Pegasus Mail & Mercury

I've just recently started supporting Mercury again, after several years in a different job.  If my memory serves, we used to use mailing lists with large number of users and had no problems with SMTP server limitations on the number of addresses in the message.  It seemed like Mercury was able to break the message up into separate ...

This is an experiment with the new event daemon type that was presented in the recently released Daemon Developer Kit for Mercury. An event daemon has the ability to interact closely with various Mercury modules, in this case the SMTP server module, and change the way a message is processed.In most cases it's probably a good strategy to leave the ...

Thanks, Thomas. I do not think it is a firewall or DNS problem as MS-Office Outlook 2003 is able to connect to the account from the same machine. I can also ping all forms of the address, including the real POP3 server addresses you quote above. Cheers!

Hello I have read about the same issue here http://community.pmail.com/forums/thread/926.aspx and understand this may not be a Pegasus Mail problem. When I try to poll a POP3 box or send mail to a newly created Googlemail account I get a Socket Read Timeout error. POP3:--- Tue, 01 Jul 2008 10:17:08 ---Connect to ...

Greylisting won't help you because the spammers can just dump their mail onto your backup MX which will then happily relay it on to you from both a trusted and persistent (genuine) mailer and address.   It's unlikely that a UK ISP would neglect to provide an outgoing smarthost (SMTP/submission) server.  But yes, MercuryE is the module ...

Hi Sabahattin Thanks for your response. As I understand it, I can simply ban all IP addresses and the rules I have in place at present will simply overide the ban where addresses are explicitly allowed? Does the global banned range need to be added at the top of the list, or does its position in the list not matter? I don't understand what you ...

Can't connect to 213.180.114.52 on port 25: Timed out   Firewall?  TCP port 25 incoming needs to be opened.  Check your router.  Check your software firewall configuration.  In the Windows firewall, allow mercury.exe.   Tip: if you only have one mail server, it is easy to do away with a large volume of ...

Greenman:   I don't understand how Mercury was able to accept the mail from 61.145.143.171 when it is outside the allowed range of IP addresses. Am I missing something here? Is there any further configuration I need to carry out to ensure that Mercury only accepts SMTP connections from the allowed ranges?   It's not clear ...

Hi Folks I have a question about SMTP mail from allowed IP ranges. All mail we receive goes through MessageLabs. This means that all email has a banner inserted at the end of the message stating it has been scanned by MessageLabs. Today we received an email which was classified as spam, and which did not include the banner. The MercuryS log ...

I'm using Mercury/32 version 4.52 which came with XAMPP. I'm using XAMPP for local developing and testing of my osCommerce store. When I try to send an email from osC (which is basically PHP) I get no error from osC but the email goes nowhere and I get this error in my log (verizon.net is the domain of the ...
