In the past week I have received this error message several times when trying to send an email with T-bird 91.7.0. Most emails are sent but every once in a while they won't go. I can't figure why. Any ideas? Something to do with the content?

Sorry... I should have given more details. My ISP's SMTP settings are correct. I can send several emails with no problem and then this message pops up on the next email. Then I can send several email again with no problem. It's very erratic. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the content of the email... for example when I'm forwarding a certain web site.

I suggest you log your sending of mails so there is something to go on when it fails.
