SMTP Timeout with Cpanel email

I have a custom email that I use for work and I was not able to get it working on Thunderbird. When I add the email/password, it detects the settings and then says it cannot confirm the password.

To workaround this, I only add the email, and then when it detects settings, it asks me to input the password. And when I do that, it adds the account and attempts to read my incoming STMP server. I get an error that it times out. And when I try to send emails, it says it cannot access the outgoing STMP.

I use cpanel and when I access my email via roundcube, it shows me my messages. I have cloudflare set up via namecheap with the correct DNS records. My other email clients (gmail/outlook) work fine. I have reinstalled thunderbird so Im not sure what else I can do

SMTP is an outgoing protocol and while there are some providers that use the same server name for incoming and outgoing generally they use a port to determine the protocol that answers when a request is made to the server.

Note that generally it is antivirus programs that mess up account creation. That outlook works and Thunderbird does not on the same device actually increases the chance of it being antivirus related as Outlook relies on the Windows certificate store for encryption and it is very easily manipulated programmatically to add dud certifying authorities. Thunderbird has no programmatic manipulation, instead requiring a manual adding of "new" trusted certifying authorities. So if you are using SSL/TLS or StartTLS then my guess is your antivirus is the root problem.

So I did make an exception for thunderbird for my AV (Windows Defender) after looking here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Testing:Antivirus_Related_Performance_Issues

I made exceptions for Thunderbird Profiles and the executable itself, both on the C drive. And did a fresh install (after adding the exceptions) and my gmail/outlook accounts work perfectly vs the custom IMAP email.

Im still getting server timeout issues and I am at the point of giving up as I have had no other issue with 3rd party email clients
