Hey everyone

We have been having a few issues in the household with xtra mail not sending on iphones, two different phones, two different xtra accounts with the same issue. Everything has been working fine until a few days ago with none of the settings touched, mail can still be received but no mail can be sent with the error "incorrect account name or password" coming up, reentering the password makes no difference. 

Both have been setup as per the instructions on telecom's website using yahoo tab in mail settings.

Any help would be much appreciated.

recently upgraded to IOS7?

I think I came across the same problem with a friends phone last weekend, the Yahoo Xtra mail server setting was returning that error, 

This thread points to IO7 having a flaky SSL implementation, which may be the cause of it all

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5325035?start=15&tstart=0

Kludge solution was to have them use Yahoo's mail app rather than the default IOS one and that solved the problem, 

But, I will try out the SSL thing later.

Got it going now, a combination of changing to port 25 and turning off SSL. Not sure if it was related to ios 7 or the server decommissioning.
