Can't send email in Apple Mail after Mojave Upgrade (not clean install) from High Sierra. It was working fine but recently quit sending except with Gmail.
Tried this:
Connection Doctor results seem good:
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Drew

Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?
Could it be along these lines...
Mac's Mail App is not as modern as iOS's Mail app, Many eMail providers now require a separate App Password different from your eMail password…

Yahoo has gone to this too...

Generate and manage third-party app passwords
Some older, third-party email apps (that do not use our Yahoo branded sign in page) require you to enter a single password for login credentials. To access your Yahoo Mail account on these apps, you'll need to generate and use an app password. An app password is a long, randomly generated code that gives a non-Yahoo app permission to access your Yahoo account. You’ll only need to provide this code once to sign in to your third-party email app.

Hi,
Not running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps. Gmail is the only server one that can send mail. Don't use AOL or Yahoo. Mac's Mail on Mojave needs a password?
Thanks!
Yes, gMail on Mac needs an extra password.
