Mail: Fake undeliverable email?

Hi all,
I got an email with the subject "Undeliverable: Accepting until Monday" from <[email protected]>. Scrolling down to the original email, the From: field says "Academy of Higher Education" followed by my ISP email address. The message body is about classes starting November 7. I did not send this email, there is no matching message in my sent folder. While I would assume that this is a phishing scheme, I don't see link that the sender would want me to click. Any similar experiences? Anyone know what this is about?
Thanks,

It could also be spoofing -

Someone else with your email address in their address book, probably someone driving a PC, may have had their address book info compromised.

Dear Brody:I turned on my computer this morning but when I connected to Outlook Express it asked for my password (which is saved on my computer) so I usually don't get this mesage. When I entered password the message returned. The problem reads:Jan 22 2014 There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'Dot Lewis', Server: 'mail.bigpond.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR invalid user name or password.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92 I have now tried to access mail on my labtop and get the same response.I have not changed any settings. Have Telstra changed something? Funnily enough I can access webmail (for the moment!!!) and I was able to send a test message in Outlook Express which was unexpected.Can you help?ThanksDotPS I did a Malwarebytes complete scan of my desktop computer but nothing was found.CheersD

Undeliverable email

Currently I am developing a small system that sends emails out to a large number of subscribers, using JavaMail. How can I avoid the mail server send back undeliverable emails for the invalid email addresses?
Please kindly give me some advice. Thanks in advance.
Kenneth

You cannot avoid that. Some of them will produce "bounce" messages -- you have seen them I am sure. You may wish to look at those bounce messages and remove the subscribers whose addresses do not work. But it is really up to you what you decide to do with them.

Getting Undeliverable Email when Sending Calendar Event

My CEO bought a new iPhone and I have it working with our Exchange 2003 email server and Outlook 2007. The only problem he has is when he sends a calendar event it sends an undeliverable email. The strange thing is the event shows in his Outlook calendar.
The full undeliverable email is:
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject:
Sent: 1/5/2010 9:21 PM
The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:
System Attendant on 1/5/2010 9:21 PM
The e-mail address could not be found. Perhaps the recipient moved to a different e-mail organization, or there was a mistake in the address. Check the address and try again.
<Exchange.XXXX.LOCAL #5.1.7>
Any ideas?

Hi,
Based on the error message, I think it's a permission issue.
It seems the user who is trying to send the message does not have "Send on Behalf" permissions or "Send As" permissions to the mailbox. Please confirm this, grant the user the proper permission if he doesn't have it.
Set the user as a delegate automatically receives "Send on Behalf" permissions. For example, to designate a user as the delegate in Outlook 2010, follow these steps:
Click the File tab, click Account Settings, and then click
Delegate Access.
In the Delegates dialog box, click Add.
Type the name of the person whom you want to designate as your delegate, or search for and then click the name in the search results list.
Note The delegate must be a person in the Microsoft Exchange global address list (GAL).
Click Add, and then click OK.
In the Delegate Permissions dialog box, accept the default permissions settings or select custom access levels for Exchange folders.
To send a message to notify the delegate of the changed permissions, click to select the
Automatically send a message to delegate summarizing these permissions check box.
If you want to grant additional permissions for the delegate to view private items, click to select the
Delegate can see my private items check box.
Click OK two times.
If the user needs the "send as" permission, you may need to do it on Exchange. If you have any questions about granting the user "send as" permission, you can post a question in Exchange forum:

Hostname.local and undeliverable email

Hello
im having essentially 2 questsions.
1) somehow myhostname (/etc/postfix/main.cf) got set to hostname.local preventing local delivery as this didnt match the email address [email protected] I couldnt figure out how this happend. The only thing I did at this time I added a virtual domain virtual.domain.TLD. And I couldnt figure out how to set myhostname via serveradmin.
2) undeliverable email copy: i dont find this emailadress in any file in /etc/postfix/*. And here the address cannot be set to [email protected] it is always changed back to user@host. Where host is the hostname of the mail server even if i try [email protected] Why ?
Any ideas ?

1. Change the hostname back. Mine was changed as well when I made some setting changes to iChat and then I changed it back.
2. I know that in my experience it has always wanted to send to a user on the hostname. What you can do is just create a user just for the undeliverable email (i.e. postmaster) and then in Workgroup Manager just set that user to forward mail to whatever email address you would like.

Problem with replies in Maverick's mail. Originating emails send fine. When replying to an email (various addresses) the reply is hung up and can not be sent. Option becomes put in draft, delete, etc. Any suggestions would be helpful

Problem with replies in Maverick's mail. Originating emails send fine. When replying to an email (various addresses) the reply is hung up and can not be sent. Option becomes put in draft, delete, etc. Any suggestions would be helpful. Mid 2013 iMac.

I don't know how rare this is. I went a week or so without a problem, and now it's starting to recur. Also, in some instances, an email will look unsent (remain in the outbox on the Treo), but it has been sent, and recipients are replying while I'm trying to figure out what is going on. Further, it will send the same email over and over during this madness.
This is a show stopper. If there isn't a software fix soon, I may chuck this phone in the garbage.
Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)
UPDATE: The problem comes and goes. The next day, no changes to the treo, everything workeds. Now i'm suspecting the sprint server, and how it/the phone responds from failing to send while roaming. I've since turned off roaming, and haven't had a problem for several days.

At least I understand, but the functionality does not match what the manual says. When functionality does not match the manual it is a BUG.
What if I do not want to use IMAP or Exchange? I do not like being forced to use technology I do not trust.
No, it is not a bug. It is working as designed. And there is noting in the manual that staes you can create folders for a POP account.
You do know that any email sent through a POP account stays on the provider's server (often for years) even if you delete it from your inboxes, right? Completely beyond your control. Refusing to use an IMAP service doesn't protect you from anything.

How do I ensure mail is sent from the correct email account? I have two set up on my iPad, and it seems to choose which one to use somewhat randomly. This has happened both when using Mail and when emailing form another app.

I have two email accounts set up on my iPad -- one I use & one I monitor for a disabled person. On several occasions, mail I have composed and sent from my email account was sent showing the other account as the sender. This has happened both from within Mail and when emailing from other apps, such as Safari, Photos, etc. Any idea what is going on and how to prevent this from happening?

Are you confirming your POP account is selected as the sending email account before the message is sent?
And regardless if the email is a new email or is replying to or forwarding an email received by the POP account and cofirming the POP acconut is selected as the sending email account, the message is sent by the Gmail account?
All message sent by the POP account are sent by the Gmail account?
If so, delete the Gmail account from your iPad and test if a message sent with your POP account which will be the only email account available with the iPad's Mail app is recieved from your POP account/address.
If not, something else is wrong or on play that has nothing to do with the iPad.

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

How can I find out the mail server from email address?

Hi:
How can I find out the mail server from email address?
for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
THANK YOU

You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

TS3276 mail stop receiving emails after os update

Since I updated my mountain lion, my mail stop receiving emails, I still got them on my iphone so i don;t know what's wrong with my mac. my chrome freezes and youtube videos start freezing as well.. there must be something wrong with the update!!

What happened when you took the steps suggested in the support article?

I can't find older emails in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT I am able to see them on my Mac Mail version of email. sent emails are OK.

... for the past few months i have noticed that emails in my inbox Yahoo mail account older than a few weeks keep disappearing. i cannot find them in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT i can see them on my Mac Mail version of email. Emails that i have stored into folders in my yahoo account are still there... same with my sent emails... it's just the Inbox emails.. strange, very strange. I don't know how to 'move' the emails from my Mac Mail back to my Yahoo account.

Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look.
