Thunderbird can no longer send messages since latest upgrade

Sending a new message, or replying to old messages is not possible: Thunderbird hangs forever, and cannot be closed (not even with Windows 8.1 Task manager. There is no Thunderbird Error log written. In Safe Mode the same happens. A forced windows reboot is the only way to stop this. Anti-virus does not check outgoing mail. Using pop and yahoo, and also gmail/IMAP; the yahoo and gmail accounts (web mail) are fine.
please suggest a solution as without Thunderbird I am helpless (there are 20 years worth of messages in the subfolders!)
UPDATE: I reinstalled Version 30 and now the problem is gone and I can send normally. Anyone has any ideas what is going on? Why can''t I send mail using the latest version of Thunderbird?
I am requesting a reply, please. Thunderbird is no longer workable. The problem came back and sending a message takes 5+ minutes. I've disabled add-ins (safe mode), and antivirus doesn't check outgoing messages. There are no error logs written; TB just hangs and does nothing, and then fails to send.

  • Ichat-AIM error. can no longer send messages to offline buddies

    I was always able to send messages to offline buddies before until today when I received this message:
    "AIM error
    Your message could not be sent.
    You cannot send any more offline messages."
    After receiving this message I was no longer able to send messages to any of my offline buddies, not just the one that I was IMing at the time . I was using an AIM sn that I created before I bought my macbook (I just got my macbook in January). Please help me! How can I go back to the way things were? I've been scouring the online forums and have not been able to find a solution to my problem! please help!
    (iChat Version 4.0.3 (605))

    Hi,
    Welcome to the  Discussions
    iChat does not have a setting for changing this.
    iChat can not send Off Line Messages but can receive them if you don't block them with the AIM System Message Chat that comes at the same time.
    iChat 4 can send them and receive them.
    The Incoming ones can be blocked in th same way.
    I have no info if blocking Incoming ones causes the Outgoing ones to be stopped as well.
    As iChat does not have this feature you would need to download a client (for AIM) that does allow you to change the Setting.
    AIM for Mac is still at version 4.7 and does not seem to have a setting for this.
    I would look at AdiumX or ProteusX

  • I can no longer send messages from Thunderbird; I've restarted Thunderbird and my Mac to no avail. Do I need to re-install Thunderbird?

    Thunderbird still picks up my incoming mail just fine. I've compared my account setting with my husband's, who shares this email address (on his PC), and we can't find a discrepancy.

  • Help cannot send messages since latest update

    Need another update is I can send messages

    That anti virus? is it Nortons security suite? I think that is what comcast give their xfinity customers but I am not sure what everyone else gets.
    Assuming is is the Norton's product go into the firewall component and explicitly allow Thunderbird unrestricted access to the internet. Norton's product have a long history of blocking new releases of mail programs because the version number changed.
    Go onto the SMTP setting you have in the image and make sure each has a description entered.
    Now check in the account settings by clicking the account name in the list so you select the item about Server settings for each account and make sure the selected SMTP server is what you think it is. Now there is a description that will show in the list.

  • I can no longer load Google since I upgraded to the new version of fierfox & its definitely not anything to do with my firewall. How do I figure out what the problem is?

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 and every time I try to open the home page with the Google search bar teh connection times out and its unable to connect. If I type any other address in the address bar it will open up the site, it's only Google it won't open. I've worked through every step on the Firefox support page and checked all my settings, run scans for malware, checked the firewall settings etc and even with my firewall, antivirus & spam filters all turned off I still can't open Google. I even uninstalled Firefox 4 and went back to version 3.6.16 but still have the same problem. Will I ever be able to Google again? Is there anything else I can try? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • After updating my iPHone 3G to the latest operating system (5.0.1 (9A405) I can no longer send emails using.  I keep getting an error message it doesn't recognize the server?

    After updating my operating system to 5.0.1 I can no longer send messages on my Road Runner email account even after modifying the outbound server for their mobile one. Opening Mail shows its trying to send but than I'm told the server wasn't recognized and the emails are in a temporary outbox.  I can receive no problem on both Road Runner and Yahoo Mailboxes but can only send on Yahoo.  Problem is that 95% of my emails come into Road Runner. Anybody find a solution to this?

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

    The error I see is you did not specify the proper authentication for the smtp server.
    In the Mail preferences for the account, smtp popup, select Edit SMTP Server List.  A sheet will drop down.  Select Advanced tab on that sheet.  You should, I assume, set the Authentication to password, and set the proper username and password.  That's where the poper would be set if 587 is not the one you should be using.  Maybe it is.  I only bring it up since I see it trying to use port 587.
    If you got this stuff already set correctly then I don't know.  Mail has a problem in your setup.  Maybe delete the account and recreate it from scratch.

  • HT204053 The one alias I've had for over 5 years has not fully migrated over to iCloud. My account now shows 3of3 aliases available but I'm still able to receive messages addressed to my old alias. I can no longer send emails using this alias. Help!

    For years I have been using [email protected] for business.
    It is on my business cards, stationary and most of my closest correspondences are maintained off of that email.
    The documentation I've read indicates aliases should be transferred over as part of this iCloud migration but this does not seem to be the case. My account now shows 3of3 aliases available but I'm still able to receive messages addressed to the alias. I can no longer send emails from this alias.
    How do I get this corrected?

  • TS4268 iPhone users can no longer send me text messages now that i've moved to a non-iOS phone. Can iMessage service or Message users be refreshed to see me as a normal text message recipient?

    iPhone users can no longer send me text messages now that i've moved to a non-iOS phone. Can iMessage service or Message users be refreshed to see me as a normal text message recipient?
    I still have an iPhone, but haven't turned it on for weeks. And there's no SIM in it, so no cell service, just WiFi.  When I turn it on after a prolonged period of having it off (weeks), a bunch of messages popup that should have been forwarded to my new phone (same phone number and carrier as when I was an iPhone user) but appear to sit in iMessage queue indefinitely instead.
    I'm guessing it has to do with the link that's made when an iPhone first realizes that it's talking to another iPhone and defaults, for all future texts, to iMessage.  You know, the green to blue switch.  How does that association get undone?
    Has anyone else seen this, and if so, is there a fix?

    your number can remain on the imessage server for some time

    How long has it been going on? I've had my yahoo mess up and if i wait a bit it resolves itself. Yahoo is doing something with their servers and it messes with your mail if your mail happens to be on one of those servers.
