I'm having trouble setting up the email service with my domain. The POP server works properly and receives emails that are directed to me. However, the SMTP server isn't working like it should. I'm using Mac Mail v4.3 (latest). My SMTP settings are below.

Server: smtp.webhost.dynadot.com
Port: 25
SSL: Off
Username: [email protected]
Password: entered
Authentication: Password

I'm assuming everything is correct since this was posted in a guide on this website.

Please send a screenshot of your mail client settings to [email protected] and we would be happy to try and locate the issue.  I see emails are arriving to your inbox, so it is likely a settings error.

this is my problem and i cant get rid of it..

anyone able to help??

It depends on how you're setting up your email.  Our help file for Mac Mail (and Outlook) has always suggested port 1025:

It's so Sad that this post was started in 2010, and the solution to it was to change the port from 25 to 1025, yet it's 2012 & under the dyandot smtp setup it's still saying 25.

Thank you for the help. SMTP is now working using port 1025.

Can you post the exact error message? Also, have you tried using port 1025? Some ISPs might have port 25 blocked.
