Atomic Mail Sender

• Rejected by server

Message was rejected by remote SMTP server due to their antispam settings.

Most of large smtp servers do not accept mail from home computers (with dial-up or cable IP addresses). You need send mail via external SMTP server, it's highly recommended. Please open Settings / Common Settings / SMTP and add SMTP server of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or hosting service.

• Transaction failed
• No such address
• User not local

It usually happens if you try send mail via the external SMTP server, but do not provide correct username / password when it's required. Please open Settings / Common Settings / SMTP, double click at the server name and change Authentication type. The most popular type is ESMTP. CRAM and DIGEST are used at the less number of servers, POP before SMTP is too old, not recommended to use.

Note for hotmail.com - please check HELO value. It's very important for them. Open Settings / Common Settings / Mailer and check value of HELO there. It must be the same as at www.massmailsoftware.com/ip.

• Remote server not answer
• Connection refused
• Can not access Internet
