I can't send emails

boblore

I live in Germany and use t-online for my email. I can receive emails but not send. I have tried to fix it myself but nothing I do has worked. I don't understand all the technical stuff, so this is maybe my problem. Can anyone help me? PLEASE

Maybe there is someone near me in Germany (Obertshausen) by Frankfurt that can Help. I speak German so this would not be a problem.

if you post screenshot of error message and also screenshot of SMTP server settings pane, someone may have ideas. click to the 'account settings' pane, highlight account name in left sidebar, and look to lower right and click the 'edit SMTP' button. I attached a sample screenshot of where to find it.

Thank you for your reply. I don't know how to make a screenshot so I just wrote the SMTP server information.
