In my case I found that when I went into the configuration dialog of the=20 SMTP transport, switched to the second tab with advanced configuration and= =20 clicked on auto-detect configuration again, that it changed the SMTP port=20 to 587. I think it was 465 before. Then sending of the mail worked. Not sure whether the provider changed the port =E2=80=93 I was not notified= , so I=20 doubt it =E2=80=93 or whether KMail / Akonadi SMTP transport changed behavi= or. I do not know whether your issue has the same cause, but it might be worth= =20 a try. Best, =2D-=20 Martin - please no carbon copy to me
