Unable to send email through iCloud on my iPhone

I have the same issue.

Me too, I have the same problem. When I used "Other SMTP servers, it solves the problem but it sends the email using the other SMTB email account. It seems that it is a common issure, because it is written in the iPhone "If Mail is unsuccessful using the primary servers, it will try the other SMTP server" .

We need to fix this issue!!

Is anyone use the US store and get the same problem??

I am using none-us store and I think it is because of that.

Thanks...

I've the same problem

i'm an italian customer

Same problem, i'm from Russia

p01-smtp.mail.me.com

p02-smtp.mail.me.com

p03-smtp.mail.me.com

p04-smtp.mail.me.com

p05-smtp.mail.me.com

gave NO results.

Apple, please fix it!

Also, these servers doesnt work on my laptop Mail also, the only way to send emails to use web interface.

The same issue here in Hungary... 😟

iPhone 4 / iOS5

Apple Mail (v5.1) is unable to send as well, but the Connection Doctor returns with no error.

Please fix it or let us know the solution!

Best,

Mate

Ok I figured out how to make it work:)

Just go Mail->Preferences->outgoing mail server and chose "edit smtp server list"

then just look at the picture and fill the fields on that window according to information on image

after savig that just select new server and check "use only this server" on Mail->Preferences->outgoing mail server window

The same!! It's annoying! Please fix it!!!

I'm from Hungary!

And how fix it on an iPhone 4?

I have the same problem

Looks like it is a very bad idea to trust your email to Apple

shame really but if they cannot get smtp right I question whether they can get anything in the cloud right??

If this goes on much longer I will deposit my iphone4 and my ipad2 in the morgue with the igod and let all RIP forever

Add new smtp server in iphone menu:

Settings->mail->account->advanced->mail->outgoing mail server->add server

what to add you can see on image above

I fixed Mail on iphone also, now I can send emails from laptop and iphone

Ok I think this problem here is Apple... You get this problem depending on what smtp server you are registered on.

I always get the message that "p06-smtp.mail.me.com" failed...

But according to the nslookup command there are only the servers "p01, p02, p03, p04"... no p05 and p06 or p07 and p08 ...

What I did to get it to work (only considered as workaround):

first I tried to add a second SMTP server with the address "smtp.mail.me.com", it seemed that the mail went through... but never arrived... then I configured "p01-smtp.mail.me.com" as second server and it worked!!

What is the problem with this workaround?

When you change the password! As it doesn't accept the Apple Token you must configure your Apple ID credentials manually... however when you change them, you have also to change the manually configured second SMTP server!

A little bit slow, but finally it's work! Thank you!

try using p02 or p03 or p04 ... they might be quicker and don't forget to delete the second SMTP server as soon as Apple fixed this mess

I did fix it on my iPhone, but with no additional SMTP servers, no delay, and instant recieve and send, I will tell you how:

Go to Settings > mail > contacts > calenders > icloud > account > mail > SMTP > Add Server... (Make sure to delete any other SMTP Servers first, or disable them)

Add the following details:

Host Name: smtp.me.com

User Name: your full email account, including domain (Ex: john@me.com)

Password: type your email password

After a moments, the dialog will disappear as if nothing changed, but it will be fixed.

Enjoy...

"smtp.me.com" is wrong, it should be "smtp.mail.me.com", but i tried that also. The mails went through but never arrived at the designated destination!
