Haven't gotten any mail for 6 days, and getting this pop-up when I try to send mail. What does this pop-up mean?

An error occurred while sending mail: The mail server sent an incorrect greeting: p-impout009.msg.pkvw.co.charter.net cmsmtp Connection Rejected - see http://www.spamhaus.org/query/ip/172.59.24.255 AUP#Out-1220.

I will read your response through my husband's account, or you can reach me at [removed phone# from public forum]

The message I received is below. I could not go to the error page because it is not a hyper-link. Everything else I tried to get there did not work. Do you have a suggestion? Thank you! Wendy
