Make sure the outgoing/incoming mail servers, your username and password are correct. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or internet service provider ( ISP).' Navigate to your email account settings in Outlook under: Tools > Account settings > highlight your account and click 'change' > click 'more settings' Look through all the tabs.
