The problem is given in the response from the server. You need to authenticate to the SMTP server. This is in the database mail account configuration.

Did you configure the authentication in the settings for the account?

you have to fill out the authentication settings of your mail profile; google, yahoo, virtually every external mail server requires the AUTH command to send username and password, so that they cannot be used to send spam and viagra sales notifications.

even your email server on the LAN will reject you, unless the server IP sending mail is on a whitelist.

at my job,, they put all servers on a whitelist, but normal desktop/laptop/workstations are not on that list, and cannot send SMTP to our servers,for example.
