3.0 Update - Cannot Send Mail

[disRUPtors]

Folks, I am in need of some help. Prior to the 3.0 update, everything was working fine. Ever since the upgrade to 3.0 I have not been able to forward or send an email. I keep getting a cannot send mail message. message states that the connection to the outgoing server has failed. Any suggestions?

Mail app crashes when attempting to send email

A variation on a theme...
I tried to send a picture taken from my iPhone. Went through the normal method - took the picture, selected it, sent a email... Mail message appeared in the OUTBOX in email folder. Everytime the mail utility tried to transfer / send the contents of the OUTBOX folder the progress bar would show about 90% complete - then the MAIL application would crash. These would occur many times, before it finally cleared the OUTBOX.

Behind the scenes - mail was actually being transferred and the person I intended to send to got 8 copies of the email / picture.

Mail seems to be fine, as long as I'm reading and NOT sending....

Clearly this is a BUG - nothing in my environment changed accept for upgrading to version 3.0.

I'm looking for ideas and suggestions - Or concurrence if others have seen this problem.
