My emails won't send!
Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server smtp.hotmail.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your SMTP server settings are correct and try again, or contact the server administrator.

if i set up my hotmail account on thunderbird before i add torbirdy then my emails work but if i add on torbirdy and then later set up my hotmail account it won't work. i tried to manually configure the SMTP server settings and nothing worked.
thanks so much after so many hours of trying so many different things you figured it right out for me. Another quick question. where could i find the correct server settings for another email provider i.e. safe-mail.net or gmail or something like this?
ahhh now i can't seem to find any messages in my inbox but i can see them in my sentbox.
i can send emails and view them as being sent in the sentbox but when emails are being sent to me they are not appearing in my inbox?
i figured it all out thanks for that
