You should have started a new message and the full text of the error
message would be helpful. That includes the server name, server type,
port number, socket error code, SSL, etc. For best results, copy/paste
the error message rather than retyping it. You should be able to
highlight the message text in the error window (hold down the left mouse
button while dragging the mouse over the text). Then press Ctrl-C (hold
down the Ctrl key while pressing the C key) to copy the highlighted text
to the Windows clipboard. You can then paste that text into the problem
description using the Ctrl-V key combination.

Although you are getting the same error code, the specific details may
indicate a somewhat different cause.

Basically the SMTP mail server is saying that you are not authorized to
use it.

Is this a server that you have been using OK?

Are you connecting to the Internet via the same ISP as when you were
able to use the server OK?

I creat the same account and be able to send/receive with OE 6.0 in
another
home PC connecting to another ADSL service.

When I telnet omail.hcm.fpt.vn 25 the result in my laptop is:

I creat the same account in Microsoft Outlook installed in laptop but

I can send and receive with different email account (different
outgoing and
incoming server) by OE or MO.

Please give me an instruction how to solve. I need to use OE for
send/receive email by the above email account. Thank you very much
for your
