Have just set up my TPG email account on Outlook 2019. I seem to be receiving messages ok but the outgoing messages do not work - I keep getting an error message saying “connection to the server was interrupted. If problem continues, contact your server admin or ISP”. I have used the Pop account settings I.e. mail.tpg.com.au for both the incoming and outgoing mail (ports 110 and 25 but no matter what I try, I keep getting the same error message. Can anyone help resolve the issue for me - in simple and easy to follow terms.

Hi BasilDV
Thanks for your suggestions but the internet has not dropped out nor do the firewalls appear to be the problem. I have been receiving emails since setting up Outlook 2019 and have now been testing the outgoing emails off and on for 3 days - the common practice seems to be that the emails sit in the outbox for up to 2 hours and then magically they are sent.
I went back into the settings menu just now through the repair option and am now getting a message "Could not connect to the outgoing SMTP server. Please check settings and try again" The outgoing settings appear to be correct i.e.mail.tpg.com.au - port 25 and the box "my outgoing SMTP server requires authentication - use same settings as my incoing mail server" is ticked - incoming mail server is mail.tpg.com.au - port 110.
Would really appreciate help to resolve this issue quickly.
Thanks
