Anyone else having problems with Mail 2.0 after the update? When I try to send mail, Mail will not find the correct SMTP server to use and defaults to my .Mac account using "smtp.mac.com"

    You have to select the correct SMTP server.

    That I know. What I meant is Mail does not me. In other words, it only shows "smtp.mac.com". All worked perfectly with 10.4.1 . And, yes, I repaired permissions.

    I can't believe Tiger Mail still doesn't have a Status Bar. I really miss it. Is it worth filing a bug report to Apple to try and get it back?

    I had problems with Mail in 10.4.2 not connecting to our smtp server which was smtp.something.com.au,

    After talking with my ISP i just changed the smtp to the actual IP address, being

    123.123.123.45 or something similar and all was hunky dory



    This may work for you

    I have the same problem.

    when you get this annoying message. close the window & click on "Get Mail"

    You might not get mail but it seems to do the trick. Go back to "draft" & open the email you want to send & just do it. It will work
