Hi Dave I'm doing that here by popping the mail account and comparing the start of the message body and then applying the necessary processing
The two sentences below seem to be a consistent way of find out whether they are soft or hard bounce, but I am not sure if it 100% HARD BOUNCE message body begins "The attached message had PERMANENT fatal delivery errors!." SOFT BOUNCE message body begins "The attached message had transient non-fatal delivery errors" If you need the email address you can get this via from with the message body via regex. Best way to check if this will work for you is to pop the account and compare the message bodies, but the above seems to work for me. hth Mark -----Original Message----- From: Dave Ashworth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 15 February 2006 11:48 To: CF-Server Subject: tracking soft and hard bounce backs Hi I have an email application that records bouncebacks on mailouts Currently I collect all failed mail in a seperate mail account using the failto tag in CFMail and simply count the number of mails Does anyone have a good way of determining whether these bouncebacks are hard of soft? Are there any consistent keywords that would appear in the transcript that would allow me everytime to determine which type it is?
