Numeric IP in Recipient Email Address

Hi all,
I am doing some migration work to Messaging Server 2005Q4. I am wondering if it's possible to configure MS to accept recipient email addressses containing IP address rather than the domain name, such as, [email protected]?
I tried but got bounced back saying 550 5.1.2 unknown host or domain...
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

yes. the format, "[email protected]" is an invalid mail address. It cannot be received. No mail client should be emitting these. You should not be accepting them.

I need to extract Recipient Email Addresses - is it impossible?

Hi I spent way too much time tonight trying to solve this problem, I hope someone brilliant can help.
I have a web store, and am CC'd on the receipts sent to my customers. So I have accumulated a large mailbox full of emails addressed to recipients other than myself.
I now need to extract those recipient email addresses into a .txt file.
Through my travels I discovered the simple script below. It's awesome except that it only works for sender addresses! When I try to tweak the code to extract recipient addresses it gives me an error.
Can anyone either modify this code, or point me in the right direction?
I just can't believe this should be so hard! (And it probably isn't except for me.)
Thanks.

Nice! Austin Kinsella1 your script works well but in some cases return this:
<Undisclosed-Recipient:;@studio.com>
I think this mail was sended with multiple addresses.
Try this one, I made some little changes.
Good Luck!

may not be responding.�
When i trying to open xls and PDF file
Expected Result:
All type of file attachments should be supported with all valid email address
(servers).
Pls help me about this senario:
What is problem in this case:
I am sending code
Session session =getSession(host,port,secure);
session.setDebug(this._debug);
               Transport trans = connect(host,port,session,userID,password);
               Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
               InternetAddress[] iAddr = null;
               message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(fromName));
               iAddr = InternetAddress.parse(toUserName, true);
               message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, iAddr);
               message.setSubject(subject);
               //BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
               Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
               MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart=null;
if(dataLocation!=null && dataLocation.equalsIgnoreCase("ATTACHMENT")){
                    String tmpName=fileName;
                    if( inputstream != null)
                              tmpName = makeAttachment(fileName,inputstream);
                    messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
                    DataSource source = new FileDataSource(tmpName);
                    messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
                    fileName = fileName.replace('\\', '/');
                    fileName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1,
                              fileName.length());
                    messageBodyPart.setFileName(fileName);
                    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

First, when sending your message, the filename should be a simple
filename, not containing any directory names.
It sounds like your mail server might be doing some special
processing of attachments, perhaps to prevent viruses.

I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address" was rejected by server by sever

I get a error when I send a Email. Recipient "email@address" was rejected by server by sever

I set up my email the way the phone and iPad do. Very simple. It works most the time, but I am usually on wifi also. I ran into problem saying email was rejected by server, and it put email in my outbox. I looked in here to see if anyone had a good solution, then realized after reading the post I never actually checked my servers. My actual servers were different than the defaults that were set up. Example : the default server was mail.roadrunner.com, but the actual should be pop-server.roadrunner.com, and same for the smpt-server.roadrunner.com. Based on the ISP, must have the correct servers. But I was always able to send while on wifi. That part I did not understand. But since I fixed the servers, I have not seen any problem sending on either the iPad or iPhone. If you have not found fix, hope this may help if still having problem

I get the following message when sending emails: The recipient "email address" was rejected by the server". If I send the email to 3 people, one will be rejected and a different person will be rejected. Any ideas?

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

Invalid Gift Unable to gift an item using iPhone 5s and iPad air, Error Message Invalid Gift. You must enter a valid recipient email address.

This has been going on for quite a while. I am able to send/purchase gifts from my iMac however; when I attempt to purchase a gift on my iPhone 5s (iOS 7.0.4) or my iPad Air (iOS 7.0.4 ) i get the following error message:
Invalid Gift
You must enter a valid recipient email address.
This happens no matter what email address I type in. Once this message comes up you can only select "OK". It never let's me finish my purchase.
Any ideas?

Iphone 4S- getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", any one a suggestion?

I have tried everything from reading different online suggestions (that is going into setting-mail, contacts, etc. and look at outgoing server and making sure setting is correct...) and still getting "the recipient email address was rejected by the server", I have tried resetting network and also hard reboot. Nothing seems to work and would greatly appreciate any new suggestion?
Thank you.

It could be a typo in the 'return adress' field, a setup problem by the sender of the email. Unless you can reply to the same email sometimes successfully. Have a look at the actual address you are trying to send to, often he errors are obvious.

Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

Yes - gifts are sent to an email address not to the iTunes account, the email has a redemption code in it which the recipient then redeems. The recipient needs to be in the same country as yourself, he/she won't be able to redeem it if their account is in a different country's store.

Hiding Recipient email addresses from view in a group email

I want to compose 1 email which I'll send to a group of 10 email addresses, but I don't want the list of email addresses to be included in the email the recipient receives when I send the email. Is this possible?

Actually, one doesn't even need to address it to one's self or anyone else in the "To:" line. If all recipients are "BCC'ed," the email shows up addressed "To: undisclosed recipients"

Choosing a specific recipient email address (Work, Home, Other)

What is the easiest way to send an email to an individual recipient (rather than a group) using a specific type of email address (e.g. Work, as opposed to Home or Other)?
I would think the type of address would be visible when addressing an email, but I cannot find it anywhere.
The best way I have found is to launch the Address Book, search for the recipient, right-click on the appropriate email address, and choose Send Email. Is it possible to do this from within Mail itself?
Thanks,
-b

Is it possible to do this from within Mail itself?
Of course! It's easier.
1. Launch Mail.
2. Open a New Message window
3. If you've previously sent email to the address you want, start typing the name of the person in the To: field and a list of possible matches will appear; you can select the one you want. Otherwise, click on the Address Book icon at the top of the message window; select the person/address you want to send to from the list of entries and what you want it to be: To: CC, or BCC.
4. Enter a Subject for your email.
5. Compose your email and Send it.

Defining a default recipient email address in Address Book

As far as I can tell, there is not an explicit way to define one email address as a default, if more than one are associated with a contact in the Address Book.
Some things I have tried or considered include:
(a) using Edit>Edit Distribution List, selecting All, and selecting defaults (doesn't work),
(b) creating hundred of separate groups for each of the hundreds of contacts with multiple email addresses in my Address Book, and using Edit>Edit Distribution List to select the default email to use for each group (lots of work, lots of clutter, hard to maintain),
(c) adding the default email address twice and using the one that appears twice in the list (the duplicated email address only appears once in the list that appears when addressing an email),
(d) deleting all email addresses except one (with associated loss of data),
(e) cutting and pasting all non-default emails to the Notes field (with associated loss of recognition of those addresses by the junk filter and inability to use them to send emails),
(f) copying the default email address to the Notes field, and always sending email by opening Address Book, finding the recipient, noting the default email based on what is in Notes, right-clicking the matching email address, and choosing Send Mail (yuck),
(g) defining a custom email type called "default" to flag the default email address (loss of information about whether default email is Home/Work/Other, does not show up in Mail, does not export to Bento, does not export to FileMaker Pro through Bento),
(h) exporting Address Book data from Bento to FileMaker Pro, manually adding a flag in FileMaker Pro to indicate the default email address, and always sending email by opening FileMaker Pro, finding the recipient, and sending email from the default email address (must constantly re-synchronize Address Book data with FileMaker without proper keys, difficult to maintain),
*(i )* giving up on Address Book, and send all emails from a FileMaker Pro database (with loss of Address Book synchronization capabilities, difficulty in adding new email addresses from Mail, etc.).
It should not be this hard to accomplish such a basic task.
1) Is there a direct way to flag one email address as default that I have missed?
2) Does anyone have any other workarounds or tricks that might work?
Thanks,
-b

This "feature" of Entourage doesn't "just work"; it works only in the context of what the Entourage programmers have designed, and not what Apple has thought of designing into their system applications. Expecting them to be the same is a fantasy.
Whether or not a feature "just works" is defined by a user's experience. When you view a list of email addresses for a contact in Entourage address book, one of them is bold (the same visual feedback that Apple uses when selecting a default email address for Groups). Adjacent to the email addresses is a button that says "Make Default". If you select a different address and click this button, the new email address turns bold, and the next time you address an email to that contact it is automatically selected when you type enough of a contact's name. It probably took me no more than 30 seconds to figure out the first time I saw it, and it automatically selects the correct default address (the one I told it to use) for years without further intervention by me.
In my experience this feature just works, without regard for which company the programmers work for, even though it "works only in the context of what the Entourage programmers have designed", despite the fact that Apple programmers didn't think of it, and without needing to compare it to any other program.
Mulder wrote:
You can't do that, as long as you have multiple addresses stored in Address Book for each contact, and they continue to send you email from various email addresses. Mail and Address Book share information, so when you type enough of a contact's email address to find it in Mail, you can select it as the email address to use, but not as a default, since you already have multiple email addresses stored from these people.
I am fully aware that I can't select a default address in the current version of Address Book. But it is preposterous (and a bit insulting to Apple programmers) if you are suggesting that the programmers "can't do that, as long as you have multiple addresses stored in Address Book". In fact, they have already done it for groups. They were also smart enough to find an intuitive way to control the default sender email and default signature for users who use multiple email accounts and signatures.
Mulder wrote:
If you delete the others and tell them not to email you except from the one address you want to use, that would solve your problem.
That is what I meant by the tail wagging the dog (changing the behavior of not only me but multiple people in my Address Book to get around a missing software feature).
Mulder wrote:
No, you didn't choose it years ago before Mail existed. Mail has existed for over 20 years, and from Day 1 of Mac OS X, so the idea that Entourage preceded it is nonsense.
Nonsense might be a little harsh. In 2000 I compared several email clients before deciding to go with Entourage. This was a year before Mac OS X was released in 2001. That was when I first heard of Apple Mail, and at least according to Wikipedia Apple Mail was derived from NextMail rather than from previous Apple development. I was using System 6 in 1988, and if Apple had an email program back then I was not aware of it (that is about the time Eudora was first written). I also do not remember running into it when I was in charge of selecting an email client to install on all of our departmental Macintoshes in the early 1990's.
At any rate, what I said was "I chose it years ago (before Mail existed) because...". In other words, my point was that my decision to use a Microsoft email program was made before Apple Mail was an option for me to use on my Macintosh computers.

Thanks. I gave up on providing feedback to big companies like Microsoft years ago, but I will give it a try with Apple.

Stop Validation of Recipient email address

Is there anyway to stop Java Mail from parsing the recipients email address. We use a program called faxmaker with exchange and I am trying to write an email program that we can send faxes with. Faxmaker requires the email recipient to be sent in this format [faxmaker:faxnumber]. When I try this an exception is thrown becuase it is not in proper email address format. Can someone please help. I have been beating my head against the wall all day!!
Thanks,
Paul

I have been trying to answer the same question using fax sp.
I read on a forum that the following may work, (didn't for fax sp).
"\"[faxmaker:faxnumber]\""
or
"\"faxmaker:faxnumber\""

How to get rid of ancient recipient email addresses in Mail??

This question has nothing to do with Address Book. My AB entries are up to date. However, one particular person I email frequently has probably had ten different addresses in the past few years. All of them still show up in Mail when I start to type his name in "To". I have to be careful to choose the right one, since his current, in-use address doesn't always show up at the top of the list (in fact, it seldom does). None of the old addresses are in my Address Book, it's somehow taking them from very old emails that have long (loooooong) since been trashed and the trash emptied. We're talking email addresses that go back years in some cases.
Anybody else experience this, or know how to delete out all of those old, out of date, unused addresses?

Jennings Heilig,
In Mail, choose Window>Previous Recipients>Remove From List.

Which recipient email address will thunderbird use for mailshot

When doing a mailshot to a list of addresses, several have multiple email addresses on what basis does Thunderbird decide which to use?

TB will use whatever address is displayed in the mailing list when you double-click (open) the list. If the address was added by dragging a contact from an address book onto the list icon, the 'Email' address is added, not the 'Additional Email' or any other entry. You can edit a mailing list entry or create a new one manually by typing it in.
You could create multiple address book entries for a person, with the only difference being the 'Email' address, e.g. Joe Work has his work address in the 'Email' box, Joe Home has his home address in the 'Email' box etc. For that purpose, [https://freeshell.de//~kaosmos/morecols-en.html MoreFunctionsForAddressBook] adds an 'Edit as new' option to the contact right-click menu to quickly make duplicates.
