Hi Guys,

I'm new to using Windows Live Mail with my new domain. I am getting the following error message when sending mail.

Can you help?

The message could not be sent. The setting for your outgoing email [SMTP] server might need to be configured. To find the server settings for '[email protected]', please contact your email service provider.

Subject 'test'

Server Response: 550 Relaying denied - This server requires Authentication
Server: 'smtp.freeolamail.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC79
Protocol: SMTP

You appear to be trying to send email on you Yahoo account via our SMTP servers, this is known as relaying and is now allowed. To use our servers you must be using our email services. To send via your Yahoo account you would need to use Yahoo's SMTP server.

I've changed your email address so it's not picked up by spammers and move this thread to the correct section

Hi and welcome to the forums Arossi...

Your post is actually in the wrong thread, but never mind :¬)

If you are using a Freeola account then I assume that you have read this guide:

Windows Live Mail

Also, have you checked that you have selected 'Server Requires Authentication' option in your e-mail program's SMTP settings.
