I often move my Thunderbird data between my PC's as I move from one base to another and never had any problems in doing so.

I moved my data from my PC in South Africa to the one in Croatia, and now experience problems with one account. I have 5 email accounts on one domain, and these are all working fine.

One email account is for another domain which I have been using for years on Thunderbird, but I now cannot send or receive any emails on that. When receiving it just states "connection to the server has been reset" When sending I get this: "The message could not be sent because the connection to the Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.xxxx.co.za timed out." Nothing changed i.t.o. mail servers. I can send and receive emails on this account via Roundcube though.

I need help with this please.

It's possible that your IP address has been blocked from that particular mail server ( Connection ... has been reset : mail server drop your connection ).

Try with an VPN to see if it helps.
