I have a verizon.net address, which I chose to retain two years ago when
AOL began servicing the account (the other option was to accept the
corresponding aol.com address). My settings are the same as yours, and
they haven't stopped working (just tested).
Under Tools | Password Manager, enter "verizon" in the search pane at
top left and you should see an entry called "verizon.net" containing:
mailbox://mail.verizon.net (mailbox://mail.verizon.net) prefix
smtp://smtp.verizon.net (smtp://smtp.verizon.net) prefix
smtp://smtp.verizon.net (smtp://smtp.verizon.net) prefix.verizon.net
where "prefix" is the part of your email address before the "@" sign.
I'm assuming you told SeaMonkey to remember your passwords; if not
you'll have to enter your incoming and outgoing mail passwords for every
transaction.
If you click "Show Passwords" at the bottom right, all three should have
the same password. Tech support will probably be unable to tell you your
personal mail password, but if you can retrieve mail for this account,
use that password (the one listed for "mailbox"). Case-sensitive, of course.
SM's normal behavior when authentication fails (when a password is
rejected by the server) is to prompt you to enter a new password or
retry with the existing one. If it's not doing that, you can force it to
do so by deleting the smtp entry in Password Manager and then trying to
send mail from that account. When it prompts you, be sure to check the
box telling SM to remember your password so it will create a new entry
like the one you just deleted.
