Suddenly and for no reason I am now getting the following message when trying to send an e-mail. "Sending of Message Failed" "The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMPT) mail.mchsi.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMPT connections. Verify that Outgoing server (SMTP) setting are correct."

I have been unable to identify any problem with my SMPT connections.
