5.4.0 A temporary problem was encountered while processing this message.

Can log in via webmail, and log in thru Thunderbird. Receiving incoming mail fine. Sent an outgoing email with pics an hour ago. Tried to send another a few minutes later, and whether it's a plain email or one with pics, it says it can't go thru at this time. "The server responded: 5.4.0 A temporary problem was encountered while processing this message. Please check the message and try again later."
