Since I updated to LrC 11 last week I am unable to send emails from my Mac. Also no back-up is being offered when I close Lightroom down.

Lightroom Classic 11:1
Having previously not had any problem exporting my photos via email I now get "Failed to Send" ever since the update to version 11.1 a few months back. I'm on macOS Monterey.
I now can only export via my hard-drive. I have optimistically awaited this being solved in subsequent bug fixes....but to no avail.
Am I the only person in the Lightroom world suffering from this problem.......or am I doing/not doing something incredibly stupid/simple that gives me back my email function?
Please assist if you can....and in simple terms as I am an ageing self-taught technophobe!

@paul22729709kjbb Are you getting an error message, or what's happening?

To check your backup timing, please go to Lightroom menu > Catalog Settings and see what it's set to?
