Adam,
I have tried all of those variations including mail.XXX.com:587, 
smtp.XXX.com:587 and restarting the machine between changes, 
unfortunately they have not worked. Originally mail.XXX.com worked 
for years before Verizon made the changes Monday. My email server is 
at my old ISP that we have used for years. A call to them revealed 
that mail.XXX.com is the proper syntax and if the email client needs 
port 587 then it resides with the client and the host isp.

On the windows side Eudora 7 and outlook express made the conversion 
fine but if tried thunderbird and it exhibits the same problem.

An interesting problem.

Maybe port 587 is blocked by the firewall on your client machine.
