Hi all – could someone please give me the settings for sending emails from an xtra email address – have been able to send emails for the last 8 months or so, now for some reason when I try to send one or reply to an email I get the message CANNOT SEND MAIL, THE SENDER ADDRESS WAS INVALID. I haven't made any changes to the settings. Help please.

Hi – I believe that for your outgoing mail server you can use either send.xtra.co.nz or smtp.xtra.co.nz.
If you're talking about for the Mail App on your iPhone, you should add the account as a Yahoo! email account. The only thing you'll need to enter is your xtra email address as the Yahoo! user name, and your password. All the other settings are then automatically taken care of and the account is added as IMAP rather than POP.

Thank you clicknz- changing to SMTP seems to have solved the problem – odd though that I was able to send emails until recently and I hadn't changed the setting.
Thank you also Steve- will add the Yahoo account.
