Thunderbird can receive emails correctly (imap) but is unable to send (smtp). Recent problem, no changes to configuration.

Thunderbird 102.2.2 (64-bit) Linux Mint 20 IMAP server config:

 imap.gmail.com:993
 t****.f****@gmail.com
 ssl/tls
 OAuth2

SMTP server config

 smtp.gmail.com:465
 t****.f****@gmail.com
 ssl/tls
 OAuth2

Recent problem, no changes to configuration. Only affects GMAIL (Yahoo works OK). Have deleted and reinstalled TB Have deleted and reinstalled all mail accounts and pw Have cleared DNS cache and treid smtp.googlemail.com (same problem so reset)


Developer error console has following messages immediately aafter an attempted email send:

mailnews.smtp: error { target: TCPSocket, isTrusted: true, name: "ConnectionRefusedError", message: "Network", errorCode: 2152398861, srcElement: TCPSocket, currentTarget: TCPSocket, eventPhase: 2, bubbles: false, cancelable: false, … } ​bubbles: false ​cancelBubble: false ​cancelable: false ​composed: false ​composedTarget: TCPSocket { host: "smtp.gmail.com", port: 465, ssl: true, … } ​currentTarget: null ​defaultPrevented: false ​defaultPreventedByChrome: false ​defaultPreventedByContent: false ​errorCode: 2152398861 ​eventPhase: 0 ​explicitOriginalTarget: TCPSocket { host: "smtp.gmail.com", port: 465, ssl: true, … } ​isReplyEventFromRemoteContent: false ​isSynthesized: false ​isTrusted: true ​isWaitingReplyFromRemoteContent: false ​message: "Network" ​multipleActionsPrevented: false ​name: "ConnectionRefusedError" ​originalTarget: TCPSocket { host: "smtp.gmail.com", port: 465, ssl: true, … } ​returnValue: true ​srcElement: TCPSocket { host: "smtp.gmail.com", port: 465, ssl: true, … } ​target: TCPSocket { host: "smtp.gmail.com", port: 465, ssl: true, … } ​timeStamp: 0 ​type: "error" ​<get isTrusted()>: function isTrusted() ​<prototype>: TCPSocketErrorEventPrototype { name: Getter, message: Getter, errorCode: Getter, … } SmtpClient.jsm:433:17

Whoa ... Mozilla what are you doing.

So it works and here's what I changed. I went to my SMTP settings ... now for Yahoo.com and Seznam.cz the SMTP profile description is left "blank". For Gmail it is set to "GMail".

So for each account (5 gmail addresses) I entered a unique description name. Thinks, at the time, no idiot would select the smtp profile from the description name ... would they?

Restarted TB and, what would you know, suddenly I can send email! Tell me, surely, TB does not use the description name to identify the SMTP profile to use ... surely not. But then changing the descriptions to a unique name for each account would imply TB is doing just that.

As a retired IT dinosaur I'm shocked and must add: "Name, description, "whatever text" is NOT a robust identification method. Must do better!"

No, I take that all back and offer apologies. I restarted TB and it went back to NOT sending emails! This app has problems!

For completeness here's the pop up msg:

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again.

Checked all the settings ... again! and they are correct, as far as I can see. I do wonder why it worked for 2 messages then stopped again.
