Cannot send e-mail. Keep getting error code 0x800CCC79. Tried changing the
port from 25 to 587 but received the same error. Checked that authentication
is required. Still a problem. HELP!

That's not the complete error message.
Right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.
The error number by itself is not very helpful.

Does this error only happen with that one specific recipient?
I tested that recipient's email address ([email protected])
and it does not exist.
