If you see an image challenge question when sending mail, you should just be able to complete the challenge then send mail. If, however, you correctly answer the image challenge and still can't send mail, it could be a sign of a more serious issue with your account, which may require additional steps to secure your account.

551 User not local; please try <forward-path> 552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation 553 Requested action not taken: mailbox name not allowed 554 Transaction has failed (Or, in the case of a connection-opening response, "No SMTP service here") 554 5.3.4 Message too big for system [4] 556 Domain does not accept mail [5]
The current SMTP specification (RFC 5321) clearly states that "the SMTP client retains responsibility for delivery of that message" (section 4.2.5) and "mail that cannot be transmitted immediately MUST be queued and periodically retried by the sender." (section 4.5.4.1). Most MTAs will therefore queue and retry messages, but a small number do not.
The application persists data to an outbox table in a database. Once the data has been persisted another application or process can read from the outbox table and use that data to perform an operation which it can retry upon failure until completion. The outbox pattern ensures that a message was sent (e.g. to a queue) successfully at least once.
