Hi Rocky
That means you must supply a username and a password.
Study Stuart's explanation - it tells all about this.
However, since your old code stopped working, the case may exactly be that the host of the SMTP server you use has changed how to address it - before authentication was not needed, now it is.
This is one of the reasons why I suggest in some cases to run your own SMTP server which you will have in full control. Another is the change the SMTP server to that of the ISP which the client uses. Such an SMTP server runs normally without authentication for those on the same network as it "knows" who the sender is ("he is on my network").
If you cannot use another SMTP server, you will have to obtain user credentials and authentication method from the admin of the SMTP server you currently use.

Apparently I need to "authenticate my outgoing server" whatever the hell
that means.
