    email question

    My daughter cannot receive emails through her windows mail server. The are returned with this message: from me would appreciate any help. I have checked every thing I know to



    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 'purple 771@verizon.net'. Subject 'test', Account: 'incoming.yahoo.verizon.net', Server: 'outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '501 Syntax error in arguments', Port: 587, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 501, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
