I installed Outlook and Thunderbird on the systems in my office, and for some days they worked fine. Suddenly, there are no longer downloading emails, keep saying they can't connect to the server. Any tips?

And to get it straight, I installed either Outlook or Thunderbird depending on each user's preference.

I would verify the email account configuration. Sounds like the server information is entered incorrectly.

Sometimes Outlook and Thunderbird do not play nice together. Both want to be the default mail program. I only use TB so I made that my default but if I wan to use Outlook, I temporarily make it the default.

Give this a try and if it works the.

Also you might want to try the
Mozilla Thunderbird forum,
if the solution I gave you does not work I am sure you will be able to find a solution there.

The email settings are all accurate. I don't understand at all. And like I indicated earlier, I don't use Outlook and Thunderbird on one system. They are all on different systems.

If it's happening with different email clients on different computers, then I would say it's a network problem. Are you running your own email server?

No. I am trying to connect to 206.51.231.44. If you wish, I could setup an email account for you

(done it already, test@iisys-ng.com, password is password). You want to try it out?
