Email relay.plus.net not working

As of today both myself and my husband are unable to send emails on our iPads and iPhones.

We get a message saying

The connection to the outgoing server 'smtp.plus.net failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured for Mail accounts in Setting.

We have tried this but it did not help

We have not changed any settings within our email accounts

We use Plusnet email addresses and the outgoing mail  server SMTP is set to relay.plus.net

Re: Email relay.plus.net not working

Hi @funkylady,

Please accept my apologies for the issue in sending emails.

Could you ensure the setting for outgoing mail are entered as below on all devices.


Username: Account username, or if using an additional mailbox, username+(mailbox name)
Password: Your mailbox password

 

SMTP Outgoing mail server: relay.plus.net  
SMTP Outgoing mail server port:587

 

SSL: Off for both incoming and outgoing

If the issue persists and you can confirm the settings are correct, feel free to send us a screenshot of your settings without sensitive information so we can narrow down the issue.

Thank you.
