Campaigns - Hard bounces for valid email addresses

I am getting hard bounces with 'Bad Mailbox Destination Address' for valid email addresses that everybody internally and externally can email without problem.
Doesn't instill me with much faith for sending out 10,000 emails next week!

If you can email that address manually from a regular email address and it goes through fine then it's likely you might be getting blocked by spam filters although usually that would be indicated in your bounce message.
Is your site fully hosted on BC (ie - with BC's nameservers) or is your domain hosted via an A record to point to BC?  If you are being blocked by spam filters then you are likely using the A record because fully hosted sites on BC have the SPF records in place.
If you are using an A record to point to BC's servers for your domain and manage your DNS records somwehere then you need to add a TXT record with the SPF data.  Goto your domain registrar and manage your DNS entries.  You'll want to add a TXT record with the following info:
Record name: @
Record type: TXT
Record value: v=spf1 mx include:worldsecuresystems.com ~all
Record TTL: 86400
You can only have one SPF record on your domain so if you already have a TXT record with SPF data in it for other email services your domain uses (like gmail) you just need to update your TXT SPF record and add "include:worldsecuresystems.com" after the first "include" statement in the TXT record the TXT value would look like:
"v=spf1 mx include:_spf.google.com include:worldsecuresystems.com ~all"
If your problem is that your emails are blocked by spam filters that should fix it but I'm pretty sure 'Bad Mailbox Destination Address' usually indicates a non-existent or malformatted username in your email address (ie - the part before the "@").  I would also double check your subscribers list and make sure there are no spaces or any other invalid character in the email addresses for the customers that are getting bounced back.
Here's more information about your specific error from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232118(v=exchg.80).aspx which has to do with MS Exchange server specifically but still provides a good explanation:
5.1.1
Bad destination mailbox address
This failure may be caused by the following conditions:
The recipient e-mail address was entered incorrectly by the sender.
No recipient exists in the destination e-mail system.
The recipient mailbox has been moved and the Microsoft Office Outlook recipient cache on the sender's computer has not updated.
An invalid legacy domain name (DN) exists for the recipient mailbox Active Directory.
This error typically occurs when the sender of the message incorrectly enters the e-mail address of the recipient. The sender should check the recipient's e-mail address and send again. This error can also occur if the recipient e-mail address was correct in the past but has changed or has been removed from the destination e-mail system.
If the sender of the message is in the same Exchange organization as the recipient, and the recipient mailbox still exists, determine whether the recipient mailbox has been relocated to a new e-mail server. If this is the case, Outlook may not have updated the recipient cache correctly. Instruct the sender to remove the recipient address from sender's Outlook recipient cache and then create a new message. Resending the original message will result in the same failure.
Other issues may cause this error, such as an invalid legacy distinguished name (DN) in Active Directory. Examine and correct the legacy DN of the recipient's mailbox. Then instruct the sender to remove the recipient address from sender's Outlook recipient cache and then create a new message. Resending the original message will result in the same failure.

    You might want to rethink your thoughts about making transferring authority easier.  Making it too easy would certainly degrade your account's security.  If you still believe it should be easier, you can send feedback directly to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • I can't set up my email account on my ipod touch.  It keeps saying that I have to use a valid email address for this account

    I can't set up my email on my ipod touch.  It keeps saying I have to use a valid email address for this account.  Help!

    Hi Annie,
    Make sure when you are setting up your e-mail account that you enter in your entire e-mail address.  If you have a Yahoo (includes any e-mail account associated with Yahoo), G-mail, or Aol after entering in your password it should automatically set up.  Any other e-mail address you will have to manually set the account up.

  • Any service available on net to check valid email addresses?jwenting, help.

    Is there any 100% reliable service available on net to check the valid email address so that the mail should not get bounced back if sent to the email id.
    According to jwenting in previous topic, there is one service. Here are his quotes.
    Spammers would love to have such a
    service. Just send random combinations to that
    service at a rate of a hundred thousand a minute and
    you have in a few hours a complete list of all
    working addresses on the net.
    Good enough that you can repeat the process before
    every run and you're never getting bounces again.Could anybody explain what is meant by this?

    He's saying "No there is no such service". It would provide yet another haven for crappy spammers.

  • JavaMail and Valid Email Address

    Hello All,
    I am using JavaMail API to send thousands of emails every day through my application running on J2EE application server...
    But what i really want to do is, how do i check whether a particular Email Address is Valid or not,if not valid then catch a exception and report it....
    Also i meant by Valid email address as to be exsisting on that mail server..e.g "[email protected]"...i.e.the user "javamail" should exist on that domain "sun.com"...
    Is there any way which i can do the above thing?
    Also,since i will be sending 1000's of emails every day will it be feasible for me to check each and every email whether it exist or not and then send it.....how much time will it take to do the same...
    Please help me out with this,can anybody give me a Detail desciption and Code of how can i do it...
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
    Thanks a million is advance
    Sam

    E-mail generally passes through a whole series of Mail Transfer Agents before arriving on the target machine, and it could be rejected at any stage.
    It may wind up waiting in a queue. It could be days before it reaches a machine that knows whether the user is valid or not.
    And machines aren't as helpful as they used to be about letting out information about available e-mail addresses,
    too many evil spammers about.
    You can test the format, though I've seen a lot of active e-mail addresses with what I believe are invalid characters in them apparently find their way through.
    In theory you could look up the domain part of the address on the DNS. If you don't find either an "A" record or a "MX" record then niether will your mail transfer agent. AFAIK there's no standard java classes for doing that but there may be some out there on the net.
    There's no sure way of validating a user name except sending a mail and see if it bounces.

  • "" does not appear to be a valid email address. Verify the address and try again.

    I am getting this error whenever I copy an email address from somewhere and paste it into the 'To' field.
    “” does not appear to be a valid email address. Verify the address and try again.
    Whattup with that?
    Only way to get around it seems to be either typing the whole address in (uh!) or clicking on the email address and letting Mail create the new message. Both are not the way I need to do things and it used to work perfectly in Snow Leopard, as would be expected for such a basic sort of command.

    I had the same problem with multiple adressess:
    I used the " ; "  as a seperator.
    The message was sent with no trouble at all as soon as I used the " , " (comma) instead.
    Hope this helps

  • Is there a grace period for apple email address?

    Hey guys I was wondering if there was a grace period for apple email address yourname@'insert apple domain name'.com once you deactivate or delete it before it can be used again?
    for example with phone numbers for certain companies it takes 2yrs once the number is disconnected for it to be available to be used again.
    Which leads into why i'm asking this, as the reason for this is I had an apple ID/email address that i used when working for an apple reseller a few years ago and when i left i was asked to delete it. which i did but i would like to use the yourname part of it again with @icloud.com but its saying the email address is already in use.
    Now i know what you might say that someone else could be using in but thats is very unlikely as i have a very unique name plus i also know that apple in their infinite wisdom kept all address ending in @me.com and @apple.com active in the icloud change over to allow association between @me.com accounts and @icloud.com accounts and i believe the later is the cause of my fustration.
    If there is no grace period is there anyway to prove that i was [email protected] and delete that record so that i can setup [email protected] as the apple ID in question are different?

    If you are reading this message either in the online community or in an email notification you have received, please be aware it is a temporary post.
    The support community is currently undergoing some minor problems which can occasionally result in newer posts being rendered invisible. One method of working around this issue and revealing the hidden posts is to add a further post of one’s own.
    However because it’s not possible to see what one is replying to, it’s not possible to make a valid post in terms of the question(s) being asked, but once it has been posted and the invisible posts become visible again, one can then edit the post accordingly.
    If you are seeing this in an email notification, unfortunately you won’t be notified of any subsequent edit and as such should return to the message in the online community to see any changes made to it.

  • Spry validation and validating email address?

    I've seen that spry can be used to validate forms. I have not
    seen an
    example of an email address or more complicated validating
    being done.
    Where's a good source for how to do this?

    Validating email addresses is not entirely possible. You can
    only validate
    the SYNTAX of an email address. This is best done server side
    rather than
    client side (or perhaps both ways) since validating only
    client side can be
    defeated by simply disabling javascript.
    I like the Spry validation, though, because it is EXTREMELY
    flexible and
    easy to use. David Powers has some very good discussions
    about Spry in his
    Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS. Ajax, and PHP book, as does David
    McFarland in his
    Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual.

  • Validating email address - please help?

    hi,
    i have registration form in jsf, and i have a field for an email address, i was wandering if anyone knows how to validate the email address, when this is submitted to a javabean, to make sure it is an actual valid email address and that both email addresses ( re-entered ) entered are the same.
    so what i really want is the javacode for the javabean that can validate the email address to make sure it is valid.
    any help is appreciated
    thanks.

    Here's how I did a Postal code validation:
    public void validatePostalCode(FacesContext context, UIComponent toValidate, java.lang.Object inputValue) throws
    ValidatorException {
    Pattern pattern;
    String expression = "\\D{1}\\d{1}\\D{1}\\d{1}\\D{1}\\d{1}"; // x9x9x9
    String value = null;
    try {
    value = inputValue.toString();
    pattern = Pattern.compile(expression);
    this.postalCodeValidationError = !pattern.matcher(value).matches();
    } catch (ClassCastException e) {
    throw new ValidatorException(
    new FacesMessage(
    "Validation Error: Value " +
    "cannot be converted to String.",
    null));
    if (this.postalCodeValidationError) {
    // Here you do what ever you want when the validation fails
    // Like generating an error in JSF ... see ValidatorException
    On your JSP page add "validator="#{yourBean.validatePostalCode}"" to your inputText tag.
    It would be a good idea to read on Java's regular expression stuff to fihure out the expression you need to pass to Pattern.compile(expression) in order to validate the email address.
    Hope this help. Cheers

  • SendFailedException, valid email addresses not sent

    Hi all,
    I'm using the JavaMail 1.2 API to send email to an SMTP server and I'm having a problem with invalid addresses. I'm using the Transport.sendMessage(Message, Address[]) method. The API docs says, ". Also, if any of the addresses is invalid, a SendFailedException is thrown. Note however, that the message is sent to the valid addresses."
    However, if there is an invalid address I get the SendFailedException as expected, but the message is not sent to the valid email addresses.
    Has anyone experienced this? Solutions, workarounds?
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Hello Sir,
    I am working on an Enterprise Java Bean Application running on J2EE application server..Also using JavaMail API to send Emails through my application.
    I am able to send emails successfully through it and sending it into a loop one after the other...
    What i am tring to do is, if i encounter an Invalid Email Address the application throws me an SendFailedException and from this SendFailedException i want to catch Invalid Email Addresses... so that i will come to know which emails where sent and which were not...
    But the problem is that ,if an Invalid Email Address is encountered and after throwing me an SendFailedException if i try to Catch the Invalid Address ,like
    Address[] invalid = sfe.getInvalidAddresses();
    and print an SOP after this,
    System.out.println("Collected InvalidAddress from SendFailedException...."+invalid);
    the SOP prints "Null" ...
    The Invalid Email Address is also an well Formed String....e.g... "[email protected]"...
    The complete Exception is .....
    The exception is javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed; nested exception is: javax.mail.SendFailedException: 554 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: Domain not found
    The Code is ..
    <Code>
    MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
    msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(eMess.getEmailSender()));
    String to = "";
    msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
    InternetAddress.parse(to, false));
    msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.BCC,
    InternetAddress.parse(eMess.getEmailReceiver(), false));
    msg.setSubject(eMess.getSubject());
    msg.setContent(eMess.getHtmlContents(),"text/plain");
    msg.saveChanges();
    try {
    Transport.send(msg);
    System.out.println ("The Email has been sent successfully....");
    } catch (javax.mail.SendFailedException sfe) {
    System.out.println("The exception in MailHelper is " + sfe);
    ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
    Collection badAddresses = null;
    System.out.println("Collecting InvalidAddress from SendFailedException....");
    Address[] invalid = sfe.getInvalidAddresses();
    System.out.println("Collected InvalidAddress from SendFailedException...."+invalid);//this SOP is Null....
    if (invalid != null) {
    System.out.println("Invalid Addresse(s) found......");
    if (invalid.length > 0) {
    for (int x = 0; x < invalid.length; x++) {
    invalidAddresses = invalid[x].toString();
    System.out.println("The Invalid Addresses are :"+invalidAddresses);
    </Code>
    Can anybody help me out with this problem.Any suggestion or code can be greatly appreciated...

  • TS3212 You must enter a valid email address while reviewing new account information

    I have just recently set up an iTunes account.  When I try to go to the iTunes store I am receiving message that I have not used this ID yet and must review my info.  When I go to review my info it keeps telling me I must enter a valid email address.  What gives here?  Have been trying to get in for 2 hours.  Ridiculous!

    If you have been looking at these discussion pages for a while (even though you have only just created an ID for them), you would know that it's the question that needs to be asked.
    If you would have had the same problem as the original poster you would know that the question is valid. I have the sam problem and I know that there is no such valid email address that qualifies.
    If the (most obvious) answer to your question is yes, what is the contribution of your post to this topic? It would be nice to post the answer to both options. That is if you them.
    What you think is the possibility to try to fill the apple id field for two hours and not even by accident fill in a string that is a valid email address. Let me assure you that if someone tries to fill a field for two hours he will try everything that fits. Including an email address.
    Luckily I found a solution to this problem elsewhere although I don't know if it can be applied on a Windows machine. The solution I found was this:

    If you are signed into your current iCloud ID you shouldn't be prompted for the old ID unless there is another service still signed into it.  Check the ID in iMessage (Settings>Messages>Send & Receive), FaceTime (Settings>FaceTime), Game Center (Settings>Game Center), the iTunes store (Settings>iTunes & App Store), etc. to make sure you aren't still signed in with the old ID.  If you are, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.
