Invalid recipient - SMTP error 550

Postby malcolmw on Sun 10. Aug, 2003 13:25

I had a problem that my mass email would not send - since I also control the mail server I was able to get a log and find that the problem was a lack of '<' and '>' around the BCC addresses.

To fix this I slapped a real quck-and dirty fix onto mass_email.php.
I don't understand why the 'to' worked but the 'bcc' didn't so this may not be a complete solution - but it works for me:

Code: Select all
//                                                $bcc_list .= $email_list[$i]['user_email'];   
                                                $bcc_list .= "<" . $email_list[$i]['user_email'] . ">";


While in there I also made some changes to improve the unsubscribe option. It didn't work for my board since the script_path is not the root_path.
I also added more info to the users confirmation screen to tell them the group that they just unsubscribed from and offer a link to review other group memberships.

If you are interested in these changes let me know and I'll post them
