554 <>: Recipient address rejected: Access denied

[Guest]

I have 4 e-mail accounts all configured in Outlook 2002, all been working
without problems unitl Sat when I started getting this error message ONLY
when sending e-mail. I can recieve fine:

554 <>: Recipient address rejected: Access denied

I've changed nothing, I contacted my ISP who assures me nothing wrong at
their end. Logging onto my ISP home page and then e-mail account I can send
e-mail OK.

I'm at a real loss as to what to do next or who to call next. Is it
something wrong/corrupted on my system or is it down to someone else, my ISP
or e-mail account hosts or Micorsoft?

Please please, any help most welcome,

TIA
Ian.

If this were happening to me, I'd enable diagnostic logging and see that's
going on.

Brian,

Thanks for the information, handy info to know. Just to update, in
desperation I phoned Microsoft helpline and when I described my symptoms they
immediately asked if I was with a particular ISP. This was my ISP and they
told me they'd had a number of calls relating to this same error message all
from the same ISP, even though the ISP had told me nothing was wrong when I
spoke to them. The MS people told me to shutdown my broadband connection and
PC and leave it for a few hours. I've come back and powered everything back
and....touch wood......all seems back to normal. Big shout for Microsoft tech
support.

Thanks for your help,
Ian.
