Hi all.

I've just arrived in France for a week and realise that I can't send emails!

I recieve okay, but when trying to send I get this message;

 

Sending of the message failed.
The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com timed out. Try again.

 

All my settings are the same as they've always been .......................... any thoughts?

I'm on Win 10, I use Mozilla Thunderbird and use gmail.

Thanks in advance,

 

Slime.
