Well you would think that he would use the same smtp server on his live CD 
setup as he uses on his installed version so it shouldn't make any difference.  
Since he sent his last message through a yahoo smtp server it would seem the 
server settings are valid, and the settings on his computer shouldn't have 
changed in an update which he claims to have done.  

Googling a bit it would appear that the server he shows is correct, and in my 
small amount of testing this is not the error you get with an incorrect  
authentication method, port or encryption, so to me it seems likely to be a 
temporary server problem.  Course I could be wrong, or some other useful 
detail was left out of his email.
