I am having trouble getting email Bounce Handler to work

Hi there,

Here is the report from my log:
6/8 16:12:38 ~ Status: Connecting to xxxx.xxxxxx.internal (IMAP) Port: 143 Security: None
6/8 16:12:38 * OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7226.0 (xxxx.xxxxxx.internal) ready.

6/8 16:12:39 > A0003 PARTIAL 1 RFC822 1 25000


At this point, the status line says "Getting message 1/1" and sits... and sits... and stits. Any ideas?

I too get this problem. Did you find out how to fix this?

My install was working fine as a trial a coupe of days ago, but once registered today and retryed I get the same message when trying to fetch emails?

 

[ethanc]

Actually I did...

Figured out that almost all the messages on the server were way bigger than 25k. I turned that off and it worked like a charm!

 

[howaraj]

ah yes That has worked for me too.


Thanks for that,

Adrian

Yes, this is because the IMAP PARTIAL command is buggy on several server implementations. Deactivating the size setting causes eMail Bounce Handler to use IMAP Fetch command instead.

I saved my bouncebacks from all 4 runs of eMail Bounce Handler so I have the info I need.
