I can not currently send email from my btinternet.com email or any of the sub accounts all the ports and settings look fine and I can send from the yahoo log on page and the btmail page however I get the same error message every time The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.mail.yahoo.com was lost in the middle of the transaction. Try again I am receiving emails fine I have tried turning my firewall off completely and following all the trouble shooting for McAfee and non of the issues or add ons exist on my email I have tried using the recommended 2 outgoing ports of 465 and 587 - 465 will not even connect to the server and 587 produces the above error message
