sending mail

[Monica Squires]

I am a new outlook user, and I have set both of my current e-mail accounts to
pool into Outlook. One is an adelphia webmail account, the other is a
FirstClass account. I am not having any trouble receiving mail, but I cannot
send mail. Perhaps one out of every 10 messages I send actually reaces the
intended reciepent, I get the floowing message every time:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

Subject: ...
Sent: 5/3/2006 12:30 PM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

'address' on 5/3/2006 12:30 PM
550 5.7.1 <address>... Relaying denied. Proper authentication
required.

I have tried set up the password to be protected during authentication, but
then it again refuses to send saying something about the authentication not
being supported..... HELP!

You need to make sure you use the SMTP (outgoing mail) server that's on the
network you're using (Adelphia?)

hate to sound dumb, but how does one do that? I am trying to send mail
through both my adelphia account and or my firstclass account, and i have
them set up as POP3 things...........

When you setup the accounts what did you use as the SMTP (outgoing mail)
server name?

 

[Monica Squires]

I used the names that were given to me by my service providers. Firstclass
gave me an address thing, and so did adelphia. I also tried enabling SSL
encryption and such. It is so odd, it finds the servers, but will not me
send any mail......... grrrr, this is really annoying. It worked for like an
hour right after I set it up, but I didnt change anything and it ceased to
work...........
