Mail not sending MacBook Pro

Hi,

After an internet outage for half a day now have a problem with Mail.

I can receive mail, but can't send emails anymore. They sit in the outbox.


Can send emails via iPhone and iPad and webmail just not in Mail.


Thank you

Sharon

Hi,


thank you you for your reply

After following the instructions when I select preferences, server settings, The outgoing mail server account is “BigPond (offline)”. I changed it to the other option “smtp,Telstra.com” but it changes back automatically.
