Good afternoon, all. I am running Ubuntu 11.10, Thunderbird 8.0. I am having trouble sending messages using SMTP, via my Live account. I have verified that my settings are correct, to the best of my knowledge, and POP3 is working correctly. Whenever I try and send an e-mail, I see a message stating that Thunderbird is connected to smtp.live.com but, after a couple of minutes, I receive the following error: 'Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to the SMTP server timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.' Any ideas?

I checked my Hotmail account and it works. So it is something that have to do with the account settings. These are mine:




  1. smtp.live.com

  2. port 587

  3. STARTTLS

  4. Normal password

  5. [email protected]



Hope it helps.
