Re: SeaMonkey Email Cannot Reach One Recipient

2013-07-10 Thread Hartmut Figge
Louis Toscano:

I just want to make sure the problem is not on my end.  One of my 
recipients, a .org, for months has not been able to receive my emails. 
I suspect the problem is the server at her end.  Could something at my 
end block her email, like an antivirus or firewall (mine is Panda).

You could send yourself a PM. Or me. :)

The fact that it's only one recipient suggests that the problem is on 
the receiving end.


Not sure why you're asking the last question -- shouldn't you be asking 
if HER antivirus or firewall is blocking YOUR messages? Anyway, if your 
own firewall is blocking your outgoing mail, that should appear in its 
log, or it should pop up a message to notify you. Same if your own ISP 
is blocking it.


Some ISPs rely on (forgive the expression) $#!+lists of spammers and 
such and block all mail from them. So if you inadvertently get on the 
$#!+list used by her ISP, you won't be able to get through. But in that 
case, you should get a bounce message including instructions for how to 
get off the $#!+list. They do tend to be too inclusive, and the 
operators know it.

This sounds like a good suggestion.  I will telephone the recipient and 
ask her to check if I am on a restricted site list with her Internet 
provider.

That might be a good suggestion; but I have no program that sends 
private messages.  Since I never used that feature, I don't see why I 
should download and enable such a program.

It could be that  the mail server of your recipient drop your mail 
thinking coming from a spam domain.

In German newsgroups PM is a common abbreviation for sending a mail to
someone. This someone could be oneself.

If you send a mail to yourself with SM, you can test, if it handles the
task correctly. You can look in the headers of the message source what
has happened.

Sending a mail to someone else can test, if the own ISP blocks mails
destined for outside receivers. If that test succeeds and a special
receiver does not receive a mail, it may well be, that the ISP of that
special receiver has blocked the mail. Or a filter of that receiver.

Seems, that PM has another meaning in this newsgroup. Well, it is not
the first time, that i meant to write something and in reality it meant
something else entirely. *g*


I understood it as private message, as opposed to a posting to the 
list. Louis seems to understand it as IM (instant message), which as 
you know is not even an email so it's not a valid test of email features.

The self-email test works.  I just sent myself one.
