windows 8.1 live mail can't send email error 554, 0x800ccc6f. After an automatic update I can not send emails and I do not know what update has caused this to happen. I can't find an answer or fix.

That error message means a couple of different things. Try this

#1: Servers have a limit on how many recipients you can send to at one time. You may be exceeding the limit.

#2: Change the SMTP port to 587 and make sure: My Server Requires Authentication is checked.
