1What mail client are you using? Outlook? Outlook Express? Thunderbird? Opera? Something else? – balpha – 2009-10-31T13:08:02.940

If this is Outlook / Windows Live Mail, it simply means that you have a tick under "This server requires a secure connection (SSL)".

Go to Tools > Accounts, then double click on the account and go to the Advanced Tab.

Untick this and check what port your provider uses.

Please make sure you have enable My Server requires authentication box, while you send mails this is required field by some of the Hosting providers. Also disable your Antivirus firewall which might be scanning your outgoing connection.
