I have msn for my home ISP and found the same when trying to access my mail
from work. Here is their response to this change.


Why am I no longer able to send e-mail from other ISP accounts when I am
signed in to MSN?
If you are using Outlook Express with multiple e-mail accounts from
different Internet Service Providers in addition to MSN Internet Access, you
can no longer send e-mail from your other ISP accounts when you are signed
in to MSN.
MSN is implementing an industry-standard spam filtering system on our e-mail
servers. This action is part of a new set of anti-spam initiatives designed
to protect MSN customers and the MSN e-mail system from unsolicited
commercial e-mail.
MSN does not provide support for accessing e-mail from other ISP accounts
through MSN.  If you want to continue to do so while you are signed in to
MSN, you must re-configure your Outgoing mail (SMTP) server information to
ensure that all of your outbound e-mail is sent through the MSN SMTP mail
servers. To do this, follow the instructions below. Repeat these
instructions for each additional account you have set up in Outlook Express.
Note: Any issues you encounter with the following configuration are not
supported by MSN.  These instructions are only provided to assist
subscribers who elect to configure Outlook Express to use more than one ISP
e-mail account.
1. Start Outlook Express.
2. Click Tools, and then click Accounts.
3. Click your additional ISP account name in the list.
4. Click Properties.
5. Click Servers.
6. Under Outgoing mail (SMTP): replace the existing server name with
smtp.email.msn.com.
7. Under Outgoing Mail Server, select the My server requires authentication
check box.
8. Click Settings.
9. Select the Log on using option.
10. Type your MSN user name in the Account Name box.
11. Type your MSN password in the Password box.
12. Select the Log on using Secure Password Authentication check box.
13. Click OK.
14. Click Apply.
15. Click OK.
