Server said:503
« on: August 09, 2004, 05:40:57 am »
I upgraded to the newest version about 2 months ago and everything has been running real smooth.  Then today, in the middle of mailing 98,000 people, I got this errror:

Sending error. Check your mail settings.

Queue Row: queueid=5eb38bda9ae340dbb6736495fae2b294 msgtype=1 userid=74854 msgid=85 email=)

Server said:503 valid RCPT command must precede DATA

_------------------------------------------------------------------------

It look to me like I have a dead email address some where in there.  With a ")", but I searched for ")" in the list and I can't find it.  Any idea what to do?  I can't mail to my list?

Trying to fix

I'm trying to save my mailing by remove that users and uiq.  The id does not appear.  I guess it's due to the that bug listed a few posts below.  I will change my settings to:

"Keep removed users in database but don't mail"  to save future mailings.  But, is there anyway to save this mailing?

For anyone who is having this trouble:

The easiest way to find the error is to search by the message id.  It will be listed as the first row in the table, since the mailing is stuck on it.  And just remove it.

It should happen next mailing since the users name has been deleted. But, I'll let you know if I run into any trouble.

Please do let me know.  I fear it could also be a problem with users in queue who remove themselves before being mailed.

Having trouble again this week.

I'm having trouble again this week.  This type of message came up 5 times through the time of this mailing.

Server said:503 valid RCPT command must precede DATA

Queue Row: queueid=5bb742df4cc2e05dafd3443c4ff350b3 msgtype=1 userid=124907 msgid=87 email=)

I deleted the queue mail through PHPmyadmin and it works fine again.  But, I'm wondering if there way to find out which IP address this now deleted user has input from, maybe someone wrote a script to submit names to my newsletter.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul
