Unable to send outgoing mail

more options

Suddenly overnight I am no longer able to send mail through the outgoing smtp server, and I get the following message: The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.twc.com timed out.

I went to the Thunderbird help page and my ISP Spectrum provider and tried everything and nothing works, making sure that all settings on the outgoing server are correct. I have no problem receiving mail. I am at the point of dropping Thunderbird as the only way I can send mail out is through Spectrum webmail, which is very unsatisfactory. I think Thunderbird is great and do not want to drop it but I am at wits end. Any suggestions? Jerry

I disabled PC Matic and it made no difference.
