Could not connect to this SMTP server

Hi,

See image - Able to connect to some SMTP, but not others - When I do a restart, the mail will send, but then goes offline again after a couple of minutes - v weird, but any ideas? I have checked with the mail hosting provider, and they see no issues. Many thanks

Apple Mail suddenly cannot send mail Suddenly Apple mail took all my SMTP servers for outgoing mail offline and won't turn them back on. I can receive mail on all these same servers. This isn't just icloud, but other servers as well (gmail, etc) I fired up Spark and can send the same emails just fine. I closed and reopened Apple Mail but the problem persists. Anyone have any ideas?

Additional outgoing mail servers can be configured for mail accounts in Settings>Accounts .” I'm completely lost. This just happened out of the blue and I do not know how to fix it. I try and follow the prompts, but everything looks normal to me. What do I need to do? Thank you in advance.
