I've been using UVerse for years, and use the outgoing server "outbound.att.net" pretty consistently. In the last couple of weeks, when I send an e-mail (Thunderbird), I've started regularly getting an error message -- "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) outbound.att.net timed out. Try again."
So I try again. Sometimes two or three times. Finally it sends. What the !@#$%^&*( is going on? This is a real annoyance.
