Anny Posted August 15, 2003 Posted August 15, 2003 I'm installing a php postcard script (vCard Lite), and it seems that when I send a card to an e-mail address out of my domain, I got an error like this by e-mail: This message was created automatically by mail delivery software. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: someone@notmydomain.com unrouteable mail domain "notmydomain.com" Does anyone know what is happening? * someone@notmydomain.com is just an example. Quote
TCH-Sales Posted August 15, 2003 Posted August 15, 2003 I would double check the scripts instructions, make sure you've got everything set up correctly again. On the other hand, sometimes email addresses are just not routable because of a million and one reasons. So if the majority is going through, I don't think you have anything to worry about. First things first though I would give a second look at the install script just to double check things there. Quote
Anny Posted August 15, 2003 Author Posted August 15, 2003 Everything is installed and configured correctly... but I only can send cards to something@**** ... ALL others e-mail address that are not of my domain return that error message. Quote
TCH-Sales Posted August 15, 2003 Posted August 15, 2003 Well I'll still leave this open to all sugestions out there. Hopefully things will work out for you soon. Quote
Frylock Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 Hmm, I'm having the exact same problem on server35. Whenever I try to send email to Hotmail, Yahoo, or AOL (via PHP's mail() function) it gets sent back with the exact same message as you're getting. I read elsewhere on these boards that I might need to add complete mail headers (and not just the 'From') when sending to these hosts, but I tried adding them exactly as they suggested and I'm still having troubles getting it through (I can to mydomain addresses). So if anyone else has any ideas... Thanks. Quote

Frylock Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 I tested it out by sending to a couple of outside emails... and it works! Cool. Thanks a lot. Quote
Anny Posted August 16, 2003 Author Posted August 16, 2003 Everething seems working fine at my domain too. Thumbs Up Thanks. Quote
