What’s a rcpthost error (2002 )

Topic

Hopefully someone has seen this error before

I’m getting a returned error message from “System Administrator” when I try to email externally through an SMTP service for SOME of the messages – If I send to addresses on my own ISP they get through

The error message is returned as a mail item

This has just started happening on a system that previously worked OK.

Where are you trying to send this eamil from at work or at home?
Who is your email ISP and who is your internet provider?

Its a Home system, direct dialing to my ISP (paradise.net.nz).
That is, Exchange is nowhere in the picture.
If I email to my ‘test’ account junque@paradise.net.nz it goes through fine – as does a mail message addressed to my wife’s computer (also on paradise). All other domains seem to fail.
I’m starting to suspect that it is my ISP (paradise) – is that a fair possibility?

I ‘proved’ it wasn’t my ISP by using Outlook Express successfully for the troublesome addressees.

I gave up and did an Outlook “Seek and Destroy” – oops, I meant “Detect and Repair” – which did the trick – I just have to remember now what all my settings were
