I found this thread on a similar issue.

This one seem promising too

I wonder if Vista is trying to not allow a possible outgoing unwanted
mail by what it thinks is a bug or virus or trojan or something?  I've
not ever tried to send mail from an access ap so I can't be of much
help. I know lots of other folks have so I'm surprised nobody has
replied on this yet. Not many developers are using Vista I guess.

Good luck figuring it out Carolyn.
