No, I'm not running my own MTA. I am using mozilla mail for my MUA, and
I am using my ISP's smtp server, smtp.sbcglobal.net . I have not changed
any settings on my machine, and it was working fine until this
Wednesday. Now messages go through, but I get this error.

My ISP's smtp server does not require auth that I know of. It has been
working until two days ago without auth configured. I asked the ISP if
they had changed anything on the server end, and they said "No."

I just tried using another smtp server and it worked fine. I can only
use this smtp server to send messages to users within that domain, so
this is not a solution. I am convinced that this is my ISP's problem,
and not a Fedora problem, so this thread can be ignored, unless someone
has any ideas of what might be happening.
