There has been an error transferring your mail. I said ... and then the SMTP server (outbound.att.net) said: 554.6.6.0 Error sending message for delivery .
What I have done that has not solved the problem (restarting Eudora each time):
- Cleared all ATT and Yahoo cookies, and jumped through hoops revalidating my login information.
- Generated a new ATT security password key and replaced my prior password with it.
- Checked my Tools/Checking Mail and Tools/Sending Mail settings for POP3. All are according to ATT. I also have no bad certificates. I also deleted a few expired certificates.
I spent 50 min. with ATT tech support. He seemed proficient and thorough and found nothing in my profile to explain what is happening. He said the problem must be with Eudora. I am wondering if there is a Eudora.ini setting I need to add?
Any suggestions for a fix? Many thanks in advance.
Starting several days ago, any email I try to send that has more than ONE recipient fails:Very strange that the messages are ending up in the drafts folder on the server, especially if Eudora is saying that they weren't sent! I suspect that's because the server didn't tell Eudora they had been sent. Are you absolutely sure that the entries
The email shows up in the DRAFT folder on the ATT/Yahoo email server with all intended recipients stripped out.
In Eudora 7.1.0.9, in my Outbox folder, the message has the "broken envelope" icon in front of the message.
The Task Error message is:
There has been an error transferring your mail. I said ... and then the SMTP server (outbound.att.net) said: 554.6.6.0 Error sending message for delivery .
Fortunately, I can email a single recipient and am having no issues receiving email.
I had already upgraded the SSL to v1.2 a few years ago and haven't experienced a problem like this since.
SMTP port setting is 465.
POP port setting is 995.
Set "Required, Alternate Port" for both incoming and outgoing mail.

I suspect that's because the server didn't tell Eudora they had been sent. Are you absolutely sure that the entrieslisted in the 'To:' field on the message in Eudora are formatted correctly, that is to say with a comma immediately after each one, followed by a space? Eudora will normally tell you if that's wrong, but you never know! Do you queue messages before you

Eudora does not do IMAP!

So are you selecting your recipients from your Eudora address book by selecting them all in the list and hitting the 'To:' button?RESOLUTION! After getting a terrible, inappropriate suggestion from ATT "support" to "to remove any type of spam locks" which I could not decipher, I called ATT Tech Support and that person didn't understand what "to remove any type of spam locks" meant
That should definitely put them in the 'To:' field of the message correctly, with a comma after each one followed by a space.
Please check that this is happening correctly. Try with a dummy message, you don't have to actually send it!

By definition BCC: headers are REMOVED from the body of outbound messages AFTER the addresses are extracted and used in the SMTP handshake.
RESOLUTION! After getting a terrible, inappropriate suggestion from ATT "support" to "to remove any type of spam locks" which I could not decipher, I called ATT Tech Support and that person didn't understand what "to remove any type of spam locks"meant either. Then I backed up, deleted, and reinstalled Eudora. Still had the problem. I googled "cannot send bcc email on att.net" and got this hit at the top of the list https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1372359. It was not just me!
As of March 24, 2022, PROBLEM IS: Yahoo will not allow sending of BCC unless there is also a valid To: address. So I sent my email TO myself and BCC'd my list and it sent. I now have created an alias which I already filtered to spam, so I won't bereceiving my own messages on the server, but will be able to BCC others to avoid spammers. I also sent email to ATT about not informing anyone, including their own tech support, of the poorly thought out change.
No. Header and body are separate parts of any e-mail message. And unless >explicitly copied into a body before sending, NO header line will ever
be in the body of a message.
Furthermore, the body of a message is entirely the "property" of the one >sending the message, and NO system between the sender and recipient, nor
the recipients mailbox holding system, should ever make changes to the
body of a message. Which is exactly what Micro$soft hasn't understood.
