Default Unable to send mail


This happened me a while back and I can't remember how it was resolved. I
cannot send mail since last night. I am using OE6 and have tried posting to
myself but to no avail. This is the message I get

"This is the AVG E-mail Scanner program.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned
below could not be delivered to one or more destinations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
: authentication required - Your email could not be
sent. To fix this you must make a simple change to your email (known as SMTP
authentication). For advice visit www.btyahoo.com/smtp or call 0800 328 9968
-------------------------------------------------------------------"

I have STMP authentication set up and I tried removing that and setting it
up as from fresh but nothing works. It's a joke that to try and get help via
phone, it will cost up to £12.50 and maybe that wouldn't even fix the
problem! Can anybody suggest anything. I am a photographer and I urgently
need to send of photos that I took yesterday. Thanks.

the problem might be with your mail-server
try again later and it may work.
also: you probably should setup some alternate email address
such as yahoo or gmail

it is not necessarily an OE problem...
as i stated before...it may be a problem with your ISP...
that's why i advised a web based mail service

Oh i just thought of something , as you said you are a photographer...
more than likely your ISP has a size limit as to how much
you can send... it's often as small as a meg or two.

more reasons to go with a web-based mail service...
with Yahoo mail you can send up to 10 megs or so

If he's *not* a professional, doing biz work. Yahoo addresses are
rather unprofessional.

Apparently with your last post you chose to close the discussion so
there's no point in me joining in to help. Okay, bye.
