I don't use my BTinternet email addresses very often for sending email
mainly just incoming, but lately when I have tried to send an email it
just sits in the Messenger outgoing queue?

I have had issues recently with port number and I have changed them and
email can be sent again but this time it doesn't matter what port number
I use email still stays in the queue.

The port numbers I have been using are 110,995,143,993,465 all to no
avail.

I am using Messenger Pro 8.05wpb1 (23-Aug-2021)

Hermes 5.56.01 (21 Oct 2022)

Netfetch 5.56 (1st May, 2024)

At the moment my setup is: SMTP mail.btinternet.com, Port 995, SSL
usually 465

Assuming it is actually a Port number problem as it usually is?

My question is what is the current port number please to use with
Btinternet I am now on Port 995?

Many thanks for any information gratefully received.

Stephen
