Thunderbird suddenly unable to send outgoing mail to verizon.net server
I have a Verizon.net email account. It was migrated to AOL servers several years ago. I migrated successfully at that time. Suddenly, two days ago, I began getting error message when trying to send outgoing mail from my Verizon.net account in Thunderbird. Error message says: "Login to server smtp.verizon.net with username xxxxx failed." I can still send email from the Verizon.net address from my mobile device app, so it looks like a Thunderbird problem. I have the current version of Thunderbird installed. None of the Thunderbird account settings were changed or corrupted from what they have been for years. I'm using a PC. The same thing happened to my wife who uses a Mac.

This may be an outage with Verizon. Another user is experiencing the same issue: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1283732
Thank you, gentlemen. Now all we have to do is get someone to address the issue....

Change the User Name to the full email address, or apply the aol.com servers.
