Gmail bouncing?

Tuesday, March 25, 2008

Gmail keeps bouncing mail that I’m trying to send via the web interface, immediately:

This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

xxxx@xxxxx.com

Technical details of permanent failure:
PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 12): 550 5.7.1 Email rejected due to sending server misconfiguration - see http://www.ordb.org/faq/#why_rejected

Googling, Ordb.org seems to have gone offline in 2006. Wtf.

[Update 20:15] Seems google is a lazy user of ordb.org Long-Dead ORDB Begins Returning False Positives

Gmail via IMAP on Mutt (osx)

Wednesday, October 31, 2007

Geoff Webb from 2Paths wrote up a quickie on gmail’s new IMAP interface, using it with Thunderbird. I being the CLI junkie that I am did some quick googling for the mutt settings courtesy of John Lawrence. I had already configured mutt-devel so all I had to do was change my .muttrc and I was good to go.

Between my N95 for mobile email access and this for my laptop I’m finally starting to feel like I have adequate access to my email from anywhere (…with cell access….)
