Suddenly Apple mail took all my SMTP servers for outgoing mail offline and won't turn them back on. I can receive mail on all these same servers. This isn't just icloud, but other servers as well (gmail, etc)
I fired up Spark and can send the same emails just fine. I closed and reopened Apple Mail but the problem persists.
Anyone have any ideas?

If you can't send emails in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
I see no issue on the server side: Apple - Support - System Status

For problem accounts the go to way to sort things out is to delete the account(s) from the Mail.app, then add it back.
Remove email accounts in Mail on Mac
Remove email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Add email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Add email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Note—
IMAP accounts stay on the server, so no local loss, when you re-sync
POP accounts download and remove from the server—therefor save your inbox/sent box if you want them
“On My Mac" is just that, local folders you created and moved mail into. So no loss
It isn't the apple servers, cause I can send on icloud with a different email program. It is Apple Mail with ALL servers.
So, THIS Is WEIRD. Come back later with no changes and it works and sends, and then another day, it fails to send.
Apple Mail suddenly cannot send mail
