Normally SMTP 530 error occurs due to below issues,

 

  1. Invalid Authentication (wrong login creds)
  2. Invalid recipient's mail
  3. Blacklisted/Blocked IP Address

 

Also error code 530 implies 530, Must issue a STARTTLS command first. Encryption required for requested authentication mechanism.

 

 

Hope it helps!

May you please advise which credentials are you reffering to?
