I installed Thunderbird on a Linux OS (Ubuntu). I have three E-mail addresses, configured them all taking detail info from other laptop (Mac OS) where Thunderbird works fine. I am receiving mail on all three account but can not send on any of my accounts. When I click on "+New Message" or the "write a new message" nothing happens. Any ideas?
