new user name and password I set up for ATT does not work on my new iPhone.

Also, I don't have a "manage profile" in the upper right hand corner as one of the replies above showd in a screen shot. I have "Profile" so it just gets me into the same loop of not managing anything only editing a number or password.

I can not get my bellsouth.net mail working

then You’ve come to the right place! Just read the rest of the thread you posted to and you will learn how other users have resolved it!

My problem is, about 10 days ago, my bellsouth.net email will not recognize my email or/password. When I go to yahoo mail it will not recognize my email. My other bellsouth.net email works just my main one is not working.

What can I do?

Thank you. My bellsouth account is very old and was grandfathered in. I have not had any trouble with my account until the last IOS update.

I also tried adding it as a yahoo account and it would not accept it.

Yes it does work! My bellsouth account is working now!

Premeau, Can you please tell me how I get 2 Profile?
