If I'm not mistaken it's a temporary mail server problem that should probably clear up.

Maybe someone else has more info on that error message, it's rather new to me.

Intermittent server problems can generate all kinds of errors, but often, just sending again will resolve the issue.

Usually that error is because the mail server did not reset its user mailbox limits correctly. Contact your host/mail provider and ask them to perform appropriate maintainance.

More than likely it is just a server problem. But I also notice that in one place the extension is net and the other it is com. You may want to verify that or even try sending with the different extension. The company I see on there has both and it can be confusing sometimes.

Murph....... the "net" is my IP server..... earthlink.net. The address it went to is the "com"......

Hakim, would that problem be Junkman's host, or the server of the person he's sending to?
thanks, John
