Apple mail smtp

Apple Mail uses the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to send emails. Here are the default SMTP settings for Apple Mail:

Outgoing (SMTP) Server:

• Server: smtp.apple.com (or smtp.mail.me.com for iCloud accounts)
• Port: 587
• Authentication: Password (or App Specific Password for 2-factor authentication)
• Encryption: TLS (Transport Layer Security)

Incoming (IMAP) Server:

• Server: imap.apple.com (or imap.mail.me.com for iCloud accounts)
• Port: 993
• Authentication: Password (or App Specific Password for 2-factor authentication)
• Encryption: SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)

Notes:

• If you're using an iCloud account, you may need to use smtp.mail.me.com and imap.mail.me.com instead of smtp.apple.com and imap.apple.com.
• If you're using a custom domain (e.g., yourdomain.com) with Apple Mail, you may need to use a different SMTP server and port.
• Apple Mail may automatically configure the SMTP and IMAP servers for you when you set up your account.
• If you're experiencing issues with sending or receiving emails, you may need to check your account settings, password, or internet connection.

Troubleshooting tips:

• Check your account settings and ensure that your username and password are correct.
• Verify that your internet connection is stable and working properly.
• Try restarting Apple Mail or your device to see if the issue resolves itself.
• If you're still having issues, you can try using a different email client or app to see if the problem persists.
