I have two outgoing email servers: Optomum (NY) and TWC (North Carolina). In North Carolina TWC worked perfect. Now I am in NY and changed the default setting for the outgoing server to Optomum. This is the error message I get, “Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server mail.twc.com timed out. Try again…” At first I thought that a change to the default outgoing server would not take effect until Thunderbird was shut down and restarted. That was not the case. Then I thought to reboot computer. Still NG. Although Optimum is set as default, Thunderbird still wants to send through TWC. Need fix.

I think you mis understand the default. It is usaed when the one assigned to the account can not be determined.

Tools menu (alt+T) account settings > select the account name and change to the appropriate SMTP server in the drop down list.
