GoDaddy blocks sending emails

I have a web app that uses SMTP to send emails (just simple contact us form). But when user submits form I see this error:

An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden 
                         by its access permissions 173.201.193.228:25

Why is this? Locally emails works well + when I deploy this on Azure I don't have this problem. See this error on GoDaddy hosting only.

From Go Daddy's Help Center:

Your server must send mail using our relay servers. This prevents abuse of our network and helps ensure our customers don't get blacklisted for using the same network as a spammer.

You can use Go Daddy's email relay server (instructions in the linked documentation), or a 3rd Party service over a protocol other than SMTP, for instance Amazon Simple Email Service via the SES API.
