Microsoft Office - Can anyone decipher?

Problems sending / receiving emails - following error pops up..

Task 'pop3.btinternet.com (1) - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC78) : 'Unable to send the message. Please verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The server responded: 530 authentication required - Your email could not be sent. To fix this you must make a simple change to your email (known as SMTP authentication).

    Why don't you follow the advice in the error message? You need to change the account settings so that it does authentication. i.e. something like Tools, accounts, properties, servers, My account requires authentication.
