This still sounds like the problem I described earlier in this thread.

If your home ISP is indifferent as to which SMTP server you use, all
will work. If your road ISP requires you to use their SMTP server, then
any mail sent to any SMTP server other than theirs will be blocked.

Has nothing to do with SeaMonkey. Two workarounds:

1) When connecting on the road, use the corresponding webmails for the
various accounts, remembering to cc: or bcc: yourself so you'll have a
local copy of everything you send; or

2) Set up a fourth SMTP server in SeaMonkey, which you don't use at
home. When you're on the road, change your settings so all outgoing mail
from all three accounts goes through that server. The server has to be
that of the ISP through which you're connecting, and you have to have an
account with that ISP and give name/password the first time you send
this way (tell SM to remember these). When you return home, point your
various accounts back to the various SMTP servers you would normally use.

In my case, I don't have an account with that ISP, but my nephew kindly
allowed me to use his name/password to send mail. Of course, I would
never use the info to read his mail, but I could if I were unscrupulous,
so few people would let you do this.

Wow, what a hassle.  So much for convenient and friendly Wifi's when on
the road.  Sigh.

My Web host and one of my three E-mail providers agrees with the
info in an article someone private-mailed me that Port 25 is being
blocked.

He suggested trying Port 26, so I have made that change and will test
it at a non-home Wifi connection tomorrow.  It appears to work from
here OK.
