554 error - problem with email

Hi
My elderly mother-in-law has been getting 554 error messages and from what I can ascertain her email accounts (two of them) have been blocked by BT. 
Her account has also suffered a blizzard of mailer-daemon failures over the past week (approx). 
How do I resolve this for her from a diastance, and get her email, which she relies upon, working again?
Help very much appreciated!

Hi.
The mailer-daemon failures are almost certainly because a spammer has used your mother's email address as the "from" address in their spam run - there is nothing that can be done to prevent this. However Yahoo! can sometimes be really bad in making silly assumptions, possibly causing this issue.
How long has this been happening ? It may just sort itself out. If you know hre email addresses and passwords, you can login to webmail to see if you can send emails to check. If you do, make them real ones to say your own account.
What mail client program is she using ? (e.g. Outlook, Thunderbird, Windows Mail), or is she using webmail ?

  • Problems with email and SMS after 1.3.5

    Let me first say that I love the Pre. Up until this point it has been perfect - I have a replacement, but that is because I dropped it (wrong angle, wrong location, broken screen). However, following the 1.3.5 update I'm now having a fairly important problem with email and sms - I can receive email and messages, but not send them.
    I have two email accounts. My personal account is with earthlink. My work account goes through an ISP using the domain name of my employer. I'm not using Microsoft Exchange or Outlook. I have tried deleting and reentering the accounts and that did not work. I can receive messages but get error messages when I try to send. 
    The same for messaging. I don't use it very often. But yesterday I get a text message  and tried to respond and got the error message.
    I power the phone off every night because I have a landline and use that as the primary phone at home.
    I have been looking around message boards trying to find a fix for this.  Has anyone had this issue and resolved it?
    Thank you.

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I forgot to add that this is a stock Pre. There are no patches or homebrew apps. 
    Edit:
    I found a fix for the email problem, in posts on precentral and this board from a few months ago. The info came up in a Google search, and not searches of the boards, which is kind of frustrating.  Here is the info, and the link.  I really wish Palm would put info about this work around on their site, or at least make it easy for people to find.  The solution is the last message in the thread linked below:
    Had the same problem.  Checked with Earthlink - no help.  Checked with Sprint - no help.  Checked with Palm - no help.  Here is what finally worked:
    Delete the earthlink account and start over.  When you do - this is the key - set up the account manually!  If you use the Pre defaults and try to change the settings it will not correct the problem. Your settings for outgoing mail must be:
    "smtpauth.earthlink.net"
    Use Authentication set to "on"
    username is your email address
    your email password
    port set to "587"
    encryption "none"
    Again, the key is to set up manually.

  • Problems with email, Macbook Pro, Yosemite

    Keep getting knocked out of email. Different errors, mostly cannot connect to server. Per Apple's mail support page. One of the settings should be Password. When I change to password in settings, it keeps switching to MD5 Challenge -Response. Could this be causing my problems with email?
    I have a macbook pro & am using the latest Yosemite. But have been having these problems before installing Yosemite. No email problems on an iPad.
    Thanks for your help.

    UPDATE for anyone who's interested.
    I called Apple support. The woman was very helpful and, so far, seems to have corrected my issues. She removed & reinstalled my email accounts. The problem was that the accounts were set up as POP accounts when they should have been IMAP accounts. The authentication is now set to Password and all mail settings are as shown in the Apple's Mail Settings Lookup page. 

  • Several problems with email

    I've been having several problems with email.  
    1. I sent email on Dec 10 and the people didn't receive them until Dec 16.
    2. I often get two, three or even four copies of the same email in my Thunderbird client.
    3. My Moto X (2nd gen) phone sometimes says it can't connect to email. 
    What's the problem?

    Thanks for reaching out to us JoAnn108. We'll do everything possible to address this for you.
    Could you tell me how long this has been an issue? I noticed you mentnioned Thunderbird; do you experience the same problems when working with your emails directly from the Verizon webmail portal? Also, are there any error messages you notice when the issue occurs? If we can get some answers to these questions it'll help determine our troubleshooting path.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with email links

    Hi all -
    I am using RoboHelp v7. I inherited my KB's already set up, but have been maintaining them for a couple of years now. However, we moved from Outlook to Google mail, and users are no longer able to send email from Robo. Note that I am able to send email from any other webpage using my corporate gmail account, having set up my mailto to utilize gmail.
    I have email addresses in my KB's in two formats, and tried a third based on a post I read.
    A regular mail to - where I've simply created a link to an email address, such as - "please contact the ECCN Reviewers via email to Eccn   PCM-PCMECCN."
    with the link set as - mailto:[email protected]
    A script that was created by the original owner, which contains one line - this always worked previously
    document.write("<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]?subject=" + "Change request for '"+ document.title + "' page of the MotoPDM Help System\">MotoPDM Help Admin</a>");
    I read Peter's Snippet #38 - Email this topic - and created a new snippet based on what he had - this didn't work either
    <p><script type="text/javascript">
    var mailSubject = 'Useful Information';
    var mailBody    = 'This page might help: ' + location.href;
    var mailDisplay = 'Click here for a demo.';
    document.write(
        '<a href="mailto:[email protected]'
        + '?subject=' + escape(mailSubject)
        + '&body=' + escape(mailBody)
        + '">' + mailDisplay + '</a>'
        );</script></p>
    In all three examples above, when I click on an email link, the main page of the KB goes blank, and nothing happens.
    If I click on a normal webpage link (such as http://www.swingandblues.com/about.html, Greg Avakian - "[email protected]", I generate an email without issue.
    I'd appreciate any assistance, I have no idea where to go next.
    Thank you,
    Anahid Avakian

    Hi William -
    Sorry for delay - we are working on a release and that took precedence over everything else for a few days... first - thank you for all your assistance. I do have an issue, but I'm sure it's me doing something wrong. I'm getting a run time error...
    This is my original script:
    document.write("<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]?subject=" + document.title + " section of the PDM1 KB\">[email protected]</a>");
    So I replace it with your Java Script, and yes - I still have the red box in the WYSIWYG page
    +d++ocument.write('<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Mailto(\''+document.title+'\')" >youremail</a>');+
    The HTML looks like this:
    Problem with this page? Click here: <script>+d++ocument.write('<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Mailto(\''+document.title+'\')" >@[email protected]</a>');+</script>
    to provide feedback</p>
    When I preview it, I get this error:
    A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?
    Line 33 Error: Expected ';'
    If I publish, I just get a plus sign for the email -
    Then, if I add the additional info in the HTML page just before script, I get this error when previewing (after saving) - Line 35 Error: Syntax Error and Line 40 Error: Syntax Error:
    Problem with this page? Click here:
    +<script type="text/javascript">+
    +function Mailto(subject) {+
    +     var HTML = 'mailto:mailto:[email protected]?subject='+subject+'+ section of the PDM1 KB';
    +window.open(HTML,'Email');+
    +}
    +
    +</script>+
    <script>+d++ocument.write('<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Mailto(\''+document.title+'\')" >@[email protected]</a>');+</script>
    to provide feedback</p>
    My WYSIWYG page does have two red boxes, but they both have plus signs in front of them (which is different than it was with my original script). And if I publish, I just get two plusses:
    Any suggestion?
    Thank you,
    Anahid

  • Problem with email being tagged as spam

    We recently changed our ISP, and up to this point we had no problems with emails to partners being tagged as spam. I've setup the send and receive connectors as the public FQDN, but we're seeing the following NDR:
    p01c12m113.mxlogic.net #554 Denied[CS] [50e56f35.0.4929.00-2377.9578.p01c12m113.mxlogic.net]
    (Mode: normal) ##
    I've emailed McAfee to see what the problem is, but I haven't heard back. When I do a query on their web site, the web interface doesn't indicate there is a problem with this mail server, but it's continued to reject messages today. Even though the send
    and receive connectors are set to mail.domain.com, but there still a portion of the header with the domain.local. I'm wondering if that might be causing a problem. Can anyone help me out here? Thank you.

    ok lets start one by one.. to rule out the problem with your Email system go to www.testexchangeconnectivity.com and perform the exchange tests like inbound/ outbound and other relevant tests and share the results. once this is confirmed then come to Mcafee
    Let me know which Exchange and which Mcafee versions you are using as i also have Mcafee and it needs some tuning. May be i can help you. but need to know the info and if you can paste a NDR which are tagged as SPAM
    MARK AS USEFUL/ANSWER IF IT DID
    Thanks

  • Why is Apple so bad at providing customers with information on what the problem with email is and what they are doing to fix it?

    Why is apple not providing information on what the problem withe email is and what they are doing to fix, along with a time frame for fixing the problem.

    It was because the problem was major.  If you do not know tech, you should know that a two day outage usually indicates some type of virus, hack, or a bad software load that they had to unravel.  The common way to solve that is to rebuild servers and put back into service.  That takes time.
    Apple did not want to admit this problem.  My guess at this stange was that they loaded new software that might be associated with the new IOS and it crashed.  To reveal this would be to cast into doubt their future revenue.
    Either way.  Run do not walk away from Icloud products and services.  Apple has demonstrated they can not be a business partner.

  • I am having a problem with email, when I delete messages from my Ipad, they come back into trash whether they are on my PC or not. The only way I can delete them is to to my providers site and delete everything there.

    I am having a problem with email. I can receive and send, but when I delete, the deleted messages return into either Trash or Bin or both whether or not I have deleted them from my PC.
    The only way I can get rid of them permanently, is to go into my area of my providers site(Sky) and empty all of the boxes there. I imagine it's a setting, please advise.

    For IMAP mail only.

    I use free Yahoo mail webMail access because folders I created in webmail access doesn't get set up in Apple Mail. While I was searching for post about password and keychain issues, I stumbled on several threads that complain about Mail folder issues, so I'm holding off on Apple Mail.
    On the password and keychain issue that your post is all about.  I've been using login keychain to save and automatical fill my login screens for a year or so successfully, with Safari and Chrome. Automatic form fill also works for Facebook login. Unfortunately, about 4 to 6 months ago, automatic password form fill stopped working with Yahoo webmail, while still worked for GMail (Safari and Chrome). I tried deleting the password entry for my two Yahoo email accounts to start fresh, but neither Safari not Chrome will even ask me if I want to save the password. I was so frustrated that I eventually installed the keypassX 0.43 (password manager) that is quite primitive sompare to OS X's keychain (when it works). Probably no surprise to you yet.
    The surprise, to me at least, is that, for whatever reason, password auto form-fill from keychain started working again for Yahoo webmail login on Safari about 5-7 days ago. Still doesn't work on Chrome!
    Two tips I can share, at least with webmail access:
    1. Password is save only for one of my yahoo mail accounts. When I login in with my other yahoo account, I get no prompt to save the password, and form fill doesn't work when I try to log in a second time with my other Yahoo mail account.
    2. On inspection of my login keychain, I see a webform password item saved for my Yahoo account that works with keychain. The name of the password is: login.yahoo.com(MyAccountName1#). When I open the password item and look in the Access Control tab, I see Safari and Chome are listed as allowed to access this password item..
         I also an "Internet password" item with a name of just login.yahoo.com. When I open the the password item, it looks just like the password item created for MyAccountName#1, but the MyAccountName#2 is listed in the Account field. Inside the Access Control tab, no apps are listed in access permission. I added Safari and Chrome to the lists of allowed app, saved the password item.
    Now when I bring up the Yahoo login page(by bookmark) on Safari, form fill fills in MyAccountname#1 for name and the proper password and I can login in. When I change the name to MyAccountName#2, the correct password is retrieved and I can log in! Alas, it still doesn't work on Chrome.
    BTW, I changed the password item type from "Internet password" to "Web Form password" and saw no difference! I also edited the name to be "login.yahoo.com (MyAccountName#2)" to look like the web form password item that works, but it has no effect either.
    From my experimentation, here's my observation:
    1. A Web Form password item is created for the first account name(MyAccountName#1) for login.yahoo.com and typed as Web Form password. When I log in using MyAccountName#2, an Internet Password is created, but no applications are listed as allowed to access the password item, even when the password item was created after just logged in and logged out to yahoo with the account name and password for MyAccountName#2.
    2. Manually adding Safari as an app that is allowed to use the password item works. Doesn't work with Chrome!
    The version of Safari I'm using is Version 5.1.7 (6534.57.2). My installed version of Chrome is Version 21.0.1180.79 beta.

  • Problem with Emailing the Internal table data as an excel attachment

    Hi Friends,
    I am facing problem with Emailing an internal table data as an excel file. I am using standard function module "SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1" which is using SOLI structure can have record with 255 character length. But my Internal table having each record means after concatenating all the fields it is going to be morethan 450 characters. so i t is not displaying all the data in excel file.
    Can somebody help me if there is any other function module or any other way that i need to follow.
    thanks for help
    venkat.

    You must use the the :
    CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB as a field seperator and
    CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF as a record seperator.
    Check this example:

  • Problems with email account

    Hello.
    I am having problems with my Mac email account. I think that by mistake I linked my account to Verizon.com email and now when I open my Macmail it gives me the following message:
    "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Verizon” or try again.

    That error states that the mail is trying to access the Verizon email server. From the sound of your post, your not using a Verizon email address right?
    Now if you are using a Verizon email address, then the problem is that you have SSL checked. Verizon servers do not use SSL so you would need to uncheck that option in the settings
    If your not using a Verizon email address, then the problem is that your incoming server is incorrect. You need to enter the correct incoming server for what ever Email address you are using.
