I setup my email on thunderbird at mates house (with pass so Its protected) So when im round hers i can read I definateley used port 587 again and it does not send !!!

its exactly the same identical to the way its setup from home.

erm I dunno where you are likeley to read this first since you have posted on uol aswell anyway


heres my answer from there

probabaly because they are not on AOL.

Its unlikely that the ISP they use relay the SMTP request from their network/servers to the SMTP servers at AOL, as its liekley or open to spam.

Because your internet goes through your ISPs network typically you almost actually do not access the ineternet when accessing your emails from an email client since it hits their public servers before elsewhere.

However since your on another ISP they will have to recieve your request and then relay and fwd it on to the otehr ISP .. which I doubt they will do

Your best bet is to open email using http client which they offer on their home page
