All of a sudden I cannot download e-mail to Apple Mail 11.5 on my Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2012 - High Sierra 10.13.6. It fails to connect. It is not the server, since it is okay on my iMac. Any suggestions?

Troubleshooting Mac eMail:
Use of an App Password:
You may need to use a new app password. If you are using different devices, then you need one for each device. So, contact your eMail provider to find out how to get an App Password. For Example: As an example, for AOL Mail, Go Here: Create and Manage Third-Party App Passwords - AOL Help
I found the issue to be with my VPN connection. Suddenly, Mail will not connect while using my Nord VPN. I have been using this setup for three years with no problem, but all of a sudden it will not connect unless I disconnect VPN (it matters not where it is connected), close, and reopen Mail. Wierd.
