Spam filter blocks outgoing mail

For the past couple of days I get this error when trying to use my main mail account from my PC

An unknown error has occurred.

Subject 'Fw: update your account information'
Server Error: 550
Server Response: 550 Message refused by spam filter.
Server: 'mail.home.nl'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC69
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No
I guess this is a pfishing attempt and that someone is trying to use my PC to spread it. I can't find any trace of this mail anywhere. I'm using Avast firewall and anti-spam but there seems no way to reconfigure it.
Any help welcomed
