when i test accout settings, there are no errors,
"find outgoing smtp server ... completed"
all others are completed, too.
so... I removed the account, shut down outlook,
re-opened and reconfigured the account
and the same error msg pops up
when I try to send something.

here's what I get:

550 relay errors in general occure when you are not authenticating
properly to your SMTP server. Check to make sure your SMTP server
dosent require an SSL connection or authentication of some nature.
Then make sure in the preferences for that account that the same
requirements are indicated.
