Which is your email provider? Post a screenshot of your account settings (without revealing any passwords) and of the error message you get, if any.

Read the following article in the meantime to see possible causes of the problem:

In particular, if you're using a VPN, disable it and see whether that makes the problem go away. If it does, check whether your VPN has an option called split tunneling which would allow you to let Thunderbird bypass the VPN.
