On star Wi-Fi Emails Won’t Send

When I am connected to my in-vehicle Wi-Fi I cannot send email. It does not allow a connection to the outgoing server.  If I disconnect from the Wi-Fi and use the phone cellular network it works fine, as it does when I am on any other Wi-Fi. Has anyone experienced this issue?

    I have this same issue and have to call in to support almost every month.  If I disconnect, from Wi-Fi everything works fine.  Very frustrating.

    It's because the WiFi provided by OnStar is just horrible. You're better off buying a hotspot device from your cellular carrier.
