Email Issue - Can't send to a distribution list/shared mailbox

Hi,
I am able to send emails to named email addresses for individuals in my company but when I add a distribution list or a shared mailbox, I get the following error:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 550 5.1.1 : Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
Can someone please help me with this issue?
Thanks
LCHIMC

Hello,
In general I'd recommend you should always use a full address for your email recipients. Your mail server should handle a fully qualified address even for local delivery, however by using the fully qualified version you protect yourself from any configuration changes on the mail server that would stop local addressing working.
Just my thoughts.
John.

  • Comcast Email Issues - Can't Send Emails

    I have Comcast as my service provider. About three times now, I have had an issue with Comcast not allowing me to send emails. I can receive them, but not send them. I have had to delete the Comcast account from mail and make a new one. This has not only been on our Mac's but our iPhones as well. I have gone through several technicians that say it is on our end, but I don't believe it is.
    Has anyone else had this issue, and did you find a solutions.
    Thanks!

    I worked at length with Comcast tech support, with them concluding the problem was Mail, not Comcast. ... Again, Thunderbird produces same errors.
    That fact, and the 20 million other Comcast customers using Apple Mail, says Comcast tech support is wrong.
    The default settings try multiple ports at once and one of them is returning an unexpected error so it never tries a port that will work. Click the box to set a custom port number and enter one of the other port numbers. That will cause it to bypass the one port that is problematic.

  • TS3899 email issues, can't send.

    Am unable to send any emails from the phone however can receive incoming emails. All settings are correct.

    Sounds like you don't have the correct settings for your outgoing mail server.
    Contact your e-mail provider and find out what it should be.

  • As of 1:00pm Thursday, 3/1/12, I am no longer receiving any email, nor can I send anything out from my account. I am OS4.1.1, hoping to upgrade next week to Leopard (because my mac is not Intel-based), but in the meantime, it's non-functional.

    Is anyone else having problems with the email? I am not receiving any emails, nor can I send anything out. Spent 30 minutes on online chat last night with someone most unhelpful, only to be told that the reason I'm not receiving anything is because my email is being forwarded to another address. I set my preferences to do that several years ago when this mac.com/me.com server began having so many issues, to ensure I was receiving email so I could check from my other address. The only comment I got was well, we no longer support 10.4.1 so there isn't anything we can do to help you. The status update says 33% of their customers are unable to migrate. So I'm pretty sure I'm not alone and that is a pretty large base of customers to no longer provide support to. Is anyone else who has not migrated to iCloud experiencing these email problems? Currently my iDisk works to transfer my larger files, but my email does not.

    Hello, here's the fix I think...
    I think they're slowly nudging people to switch, .mac & MobileMe are going away about July, may as well set it up now.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password

  • I receive emails but can't send with Optimum on my new iMac

    We have a replacement imac that can receive emails but can't send any. We have spent hours with Apple and Optimum and the problem has yet to be resolved! Any ideas?

    I don't really know what you tried, so I can only suggest you start from the beginning:

    Please describe in detail what happens when you take all the applicable steps in the support article. That's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem.

    Hi johnnytoo!
    I know it's aggravating when you need to send an email and it doesn't go through! I have a link that provides step by step information from Apple's website that should resolve this for you.

  • I can receive email but can't send on my ipad2

    I can receive email but can't send on my ipad2. It says 'rejected by the server'.

    I would that that your smtp settings are set up wrong
    I would verify them 1 by 1 against the setup guide from the mail provider
    if they were the same I would suspect that your phone company are blocking the ports
    required by smtp in which case I would take contact to them and ask why

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    You will most likely need to put a password for your outgoing mail server, go back into the mail account and put in the password, same password as your incoming mail server.

  • HT3228 Can get email but can't send

    I set up my pop 3 account and I can receive emails but can't send them. Something simple Im sure..?.

    Many times is is because the outgoing server settings are not correct.
    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • HT201320 I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account?

    I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account on her iPhone? I tried to just copy the info from her old iPhone.

    The sending of email is accomplished via the SMTP server. Take a moment to get back into Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars and select the account. Go to the SMTP server and check to make sure that username and password are entered in all of the appropriate places. If you cannot get it to work after trying to just change those settings, remove the account from the phone and recreate it. When recreating, make sure you enter the username and password in every location, even if the phone says optional. Make sure you have the settings from either the email provider or from the other device. Make sure that SSL is on or off as necessary.

  • Why does my iPad hang when writing an email?  When I'm done with the email, I can't send it out and have to re-boot the iPad.

    Why does my iPad hang when writing an email?  When I'm done with the email, I can't send it out and have to re-boot the iPad. This happens if the time to compose email exceeds 10 to 15 minutes.

    Shut down all programs that are running in the background.
    1. Double-click the Home button to see Apps in background
    2. Hold the Apps down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close program
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo
    Suggest you perform Step 1 to 3 at the end of every day.
