CANNOT SEND EMAIL!!!

[Darin]

I use Windows XP Pro w/SP2, Norton Personal Firewall 2005, Outlook 2003, and
I have the paid Yahoo! POP3 email forwarding, that I have been using for
years! All the sudden this message pops up and I can only receive, not send
email, PLEASE HELP!:

Task 'Yahoo - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC78) : 'Unable to send the
message. Please verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The
server responded: 530 authentication required - for help go to
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-11.html'

Did you check the URL you posted? It's got info regarding that message in
regards to SMTP authentication. Maybe you need to double check the settings
in your account:

Thank you, but I already did. All my settings are correct, and it can even
send an email when you do the "test account settings" part. Any other
ideas?!

I had to check the box that my server requires authentication. This occurred
for me after applying some MS patches.
