Over the 4th of July weekend my email stopped working. I'm using the Apple mail app on an iMac trying to connect to yahoo. Incoming email using IMAP works just find. Outgoing email using SMTP does not connect and says there is an authorization issue.
I know the settings work. When I fire up a VPN connection outside of the Frontier network (Seattle, Miami or Chicago), SMTP goes green in the Connection Doctor and the Apple mail app connects.
I've come to the conclusion something in the Frontier network has changed. After working with Frontier tech support, they came up with nothing and kept repeating port 465 is not blocked.
I'm now using the VPN 100% of the time, so I can have outgoing emails. Anybody else have this issue?
TIA
