"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 '*******@eircom.net'. Subject 'nothing', Account: 'mail2.eircom.net', Server: 'mail2.eircom.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '451 http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=78.16.75.236', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 451, Error Number: 0x800CCC79"

See http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=55604997

You'll get this message from eircom's server if you try to send mail through it while connected to an ISP other than eircom.net. You *should* be using the SMTP server of the ISP you are currently connected to.
