Incoming grayed mail server

Does anyone know how to make the field active incoming mail server - while you can change the server name?

I'm changing the name of the server for an account that is already using the Setup program:

Select the account email (on the left pane), and then right-click and select Edit "< email >" in the menu.

But, the server is gray and I can't change it.

    OT: Need help with my Email.

    I'm unable to send emails from my mail server incoming does not work my outgoing mail server does not work, I was try and try, but nothing helped. I can't see send mail sort I try my windows 7 is expired I need to update I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I read the instructions on the help and support, but that doesn't help much.

  • Unable to connect to the mail server

    When I initially try to access online e-mail I get this error message

    Can't send or receive messages on behalf of ec.rr.com pop server. The pop server host ec.rr.com is not found. Please check that you have entered the server name correctly.

    Windows Live Mail error - ID 0x800ccc0D

    PROTOL POP3

    Not secure (SSL)

    Socket error - 11004

    If I go to 'Tools' and click 'sync all e-mail accounts", after the second or third time I click it, I am able to connect.

    My internet service provider, Time Warner, making sure that it is a problem with Windows Live Mail.

    Any suggestions?

    You probably entered the wrong server name. Because you transcribed the error message instead of copy paste, we do not see what is wrong. RR help pages:

    The address of the outgoing mail (SMTP) server is:

    SMTP - server.ec.rr.com

    The address of the incoming (POP3) mail server is:

    pop - server.ec.rr.com

    Right-click on the account name in the folders pane, and then select Properties. Make the changes under the servers tab.

    If this does not help, please click on the error message to select it, and then use a right click to copy and paste in your response.

  • Mailing address: change the incoming mail server

    My servers have changed and I need to add new servers to my Mail application, but I can't change the incoming mail server: the text in the incoming mail server field is light gray and I can't choose or change.

    Can someone help me and tell how to change the incoming mail server?

  • Corrupted incoming for Gmail account mail server settings

    After the upgrade to El Capitan, Mail was working fine, but then stopped working for my account Gmail after a few reboots of the mail app and maybe a reboot of the system. I found that my outgoing mail server settings were not accurate, then I fixed it those. Others have reported on this subject.

    I have another problem, however. My server settings for the account of Gmail incoming mail are corrupt. Instead of imap.gmail.com, incoming mail server settings are imap.mindspring.com. Probably, it is that I got my return e-mail address set on my mindspring email when sending the Gmail account.

    This field is locked for editing. How should I do? I don't want to remove the e-mail account and recreate completely. I'm very comfortable to do low-level stuff if anyone has some type of command line or other fixes.

    Thanks for any help.

    Awesome. AppleScript to the rescue:

    say application "Mail" to the value server name of the account ' GMail ' to 'imap.gmail.com '.

    and in fact.

  • The field "Incoming mail server" cannot be empty.

    It all started with Notes in Mail, do not sync with Notes on iCloud more.

    So I tried to delete the iCloud account in Mail and add more later. I did it in Mail and in system preferences.

    But now, when I try to change some preferences and save them, it gives me the following error: "the field"Incoming mail server"cannot be empty." The field is well informed, and it is greyed out, so I can't change it.

    How can I fix? I've tried signing to iCloud and restart my MacBook etc.

    See you soon,.

    I just found the answer myself. I clicked on the Inbox folder, secondary went to 'Read the account information' and changed the behavior of the mailbox there.

  • I'm answering an ad on craigslist and Outlook Wizard Windows wonder for the mail server (POP, IMAP, or HTTP) and anSMTP server used for incoming mail. How can I find these?

    I'm tryilng for answering an ad on craigslist. I could never do it because when I try to answer the ad, I am sent to Windows Outlook Wizard. I wonder for an incoming mail server. (POP, HTTP IMAPor) and an SMTP server for mail out. Where can I get these from?

    Sorry, but I don't know a thing about dam on computers. I use it a lot... What is an ISP?

    ISP = Internet service provider.  Anyone who buys a PC and want to get online purchases this connectivity with an Internet service provider.  A lot of people get their Internet service from their cable company, like Comcast or Charter.  Some use AT & T.  Some use Verizon.

    Most (all?) Internet service providers also has mail services, assigning to customers who want one, an e-mail address.  AT & T, for example, provides e-mail ending addresses by @att.net.  People can also use independent e-mail like Google Mail providers, Hotmail/Live or Yahoo, which do not depend on any of particular Internet Service provider.

    Clearly if you try to answer message from Craig's list, you must have a messaging services provider and an e-mail address for this vendor.  Trying to repond to a message by clicking on a MailTo URL in a web page (i.e., mailto:*** address email is removed from the privacy *) usually, you need a mail client - a program that allows to send and receive mail - on your computer.  If you use an e-mail service such as Hotmail or Google Mail, accessed through a web browser, online then you can not send mail by clicking on the link email in a web page or a message without changing your Windows registry database, something not to be taken lightly by anyone who is a self-proclaimed computer naive.  Some providers of online, like Yahoo Messenger, provide toolbars that integrate with your web browser to provide a part of the functionality of a complete email client, for example the activation of the option click MailTo URLS on web pages.
