Q: Mail malfunctioning. Cannot Send. Suspect Virus. Need Help.

Hi Linc,

This is what it says in the window

"Cannot send message using the server iCloud (iCloud)

The server response was: Blocked -- see **********

It's the same regardless of the addressee. Above is just one example.

Connection doctor, by the way, says all is OK in re: SMTP server.

Does this help at all?

Thanks

As far as I'm aware, all the other active SMTP's are working, i.e., sending mail.  At the moment I'm successfully using my Hotmail account from within Apple Mail, at least until this problem with iCloud gets sorted out.

Thx

I Should have mentioned that iCloud.com -- I.e., Apple webmail -- works just fine. This adds to the mystery as does the fact that the problem affects both my MacBook Air and my Mac Mini.

Thx

hmmm. I believe so. Yes, just looked at the iCloud preference pane and that box is checked.

Interesting... will give it a try, thanks.

Thanks -- I'll give it a try.

Hi

Just did this, but problem remains.  Should I recheck the contacts box?

Thx S
