 Double-check the Server Settings for each smtp server for each
 account.  Make sure the port, ssl, and authentication selections are
 correct.  I've seen several instances where those settings were lost.

 I checked all accounts and everything is there... and I can't see  
 any error. Three different accounts are not sending: all gmail  
 accounts, all mac.com accounts and aliases and my provider verizon.  
 One server works which is on my own domain. I never saw this happen  
 before.

Sorry about the delayed response here, I was out of town this week,  
but verizon just blocked port 25 for outgoing last week. They sent  
out an e-mail about it, saying (at least in my area) to switch to  
587, for all accounts

Could your provider have changed any port settings? I've had this 
happen in the past, incoming worked fine but nothing went out of 
certain accounts.

 Try deleting all the smtp accounts and re-creating them. You won't
 mess up the incoming mail or anything saved on your Mac; smtp is
 outgoing only.

Hi Bruce, thanks for your response. I opened Mail prefs and in the
Accounts Pane, chose one of the non outgoing accounts, went down to  
the Outgoing Mail Server scroll box, scrolled down to Edit Server  
List, near the bottom of the listed smtp servers. I killed the  
server and then hit Add new Server in that same list and added back  
the deleted info by typing it into the required panels. Still not  
working. If I delete the account itself, when I recreate it, will I  
have lost the mail in the mailbox... or lost access to them. Or will  
the recreated account automatically pick them up again? I'm using a  
different server and hope this goes through.
