Question

For some reason about 3 weeks ago (maybe after an update) LR classic stopped being able to email photos using my hotmail account. My hotmail account is still active and  the  LR Email Account Manager still showed the account as validated but emails failed to send. 

I have now refreshed the Account Manager by deleting the hotmail account and re-adding it but now LR wont validate my hotmail account and the three suggested faults for this do not seem to apply. Anyone else suffering like me or have a possible solution

I've seen a number of recent complaints about LrC's email. I take it you are using an email client on your MAC. If so, check the account settings in that client. Sometimes there's a missing setting around security. Here's a link to the Hotmail server settings that may also help https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/pop-imap-and-smtp-settings-8361e398-8af4-4e97-b147-6c6c4ac95353

Thanks for the advice. I have checked this but as said the correct settings were being applied as evidenced by the fact that I was able to use hotmail to send photos through LR on my Mac up until about three weeks ago. The only thing I've done to LR is update  LR a few weeks ago and up date Topaz plug-ins for Denoise and  Giga pixal.

You don't seem to be the first with this problem.

Here's a link on how to submit a bug report to Adobe.
