Email not responding

[vforest]

On 11-10-09, my email was working fine and then in the afternoon it said that my password was rejected and that the system could not communicate with the email servers.  I contacted Verizon via CHAT and they the email started working again.

On 11-12-09 when I returned home from work I started getting the same error message.  The email worked fine this morning and now nothing.

Does anyone have an idea what the problem is?  I am guessing that it is with Verizon.

If you are logging onto the verizon.net page, the website is having issues. there is a post about it over on the fios section

Thanks.  Yep, my incoming email OK but outgoing not OK.  I presumed it was a server issue at Verizon.

Well, still out and an Outlook TEST email reports:

Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

(Note, I have changed my outgoing port to 587 a long time ago and it has been working fine)

Guess I'll just wait and see if the presumed server issue gets resolved later in the day.

OK, just came back online at 9:30 P.M.  Outgoing mail back working!
