My main user account recently started having the problem of not sending email (I can, however, receive). When logged as Admin, I can send. Can this be resolved by purging or deleting a preference file?
(We have tried Disk Utility, setting up new user accounts in Mail.app, etc., to no avail).
Suggestions appreciated!
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), otherwise, works fine
I think I should have posted this under 'Mavericks' - in any event, I find that I can send under other logins on the same computer, so I guess it's related to a preferences corruption or conflict. How and what can I reset?
What does Mail/Window/Connection Doctor Show? If the server is red, select it and look at the Show Details box.
Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages
What exactly happened when you took all the applicable steps in the support article?
Connection doctor indicates that POP connects (receiving email just fine); SMTP experiences a username or password error. I tried typing the data (fail) - I also tried copy-and-paste from ISP-provided settings, nothing works (keeping mind that the same account works fine under Admin login).

If this is a corrupt file issue, how do I find it?
