I'm getting the same thing and my situation is exactly the same. It worked earlier this morning, but this afternoon, it has gotten stuck on the loading phase before eventually the network times out. I'm guessing that there is a problem with the overall email system for hughesnet right now
It seems to be working OK now thanks
I've gotten word that within the past hour and a half, the issue has been resolved! Please let me know if the issue persists for anyone, and we can proceed from there! We appreciate your patience!
Thanks,

Thank you Remy, webmail and Thuinderbird were working ok until I attempted to send an email, the client (Thunderbird) asked for my password, I used the one stored and it failed to send, then I tried the password used to connect to the webmail client and neither worked. I'm not sure how or why these passwords are different and why I did this. I'm going to try and change my password if possible to make them the same
adding later
Sending of the message failed.
Failed due to unexpected error 80004005. No description is available.
The message could not be sent using Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.hughes.net for an unknown reason. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again.i made both passwords the same, but still getting this error, can someone verify the pop3 and smpt email servernames and ports for me?
Pete_Vit,
Thank you for letting us know! There are some settings that need to be changed, which should help resolve this issue. Here's the steps:
1. Open the Thunderbird Mail application, click on Tools at the top of the window and then select Account Settings (usually the second from the bottom on the menu). Once these steps are completed, click on Account Actions and then Add Mail Account.
2. Please fill in your name or email address for 'Your name'. You will then enter your Email Address and password and check the box for Remember Password. You can then click Continue. If you receive a green check, you can click done. If there is an error, continue to the next step.
3. If you encounter an error during automatic setup, click Configure Manually. Enter the information for server settings and ports (listed below) and then click Re-test. Thunderbird should verify the settings against the mail servers and you should be able to click done and then be able to use your mail.
Settings:
Incoming IMAP/Pop Server Setting: mail.hughes.net
Available Incoming IMAP Ports: 143 with security set to auto, 993 with security set to SSL
Available Incoming POP port: 110 with security set to auto, 995 with security set to SSL
SMTP Server Setting: email.hughes.net or smtp.hughes.net (they resolve to the same place)
Available Outbound SMTP ports: 587 with security set to TLS
Thanks,
Remy
thank you so much Remy I'll give that a shot, I changed my password, removed my account and re-added, incomming email worked but outgoing was still giving me an error with password, I know sometimes @work the passwords are cached and may take some time to sync. I'll try your great setup instructions and make sure I keep them !
Remy, getting email is working - sending is still asking for a password and still fails authentication
Login to server smtp.hughes.net with username cvitullo failed.
using STARTTLS and port 587. I've even tried my old password thinking the server is not getting my new password, still no go.
I don't want to remove and re-add my account because loading almost 90,000 old emails takes a lot of time and data, any other options?
Pete_Vit,
Please try removing and re-adding the account, and let me know if that makes a difference!
Thanks,
Remy
Not my first choice, but I'll try that later on tonight
anyone know a way to tell / configure TB not to download all inbox items?
update: I removed my account and perfomed these steps with no errors (green check)
1. Open the Thunderbird Mail application, click on Tools at the top of the window and then select Account Settings (usually the second from the bottom on the menu). Once these steps are completed, click on Account Actions and then Add Mail Account.
2. Please fill in your name or email address for 'Your name'. You will then enter your Email Address and password and check the box for Remember Password. You can then click Continue. If you receive a green check, you can click done.
loading all my inbox messages again, sending or forwarding a message still fails
Login to server smtp.hughes.net with username cvitullo failed

Try Account Settings. Is there a way to tell TB to download emails manually vs. automatically?
