Mozilla Thunderbird installed on new WINDOWS 11 laptop in May 2026 as an email client for BT MAIL. It has continued to function without issue until early September. At which point it became an issue with sending emails difficult and mostly impossible. When sending I have been prompted to enter my account password, sometimes this would be accepted, but often not as the outgoing email would fail to be sent. The reason given that Thunderbird could not connect to the outgoing BT MAIL SMTP server, even though none of these settings had been changed since installation using IMAP. However a connection test is always a positive result and a certificate is provided. As I write today i have been able to send and/or FWD a few emails, but have no confidence that this will be the case going forward. Last week I made a one off donation to Thunderbird and after rebooting the laptop, I was able to send messages, but only for that day ! The sending issue reappeared the next day.
