I have found that even after you just clean up a list, your next mailing will have rejects in it. Even if it's only a few minutes since you last cleaned it up. Your error handling needs to be able to differentiate between temporary problems (e.g. mailbox full) and permanent problems (e.g. that user not known here) . Your block of ip addresses can be blocked if someone in the same data centre gets flagged as a spammer. And that can be only transient too, so next time you try to bulk email some of the ones that were rejected as "sender address blocked" are not rejected now. Then there are the ones that are rejected because their mailbox is full. It might be full because it's an inactive email address (i.e. permanent) , or simply that they have been on vacation and havent picked up email for a while (i.e. temporary). Or they might be in arrears with the credit department at their email hosting service, which will be cleared again once they pay their bill. I usually flag bouncing email addresses but still include them in the next couple of emails. If they bounce 3 times I consider them to be dead and remove them from the list. -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion 9 Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:360374 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
