Since buying a Flashrouter and using NORDVPN, I can't get my emails to go out. It will not connect to he smtp server. It tries, but just times out. Thoughts?

What is it with VPN's. On the whole US residents can not use their ISP provided email to send messages. This is because some ISP's refuse to allow you to send mail unless you access the internet from their service and the VPN makes it look like you did not.

Please say it is not your ISP email you are asking about.

I am trying to use Thunderbird. Have found a solution, by using a specific server.
