Hey all, does anyone else have this issue where you try and send an email through thunderbird, and thunderbird tells you that the server is refusing connections and the message failed to send... but it did actually send. So, thunderbird tells you it failed, when it didnt? It's annoying lol.

Server is set to mail.nozonenet.com
SSL on, ports 995 to recieve 465 to send
I don't have this issue with Gmail, only my "steadfast" emails. So i'm thinking its a problem with steadfast? Any ideas?

This is sometimes a problem with using SSL for SMTP, often when you send using attachments. You may have better luck with non-SSL SMTP. Not sure if this is a qmail/stunnel bug or a Thunderbird bug.

hmm, I tried sending an email without SSL enabled, just to one of my emails, and thunderbird says it failed to send, and it did actually fail this time. So, I can't send without SSL :confused:

That could be caused by the fact your ISP doesn't let you send on port 25 by default. Try using port 587 for non-SSL to avoid any ISP blocks.
