The "250" means that the message was accepted for delivery; anything after that is just whatever the mailserver wants you to see if you look at your logs.In the log file I noticed on some of the connections with remote mail servers I either get a line that saysSMTP (556) 250 10.0.221.52: Message accepted for delivery or SMTP (1364) 250 Ok: queued as BC2BD15458D What is the difference between these two lines? Is it just how some servers report that the message is being accepted?
Exactly what does it mean when it says "queued" is it queued at the remote mail serverThe 250 codes always mean "OK" -- when they occur after you have sent the E-mail, it means that the remote mailserver has accepted it. The "queued" or "accepted" or whatever message that follows is usually irrelevant.
because it is busy?
Are the 250 codes always status messages back to the sending mail
server?
