Title: Email User Complaints?
Post by: sparky on May 14, 2009, 08:02:44
Can anyone shed any light on why I have received this?

This is the mail system at host smtp-out.idnet.com.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

It looks like emails from the idnet mail server are generating complaints from Yahoo! Mail users.

Well, I've tried sending my email again and I'll see what happens.

Interestingly, I have sent three emails to this address in the last four weeks and had no reply, so maybe none have got through. I can't verbally check, because the guy is on an oil rig in the Caspian sea !!

Hi Sparky.

Someone else (http://www.idnetters.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=14061.0) had this as well recently and our advice was to contact support who will be able to tell you where the problem is (ie is it IDNet or BT/Yahoo).

OK. Lance. Thanks.

I'll wait and see if the latest one gets rejected.

Phew - I only came here to see what "Complaint" and "IDnet" could have in common.

You'd be surprised, people often complain that they are too good. :P

Well, my emails eventually got through.

It's obviously a BT Yahoo problem, if you google some of the error message, you find lots of similar issues from people emailing from all sorts of different ISP's.

Sorry I caused panic !  :whistle:
