Hello Mike,
are you using windows firewall or any antivirus software? Please check if either of these isn’t blocking the connection by temporarily turning them off or making an exception for eM Client inside of them.

With no apparent changes to my setup to cause this problem, it has now gone away without any changes to fix it!

Problem gone.

Thanks.
