HT204150 "bad address syntax"..??

I have one contact that for some reason, no matter how often I edit the contact info to reflect a proper email, once I try and use the address, the email bounces back with the following:
     Your message cannot be delivered to the following recipients:
     Recipient address: @
     Reason: bad address syntax
For whatever reason, it believes I'm only sending it to '@' and it never reads the actual email address that I've entered for this contact. It may not even be part of the Contacts, but just an auto-fill function..
Anyone have any ideas on how to delete this '@' address association with my specific contact?
Thanks
Alain

"501 Bad address syntax" Squirrel Mail message

I am getting "501 Bad address syntax" when attempting to use a now once again freshly installed version of Mac OS X 10.4 server on an xServe.
I have installed the server completely from scratch to attempt to solve this problem about a week ago, and it was fine, until today. Now... when a user attempts to send a mail through www mail, they get the "501 Bad address syntax" Squirrel Mail message.
I have installed mailbfr, and use it religiously, but it does not seem to be able to fix this problem.
Is this something that I need to make changes to the httpd configs (or Apple GUI) or something I need to do to mail configs?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax

Hi,
My Exchange Environment contains
Two Exchange 2010 SP3 CAS/HUB servers with WNLB configured
Two Exchange 2010 SP3 Mailbox servers with DAG
External mail is send via a smarthost - Sophos Email Appliance
I have an application that sends mails to internal distribution lists, this lists contain contacts with external addresses.
This is used for 10 distribution lists and delivers mails to the external contacts for 9.
The one that is not delivering gives the following error in Exchange Tracking Log
501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax
I have tried to recreate the contact but no joy.
I can mail the contact from my Outlook profile.
I can mail the contact from the account stated in my Application via Outlook.
Anyone seem this error before ?

Hello,
Since Outlook works fine, I think the issue is more related to the configuration of the APP.
Thanks,

How can I purge a bad address from iPad Mail?

I have entered a bad address for my husband, thinking it was his correct e-mail address. I finally figured out it was wrong(there was an extra letter in it) and I changed it in contacts to correct it(Mobile Me corrected it on all my devices).
Now when I type in his name to send him an e-mail, iPad keeps wanting to send it to the old incorrect address, instead of the corrected address shown in contacts. Please tell me how I can purge the incorrect address from the mail program.

The more times that you use the correct email address, the sooner the correct address should come up as the first option in the list. Still can't delete it, but eventually the correct address should pop up as the first option over the incorrect address.

UTL.MAIL error ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 Address Syntax Error in

Hi,
I am new to the forum so please excuse if I post incorrectly without conforming to the standards.
We need to send mails using the UTL.MAIL package and have installed them on the database.
Whenever I am trying to send an email I am getting the following error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 Address Syntax Error in
[email protected]
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_MAIL", line 654
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_MAIL", line 671
ORA-06512: at line 2
The test code which I am running is as follows:
BEGIN
UTL_MAIL.send(sender => 'test <[email protected]>',
recipients => '[email protected]',
subject => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
message => 'UTL_MAIL test body');
END;
I have tried different combinations:
BEGIN
UTL_MAIL.send(sender => 'test "<[email protected]>"',
recipients => '[email protected]',
subject => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
message => 'UTL_MAIL test body');
END;
even tried
BEGIN
UTL_MAIL.send(sender => '[email protected]',
recipients => '[email protected]',
subject => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
message => 'UTL_MAIL test body');
END;
Everytime I am getting the same error.
This seems to be working with an exchange mail server but never on the SMTP server.
In the SMTP server logs the sender address is not having the angular brackets <> unlike the other mails which are being sent over.
It seems that the SMTP server is pretty strict and the SMTP admin will not change any settings on the server.
The oracle version is as follows
Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
Could you please help me out with a solution.
Some how the angular brackets are geting stripped off (which UTL MAIL package generally does), Is there any way in which I can include the angular brackets.

I dislike UTL_MAIL - clunky and poor abstraction interface, and not well written.
Had a look at the code. It does this:
WHILE (ALL_RCPTS IS NOT NULL) LOOP
UTL_SMTP.RCPT(MAIL_CONN,'<' || GET_ADDRESS(ALL_RCPTS) || '>');
END LOOP;The GET_ADDRESS() function process the ALL_RCPTS parameter, returns the 1st address from it, and updates the (in/out) parameter with the remaining string.
SQL> var address varchar2(200);
SQL> exec :address := '<[email protected]>,[email protected]';
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> exec dbms_output.put_line( 'get_address='||UTL_MAIL.GET_ADDRESS(:address)||' address='||:address );
get_address=[email protected] address=[email protected]
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> exec dbms_output.put_line( 'get_address='||UTL_MAIL.GET_ADDRESS(:address)||' address='||:address );
get_address=[email protected] address=
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> The address is explicitly surrounded by brackets as per the RFC. So that is what your SMTP server should see.
If not - perhaps then our UTL_MAIL versions do not match. Cannot recall from what version I pulled and unwrapped the UTL_MAIL package code I have.
Personally though, I've ceased using UTL_MAIL a while back. It lacks in may respects. I have written my own mail package that supports multiple attachment, complex Mime formatting, attachments of 20+ MB in size, and so on - running on the UTL_SMTP interface (that provides the transport layer for sending mail). And for issues like you are facing, I suggest considering using UTL_SMTP directly.

Repetitive error in SMTP log: illegal address syntax

Hello I keep getting this error message in the SMTP log:
Dec 17 22:33:36 chucklepunt postfix/smtpd[2909]: connect from
unknown[10.0.0.12]
Dec 17 22:33:36 chucklepunt postfix/smtpd[2909]: warning: Illegal address
syntax from unknown[10.0.0.12] in MAIL command: <W Server>
Dec 17 22:33:36 chucklepunt postfix/smtpd[2909]: disconnect from
unknown[10.0.0.12]
my mail server has this IP listed above, so it obviusoly looks like some kind of internet connection, but I don't know why it keeps happining, and I have 10.0.0.12 listed in the local hosts alias.
Thanks

I thought my problem was solved once I added 10.0.0/24 to my relay and 10.0.0.12 to local hosts in the mail setup but I am getting the error again.
You say is it in my /etc/main.cf?
Should I have that config file, because I do not, at least not in that path.
suggestions please
Thanks!

The operation couldn't be completed. Bad address

Until yesterday, FCP was working fine. today I get that message : The operation couldn’t be completed. Bad address
This week is my biggest post-prod week and I really have no time or patience to deal with this kind of sh***
Here what happens...
When I try to create a new Event, I get that message. If I quit and reopen FCP, the event has been created and I can import into it
But then I get this message: Final Cut Pro cannot save changes to projects or Events.
Quit or continue
I get the message : The operation couldn’t be completed. Bad address i
when I try to create a new project. Except that after quitting and reoppening
I don't have a projet but a folder instead and I can't do anything with it.
I read all the forums and did everything that was suggested
- disconnected all external HD
- Trashed the pref files
- Repaired disk permissions
- made sure I only have one copy of FCP X
WHAT ELSE CAN I DO ?
(using FCP 10.0.9)

This looks like some kind of drive or permissions issue.
If your projects are in an external drive, try checking the "Ignore ownership on this volume" box.
Select your drive in the Finder, Cmd-I to open the Get Info window, and tick the little checkbox.

Error: 'bad address'

So, I've created an iBook. Closed it. Opened it a few hours later to edit some more. Tried to save it, responding in the error:
"The document 'xxx' couldn't be saved. Bad address."
Now what?

Have a look at metalink Note:395350.1
Basically, this document describes it's a problem in DIO (direct IO), which can be tuned using vxtunefs (per filesystem).
The document describes to enlarge the buffer bigger than the described number (which is 1MB)
dynamically: vxtunefs -o discovered_direct_iosz=1572864 /mount/point (replace /mount/point with the oracle mount point(s))
statically in /etc/vx/tunefstab: /dev/vx/dsk/oracle/oravol discovered_direct_iosz=1048577 (replace with your oracle filesystems)

Mail won't send if recipients include bad address?

I've been having a problem sending email on occasion, and it seems to be linked to a recipient in the recipients list (To, BCC, or CC) having a bad address. Mail won't tell me which recipient is incorrect, though. I'm trying to send out an email to a mailing list that includes a number of recipients, and it's a pain trying to determine which address is incorrect. Any way to force Mail to send the message regardless? Or maybe to find out which address it's choking on?

That doesn't help me much- I've already divided the mailing list into 9 different groups. I'm trying to minimize the amount of email going out to the recipients.
I ended up just using my ISP's web email client to send the message to each group, and then removed the addresses for the recipients that bounced.
I could have sworn that Mail had the same behavior in a previous version (letting me send to "bad" addresses). It would be nice to either have that behavior back, or at least have Mail tell me addesses it's choking on instead of telling me that a server isn't working...

Align text to address syntax...

Hello Experts,
I am currently modifying a sapscript form wherein the text 'Delivery Address' is not aligned
with the address. Below is the code:
AS           Delivery Address:
/:           ADDRESS DELIVERY PARAGRAPH DA
/:             TITLE    &SADR-ANRED&
/:             NAME     &SADR-NAME1&, &SADR-NAME2&, &SADR-NAME3&, &SADR-NAME4&
/:             STREET   &SADR-STRAS&
/:             CITY     &SADR-ORT01&, &SADR-ORT02&
/:             POSTCODE &SADR-PSTLZ&
/:             COUNTRY &SADR-LAND1&
/:             REGION   &SADR-REGIO&
/:             FROMCOUNTRY &LFA1-LAND1&
/:           ENDADDRESS
So it shows as:
Delivery Address:
            Title
            Name
               Street
            City
            Postcode
I want it to be like this:
Delivery Address: Title
            Name
               Street
            City
            Postcode
I cna remove the ADDRESS syntax and do it manually but I want to know if there are others ways to
achieve my requirement?
Thank you guys and take care!

Hi,
   I think no other way is there. you have to write manually.
The ADDRESS - ENDADDRESS control command formats an address according to the postal convention of the recipient country defined in the COUNTRY parameter. The reference fields are described in the structures ADRS1, ADRS2, or ADRS3, depending on the type of address. Either direct values or symbols may be assigned to the parameters.
Address details are fill in sepeate lines.
Thanks,
suma.

Ioctl bad address

hi all,
To send data from my dummy driver to user
i used mp->b_cont->b_wptr = "hello to user"
mp->datap->db_cmd=IOCACK,
qreply(q,mp);
but the application ioctl is failing with
bad address why?
Although i gave enough buffer space
to strioctl.ic_dp buffer i.e malloc(50)
even though the data i sent is just 15 characters.
can anybody answer me..
if so thanks in advance
regards
vasu

i tried using rptr but no use..
here the code is in application side
char *buf
buf = (char*) malloc(70)
buf="hello world"
strioctl.ic_timeout=30
strioctl.ic_dp=buf
strioctl.ic_len=strlen(buf)
ioctl(fd,I_STR,&strioctl)
driver code
mp->b_cont->w_ptr++="Good bye world"
error coming is "bad address" why?
if any one has example for sending data from driver
to user application using I_STR ioctl please welcome.
thanks for all who r ready to help me
