Thunderbird send message error - smtp connection timed out

Hello, dear volunteer!

I am experiencing a problem with Thunderbird (Version 128.8.1esr, 64-bit) in that I am unable to use it to send messages. Regardless of the message length (whether long or short), I consistently receive back the same error diagnostic, as shown in the image I have uploaded.

Could you please help me with this issue?

Thank you! Armando

N.B.: For the time being, I have no trouble whatsoever in receiving messages.

It may help if you post a screenshot of your SMTP server settings pane.

My first thought is to change port to 587 and use your full email address
