Experiencing issues since upgrade to TB 78.2.2 (32 bit) about 5 days ago.

Toad-Hall had a successful fix for sending of message failed issue that required changing in Config Editor the TLS version. That enabled me to receive messages, but I get the following error when I try to send:

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.glbb.jp timed out. Try again.

My web mail works correctly -- the issue is that TB on my laptop times out when attempting to send email

Appreciate any help to get this latest TB issue fixed.

I think I have solved my issue, after talking again with my ISP (GLBB in Okinawa)

on outgoing smtp.glbb.jp server, changed port to 465 (from 587) Changed Configuration security to SSL/TLS (from STARTTLS)

Good-To-Go now
