my regular password, abd smtp and imap now both work!

I lost contact with Dodgers' SMTP from my Thunderbird some time back,
what do your working settings look like? Mine are attached below

I think Rogers is using Yahoo or Hotmail (Microsoft) behind the

about a year ago. I gave up.
I'm now using Thunderbird. You can tell by the way paragraph is
mangled in my post. :-(

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get outgoing SMTP email to work with Rogers,
and would appreciate any help.
I am not looking for a full solution; all I need is for outgoing
email to work from the command line in my user account. I don't
need a system-wide solution, or a solution that works with GUI email
readers. See below for a sample use-case.
I used to have a solution that had lines like this in my $HOME/.mailrc:
BEGINS
set smtp=smtp.nl.rogers.com:587
set smtp-auth-user=MY-ROGERS-EMAIL-ADDRESS
set smtp-auth-password=ROGERS-DEVICE-SPECIFIC-PASSWORD
set replyto="Ariel Burton <MY-OTHER-EMAIL-ADDRESS>"
set smtp-use-starttls
set ssl-verify=ignore
ENDS
Something like this worked for many years, but stopped working
a while ago.
Earlier versions differed slightly, e.g., using "from" or "sender"
in place of "replyto", or different port numbers.
This is a transcript of how it fails:
BEGINS
/home/me> mail MY-OTHER-EMAIL-ADDRESS
Subject: test
test
.
EOT
% smtp-server: 550 Request failed; Mailbox unavailable
"/home/me/dead.letter" 12/365
. . . message not sent.
ENDS
Can anyone see what am I doing wrong, and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Ariel
