Hi all,
I am having a strange problem with emails being sent from my
production IIS server where when the content body of the email gets to
such a volume I get the following message...
Action: failed
Status: 5.5.0
Diagnostic-Code: smtp;552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded
storage allocation
421 SMTP service not available, closing transmission channel
... I am stumped as to exactly where I can eradicate this problem. I
know I receive emails with large attachments, so that isn't the
problem. I was wondering whether their was a limit on the body of the
email being sent. The 'Limit Message Size To' in IIS'S Default Virtual
SMTP Server Properties is unchecked, meaning no limit. The email is
obviously isn't leaving the server, because it a value is being added
to the following location on the server (C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Badmail),
so from this I take it that the it is nothing to do with the
reciepients emails address.
No I did find some info. It states in an article that the Content-
Transfer-Encoding with values of 7 bit and 8 bit are not allowed body
content that has lines that exceed 998 characters.
What I find strange is how my gmail account can receive these emails,
yet work emails/domains are not accepting them.
Any pointers anyone?
(NOTE: we are not using Exchange Server)
Thanks
Tryst
