Vista - Windows Mail and Contacts

11-19-2007

There have been moments for the past month or so, when I send emails out to
some contacts in my Windows Mail Contact list, the email I sent out will
bounce back to me (never making it to its destination). The message will
come back with a .dat file attached to it and the file will read as follows:
"The file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Create an association in the Set Associations in the Control Panel."

This does not happen to all contacts that I send email out to. Just some.
Can you please tell me what this can be. It has been going on for about 1
month now. I need to find way to stop it, as some of these contacts are
important.

Your help would be appreciated. Thank you.

When included with a bounce notice, the contents of the .dat file is not
really significant. Any other information included with the bounce notice
might be significant, such as an error number or explanation for the bounce.

However, if you are receiving a file such as winmail.dat via a regular email
reply (not a bounce notice), then the explanation would be different.

Gary this is the error code of the message that I am getting:

Final-Recipient: rfc822;susan.bozarzin@xxxxxx
Action: failed
Status: 5.5.0
Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 #5.1.0 Address rejected susan.bozarzin@xxxxxx

What is weird about this. Is that my email server is the same as this
persons and I have difficulty sending her email and she is my sister. She
has added my email address into the windows mail safelist.

Also there are other contacts emails bouncing back with what you say of the
dat file is irrelevant but with the same error code. These people are
friends also and different servers though.

Can you help me figure out what this source error code means please?

Thanks so much.

Well, it's not just you or your email program. I tried that email address
at one of my testing sites:
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/mail.c...ozarzin@xxxxxx
and got the same failure message as you did.

Either that email address really is bad, or else there is something wrong
with the mail server.

Sympatico has changed their mail server settings over the years. Are you
using their latest settings?

Hi Peter,

I do not know about what the

means?

However the (.) between susan and bojarzin is part of her email address.
When she set up her email address, this is how her server helped her set
up her email address. With a (.) between her first and last name. I have
seen many email addresses with a (.) between the first and last email
address.

hmmm.

Well I am going to get in touch with my sister and let her know that the
possibility exists that her email address might be bad. However the error
code that came with her email address rejection wonder what that meant too?

Also, I checked my server set up according to your url below and mine is all
the same.

Thanks, Charmaine

The error message means that the mail server can't deliver email to that
address, either because the address is invalid, or the recipient's mailbox
is malfunctioning. Are you able to send your sister email via Hotmail or
another webmail account like Yahoo?

charmainejensenvoisine n/a posts	Windows Mail and Contacts There have been moments for the past month or so, when I send emails out to some contacts in my Windows Mail Contact list, the email I sent out will bounce back to me (never making it to its destination). The message will come back with a .dat file attached to it and the file will read as follows: "The file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set Associations in the Control Panel." This does not happen to all contacts that I send email out to. Just some. Can you please tell me what this can be.

Gary VanderMolen n/a posts	Re: Windows Mail and Contacts Well, it's not just you or your email program. I tried that email address at one of my testing sites: http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/mail.c...ozarzin@xxxxxx and got the same failure message as you did. Either that email address really is bad, or else there is something wrong with the mail server. Sympatico has changed their mail server settings over the years.

charmainejensenvoisine n/a posts	Re: Windows Mail and Contacts Hi Peter, I do not know about what the means? However the (.) between susan and bojarzin is part of her email address. When she set up her email address, this is how her server helped her set up her email address. With a (.) between her first and last name. I have seen many email addresses with a (.) between the first and last email address. hmmm.

Gary VanderMolen n/a posts	Re: Windows Mail and Contacts The error message means that the mail server can't deliver email to that address, either because the address is invalid, or the recipient's mailbox is malfunctioning.
