Using my uk2.net or another STMP, I get an "SMTP timed out..." error if and only if I am replying to a message, and it includes the original, quoted text.

If I use other SMTPs it's fine (e.g. my ISP's or using smtp.googlemail.com )

If I do a new message, or if I remove the original text, it sends fine !

Please help ! I spent a long time to uncover this, as it is so odd. I know there should be no difference, I've tried running TB in Safe Mode (no add-ons) and disabling ZoneAlarm AV, no change.

Please help !

Try to start Windows in safe mode with networking enabled. - Win10 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/change-startup-settings-in-windows-10#v1h=tab01 - Win8 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode - Win7 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

Still in Windows safe mode, start Thunderbird in safe mode. - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode

Does the problem go away?
