Please describe in detail what happened when you took all the applicable steps in the support article. That's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem.
I tried the cnnection doctor and that showed all all green. It just wont send or recive although as I say I can use mail via my iPhone without an issue. Nothing happens, I dont get an error messages at all just nothing happens.
On the activity window it shows its trying to connect etc but nothing happens
From the Mail menu bar, select
Window ▹ Connection Doctor
Click the Show Detail button. A drawer opens. Try to send a message and post the text that appears. Anonymize any personal information before posting.
Thanks please see below where you see XXXXXXXXXXXXX is where I have anonymised email addressess
Cheers

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.
This fix has done the trick, Mail now working as normal. Thanks ever so much for all your help 🙂🙂
