[tor-talk] TorBirdy seems to connect to the same exit node again and again

[Sophie Hassfurther <sophie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear TorBirdies!

I love TorBirdy.

That said, I have an odd problem using TorBirdy with Thunderbird. Since
yesterday, Thursday 9th, around 9am (that is daylight saving time +1h)
TorBirdy/Thunderbird shows some strange behaviour. Sometimes it just
works, but often I keep getting the same alert when trying to send emails:

"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.7.1
Service unavailable; client (176.108.160.214) blocked using
mail.badip.de Please check the message recipient xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and try again."

So what I find strange, is that since two days TorBirdy seems to connect
to the same exit node whenever I login. When I check the Tor Browser
though, it says I am connected to Tor, showing a different (!) IP address.

I am not a very technical person, so maybe this is all expected
behavior, but I thought I'll ask. I hope this doesn't make me look like
an idiot

Below is the Thunderbird troubleshooting info, I have crossed out my in-
and outgoing server, as well as the (deactivated) plugins.

Thanks in advance
Sophie
