Delivery failed: Invalid Addresses

[vanny]

I have just downloaded Zimbra desktop and having trouble.

Able to recieve messages but not send. My test e-mail was to my hotmail account but does not go. Think I maybe made a mistake setting up account.

I am using windows vista. ZD 2.0, with zimbra collaboration suite account.

Even though I send e-mail to my hotmail, the error message i recieve back says that i am sending and recieving the message to the same e-mail:

Delivery failed: Invalid Addresses November 4, 2010 11:14 AM

From:info@buffalodrivertraining.com
To:info@buffalodrivertraining.com

please help,

need simple language please.

I am having the identical problem. Zibra Desktop 7.1.2 running on Windows XP SP 2. IMAP account.

The post above is almost a year old. It's not possible that no one else has encountered this, or that no one knows what Vanny and I are both doing wrong.

You're not really, that version he's using is not the same one as yours. Apart from that, you haven't really given much information about your problem.

If you look at the original post it describes exactly what the problem is:

Are you really trying to do the same thing?

I got the same error message, with the "to" address the same as the "from" address even though I was, like Vanny, sending a test message to a different account. If Vanny had opened the attachment to his error message, he would have seen his original message including the Hotmail destination. I didn't notice the attachment at first (Zimbra displays the link in a very small font). I doubt that Vanny noticed it either.

I don't know what Vanny did wrong, but after posting here I did figure out what I did wrong. In setting up my IMAP account, I did not check the "authentication" box and enter a password for outgoing mail. I had forgotten that my ISP requires it.

The error message, especially the part showing the sender and destination being the same, did not help me figure this out.

Anyway, my problem is solved.
