Can receive but not send yahoo mail on iphone
Frustrating!
If you're unable to send emails from your Yahoo account on your iPhone, but can receive them, there are a few potential solutions to try:
- Check your Yahoo account settings: Ensure that your Yahoo account is set up correctly on your iPhone. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and select your Yahoo account. Make sure the "Account" and "Password" fields are filled in correctly.
- Verify your Yahoo account password: Double-check that your Yahoo account password is correct. If you've changed your password recently, try updating it on your iPhone.
- Check your iPhone's Mail settings: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and select your Yahoo account. Ensure that the "Outgoing Mail Server" is set to "SMTP" and the "Server" field is filled in with "smtp.mail.yahoo.com" (or "smtp.yahoodns.com" if you're using Yahoo's DNS servers).
- Disable and re-enable your Yahoo account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and toggle off your Yahoo account. Wait for a few seconds, then toggle it back on.
- Check for any email filters or blocklists: Log in to your Yahoo account on a computer and check if there are any email filters or blocklists that might be preventing you from sending emails.
- Try resetting your iPhone's Mail settings: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and tap "Reset" next to "Mail". This will reset your Mail settings to their default values.
- Check for any software updates: Ensure that your iPhone's operating system and Mail app are up to date.
- Try using a different email client: If none of the above steps work, try using a different email client, such as Microsoft Outlook or Gmail, to see if you can send emails from your Yahoo account.
- Contact Yahoo support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you may want to contact Yahoo's support team for further assistance.
I hope one of these solutions helps you resolve the issue and get your Yahoo account sending emails again on your iPhone!
