Thunderbird SMTP server timeout
I cannot send out a message. I've been using this for years, and no problem until a few months ago. Received error message that a message could not be sent because of timeout with the SMTP server. Here's what I'm using: Thunderbird 102.6.1 (64-bit) running on Win 10. The SMTP server is Earthlink (smptauth.earthlink.net) on port 465 (default) Conn. security: SSL/TLS Auth. method: normal password My ISP is AT&T U-Verse
In looking at the problems similar to this, a suggestion to click on Tools > Options. I can see no 'Options' nor 'Preferences' nor 'Advanced' selections under Tools.
I appreciate very much any assistance you can provide.
Here is my error log: 1673557824804 addons.xpi WARN Checking C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\distribution\extensions for addons Successfully loaded OpenPGP library rnp.dll version 0.16+git20220124.f06439f7.MZLA from C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\rnp.dll RNPLib.jsm:100:15 Found 0 public keys and 0 secret keys (0 protected, 0 unprotected) RNPLib.jsm:301:15 services.settings: Failed to load last_modified.json: TypeError: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource.

Bummer that after four months I don't have a single suggestion about how to be able to 'send' from my account. Perhaps this is so complex, I should give up and get another gmail account.

You may have to adjust your settings for the outgoing server, see https://sites.google.com/view/earthlinkemailsettings/
There isn't anything related to SMTP in the error log.
What is your anti-virus software?
I turned off my anti-virus software, AVG-Free, and turned off my firewall, and tried to send a simple message from Thunderbird. I got the same error - 'Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtpauth.earthlink.net timed out. Try again."
Anything else I could try.
Thanks for responding!
fgruhl, are you still seeing this problem when using newer version?
