Sending emails from home failed

Hi, I tried sending emails from 3 devices last night through my VM wifi. they got stopped from each device saying there was a wrong username/password. Checked these out and ok. Got to work this morning and messages sent with no issue. Something in VM wifi is stopping me sending them out. Any ideas.

TIA.

It would be helpful to see what, if any, error code is returned by the SMTP server in this situation. Open a Command Shell window and enter the following where username:password is replaced with your email address and password, i.e. richard.branson@virginmedia.com:Y54kpX5g:

curl -v smtps://smtp.virginmedia.com -u username:password

Do not post the resulting output here but instead review it for possible reported causes and then post just the redacted part here or the VM error code.
