Did you configure the outgoing mail server settings in Thunderbird? 
Is it configured correctly for your ISP? If you are using another 
outgoing mail server besides your ISPs, it can get complicated, 
because a lot of ISPs block outgoing port 25 connections, so you 
have to use the SSL option, if the mail server you are trying to 
connect to supports it.
