I have an old version of Mail, but if yours is similar to mine, look at the 
Mailbox menu and check that all accounts have not been taken offline. The menu 
gives you the opportunity to take them online.

In general being offline implies no internet connection, but since Thunderbird 
works this would appear not to be the problem

Yes.  In Thunderbird, check the Offline submenu under the File Menu.

Thanks. I have checked the online offline status in the menu bar. Makes no 
difference .

When this started (about 6 months ago) I switched to thunderbird. Mail is so 
much better, so I tried it again

Mail problem

2015-07-16 Thread Bill Parker

Folks,

I am experiencing problems sending emails using Mail.   Incoming are NOT 
a problem.


I cannot send anything.  I have had the iinet/westnet techs confirm that 
all is well with the connections ( I use bigpond)


On trying to send a message with Mail I get a small window that says:

Cannot send message using server MAIN  And if I try the other accounts 
this is the same message with server name changed.


I am using Thunderbird to send this message.

Any help welcome.
