When I send an email, I get a response of: "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: stray newline detected. see http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html. Please check the message and try again." I contacted my ISP and they said it was a Thunderbird update that caused this. Any way for me to make it so that I can send an email? No problem receiving them. I have a workaround using my ISP to send them at this time, but I would rather just use Thunderbird. They also said I could use a different Email program, but Thunderbird is so easy to navigate. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
