Crossposted I Outlook Express General. (Please follow up there).

 

The error message suggests your server is denying a relaying request. Are

you connected to your server when you tried to send this, or another server?

 

55X Relaying Errors:

http://www.insideoe.com/problems/errors.htm#relay550

 

It may also be a generic error message.

 

1: Was the e-mail very large?

 

2: Is just deleting the message an option?

 

If yes to the above:

 

Check: File | Work Offline and in: View | Layout: Uncheck the Preview Pane.

Can you delete it now?

 

If not:

 

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of

your Outlook Express files. Write the location down and navigate to it in

Windows Explorer or, copy and paste it into Start | Run.

 

In Windows XP, 2K & 2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default

marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show

Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options |

View.

 

With OE closed, find the DBX file for the Outbox.dbx and delete it. A new,

empty one will be created automatically when you open OE.

 

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become

corrupted. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move

your mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created

folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible.

 

After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while

working *offline* and do it often.

 

Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no folders are

open. Then: File | Work Offline (or double click Working Online in the

Status Bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until

the compacting is completed.

 

In Tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in background and

leave it unchecked. {N/A if running XP/SP2}.

Remove "mailto:" from the address in your address book so it reads

"shirsimaki@stc.ca".

Why bring this up Here? Do you see OE in this group's title? NO.

 

Ask elsewhere

Re: e mail error

 

To how many email addresses are you sending this one (1) message? Try 50,

25, or fewer.
