Please do not blatantly assume this an unreproducible bug. My ISP and I
have just spent over an hour on this exact same issue. I cannot both
POP3 and SMTP using my account name and password, although two other

the admin, and
this is a mail server issue. ask your admin to fix that.
to eliminate any doubt about that verify that the problem still exists
with a fresh profile.

Thunderbird has a strange problem when working with slow mailservers.
The preference variable
mail.server.server2.timeout hat a default value of 29.
Setting this to 600 solves the problem.

29
after sending a mail.
