Does anyone know why mac mail is trying to connect to configuration.apple.com when i send an email?
The email is being sent using a third party email provider (I do not use Apple/iCloud) any more, and Apple should have part in the process. So why is this connection being made? (Thankfully littlesnitch blocked it for me)
iMac, OS X 10.11
Was Configurator ever used?

See if you have unknown Profiles.

Is Mail running or trying to run?
It may be that Mail is set still at the default App of Apple's Mail to handle Mail, & the crazy part is you have to setup Apple's Mail to use Mail>Preferences>General to set the default Mail App!
Ha, that's funny!
No.... I should have explained better...
I USE MAC MAIL 24/7!! It is my email program. But I don't use any Apple iCloud/Mail services. So I have a 3rd party email provider which Mail connects to for emails, along with a few other connections such as when download images from certain servers like ebay.img.com or whatever. I use Little Snitch to spy on the traffic that spies on me :)
Since I have no connection (bad choice of word) to Apple's mail services, I am just trying to find out why Mac Mail was trying to make the connection to those Apple servers.
Thanks
Hi BD, thanks.
Never heard of Configurator, certainly have never used it no.
I looked in the view menu and nothing with "profiles" listed there.
I'm out of ideas, 'cept maybe some Sys Prefs>icloud thing checked!?
