Fabian, do you have an active schedule that may have set another SMTP-
server under Locations? A schedule set there will override the account.
Though if another SMTP server was set there it would say another server
name in the process window while PM attempts to make a connection to the
SMTP-server.

Also, are you sure you have set the proper port for the network you use?
Port 25 is commonly blocked in many networks, also with *your* ISP who
may demand you use their specific SMTP-server. Have you checked if their
setup have changed regarding sending with SMTP? 
One way to get around limited use of port 25 in your network is to use
an alternative port like port 587. That may be in use at mac.com, so
it's worth a try. If not, search in the .mac online help for
"alternative SMTP port".
