Message Not Delivered: User authentication for message failed
The message could not be delivered because there was a problem with the sender's user authentication to the sender's email provider email system.
Fixes
Review the email account settings. Check for options that require "user authentication" for outbound SMTP and ensure that the Username and Password values are correct.
If the account settings are correct, contact the email provider to help identify any misconfiguration with the sender's account or with the email system.
