Hi @pavlos24 & @tesbc,

 

For customers who are getting this kind of error when sending emails, we have created this article that may help in resolving the issue.

 

Cannot Send Email Rejected by the Server/Banned from using SMTP

 

In your case, since you have already tried to change the password, we have remotely removed the ban and you will need to wait for 30 minutes for this changes to take effect.

 

Let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Hi, hope you can help, I keep getting the same message whenever I'm away from home, at home I can send messages no problem. Have tried the changing password way as advised but still no good.
