Senders receiving delivery failure notifications

ive been waiting nearly a month to resolve this and it has been over a week since i was forwarded to a "product specialist"
my mail is arriving fine but my senders are receiving notification of delivery failure and the odd thing is the notice has an address similar to mine but slightly different:instead of [email protected] it reads
[email protected]
is this happening to anyone else? and can anyone advise me of how to get the immediate attention of .mac support? its gotten so bad i am now receiving snail mail advising me that i have an invalid email address and until i send a valid address i will be cut off from important stuff!!!

Oh, and far as the headers?
they all look pretty normal. Nothing about macv.com in any of those, EXCEPT the ones that come from the mystery domain bounces.
this headers include these lines:

  • Receiving delivery failure notifications..spam

    My .mac email address is sending back delivery notifications of messages I haven't sent.  I am also now unable to send mail as it looks like I have exceeded some sort of limit.  How do I clear and reset my mail without losing the email address?

  • I'm getting mail delivery failure notifications quoting email addresses I don't recognize. Is someone using my server identity?

    Hi. I've been getting several email delivery failure notifications recently. I don't recognize the email addresses quoted. Is it possible that someone has hacked into my mail account?

    Either that, or someone is forging your reply address on mail that wasn't sent from your account at all. To tell the difference, you would have to log into your mail account on the Web and check for unusual activity.

  • 90.000 incoming spam delivery failures a day - how do I defend myself?

    My server gets 90.000 delivery failure notifications daily.
    A spammer has decided to use random fake "from" adresses from my domain and send their junk to non existing adresses all over the world.
    They don't end in my inbox because postfix rejects them. For each attempt it leaves 3 lines in my log files like this:
    Nov 23 14:01:48 echoone postfix/smtpd[26561]: connect from relay.milio.com[213.33.179.194]
    Nov 23 14:01:48 echoone postfix/smtpd[26561]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from relay.milio.com[213.33.179.194]: 550 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; from= to=<[email protected]> proto=SMTP helo=<relay.milio.com>
    Nov 23 14:01:48 echoone postfix/smtpd[26561]: disconnect from relay.milio.com[213.33.179.194]
    This makes my mac mini slow when I send mail, and I think that bad things will happen if it gets worse.
    Can anybody beat my 90.000 incoming rejected spams a day - and is rejecting this with postfix sufficient?
    It has been going on for weeks - and I did not notice it until I dug into why my server took 15 seconds to send even tiny emails.
    Why do they do this?
    Non existing email adressees don't read spam - nor do I !!!
    Good they don't use my real email address - yet.

    A spammer has decided to use random fake "from"
    adresses from my domain and send their junk to non
    existing adresses all over the world.
    This unfortunately is common practice. It's not that they send to non-existing adresses only. It's just that you only get the bounces for the non-existant ones, since he used a from adress from your domain.
    Most spammers just use harvested e-mail addresses. They do not pay the money for proper e-mail databases that have to some extent been verified. What counts are the numbers. If they send 10'000'000 mails, they couldn't care less if 90'000 are non-existant (would be different if they had to buy stamps .
    They don't end in my inbox because postfix rejects
    them.
    Which is good and unfortunately about the only thing you can do to avoid these mails end up in your queue.
    This makes my mac mini slow when I send mail, and I
    think that bad things will happen if it gets worse.
    Nothing bad happens because of rejected e-mails per se.
    The only thing to consider is that a mini (and in particular its harddisk) are not designed for the high and constant level of I/O operations of a mail server.
    Can anybody beat my 90.000 incoming rejected spams a
    day - and is rejecting this with postfix sufficient?
    Not only is it sufficient, but there isn't really anything else you can do. Even if you use other means of rejection like access list or spam filters, it's still your server being hit. So it is best to reject at the postfix level.
    At least in a one server environment, I don't see what else you could do. A firewall or router can only reject at the IP level, but since you say these mails are bounces, they will come in from thousands of different IPs.
    Not the answer you wanted, I know. Just the harsh reality of the internet. It is time for digital signatures to prevent sender spoofing, but it is not gonna happen for quite some time unfortunately.

  • Delivery failures when sending to mail contacts in O365

    We are in the middle of a migration from Domino to Exchange (O365) and have updated the GAL with entries from our local active directory.  These entries include email addresses using only a few of the domains that are hosted by our Domino
    environment - but not all.
    People who have been migrated to Exchange receive delivery failures when replying to an email from someone who is still in Domino. 
    Example:
    User Bob who has been migrated to O365 gets an email from User Ann who is still in Domino.   When User Bob does a reply, User Ann's address populates with
    User_Ann AT MAINDOMINODOMAIN dot com  (Please note - the @ signe was substitued with AT and the .com was substitued with dot com) because I got an error when trying to submit this. Error - Body text cannot contain images or links until we are bable
    to verify your account.)
    User Ann is defined in the O365 GAL as a mail contact with these email addresses:
    User_Ann AT dominodomain1 dot com
    User_Ann AT dominodomain2 dot com
    User_Ann AT dominodomain3 dot com
    User Bob gets a delivery failure.
    Why?

    Hi,
    In order to resolve the problem more efficiently, I recommend you ask your question in the Exchange Online (Office 365) Forum. You might get a better answer in the Office 365 forum.

  • Why do senders receive a delivery failure notice although messages are being received?

    Why do senders receive a delivery failure notice although messages are being received?

    What you have there is either a jailbroken unit with some crazy custom UI or an eastern knockoff. Give us some photos of the ipad itself, mainly the back and some experts can help.
    If you plug it into iTunes does iTunes even acknowledge that an ipad is connected? If it does then try a restore.
    Failing that, head down to an apple store and see what they can do for you.

  • Watches/Notifications vs. JMS Delivery Failures

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to configure an automatic email notification (using a custom WL diagnostic module) for all unexpected errors taking place at the level of my application server. For most errors, this seems to work just fine.
    Unfortunately, JMS delivery failures (i.e. message redirected to error destination due to timeout or error on consumer-side) do not (yet?) seem to show-up in my WebLogic server log and consequently do not cause any of my server log watchers to fire and send-out a corresponding mail. They shows-up in the JMS server log, though.
    So here come my questions:
    1) In general, whats the best way to include JMS delivery failures in my WebLogic email notifications?
    2) How to make sure JMS delivery failures get included in my standard WebLogic server log, as well?
    3) How to define a diagnostic watcher that triggers on each message added to the JMS server log itself?
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

  • Sender receiving endless mail delivery system notifications

    For the past 25 hours (or so) a friend has been receiving REPEATED messages from Mail Delivery System saying:
    "This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. Delivery to the following recipeints is still under way after 25.6 hour(s.): [email protected] Will keep trying and contact you if the message can't be delivered permanently."
    How can I/she stop these? She eventually resent the message and all is well, but that original notification regarding the original message is still out there and driving her crazy. DOZENS of these things are being sent by Mail.

    How can I/she stop these?
    You can't. Eventually they'll time out and stop. Meanwhile you can create a Mail rule to delete the notices automatically.

  • IOS DEVICES receiving iCoud Possword failure Notifications

    I am submitting this issue for a relative who is unable to use her Apple ID because fails.  My cousin owns  two IOS DEVICES; IPad and iPhone    and is experiencing receiving "ICloud password failure" notifications on both devices.  I submitted her issue to the iCloud Forum and received no replies and I hope the iPad Forum can offer some type of recommendation to solve this issue.  Several weeks ago she changed her Apple ID password because of a possible Security breach and she believes the change was successful.  I recommended she attempt to to change her password again and re-input her information into her IOS devices. When attempting to make the password change, she received the Security Question she originally answered , but her answer this time failed.  Can the iPad Forum offer a resolution or a recommendation as my cousn's next step of action.

    You have to make sure that Port 5223  is open for your iOS devices
    If you support push notifications and want Apple mobile devices to receive push notifications over your Wi-Fi network, you also need to open port 5223 on your enterprise Wi-Fi network. Port 5223 is an outbound TCP port used by the Apple Push Notification
    Service (APNS). The mobile device initiates the connection. For details, see

  • Delivery Failure/Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed issues

    Anyone getting  hundreds of emails that seem to have been sent from your mac.com account but you haven't them or know any of the receipents? Delivery failure messages are coming from [email protected] and [email protected] 
    I was on the phone with Apple Express Lane and the support tech tried really hard to help me but couldn't.  He is asking me to figure out who sent the email and tell them to stop.  I'm no techogeek and don't even know where to start.
    Does anyone know how to stop these fraudulent emails from cloggin up my email on all my devices?
    I get from 50-100 a day and it is really annoying to delete them everyday.

    Too lazy to hand jam the whole header...Any help, suggestions etc to stop this annoyance? 

    When people receive emails which appear to come from their own address but they haven't sent they naturally tend to be concerned: however it's most unlikely that anyone has hacked their account, they've just been targeted by one of two common spammers' techniques: both arise because it's all too easy to forge the 'from' address on messages to be something other than the real one.
    There are two things that can happen. One is that the sender has forged the 'from' address to be the same as the 'to' address (so other people will see it coming from themselves, not you), presumably in the hope of confusing spam filters. It's harmless, if extremely annoying. Delete it (never ever answer spam or try to unsubscribe from it), and you don't need to be worried about it.
    The other problem - which appears to be what is affecting you - is that a spammer is forging your address as the 'from' address on a whole batch of messages. The first thing you hear about this is when you start getting bounce messages because the spam has been sent to non-existent addresses and is being bounced to you. There's no point at all in responding to it. It's infuriating but normally stops after a bit as they move on to another forged address.
    There isn't really anything you can do about it: closing the account isn't really worth the hassle unless you are totally swamped, because you will have to tell everyone your new address. Apple can't really do any more than they already are about spam.

  • Edit subject for "Delivery Status Notification Failure"-messages

    We have an Ironport c160 and I wonder if it is possible to edit the subject for the the automatic reply email instead of Delivery Status Notification Failure? We have a content management system (CMS) and I would like to have the ticket number in the subject, just the way it does when the reply is from our internal Exchange server. For example Undeliverble message case #1234-1234567 instead of Delivery Status Notification Failure.
    Regards,
    Peter Bengtslin

    Sounds like someone is spoofing spam from your e-mail address. They do not need to have access to your account. Spammers nearly always put a fake address on the To line, and sometimes they pick an address from their databases as that "fake." So they're putting your address on a fake To line in their e-mails and you're getting the bounces.
    It could be possible that they have hacked your e-mail account, and to protect against that possibility you should change the password on that account. However, this is probably not what has happened.
    Note that this has absolutely nothing to do with your Mac, and there are no viruses for the Mac and only a handful of very rare trojans. See my [Mac Virus guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/macvirus> for more details.

  • Regd delivery failures

    Hi All,
    I have gone thru the chain of mails and got confused.
    We would like to implement applicaiton sending email.As part of this we would like to trace the email delivery.
    Wt I understood from the posting is there is no guaranteed way that message is delivered or not.Though we added some headers,the receiver server may block sending receipts.Plz correct me if my understanding is wrong?
    Also woudl like ot know while sending mail senders SMTP servers returns any message id or something unique.
    And if we recieve a delivery failure can we identify with that unique id which message was not delivered ..something like this.Bcoz applicaiton will be sending many mails with same sender id and reciever id on same day.
    Please provide your inputs on the best design also.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Goodspeed

    Hi Shanon,
    Thanks for your reply.I am actually not looking for detialed desgin.
    Just want to konw ur thoughts as ur an expert in this mail API.
    Ok no problem I will do that.
    I have done POC on sending email.its workign fine.But havent done on 'Receivng mail/Failures".
    And moreover POP and IMAP are disabled at my end and mail porgram is on HP unix.
    So, hwo can I read mail now. Java mail API support any ohter way of reading mail Or I have to have local mail id on unix and have to read sendmail messsage file for failure messages.

  • TS3276 Mail Delivery Failure Msgs for emails I Never Sent

    On Feb 7 I received 37 Mail Delivery Failure messages, but I never sent any of these emails.  I was not even on my Time Warner email account that day.  This is a recurring issue.  Any suggestions?

    Potential Spam. I would also change my e-mail password just in case your account has been hacked.

  • No Delivery Failure notices using Exchange

    When a delivery fails, I do not receive a failure notice in Mail.app. I do, however receive a notice when I check the same account using Entourage. Using Mail 2.1.1 on OS 10.4.8, accessing Exchange 2007 server.

    I have the same problem as well. (Grrrr.)
    A workaround appears to be to configure the account as an ordinary IMAP account instead of an Exchange account. This works on our Exchange server, at least. The undeliverable notifications actually show up then.
    I don't know what the downside of doing this is.
    (This isn't a new problem; see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3360554&#3360554 for instance.)
