A 554 error is an error report from the mail server accepting the SMTP
(outgoing) mail. If you include the exact message (but be sure to mask any
real mail addresses), we may be able to tell you what's wrong.

554 is a generic error so its hard to say what the problem is. I'd recommend
adding your acct to the outlook profile again and get the settings from
your providers website - don't copy them from the current acct settings.
Also, if you use an antivirus product that scans email, disable the outbound
scanning.

A 554 error commonly means that you need to set up authentication in your account properties.

On the Outgoing Server tab, "My outgoing server requires authentication" and check the box below to use the same credentials.
