The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the "I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider. The rejected e-mail address was 'andylaggad@gmail.com'.

1. http://email.about.com/od/windowsmailtips/qt/et_get_gmail.htm That will tell you step by step how to setup Windows Mail to use GMail.
2. Here's a site with instructions: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/setting-up-gmail-imap-support-for-windows-vista-mail/ However, in order to send out email you may need to have the smtp server and account from your internet service provider, not gmail. Most isp's won't let you use any other smtp server than theirs. Check on your provider's website.
