Tools | Accounts | Mail Account | Properties,

In the Servers Tab, check: My server requires authentication.

In the Advanced Tab, change the SMTP port from 25 to 587.

I haven't been able to send emails for months. My internet provider
and
router has been checked and everything is ok on those ends.

Here is my error message and it is the same for anyone I try to send
to.

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 '. Subject
'test',
Account: 'pop-server.neo.rr.com (1)', Server:
'smtp-server.neo.rr.com',
Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '530 Authentication is required
before
sending [R0107005]', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 530,
