Easy. The email server in question is associated with a certain Mail
account that is named. The Connection Doctor window shows the status of
each Mail account. Accounts that are failing will have a red status
indicator in the left column. So he can exclude any account that
is not the account having problems, and he can look at the Details
column next to the account in question to see what the problem is.
Common sense works wonders! ; )
