Mr. Forklift

I am getting the following error. Can't find solution. Your help would be much
appreciate. Thanks.

The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be
correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this
problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the
"I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining
the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.

The rejected e-mail address was '(e-mail address removed)'. Subject 'meeting',
Account: 'pop3.live.com', Server: 'smtp.live.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server
Response: '530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first', Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 530, Error Number: 0x800CCC78


Subject '', Account: 'pop3.live.com', Server: 'smtp.live.com', Protocol:

Your errors are suggesting a "live.com" account (although you emailed from a
Yahoo account) . . . . .



Live.com account settings are:


Server names and ports:
POP3 = pop3.live.com Port = 995
SMTP = smtp.live.com Port = 587

Checkboxes you need to check include:

Server Tab: "My server requires authentication" (Click "Settings" button
also and fill in "Log on Using" email address - *** but do NOT check the
checkboxes there . . . .)

Advanced Tab: BOTH outgoing and incoming - "This server requires a secure
connection (SSL)"

General Tab (if desired but generally recommended): "Include this account
when receiving mail or synchronizing"

Should work - if you get errors post the entire error message (cut-n-paste)
for further assistance.
