Hi, I've been having this issue with mac mail for several days.  It tells me the smtp server is offline and continually asks for my password.  My password has not changed, it worked fine 3 days ago.  I've tried logging into Cox web mail and I can receive and send mail with no problem.  I also set up Thunderbird mail on a linux computer and get the same results.  I can receive mail without problem, but when I try to send email it tells me my password is incorrect and will not send.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dan
