What application are you using to send and receive emails? It would appear that you have an issue with your outgoing mail server.

those options work with me and i already sent mail
Hi,
Thanks. This message helped me..... I changed the outgoing server account to smtp.live.com from smtp.hotmail.com. "live.com" is the correct one!
Had same problem - i fixed it by doing the following. Goto mail preferences - hotmail account - check outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - Edit SMTP server list - choose the hotmail account - make sure you are using port 587 and "Use SSL" is ticked. For Authentication - choose - External (TLS Client Certification) - this will require you to enter hotmail address and password. On the Account information tab - I also used the apple certificate for the TLS Certificate - I did not leave this as "None". Good luck.
Now that makes sense
I tried this and it worked for about a week and now back to the same thing.
