Retrying Email Service fails for the stalled Operations:

Question

Hi,
Some of the send email operations randomly fails due to invalid recipients address or some connectivity issues with SMTP server. Once we do the corrections to the service, and retry those stalled operations, its erring out with Java Nullpointer exception.
Stalled operations work fine for other operations except for email service. Is this a Engineering issue with the Adobe design or do we need to change any configuration settings to make that work?
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Krishna

Hi Aashish,
  Thanks for the response. Yes, it works good for new operations. It fails with Null pointer exception if I retry the stalled ones after corrections.
This was the initial error -
Failed to connect to email server: adobemailer@xxxxx. Reason: Could not connect to SMTP host: xxxxx, port: 25, response: 421: com.adobe.idp.dsc.email.ConnectionFailedException: Failed to connect to email server: adobemailer@xxxxx. Reason: Could not connect to SMTP host: xxxxx, port: 25, response: 421
We corrected the problems with SMTP server and when we retried this stalled operation, this is what we see -
( Email has an attachment, I 'm thinking adobe is not catching up the attachments when I retry it again)
com.adobe.idp.DocumentError: com.adobe.idp.DocumentError: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No transaction
