Earthlink and Vista-mail problems

Anyone out there using Earthlink and Vista that can successfully send email?
I can receive but not send, regardless of wether I use Elink's Mailbox or
Window's Mail. This is a new PC that came with Vista installed, when I
downloaded Earthlink I used the download for Vista. I have already tried all
the things in various "help" sites and none have helped. When I try to send
mail I get the following error message....

The message could not be sent. The authentication might not be correct for
your outgoing mail (SMTP) server.

The rejected email address was (whoever I used). Acct:'pop.mindspring.com',
Server:smtpauth.earthlink.net', Protocol:SMTP, Server Response:'550 Please
configure you mail client to use authentication', Port:25, Secure(SSL):No.



Has anyone been able to solve this problem between Vista and Earthlink?
