Can't send email with Thunderbird while Norton VPN is turned on

I am sending and receiving mail with Thunderbird. I can get mail OK, but when I try to send it, I have to turn my VPN off. I am reporting this issue to the Xfinity forum and the Norton forum. This should not be happening.

VPN's have lots of legitimate uses, but they are also a magnet for spammers and scammers whose activities "poison" the VPN's IPs. Sending email using a VPN is likely to always be iffy.
