I am unable to "forward" any emails. I get the following error; an error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responed: 5.7.1 [VO-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message.. Please check message and try again. I have tested with a empty MSG and still get the same error. I have talked to my ISP (Centurylink) and they claim they are not blocking my emails. Has anyone else seen this and how do I correct it?

perhaps you might ask century link how come if they are not doing it their server is sending that information? Thunderbird does not have error structured like 7.5.1... but SMTP mail server do. ANd that is exactly what this message is from, an SMTP mail server. About the only thing you can do uis ensure you are using their SMTP server to send your mail by checking in account settings (outgoing server (SMTP) Yet again ISP support that is so close to valueless as the be time wasting.

The evidently do. The error message is from their server:
