Unable to email books from Connect/Share

[Seth H]

Using Connect/Share and then email I am unable to successfully email books. I have tried several different books and both an iCloud and a gmail address. The job runs for 25 minutes then produces the following error:

Starting job: Email The Midnight Lock to -@icloud.com
Sending timed out
Job: "Email The Midnight Lock to -@icloud.com" failed with error:

Am running Calibre 5.34 and Mac OS 12.0.1

For privacy I have amended my email address. Any help would be appreciated.
