The upside is that if you can suddenly send/rcv then you know that is whats been stopping you so you can check their settings to resolve - and you would be surprised just how often a firewall or antivirus stops any mail comming or going.
really tho, i dont think thats the problem here. personally i think its gotta be that extra smtp in smtp.smtp.ntlworld.com
No idea how it got there, but removing and recreating the account should fix it
