Good point. I stand corrected.
550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
(e.g., mailbox not found, no access, or command rejected
for policy reasons)
That includes security related rejections such as "relaying not
allowed". Usually, the SMTP server supplies a bit if detail, which MS
Outlook Express reformats, resulting in something like the original:
Server Response: '550 you are not allowed to send mail
to <(E-Mail Removed)>'
In this case, the rejection means that the recipient or the originator
is listed in a blacklist that the ISP uses for spam reduction. The
message probably originally looked something like:
550 You are not allowed to send mail to
(E-Mail Removed)
550 Please refer to
www.spamhaus.org, dsbl.org and njabl...
However, Outlook Express reformats this and usually drops the 2nd
line.
Hard to tell what was wrong from here with what I suspect was only
part of the error message.
Thanks.
