Too long a line.

The mail can't be routed.

Okay, basically that didn't help you. The 554 error shouldn't happen,
but might be a misbehaving receiving system. The 550 means you tried
to send to an address through another server that can't or won't route
mail for you.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for that. do you know of a place where we can refer to such SMTP
errors and the reason for them? i have been looking for this for some time
but did not find a place.

Thanks again for your comments.

The RFC's have them, or here's a list:

http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2000/05/21/smtp-replies.html

Try just using Google, type in SMTP and the response code.

550 is Unable to Relay, most common when you try to send mail through
one server to another and the first hasn't authorized you to relay
through it. If you control the server you can change relaying, if
not, contact the server's admin.

554 is really kind of generic and basically means the SMTP transaction
failed. Any text should give you the reason, but I haven't seen a Too
long line error since we used to work with character-based systems in
the mid 1980's (The error was "Line too long".

Check the SMTP logs for a better sequence of events.
