Outlook email via VPN not working this morning

[#1]

Yes, smtp authorisation has been set to yes using same settings as incoming email.

[#2]

Yes, there are some connection oddities.

I mentioned the new NordVPN servers and the first one in the list not working with Outlook.

Well none of those new ones work with Amazon.  Just Amazon.

Why is this ?

I have to change to another server if I want to connect to Amazon ...

This I've explained to NordVPN and I'm still waiting for a reply.

Does anyone at Plusnet have any idea ?

Switching off Cybersec can sometimes help with problems connecting to some websites.

[#4]

I don't have it on - It prevents Skype working ... (unless that has been fixed since I last tried it)

Hi @irritablegit,

will it allow you to send emails via our webmail service?

For me, yes,. this seems to work as a workaround but it's a pain.

Webmail probably works, so that's not the issue.  (I don't use webmail anyway)

Outlook works, provided I don't use the NordVPN servers which have a problem with Outlook+Plusnet ... which is most of them !

The servers I've been on have started to work with sending mail via Outlook now.
