If the "Outgoing SMTP server" for your SM mail account is the same as

I don't see why it should be different.

It looks like Joe has solved the problem, but just to clear up this
point... mail and newsgroup posts are not sent via the same server.
Mail is sent to an SMTP server (and received via a POP or IMAP
server). Newsgroup posts are sent to an NNTP server (and received via
the same server). It's entirely possible to post to an NNTP
(newsgroup) server without a working SMTP (outbound mail) server.

Nice to know that. Thanks. Now I better understand why the OP was able
to send a post and not able to send a mail.
Here to post this message to news.mozilla.org I used the SMTP server
provided by my ISP.
How is it possible to post to news.mozilla.org without using an SMTP
server ?

Setup Mail & Newsgroups with just a Newsgroup account. Like I just did.

Subscribe to newsgroups.

Compose a message, click Send.
OK, Chris Ilias gives me the full information about my SMTP setting of my newsgroup account.
