Sending of message failed -- please verify that your account settings are correct.
I have had Thunderbird set up and working for years with multiple accounts. Suddenly today I can't send any messages from ANY of my accounts with multiple email hosts. The message I get from each of them is:
Sending of message failed. Please verify that your Mail & Newsgroups account settings are correct and try again.
I have verified my settings. The look set up the same way they always do. I can send email with those same settings from my phone (K9 Mail program on Android.)
All my accounts can receive mail in Thunderbird. I get new messages and I can read them.
If I try to save a message as a draft over IMAP I get the error:
Unable to save your message as a draft. Please verify that your Mail & Newsgroups account settings are correct and try again.
What could have possibly changed to make Thunderbird exhibit this behavior? I tried downgrading thunderbird to the previous version and it still exhibited the same behavior. I tried running in safe mode without any extensions and it still exhibited the same behavior. Here is my troubleshooting information:

The problem was that my /tmp directory was not mounted. I'm not sure why it wasn't mounted, but rebooting fixed the mount.
Thunderbird was getting IO errors when trying to create temporary files. The error messages were misleading making me think it had to do with mail accounts.

I have the same problem. How do you mount a temp directory in Win XP?
