when I try to send email, all that happens is I get the following error message. My email is Eudora OS2
An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Authentication is required to send mail as <mphansen@bellaliant.net> . Please verify your email address is correct in your mail preferences and send again.
I have gone through my email setup and I cannot see where is any mistakes so don't know how verify my email address. Any place in mail preferences that calls for an email address I have checked and it is correct.
Help appreciated.

You are not sending an authenticated account hence the message.
this means you are not sending a password, so you are getting the pop up Authentication Failed error.
- Right click on mail account in Folder pane and select 'Settings'
- Bottom Left - select 'Outgoing server (SMTP)'
on the right you will see a list of your outgoing servers.
- select the smtp server
- click on 'Edit'
- Authentication method: select 'Normal Password'
- click on all 'OK's
