Error sending messages on Windows Mail

Have NOT been able to send emails from my Windows Mail account.

Error message is as follows --

Unknown error has occurred -
Server: smtpauth.earthlink.net
Protocol: SMTP"
Server response - '503STARTTLS command used when not advertised
Port: 587
Secure (SSL): Yes
Server Error #0x800CCC65

(this was for an outgoing message directed to a third party)

I tried to send a message to my own email account and the Error Message was
exactly the same, EXCEPT that the final line of the Error Message said -
Server Error #0x800CCC90

I get error message numberox800ccc19 I wonder why the sender participant
wont jot down the sending problem, and or correct ame.

Go to Tools, Accounts, select that account, Properties, Advanced,
then uncheck the SSL option.
