Hi, I've set up Mail on my iMac to access my AOL email account and am able to receive emails okay, BUT I cannot Send them .
I've checked that the settings are correct with those stipulated by Apple and on the AOL Help website, deleted and recreated the Account within Mail just in case, tinkered with one or two of the settings (eg checking/unchecking the SSL box for the output server - as Apple and AOL give contradictory values for this !) and yet .... I cannot send an Email (although I can file incoming messages in mail folders or delete them if I choose).
A further complication is that the folders held on the AOL server are not all reproduced within the Mail view.
I've phoned Applecare and did not get much help (basically, "try AOL .....").
Anyone else encountered similar problems ? and know of a solution ?
Any advice on this would be gratefully received.
THANKS
