I'm using Outlook 2007. All of a sudden, when I send an email to a
person
with a HOTMAIL address, it says my return address is refused! I
have not
done anything different. This just started this week. I'm using
same
computer, same server and everything. Any help appreciated!
Maybe you are on a blacklist of known spam sources. Could be you are
infected with a mailer trojan. Could be your IP expired and you got a
different one than before and whomever had that IP before was a
spamming or bulk mailing user.
You didn't identify who is your e-mail provider. You didn't identify
your IP address (for your host or for your router if you have one);
Microsoft's CDO webnew service doesn't enter valid values for the
NNTP-Posting-Host header (Microsoft isn't RFC compliant for Usenet).
Maybe the problem isn't Hotmail rejecting your e-mail at all. What
you said is that "it" says your *return address* is refused. "It"
could be your own e-mail service saying that you have an invalid
string in the From or Reply-To headers so it refuses to send your
e-mails. Go take a look in the e-mail account you have defined in
Outlook to see what is specified in the E-mail and Reply-To fields.
Rather than describe an error message or NDR (non-delivery report)
e-mail, copy it and paste it into your post - including the headers
(but munge out any e-mail addresses). No one here knows what you
actually saw unless you show it.
