Email Error: SMTP Error: Data not accepted.

[stride-r]

This is strange - because i see somone else posted a similar issues just today. My 1.3.8a shop has been operating just fine since it was deployed late last November. I've received orders and utilized the "update Invoice" function to append messages to the orders and to thus notify the customer of the update message. Well, as of today, it no longer seems to work. As soon as i click "update" to the append the message and send to email, I receive a blank screen stating:

"Email Error: SMTP Error: Data not accepted."


Any clue what could do this ...especially since it was working just fine as of last week (when i used it last).

Thanks for any assistance....

Follow up: after a couple hours of not sending, the emails are once again working. Odd - but would still like to know what was throwing the error message?!?

My Host informed me that, earler today, one of their client SMTP servers was "...having an issue with a key piece of the software it uses." and claims that everything should be resolved now.

I guess that's where my issue was as it seems to send just fine once again.

Thanks for posting that this was an issue with your hosting provider ... it is always handy to know things like that ...

You're welcome. I figured it best to not have readers wonder or start looking for something that doesn't exist.
