When you First setup an email account on a iOS5 device and for an internet provider email account, in Settings on iPhone/iPad one must set the password twice; once for income and once for outgoing servers. Had to get a new password for my wife and she could not send but could receive email because I didn't realize on iOS5 devices you have to set the out going server password also. Why? Don't have to on an iMac running Snow Leopard/Lion.

The server for reading mail (POP / IMAP) and sending (SMTP) are separate and can have different usernames and passwords.
There are two reasons why Mac Mail doesn't need the password twice. Either it assumes the two usernames and passwords are the same or the user in question is not using authentication for sending. Generally the latter only happens when the user is sending from within their ISP's network.
When I set up Mail on my Mac I did have to enter the authentication for the SMTP.
