here is the error message i am getting. email was working fine until earlier
today?
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

Response: '553 Invalid address syntax', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server
Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

I am having the same problems for the past two days. I can receive email but
not send them. Everything was working fine until yesterday!
The message I get is as follow:

anyone?

You do not have the SAME error as the original posted so you should open
your own thread. These two errors are not identical: YOURS: "The
rejected e-mail address was '. Subject 'test', Account:
'mail.odbasia.com', Server: 'mail.odbasia.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server
Response: '550 No such user here', Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79"
THEIRS: The rejected e-mail address was

[Errors when replying to ads?]'. Subject 'furniture', Account:
'pop.suddenlink.net', Server: 'smtp.suddenlink.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server
Response: '553 Invalid address syntax', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server
Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

In YOUR case - it says "there is no such user" - verify the email address
and that they have not closed the account.

Were you trying to "Reply" to an email from this address? It looks like one
of those e-addresses that cannot be used for "reply" - it usually says
something to that effect in the email you receive from them. All of this:
[Errors when replying to ads?]'
- is being shown as the email address (notice it is all within a pair of
'single quotes' in the error message). It should be fairly obvious to you
that " [Errors when replying to ads?]" is not usually seen in email
addresses. I doubt that removing that part would make it work either. But
the mentioned "syntax" error has to do with the fact that the entire string
as such contains a space, brackets, and a special character, that are not
allowed in normal email addressing.
