Sending - "The message you atternpted to send was deterrnined to be sparn"

Hi,
You can get this response even on a personal email with nothing spam-like. 
==================================================
(User) - Verizon, 1 messages left lo send , [Time]  information
There has been an error transferring your rnail I said and then the SMTP Server (outgoing verizon.net) said      550 5 71 The message you atternpted lo send was deterrnined lo be sparn. Please visit http //www verizon.net/sparnfaq for rnore inforrnalion
===================================================
The Verizon recommended email fix does nothing.
[email protected]
So I sent the email to another address of my own, to troubleshoot, and then started taking out sections, to see what was triggering the spam.
Turned out to be a link to an encyclopedia entry
http://haydock1859.tripod.com/id94.html
In fact, it was a string in there, since it occurred even with a string like:
"haydock1859.tripod.com/id94"
with no url hot link.  I did not check further to see if "tripod" was the actual "spam offense".  Once I took out the line, the email went fine. 
Since this has only happened about twice in hundreds of emails sent, the problem at this time is annoying but not disastrous, however it is a reflection on Verizon, showing a type of bureaucratic stagnation and incompetence. (Never had any such problem with TWC.)
Anyway,  I suggest my method for finding out the cause.  I use Eudora as my sender, and it makes it clear to me whether the mail was sucessfully sent.  This is probably true for all solid email sending programs.

Since Tripod is a free website provider, I would assume that many messages with tripod.com links would be marked as spam. The Spam Filter is a dynamic system that changes depending on what users think is spam. If it sees urls including "tripod.com" marked as spam enough times, it makes sense that it would eventually start blocking them.
Verizon can't just tell you how to get around their spam filter, because then it wouldn't stop any spammers.
Some people have suggested sending the message to [email protected] for investigation. This may work for you as well.

    This is what I get when I was trying to reply to a client's email.
    First, you block me from using my company's SMTP. Second, you identify my very important business email as a SPAM.
    What's next? VERIZON!!!
    WHAT'S NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Doesn't your company support secure e-mail on alternate ports? Using the default SMTP port with no encryption isn't a smart move anyways.
    Just a thought. I don't quite use ISP e-mail so I can't chime into this issue too much, but I think there is a spam detector e-mail Verizon has for this which you can send mail to in order to report a false positive.

  • How can I get TB in my Mac to ask me before sending the messages in Outbox?

    Something has changed and TB is now sending the messages I created to Send Later (which are in the Outbox) without asking me as soon as I re-connect to a network (i.e., it correctly stores it into the Outbox but if my laptop loses the network-- because for example I close it to go home -- as soon as it reconnects it sends all messages without asking me).
    I have a Mac and I cannot find the Advanced > Network & Disc Space settings that (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1004514) indicates as the solution.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • You do not have the permission to send the message on behalf of the specified user

    We added a user object in AD 2003 which was created so multiple staff members could access the object's mailbox and reply to email from it while appearing as being from the new object. We then added 5 staff members to this object's mailbox rights giving
    full access to everyone including myself. I'm able to reply to email from this user's mailbox however a few others are not, instead getting "You do not have the permission to send the message on behalf of the specified user". The odd thing is I have
    the exact same permissions as those who receive the error.

    You need to set Send As permission to users that want to send mails on behalf the specified user.

  • Error message when sending mail : sending the message failed because you have exceeeded your sending limit"

    I was trying to email a link from a webpage I loaded in safari.  The email sits in my outbox with a red exclamation point.  WIll not send.  Keeping getting an error message sending the message failed because you have exceeded your sending limit

    "I keep getting a "you have exceeded your limit" on my email."
    No explanation, makes no sense, it's happening with others.
    I have to change (in my outgoing/unsent folder) my sending address from .mac to me.com. After reading the following helpful post:
    To get outbox individual mails sent, Try going to outbox, opening each email to edit and change sending email to [email protected] by clicking arrow in from line.  If [email protected] account does not show, go to settings > mail > icloud account > add "[email protected]"  And, until this issue is resolved, set mail to send from [email protected]

  • A copy has been placed in your outbox.  sending the message content to the server failed.  my iphone email

    I have been using my iphone for almost a year and after my email address was hacked yesterday by a diet berry fake email, i can send out an email from my phone.  I have removed, rebooted, removed, etc.....and changed my password, still can't send out an email.
    Error Message:  A copy has been placed in your outbox.  Sending the message content to the server failed.
    Thanks

    OR they are the right settings but you are trying to send through a different internet provider or 3G provider, that does not allow that SMTP server to send email.
    if I send email from 3g or someone elses wifi on a different ISP, it will not work, because it does not allow that server to be contacted. this is normal.
    What you want to do is setup a gmail account and use their SMTP server settings for the defauly outgoing server. that way you dont have to worry about this.

  • A copy has been placed in your outbox. sending the message content to the server failed

    all of the sudden my phone wont send emial but will receive them. I have tried everything suggested as far as turn on/off, delete acct and set it up again and nothing seems to be working. Can someone help me please?? the error message i receive is "a copy has been placed in your outbox. sending the message content to the server failed"

    I think what happened to me was that my yahoo account was compromised by http://thenextweb.com/insider/2013/01/07/yahoo-mail-users-hit-by-widespread-hack ing-xss-exploit-seemingly-to-blame/
    Yahoo responds to these reports at the end saying they fixed the issue.  I think what that my mobile yahoo mail was somehow blocked by yahoo because that was the device that i logged into right before (the hacker) blasted all of my inbox.  That is the only thing I can think of.  Exactly 24 hours later I was able to send email.  I did figure out that for the iPhone 4gs you can go into your settings and yahoo mail and change the outgoing server from yahoo to gmail if you have gmail set up on your phone and that will allow you to send from yahoo through gmail.  I also sent a feedback form to yahoo, that is the only way to contact them, and have heard nothing.  There is nothing about this on their support site.  So let us know if after 24 hrs you are magically able to send.   Yahoo really should use that log in history where they can see that a log in has occurred from a strange IP to block that and warn the user.   My log in history right before this happened went:  home IP in the US, home IP, homeIP, home IP, Morroco, home IP, home IP, etc.    So it is blatantly obvious.  My little software company can block IP's, I know yahoo can.

  • Enforce to send the messages pending, after the Time To Deliver is changed

    JMS Queue is being used to send data from our database to the headquarters’ database.
              Our organization considers using "Time To Deliver Override" during the scheduled downtime of the headquarters’ database. For example, when our admin is informed by the headquarters' admin that downtime is scheduled, our admin can change "Time To Deliver Override" from -1 to 1200000 (20 hrs) in WebLogic Consol. Then, when the database is back, our admin will reset the value to -1.
              It is simple and quick. However, I realized that the messages pending will not processed for the “Time To Deliver” which was configured when the message was added.
              Can WebLogic enforce to send the messages pending, after the "Time To Deliver Override" is changed back to -1?

    A few related points:
              - I think 9.x may provide mbean/JMX/administrative options to change time-to-deliver in existing messages - but, even if it does, this seems unwieldy.
              - 9.x also provides options for adminstratrively pausing delivery of a destinations messages, and/or pausing MDBs.
              - I think the "time-to-deliver override" also supports setting absolute times via cron like schedules (eg - you can configure it so messages are born at a specific time.)
              - Another option is to introduce an intermediate destination and configure a "messaging bridge" to forward messages between them. When messaging needs to be pause, administratively stop the bridge.

  • Sending the message content to the server failed. Attachment.

    So I've been a Eudora user for more than a decade and just thought I'd try Mail and have been using it for about a month. This evening I was in the midst of writing messages and about halfway through, Mail would no longer send outgoing messages that contain attachments (I had sent messages earlier in the evening with attachements). I just get a response that says, "Sending the message content to the server failed." I have no problem sending messages that don't have an attachment.
    I have two separate email accounts that I use. For both I use my own domain as the smtp server which is hosted through aplushosting.com. It's smtp.riversandcreeks.com. Server port is set to 25 and authentication is set to none. Everything has worked fine until this evening (and it literally stopped halfway through my evening email session so I'm sure this is not related to a system upgrade or other software changes).
    I have spent about two hours trying all different settings. I tried changing authentication, screwed around with Network settings, and did just about anything I could think of (or read about trying after doing several searches on this board). I also trashed the Outbox in my Library and restarted the machine.
    In one of the posts where someone seemed to be having the same problem, I saw something about changing the MTU setting but I'm not familiar with what that means and there was not enough background to explain.
    My service provider is Comcast (just use them for the high speed connection but not the mail services) and I have one of their older RCA modems hooked into a wireless router that I access via airport.
    If anyone has suggestions (or can refer me to other posts on this forum I may have missed please let me know).
    Thanks!

    However, there are
    too many variables in your setup to yet be sure of
    the cause.
    Agreed. There are too many variables and they only seem to increase...
    You describe your modem as older, but you have not
    reported the make of router?
    It's a Microsoft router (my other half's employer). It has worked fine though for more than two years.
    Does it have ethernet
    ports, as well as wireless? If so, do you have a
    cable to test without wireless?
    Yes, tried all that.
    Have you tried powering down modem, router and Mac
    for a couple of minutes, and then powering back up,
    beginning with the modem, and then router?
    Yes, tried that too.
    MTU may be a factor, but the way things changed in
    mid sending, is a little odd, and it is not as
    frequently a factor with wireless. Later, I can give
    you a link that may help check MTU and wireless, but
    I need to research a bit on that.
    Do you have a Comcast address, and could you set up
    that Comcast account for a test?
    That would be another project but I suppose I could call Comcast and figure it out and it may provide some additional insight. However that will not solve the problem as I am highly mobile and am using different hot spots on a daily basis. I was down at the Apple Store and tried on their wireless network (so presumably eliminating all the variables with my home network and isp and on the most Mac-friendly network I can find). Same problem. Messages with attachments won't go out but all other messages will. I do get a slightly different error message there. It says "Verify that you have addressed this message correctly. Check your SMTP server settings in Mail Preferences and verify any advanced settings with your system administrator." I also have a ticket with my hosting service. They say they have not made any recent changes that would result in this problem. Will keep pursuing with them too to see if they have additional ideas.
    I'm really perplexed as to what would be distinguishing between mail with attachments vs. those without. As an additional test I fired up Eudora and I can send out attachments fine.

  • Is it possible to temporarily turn off receiving group messaging?  If so what will the people sending the message see?

    Is it possible to temporarily turn off receiving group messaging?  If so what will the people sending the message see?

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Is it possible to temporarily turn off the wireless signal being emitted from an Airport Extreme whilst still remaining connected to the internet via ethernet? If so, what do you need to do to turn off the wireless signal?
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab located just under the row of icons
    Wireless Mode = None
    Update to save your new settings
    You can reverse the process to turn the wireless back on when you are ready.
    Also, how strong is the wireless signal? If placed in a basement of a residential property, is it likely that the signal would reach two floors above?
    It's just not possible to accurately predict wireless performance in advance for any installation. A guess would be that the signal will be very weak, and likely unusable, but you won't know for sure until you try it out in your house.

  • Cannot send email via AOL on iPad2 - "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."

    My CEO has an ipad2 and I set it up w/ AOL.  She cannot send any email via her AOL account from her iPad.  She gets a message that says "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."   We've tried it on wifi and on 3G (Verizon version).  I've removed the account and added it, I've tried setting it up as an IMAP account vs. using Apples standard AOL mail setting and nothing seems to work.  The SMTP settings are smtp.aol.com, port 587.  I've tried adding an alternate server/smtp, but I haven't been able to find anything that works.  Any advice or other people having this issue?  It works fine sending an email from her aol web mail.  And unfortunately, having her sign up for a gmail account is not an option.  Thanks

    Interesting.  Firstly I have been on AOL since the early 90s with no current intention to switch as my primary personal email account.
    I have two email accounts on my iphone - AOL and my email from my business website.  I deleted both and then recreated first the business account and then the AOL account.  Same error.  Then I wasn't sure what you suggested but I turned off the AOL SMTP server and selected the business email SMTP server by turning it on with the same result.  I still get the error "A Copy has been placed in your Outbox.  Sending the mssage content to the server failed."
    Perhaps this problem will get fixed by IOS 6.   AOL will not talk to me unless I pay and Apple says its not their problem.  So for the time being I use the AOL web interface in the iPhone's Safari to send emails from the phone.
