Anyone else been having problems with Apple Mail.
Its been working fine for 12 months no issues then suddenly decided to stop sending, but still receives OK.
I have checked the smtp settings and they are definately correct, as they have always been.
As a test i set up Thunderbird, and that sends fine as does Outlook.

The message i get is cannot send mail using the server mail.xxx.co.uk (my own domain) check your smtp settings and or verify the message is addressed correctly, as is say the settings are 100% correct, (been using this mail for 16 years), just odd how other programs will send and mail wont, i have deleted the account and set it up again, same issue.
Any input would be appreciated

Try changing your master password from the mail server side. Also change it in Mail and save it to your keychain. Let's see if that works.

This would indicate that the problem was with your ISP, not you.
