Windows Mail server error 501

Every time I foreword an address or web page etc. using the "File" E-Mail Link the following happens. The e-mail is sent but there are five old error messages shown below. The e-mail goes trough but I have to hit the [close] box to clear the sent message. I can't figure out how to remove the old rejected e-mail addresses.
Here is a copy of the message.
The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the "I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.
The rejected e-mail address was '*****@picturetrail.comAccount:2051017:return'. Subject 'Account:2051017:return', Account: 'Dave's Mail', Server: 'smtp.att.yahoo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '501 Syntax error in arguments', Port: 465, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 501, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

This has nothing to do with Firefox. Mail is being rejected as you have set up your mail in a wrong way with incorrect ports etc.. Please contact the appropriate people for this issue and not here.

MFE - Server Error 501 Not Implemented - Help Pls

Hi,
I have a Nokia E71 with MFE (latest version) installed and set up with the correct connection and credentials etc
Once i have run through the set up process i get an error which in the logs is viewed as follows:
PeakTime active
Setting OFFLINE Status to False
Missing Protocol Version Header. Reverting to EAS 2.0
HTTP Server Error 501: NotImplemented
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

For anyone else who encounters this post, if you're synchronizing your device to an Exchange 2007 server, please try placing a new email in your exchange Inbox to see if that corrects the problem. This error is commonly encountered after a device synchronizes data using a synchronization application other than MfE.
If placing a new item in your Exchange Inbox doesn't work, please power off, then on your device, select MfE > Options > Full resync to synchronize your data.

Windows mail server migration

Hi all,
I have a client who wants to migrate his windows mail server to Mac OS X Tiger. Is it possible? If yes, how?
Thanks in advance
regards,
Pradeep
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

We migrated from MS Exchange 2000 to OS X Server Mail, just 15 users but tons of gigabytes of mail. What i did:
-set up IMAP on Exchange 2000 (we already used it), all mail has to be stored on the server
-set up Mail Service on OS X
-set up User Accounts on OSX Server, activated Mail for each user
-synced each user account from an OS X client computer using "imapsync". It works like an IMAP client copying all mail to the new mail server, it can keep the seen flag and does not produce duplicate mails. there is a description how to invoke imapsync automatically for a list of users.
-did a reconstruct -r on OS X Server to be sure the mailboxes are clean
you can get imapsync via darwinports.
it's worth the work...

Windows Mail - Server Terminating Connection when ...

This is a message related to a very well established forum full of many, many irate BT customers. I'm posting this long standing complaint here because in the forum I speak of, we are all being totally ignored by BT.
BT, after months of dissatisfaction, can you (a) acknowledge / confirm the problem and (b) fix the problem.
Here is the link to the forum in question - 8 pages worth of extremely dissatisfied and angry posters:
http://community.bt.com/t5/Other-BB-Queries/Windows-Mail-Server-Terminating-Connection-when-download...
If you don't take action, I (and many others, I'm sure) will go public on this issue.
At the end of the day, we don't want to continue paying for service that doesn't deliver!

To both people who replied to my post - I know only to well what forums are for but I'm so angry that all our posts in the forum (the one with 8 pages worth) just evapourate into thin air. You have to question the intrinsic value of at least some of these forums. I don't speak by any means for all forums but in ours we are all at our wits end - and furious because we are paying good money to BT for a "service" that doesn't deliver.
It's not good enough despite you correcting me as to where I should and shouldn't post. Have a look at the forum and you'll see what I mean. Yes - we have supported one another but we now all know exactly what the pronblem is after many months. The Sage has made around 4 posts all of which advocate we should all change to IMAP but this is missing the whole point. Our BT e-mail service is supposed to work through POP3 and indeed BT has standard POP3 settings for mail clients.
Myself and numerous people have been through all the official help and support channels to no avail. Customer Service is really poor. They tell you to follow a standard set of instructions by way of a "fix" but they refuse to recognise the issues we have.
But to finish, where do we all go from here when (a) many people have known for months what the issue is - it's a BT Yahoo server-side problem and (b) many people have reported this long standing issue (since Feb-12 or earlier) through the official BT support channels and still nothing has been done.
OK. No more posts from me. I'm at my wits end and both your replies have discouraged me from participating any longer. Very disappointing.

Outgoing/offline mail server errors (143 /and/ SSL checked?)

i am trying to do this zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance thing where i go through all my umpteen accounts on my desktop and laptop and check all the umpteen settings to try and troubleshoot an outgoing mail server / "offline" errors in mac mail. this seems like it is isolated to mac mail it would be REALLY NICE if there was some organization in here (or at least an explanation) so that all the possible settings (and all the various locations for them) didn't mean this effort is like 35 factorial with respect to possible mistakes that can be made.
/anyway/ i am reading various threads and my ISP service provider recommends port 143 for IMAP but i am seeing threads responses that highly suggest using SSL. however, if i change the checkbox next to the 143 port entry to have SSL checked this automatically changes the port to 993.
now i am not sure whether to replace the 993 with 143 as suggested or to leave off the setting for SSL.
any suggestions so i can isolate this setting from the thousands of variables that could be the cause of this (orther than it being basically embedded in the software and impossible to fix for one reason or another)?
it will be a real pain to change this setting (3 separate steps) on 15 different accounts (45 steps) on two different computers (90 steps for this one single variable) and then have to change it back again.
THANKS

Please, help me.

Hello arnobeck, I would start with the basics, can you receive emails?
Everything bellow refers to settings under the mail service.
Are your Domain and Host names set to what you want? - General tab
Make sure Kerberos or CRAM-MD5 are checked. - Advanced tab
Check you have certificates selected for both SMTP SSL: and IMAP and POP SSL:. - Advanced tab
Check the certificates match the domain name set in the General tab. - Advanced tab
P.S. I'm not the most advanced with mail server service, but hopefully I can help.
Regards,
Graham

Mail Server Error: imtpunix[302]: DBERROR: critical database situation

This error shows up in the Mail Access log. Once the error occur mail services stop until the server is restarted. a reboot and a database rebuild takes care of thing, but the error keeps coming back. I haven't been able to find a pattern to when the error occurs although the last two nights it seems to have crapped out just about the time the nightly back ups (retrospect 6.1.126) run ... but that doesn't make sense because the volume containing the os and mail isn't part of the nightly backup.
In addition to serving as a mail server, this machine is hosting a small (extremely low volume website and shareing files for 7 users). Installation and file locations is all standard locations.
osx server 10.4.10 All latest server upgrades and security patches have been installed. disk permissions have been verified. disk space is >50% available.
any suggestions?

Sounds like OSX Server?

Mail Server Error - 21055: auth: Error: od?

Hi,
Just upgraded to OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, now my email services have gone AWOL.
The server logs are telling me [DateTime domain.com] log[21055]:auth: Error: od (username, ip address): authentication failed for user=me, method=DIGEST-MD5
From a client (MS offlook) point of view I'm getting :
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject:    test
      Sent: 06/08/2012 19:09
The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:
      '[email protected]' on 06/08/2012 19:10
            451 4.3.5 <unknown[ip address]>: Client host rejected: Server configuration error
This used to work quite well with Lion and the Server Admin Tools.
Is there anything I can try?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff.

Thanks for getting back to me red shift, everything is now up and working again.
I think it was somthing to do with some folder permissions and some mail settings. The mail server GUI supplied with Mountain Lion is all but useless and didn't help in any way in tracking down or resolving the problem. So, I've taken the plunge and set up MailServ for Mountain lion, its a much better mail server GUI client, and seemed to correct some of my postfix settings.
I've tinkered a bit with command line mail stuff, but not quite at a level where I can fully administer it.
Are there any good command line resources out there? This is somthing I need to improve on.
Cheers.

UTL_SMTP: can't connect to remote mail server (error: 421)

I'm trying to execute this command as SYS:

and I get this error:
Error starting at line 8 in command:

However, I can telnet successfully as root user to mail.mydomain.com. The stored procedure is:

Note that mail.mydomain.com is sitting on the application server, and not the database server (not sure if that is important here). Previously, I set things up doing the following as SYS user:

It appears that the SYS user is permitted by the ACL, but is somehow blocked access to mail.mydomain.com on the application server. Are there any Linux configurations that need to occur in implementing this process? Or, am I missing something in configuring Oracle. I'm using 11.2.0.1.0. This is my first time setting this up. Does the database need to be cycled down then back up for any of these settings to take place?

Can't copy large folders to Windows 2008 Server - error code -50

We have two Macs running SL. We are having file server issues.
1) When trying to copy a large folder or file (10MB+ possibly) the progress bar gets nearly complete, then we get "This operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occured (error -50)" After the dialog box goes away, the attempted file/folder appears grey on the Server window and cannot be used. It can be deleted.
2) When browsing the server, newly opened windows often take a few seconds to come up, where under prior OS versions, they open virtually immediately.
Anyone experience these issues or have any suggestions?

I'd like to add a "me, too" to this topic. I am surprised that this is not a more heavily populated thread, as it seems like it should be a major issue to anyone using a mac in a modern windows-based infrastructure.
Thanks to Shawn for the suggestion that changing the folder to have a label colour allows copying: that has been a lifesaver.
It's still embarrassing, however, to have to explain to Mac newcomers that they have to do this before a simple copy...

Pop3 mail server error

For some reason whenever I launch the Mail App, on my MSN account it tells me "*Cannot Get Mail, the connection to the server "pop3.live.com" failed.* "
Do I need to change the settings or delete the account and then add it back again? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Go into the mail account settings and make sure the POP and SMTP server names and passwords are entered correctly. You shouldn't have to delete the accounts, but if all else fails, delete and re-enter them.

Exchange synchronises all folders but Inbox error Cannot Get Mail Server Error!

Initially I lost the inbox of my IPad running IOS 5 with my iPhone 4GS continuing to sync with my Exchange Server 2007 however changing mail setting on my phone has now stopped that working as well and I now have lost access to remote mail altogether.
I can still send mails from my Ipad and Iphone though if I send to myself they do not appear in the inbox but do appear in the Sent items.
If I delete mails they appear in deleted items
I have upgraded my IPad 3 to IOS 6 which has not changed anything. I have also tried an IPad 2 and that does not like my mailbox either. Tonight I created a new user on the server and sent mail to that mailbox. I set the settings on the IPad and the Inbox and other folders worked with no issues.
This problem started 2 weeks ago and before that I have never had problems with IOS devices syncing mail from my Exchange 2007 server.
My wife has a IPad 2 that links to the same Exchange Server and she has experienced none of these problems.
Any pointers on this would be most appreciated.
Richard

OK, we fixed my boss' iPad issue. We are using Exchange 2010. Somehow, there was an issue with the device association in his Exchange account. We had to remove the device association from his Exchange account, delete the account from his iPad, then re-add the account.. He is now syncing again.
You may be able to remove the device association in OWA. Let us know if this works for you.
As to the cause of the issue, it is still unknown.
