I am trying to mail all of my accounts in SuiteCRM. I have about 80. I get an error message telling me I can't send to more than 10.
How do I go about fixing this?
There is no such a limit inside SuiteCRM software (maybe on your hosting provider).
If you are facing a limitation it must be due to your STMP provider. (maybe gmail? it has ~100 limit).
What you do have is a per-batch limit configuration (available under admin->Campaign Email Settings) which is normally set to 500 emails per batch.

I have installed phplist on the server for E-mail marketing but when it has send 100 E-mails to non-existing adresses DirectAdmin blocks the email account.
When this happends I must change the password but I have a list of 30.000 E-mails which needs to bounce first so I know which E-mails to delete from the database.
Is there a way to avoid the blocking and keep on sending E-mails to non-existing adresses?
I think you have setup mail limit on your server and due to that you are facing this issues, Please check following direct-admin help docs and try to update your mail limit.

Here is the reason for my peculiar question:
I am working on a mortgage application for a mortgage broker where each mortgage application is a record. Now this broker will take each of the applications he has received and enter this application (in an up line lender's system) and during the life of this mortgage application, he receives notification emails about updates from the up line lender.
It is required that in this application, all emails pertaining to a particular mortgage application are visible under that record.
My plan is to have all emails collect in a single inbox, and give that inbox an alias corresponding to the record id of the mortgage record. The alias remains active as long as the mortgage application is active and the broker cares for receiving these updates. Once the mortgage application record is dead, that alias is removed.
When displaying the particular mortgage record, I can query the mail server for the emails where the to address is the alias of that particular record.
My key requirements are:
The email server or email service should allow for about 400-500 aliases at a time.
Should have an API interface for creating and deleting an alias.
As far as the creating/deleting API is concerned, Google Apps (https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/guides/manage-user-aliases) really fits the requirement, but has a 30 alias limit.
Does Microsoft Outlook online mail support this kind of API and ability to create mailbox alias?
If we went in the direction of having a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010/2013, would it allow programmatic access to create aliases? What would be the license cost?
Thanks in advance for looking this up.
With update from #mti2935, I am considering a catch-all solution rather then deal with creating aliases.
So, now I think all I need is to be able to process the emails. What's the best means of processing emails (in my case, I will simply have to look at the "to" field and put the emails in different buckets).
I have found a third party service that can help me parse emails. Definitely going to try that out and provide an update here.

Referenced by a post on: How to setup a mail server?
One option to consider is to setup a mail server using qmail, configured as a catch-all for your domain, such that all mail to *#yourdomain.tld forwards to a script which parses each incoming message, scrapes the to, from, subject, etc. logs the messages in your database, etc. It's easier than it sounds to setup. See How to setup a mail server?. This can be done fairly inexpensively on a Rackspace or AWS cloud server.
On our website which is asp.net, we make a sale and an automated email is sent out to the client with an attached PDF invoice we create using a 3rd party app. We are having trouble getting these delivered successfully to some corporate clients. Yet we also send a copy of that same email to ourselves which we receive fine. We can then forward this on to the client and they do receive it no problems. So the original is not received but the forwarded mail is.
The webserver is a seperate IP address to our office Exchange server which sends the forwarded mail.
I have tried to find the difference between the 2 mails and it looked like a rich text issue, except that the mail is plain text or html!
The question is a little vague i know as i do not know where to look for the best. It seems to make no differenec which mail program is used, we tried MailEable and it was the same thing.
Mail is logged on the web server as leaving and that is the last we see of it. It doesnt bounce but it is definatley delivered to the client server, but doesnt reach the recipient. We used to track thru Message Labs and it would say it had reached the destination server ok. We do not use ML anymore until we find the issue, keeping it simple.
We have no issues sending to AOL, Hotmail and Yahoo etc.
It appears something in the email is upsetting server based spam software.
We havnt been able to get hold of any email logs from clients.
any suggestions?
Check out this link mentioning a reason not related to size issues
The SMTP (internet mail protocol) RFC (An RFC is a document describing
the standards that make the Internet work.) explicitly states that the
length of a single unterminated line can be 1000 bytes, no larger.
Some SMTP servers violate this, and the Firebox (this is our firewall)
will drop the connection when the line length exceeds the configured
length, which defaults to 1000.
which might indicate your pdf generator and/or mail generator creates output that's not 100% standards compliant. Might be a good point to check as it could explain why certain customer suffer fom this problem only.
552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation
This means there was a violation at the client's ("customer's") mail server. The message exceeded a threshold/limit of some kind. It's not clear if this is a per-message limit or if the user's mailbox is just so full that it cannot accept another message.
Either way, this is mostly out of your control. Only thing you can do it try to keep your e-mail messages and attachments as small as possible. If you can, compress (zip) any attachments before sending.
I work at a university, on a project for a web driven academic management system and I'm currently facing the following problem:
Sometimes the application needs to send e-mails, most of then are sent on demand (users ask for a password recovery link, for example). Many emails for this kind of service are sent daily, and if on a peak of access they are sent massively. This has caused our email server to be included in blacklists of common email providers (like yahoo and hotmail), resulting in failures on email delivery.
What are the common causes for this kind of problem? Is it possible to avoid these blacklists? Or at least is there any good practices to follow so I can "flag" these useful emails as non-spam or safe email?
thanks for reading.
first of all, check if those messages are really sent to email addresses in your account database. maybe there is a security hole in your application that allows sending messages to arbitrary recipients. an indicator of that would be if your domain or ip is blacklisted not only at specific providers like yahoo or hotmail, but also on public blacklists like spamhaus.
("most of then are sent on demand".. makes me think.. what about the others? could they be interpreted as spam by many recipients?)
then you need to find out if your server is blocked due to
the amount of messages sent or due to the content looking "spammy".
Check your logs from the time before the blacklisting happens. Do you see many deferred messages (4xx error code), do they contain error messages that indicate too many messages from your IP?
if so, configure your MTA to throttle message delivery to those providers.
also check your mailserver setup:
correct fully qualified HELO?
matching reverse dns?
If you have DKIM , SPF and the like... are the settings correct?
finally, examine the generated messages. Do they have all required headers? Run them through spamassassin and check the result. adapt the formatting of your messages accordingly.
I got kinda a weird scenario. I am using google apps for my domain emails so I get chobo2#mydomain.com.
I am using this instead of the my shared hosting provides email server because this gives me alot of flexibility to switch to a new hosting site and not have to transfer all my emails when I switch over. I also like using it over the one my host provides(on average I get emails faster).
Now the only downside to all this is gmail has alot lower email limit(I think like 500 a day). Where as my hosting provider allows something like 1000 an hour.
So I use google apps for my emails that I want to look at and the hosting email servers for automated messages.
What leads me to this problem
<errorMail from="noreply#mydomain.com"
to="myGoogleApssEmail#mydomian.com"
subject="Failed"
async="true"
smtpPort="25"
smtpServer="mail.mydomain.com"
userName="noreply#mydomain.com"
password="password" />
So when an elmah error occurs it should send me an email.This email gets sent through my hosting email servers but it should go to my email address that I have with google(remember they both have the same end domain name - mydomain.com).
I never get the email and I think it is because it probably thinks that they are on the same servers. So instead of sending it to google it probably goes well it must be on the same server as this domain lets try to send it there.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Is it even possible?
It is not possible as MX records are meant to be per domain not per e-mail address.
So if mydomain.com is using Google MX servers all e-mails will be delivered to google in the first place. There you could create forwarding rules to your hosting provider but it does not make sense as it would exceed the limit, too.
What you could do is specifying subdomains - i.e. elmah.mydomain.com plus an MX pointing to your provider.
