it sounds like the outgoing mail port settings aren't correct. What type of mail account do you have? gmail, etc

I have actts with gmail and yahoo. They work fine if I log into Safari, but not when using the eagle mail icon. i should add that I can read the mails fine, just can't send.

I have a Yahoo account due to having bellsouth.net email address. Anytime i have to set it up on a new device it takes forever to find the correct settings. This last time i was getting messages but couldn't send.
I would suggest you search to see if the port settings may have been changed by your provider.
