Steps to reproduce:

Hi, since version 5.0 there has been a problem sending email, receiving is ok. 
A search on the internet leads me to beleive i'm not the only one. 
Last working version was 3.1.12 anything after doesn't work including version 6.0 + 6.1 

Problem is as follows: Thunderbird connects to the smtp server says connected, so connectivity is not an issue, then fails without a reason. Reinstalling 3.1.12 fixes the problem so it's an issue with the client. 
The server is our own work server hosted on a dedicated server, no other clients have this problem( Outlook, iPhone, Nokia Mobile Email) so it's not from the server. 

I hope you manage to fix this as our company always relied on your products but seems this has to change as 3 releases after still no fix. 

Thanks


Actual results:

Failed without reason


Expected results:

Mail should have sent normally

thats a failed sent email, with thunderbird stating timed out
One thing I need to add also, is that from 30 emails, one of them managed to send so it's not completely unsendable

This is a log of successfully sent mail using version 3.1.12
Thunderbird gets no response from the server after the EHLO command.
Do you have AV software or third party firewalls installed that could cause this ?
It would be better if you attach the complete logs as file.

Did you try to "play" with the security settings in Tools/Account settings/Outgoing Server/Server->Edit ?

not at all, both logs, the successful and unsuccessful one were sent from the SAME PC, not firewalled, and same thunderbird settings: process was as follows

Install thunderbird 3.1.12 -> try send successful
Upgrade to 6.1 -> try send unsuccessful 19 times out of 20
Install back 3.1.12 over 6.1 -> try send successful
sentix, are you still seeing this when using newer version?

> sentix, are you still seeing this when using newer version?

Yes I just tested, still happens with version 11. We use this at work and because of this problem we still have around 50 employees working with version 3 as that's the last version which doesn't cause problems
Working condition is bit different it doesn't use STARTTLS, so I recomend to disable it and try again on 11 version. Also can you confirm do you have any AV installed on this machine? Because some outdate version antiviures can cause problem with starttls.

will get back to you shortly
Flags: needinfo?(sentix001)
seems sorted though emails take quite a lot to go out
10 secs to 15 s

Yes i have a NOD32 updated latest version but i also disabled it for the test

It's been a long time - I'm hoping you no longer see this.
Which in any event doesn't sound like a problem caused by Thunderbird
