Mail delivery errors

Hi, recently I'm getting tons of Mail Delivery System errors. 69 today alone. When I delete them, they come right back. Many are the same email and sometimes the page is blank. Very weird. The only thing i did differently was to try and set up a rule for people to know I was on vacation. Did not work, and had hundreds of MDS errors upon my return. Have deleted the rule but still not working properly. I also have to force quit on mail often to get it to shut down. Any ideas how to clean this up?
Cheers

I've got the same problem. One thing that helped was to clean out my inbox on my ISP's server. That stopped the force quit problem, at least for now, and also stopped a problem where mail received after that Mail delivery error message wouldn't come into my Mail application. BUT I'm still getting the tons of Mail Delivery System error messages, and yes, even when I delete them, they come right back. The message, which seems blank until I double click on it to open it in a new window, was correct. One address I'd sent an email to is no longer good, which is why one of those messages would have made sense. I see that there is a Windows virus that does this, and am wondering if there might be a Mac one also???

  • How can I stop getting 30 - 50 "Mail Administrator" or "Mail Delivery Errors" from occorring in my e-mail on a daily basis

    Every time I log in to my e-mail I see 30 to 50 "mail delivery" errors. This is very frustrating to each time having to delete those items. I have blocked and clicked on spam, but there is no change.

    For goodness sake, it is most likely [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_%28email%29 backscatter], changing your mail password probably will not help but is a prudent thing to do, but it is actually quite unlikely that anyone is trying to use your mail account.
    There is basically nothing that can be done about backscatter, as the article I linked to advises.

  • Mail delivery error with 5510 e-print. updates and connection are ok. friend has same problem.

    I have checked all of the updates and connections for my new printer.  As far as I can tell, I've checked everything that needs to be checked and all is good.  But, I still get the Mail Delivery error when e-printing.  And my friend has the same problem with her new 5510 b111a.  What could possibly be the problem?  Regular printing, scanning and so on work fine with my wireless connection.
    This question was solved.

    So it sounds like it may be an Issue with the provided Email Address from your internet service provider, you are sending from ,
    What i would suggest as a test is to create a Email account either with g mail and or yahoo, and try to send the email to your eprint account/Email, and see if it accepts the email also, make sure you have your printer set to Accept email from all users you can do this by logging into Eprint Center and then going into these settings and selecting that option

  • Mail delivery error when trying to send document to hpeprint. I know the email address is correct

    I just got the HP8600.  I set up eprint according to the instructions.  When I email a document to the printer, I get a Mail Delivery error:
    This message was created automatically by the mail system (ecelerity).
    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
    >>> [email protected] (reading confirmation): 550 5.7.1 Command
    >>> rejected
    I know the email address is correct.  I don't know what to do to get this to work.

    The Q.com provider seems to have issues sending to our servers for some reason. Other email providers will work fine like you've found with your gmail account. The best workaround at this time is to send from your gmail account if possible.

  • Mail Delivery Error only when sending from certain email accounts

    I posted in another thread regarding this however the problem has seemed to get more interesting.
    On a whim i decided to change which e-mail account I was sending from and re-sent the exact same PDF document from my MobileMe(instead of Gmail) and it worked perfectly!! got the e-print confirmation about it preparing for printing and then whalla the print! Went back to try gmail and got the Mailer Deamon error again: 
    Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
         [email protected]
    Technical details of permanent failure: 
    Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 5.7.1 Command rejected (state 18).
    could it be specifically related to Gmail or googles servers? Are there specific mail providers that work/don't work(for example MobileMe vs Gmail vs Yahoo, BlackBerry, etc...)
    Any help is greatly appreciated in advance.

    and while I had read that information and appreciate you re-providing that I'm still not sure exactly what that tells me. In both cases I was using Apple's Mail (once to send from a Gmail account which failed and once from MobileMe win succeeded) and then again from my BlackBerry handhelp(in which case neither account worked) 
    since both Apple Mail, Blackberry and also Gmail are "tested" I'm assuming you're pointing out the "testing does not guarentee full compatibility"  portion of this statement which to me is misleading. If I'm using only "tested" clients but having problems it feels slightly dishonest to be marketing this product as complete. While I am optimistic about the many possibilities offered by this printer I am disappointed at present by the limited and seemingly premature release of "e-print" as a whole. 
    Any other potential workarounds you can think of?

  • Mail Delivery Error

    Hello,
    I have installed iMs 5.2 with default directory server, i have also created users, all these users can login but when they try to send a mail i get a error " SMTP Error 5.1.1 unknown or illegal alias".
    Can anyone help me pls.
    Thanks
    Darshan

    Hi, I resolved the "illegal alias" problem by running "imsimta dirsync -F" command.
    However, this only resolved the existing aliases I have, but not on newly created email accounts after the command was run.
    How can I overcome this problem? Should I put "imsimta dirsync -F" in a batch file and run it periodically or is there any messaging server settings I can configure?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Mail delivery and Marketing contact list

    Hi Experts,
    I have sent some mails with marketing campaign. In Marketing contact list all mails seem to have been sent successfully, but indeed most of them have caused some kind of mail delivery error.
    Is it standard behaviour that a delivery problem does not occurr in the report?????
    What do I have to do to make the report reflect the delivery problem?
    Thanks and best regards,
    Christina Hammer
    Edited by: Christina Hammer on Apr 13, 2010 6:10 PM

    Once again:
    In SAP Library I found that one of the features of Marketing contact list is to show Transmission status of the personalized mail.
    In my case this is not working, because it does not show a mail reboted due to invalid mail (for example: name.surname@company).
    There is a lot of information about bounce management, but it explains how to do follow-up to those mails. It does not explain how to show them in the report.
    Thanks for your help!!!

    How this started:
    Over the past couple of days to approx a week, I have seen a massive influx of Spam on our server.  Spam coming in on random ex employee names that no longer work for the company.
    Previous to the spam, I turned on "forward un-deliverable mail to" and set to me.  The CEO was missing emails because people were not spelling his name correctly.  I have actually been able tyo catch a lot of employee emails some important, others not.
    In trying to make the mail server more secure, one of the features I tried to turn on was SMTP Client Restrictions, Which broke SMTP for my users.  Obviously the error is mine and I need to do more research, but love some feedback on what needs to be set on the server and clients for SMTP client restrictions to work.
    I know THE HOFF (mr hoffman) had information at some point to help users secure postfix, can anyone point me in the right direction, as well as any tips here on how to stop the influx of spam?

    I am not certain what you mean by immediately removing the 192.1.1.10 and 192.1.1.11, AIX servers that I use to relay admin emails to an IT address here.  Some sort of a gateway implemented on a pair of IBM boxes, I might presume. 
    192.1.1.0/24 is in a public address space that you don't have assigned (unless you're BBN).  If that IP routing leaks out, then some folks can get cranky.  Or should you eventially need to contact hosts within the address space of the "real" occupants of 192.1.1.0/24, routing won't necessarilt play nice.  There may well be a static IP route here, depending on the details of the router configuration, as otherwise that IP traffic would be going to BBN and not to those servers.  The Internet works because folks play by the rules, when working with IP routing and DNS services.  And if your predecessor used this address space (and not the likely 192.168.0.0/16 block), I'd look around to see if there were other unusual network configuration choices.
    TCP port 25 is the server-to-server mail port.  That's the main connection used among mail servers.  Blocking that has the effect that you've discovered.
    It's the clients that can also use that port that need to be relocated off the port, as the clients don't have the reverse DNS and related tests that would allow them access to that port, with various common server security configurations.
    Open TCP 587 at the firewall and ensure that this port is active at the mail server host, as a starting point.  You can test that with (among other tools) with a remote "telnet your.mail.server.host.name 587" command or similar; that's a primitive (but effective) (common) port test.
    With the Apple Mail client, make sure the SMTP server is configured to use the default SMTP ports.  Mail > Preferences > Account > Account Information > Edit SMTP Server > select the target SMTP server > Advanced > select "use the default ports (25, 465, 587)" and consider using SSL and authentication.  (Apple Mail tries a few ports automatically, so the set-up can be different than other clients.)
    I don't have enough space here for a full write-up on how mail or IP works, and setting up an arbitrary mail client or an IP network can be an adventure; I assumed the Apple mail client in the above.  See the user collaboration services disscussion of mail services in the Mac OS X Server Advanced Administration manual as some background.  (And if this stuff all looks a little cryptic, that's understandable, and you might want to consider getting some set-up help or consider moving to hosted mail services and making this stuff somebody else's problem.)

  • CL_SMTP_RESPONSE error in CRM mail delivery

    Hi,
    We have problems with mail delivery in our CRM .
    The error is:
    Error interno: CL_SMTP_RESPONSE Código de error ESMTP desconocido 554
    554 SPAM-Relay detected
    Nº mensaje: XS829
    Please, what to do?
    Manuel

    Hi,
    Error "554 SPAM-Relay detected" comes from your mailserver, hence please check your mail server configuration.
    "Error interno: CL_SMTP_RESPONSE Código de error ESMTP desconocido 554"
    This comes because 554 is not expected as a status for this problem, so the SAP processing gives "Código de error desconocido", that is "code unknown".
    Br,

  • Mail delivery system error - won't delete, replicates

    I have a problem with a 'mail delivery system' email, following an email that I sent out to an incorrect address. I deleted the email, and it promptly reappeared - with exactly the same time as the original, but no content. When I checked in trash, it was there too, but the more I try to empty trash, the more it appears again in the inbox again. A couple of days later, I had two more 'mail delivery system' emails, this time unprovoked, and these have replicated, ie each time I delete them, TWO emails appear in the inbox. I have carried out a disk repair, but the problem still exists. It isn't a huge problem; I continue to receive other mail, but it is a bit irritating - my trash box is huge, and won't empty.
    Any advice gratefully received, thanks!

    Okay, so here is what appears to be going on.
    You sent an email to a group of people and at least one of the addresses was incorrect, so you deleted it, perhaps thinking that would stop the mail from being sent, but I'm just speculating on that. So it goes to your Trash in Mail, but also reappears in the Sent mailbox.
    Later you get an email telling you that your message wasn't delivered, and possibly that it would keep trying for a few days. After that time, you seem to have received a message telling you that delivery of your message failed for a different reason, in that the email address didn't exist in the directory of the mail domain you sent the message to. But it also says that it wasn't delivered because it or another message was too old, and even more strange, that the mail server doesn't accept messages from users on it's own system, which makes no sense whatsoever. Adding more intrigue is the fact that it seems to have had a problem identifying you on it's own mail system for a bit, since it claimed you had no email address there.
    As for the emails replicating when you delete them from the Sent mailbox, I'm guessing (because I've never had this problem myself or heard of anyone else having it) that because the message was CCed to multiple recipients, each time you delete the Sent message, you're only deleting a reference to the message for one of the recipients. So, again I'm guessing, if you were to keep deleting that original Sent message enough times, it would eventually reach the end of the actual recipient list and then disappear. Only a guess.
    If you're using a POP account, there's no reason why you can't empty the Trash in Mail, as well as set the account preferences to delete files from the server when you retrieve them. Have you tried that, or do you not know how to do it?
