<title>Mail is not sent</title>

<p>There can be several reasons why emails are not sent:</p>

<list>
<item><p>Invalid email address. Check if all the addresses listed as mail recipients are correct. If the message contains a wrong or invalid email address, the message will not be sent.</p></item>
<item><p>Incorrect SMTP settings. Verify if the settings used for outgoing messages is correct. Using the incorrect server address or authentication method may prevent emails from being sent</p></item>
<item><p>Offline status. Evolution may be offline. Check on the <gui style="button">Send and Receive</gui> button; if it is greyed out, then you are offline. To go online, go to <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Work online</gui></guiseq>. You should now be able to use the <gui style="button">Send and Receive</gui> button.</p></item>
