Not receiving GMAIL account messages.

Cannot send GMAIL account messages

Recently started receiving this error message.

"Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: Try again later, closing connection.. " -- This is the full message on screen.

Have tried all the standard "fixes" suggested on Mozilla-related help sites.

Even tried AI solutions. None work.

This happened about a week ago, as well.

Then, a couple of days after, Thunderbird came good and was working as it should.

Come this Monday, it's stopped working again, as per last week!

Is this a GOOGLE issue?

Nothing is working to solve the problem.

Now stuck with no email function on Thunderbird (Desktop PC Win 11)

NOTE: occurs on my Apple IOS, using MS Outlook, as well?!?
