I have lost ability to send email from my firefox. I have checked my IMAP and SMTP settings for earthlink and they are correct Firefox says IMAP and SMTP servers have disconnected I checked with earthlink and the codes I typed in for earthlink on the firefox settings is correct. I can receive email but I can't send out my emails from firefox. I reviewed all the help comments from others who have lost the ability to send but non of those seem to address my problem. I'm on the verge of dumping firefox and having mindspring deliver to me direct Thanks Robin Foorman robfoor@mindspring.com

Firefox is a web browser, Thunderbird is an email client. I will proceed as you simly placing the wrong name for Thunderbird.

For us to have any chance of helping you, you will need to post the actual error messages you receive when you try and send mail. We only know what you tell us.
