Re: Windows Mail can receive mail but cannot send mail

[Forwarded to Vista Mail newsgroup via crosspost]

Are you connected to the internet via eircom.net when you're sending? Have
you ever been able to Send mail from your name@eircom.net account in Windows
Mail?

That error message typically happens when sending from an Internet
connection other than the one to which the SMTP server belongs (eircom.net).
