I had given up on TB several months ago, but recently downloaded it again. After a couple of hours of messing with it, I was able to get it to send emails again. All was good for about 3 weeks and all of a sudden, it quit sending emails again, for no reason. I had not made any changes in the settings and I'm sure msn had not. Really getting tired of this, but I still prefer TB's customization over the other email software like Outlook, etc.

Any suggestions on how to get it working for good would be greatly appreciated, or I'll have to go back to Outlook and stay with them. This is getting old.

Well, that was easy. I'm not sure why my old settings, which had been given to me by a poster here, worked for a few weeks, and then all of a sudden didn't, but, these new settings did fix the problem. Those questions are, no doubt, above my pay grade.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I've used TB for more years than I can remember, 10 maybe 15, and never had these problems. Tried to donate 20 a year to help the cause but not sure what is happening to them.

UPDATE: Ok, I just tried to send an email from my gmail account "to" my msn account and it sent it with no problems. So I'm really confused now. Thanks.

Your msn outgoing server should use port 587 with STARTTLS security. The gmail smtp should be smtp.gmail.com, 465, SSL/TLS, OAuth2, email address.
