What is the exact model of your AirPort Extreme? Is your email a POP or IMAP account? Who is it with? What is the make & model of Internet modem?
Modele number is: A1354
pop email
no router, just AirPort extreme
Thank you for you help.
Thanks for the information. Can you access your POP mail account via a web browser but just not via the Mac Mail client? Were you able to access this account before? Did you do any updates to your Mac recently? Finally are you able to access this account when outside of your local network?
I can access my account from Gmail but not from Mac Mail. It was possible to access mail until I change password. No update. the issue came when I did password update.
When iMac is connect to ethernet cable, no issue. Everything work.
I guess it is time to buy a new airport.
Thank you,

What password did you change? If you are able to access your Gmail POP mail account with a web browser then both your Mac's and router firewall are not the problem. Instead, it could be as simple as a setting in Mac Mail that is mis-configured. I would suggest that you delete, and then, recreate your Gmail connector in Mac Mail to see if this resolves the issue. Also, did you recently enable Google's 2-step verification or established a Google app password? If so, you will need to create a unique password for using Gmail in Mac Mail in order to access it.

... and this could be another issue that may need to be resolved. Please try the above solution first and post back your results before we attempt to tackle this one.
"What password did you change?"
password was change on my web site control panel (ex: info@mydomaine.com) for security
"If you are able to access your Gmail POP mail account with a web browser then both your Mac's and router firewall are not the problem"
If I use a browser like Chrome, I can login to Gmail and send/receive mail with info@mydomaine.com.
I know you suggest many option with Gmail, understand before this discusion, Gmail was not configure in Mac Mail. I have a Gmail and use emails like: info@mydomaine.com for option because of that issue.
Now that I have add my Gmail account to Mac Mail, I can send email from Gmail out going server
2 things for more informations:
My emails accounts have 2 differents server:
Configuration are the same with thoses server. Email using "server2300.domaine.com" work sending/receiving no issue.
second: when iMac is connect to ethernet cable, everything works no issue.
I have reset my AirPort base and firmeware is update to: 7.6.4
iMac has all lates update until today. 10.10.3
I appreciate your time + support and hope we can fix this.
thank you
Just so I understand. Are you running a mail server on your local network?
no. I have a web site and my emails are on the server of the hosting company
