Outlook Error when sending Email - Server Error ;553

I have recently set up a email account using GoDaddy as my POP3 Server Provider. For a while and sparatically it works fine. Every so often (about every other email) I now get a:

Server error: '553 Sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts.'

I have no idea what this message means or how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

That usually means that your ISP is blocking port 25 traffic. Who is your ISP?

When I used to use POP, I found that using port 2525 would work when port 25 was blocked...

Where do I change the POP setting?

Thanks guys; So I followed yobri's instructions and tried all 4 PORT settings for Outgoing Server (previously 25), and also the 2525 setting for outbound mail. POP is set at 110. All give me an error when the application tests for the port with a 553 error.

Any other ideas?
