Mail bounced back with "550 spam, or phishing or malware."

[Mallad]

Using Outlook my primary BTmail account has had this all day and I cannot reply to  mail without it being immediately bounced back. I have other Outlook email addresses which work perfectly sending the same message.

Please note that I can forward mail quite successfully from my primary email

The message is a simple line of text sent and to only one recipient (have tried various). There are no links or attachments. There is no virus (Kaspersky) or malware. I have reset my router but no joy. I have run Microsoft Support and Recovery but it found no problems

Everything works fine when using BT webmail

I have been with BT broadband and used this email address with Outlook for >20 years and never had such a problem.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi @Belladog, welcome to the forum and sorry you are also getting this error. 

Would you log into webmail and see if it works ok for you there and let us know?

Cheers

Hi @RobbieMac 

For the last couple of days I have also encountered the same issue when sending emails using Outlook.

Every email I send comes back as: 'Undeliverable - 550 spam, or phishing or malware.  Please check or edit your message and try sending it again."

I can send emails using Web Mail OK.

Incoming email seems to be working fine both in Outlook and Web Mail.

I have not changed any Outlook settings recently and have rebooted my BT Smart Hub, but to no avail.

Thanks for any assistance.
