Our users have had a lot of problems with the extra service telling us
one (or more) of our 50 email addresses is invalid but not telling us
which one. I hadn't thought of sending the emails one by one as a
solution thou :)

Yeah, they also have some anti-harvesting stuff. When doing a big BCC
email I've been splitting emails up into groups of 45 recipients, but
xtra have some annoying error messages that don't inform you which
recipient is bad (out of the 45) - I guess I could just perform a sort
of binary search to find out which one it is. I havn't run into any
problems sending out a seperate email to each user - except that some
virus scanners can't keep up.

Hi they told us some of them (we must be too nice).
I think the core rule was you cant send an email to more than 99
(49?) email addresses in one go. However if you want to send an
email to 1000 there is nothing stopping you sending it as 11 separate
< 100 address emails.
I hope I haven't just destroyed national security :)

Xtra is just evil in my opinion. I've had lots of problems sending
bulk emails - they have spam rules in place but won't let on as to
what they are, lest the real spammers find out and work around them.

I use XTRA's Secure Remote Email service and am trying to use an
Indy TIdSMTP component (BDS2006, Indy 10.1.5) to send an email
message via XTRA's smtp server. This server (smtpr.xtra.co.nz)
requires user authentication and SSL to send through it.
I can send messages to myself or my colleagues who also have xtra
mailboxes, but if I try to send to a non-XTRA mailbox I get an
EIdSMTPReplyError exception, with code 550 reported i.e. "Requested
action not taken: mailbox unavailable", so I guess XTRA has
tightened up its security and is now assuming I am a spammer and is
blocking me since this used to work fine.
Has anyone managed to work out the combinations of properties for a
TIdSMTP & associated TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL component (since
the Secure Remote service requires SSL) and TIdMessage that will
work with XTRA?
I've tried pretending to be Outlook 2003 (my normal mail client) by
setting TIdSMTP.MailAgent to "Microsoft Office Outlook 11" etc
which didn't work (this sets the X-Mailer header). Other settings
I'm using with TIdSMTP:
AuthType = atDefault
Host = smtpr.xtra.co.nz
Port = 465
UseEhlo = true
Plus my Username and Password of course.

John
