It looks like you're experiencing problems with sending emails using the OptusNet SMTP server (mail.optusnet.com.au). Here are some potential solutions to help you get your emails sent:

  1. Check your email settings: Ensure that your email client (e.g., Outlook, Gmail, etc.) is configured correctly. Double-check your SMTP server settings, username, and password.
  2. Verify your account: Make sure your OptusNet account is active and your email address is valid. You can try logging into your OptusNet account to verify your email address.
  3. Check for outages: Visit the OptusNet website or social media pages to see if there are any reported outages or maintenance issues affecting email services.
  4. Try a different SMTP server: If the issue persists, try using a different SMTP server, such as Gmail's SMTP server (smtp.gmail.com) or your email provider's recommended SMTP server.
  5. Check your email client's configuration: Ensure that your email client is configured to use the correct port (usually 587 or 25) and authentication method (e.g., SSL/TLS, STARTTLS).
  6. Clear email client cache: Clear your email client's cache and try sending an email again. This may resolve any temporary issues.
