Make sure you have send authentication enabled:
Go to Tools, Accounts, select that account, Properties, Servers.
The box for "My server requires authentication" must be checked.

If after making that change you still get an error message, change
the outgoing (SMTP) server port from 25 to 587.

I have been unable to send emails. I can receive emails. I am not sure what
to do. A friend at work who is a computer genius set it up for me but he has
moved away and I don't know how to fix this issue. It is frustrating to not
be able to send emails b/c I can't use work email for personal and I really
this to get resolved. I went to website you mention in one of your replies
to update My vista 32bit but it said not required. Dont understand can you
help me.

Do you get an error message when you try to send? If so, right-click
on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.

Had the same problem

not to mention infinite other problems with Windows Mail when outlook
express for Win2k worked perfectly for me >

I used a program called WMUtil, worked perfectly, now the outbox is cleared
and mails come and go freely
