Very interesting. I own the domain texasconcretebusters.com. I downloaded Thunderbird (latest version) to use as my email client. I have 2 accounts - info@ and bhallman@. I cannot send from one to the other. I can send to & receive from other domains just fine.

The sent boxes contain the emails but they never seem to leave Thunderbird. I deleted both email addresses from the address book and collected addresses and that didn't help. I contacted my host and used their webmail service and it worked just fine.

Anyone have any ideas before I uninstall/re-install the application and have to setup all my mailboxes again?

Thanks in advance!

Complete waste of time in 99% of cases. There is an idea.

Is Thunderbird connecting to the SMTP server? (The send dialog tells you when it is connecting sending etc.) Is there a transmission error?

If the answer is No, then the message is being transmitted to the SMTP server and you need to ask the host to tell you where it goes from there.
