I've got the following error while I try to send a message.

You are not authorized to send mail as <MAIL FROM: <mouse0407@163.com>>, authentication is require


This is part of my .emacs file:

(require ' smtpmail)
(setq send-mail-function                'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq message-send-mail-function        'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server      "smtp.163.com")
(setq smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.163.com")
(setq smtpmail-debug-info t) ; only to debug problems
(setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '("smtp.163.com" 25 "mouse0407@163.com" "*****"))

Can you tell me what I had missed?
