Title: Disable or Re-Route Bounces From Inbound Copy Rule

We had a similar problem, and I believe the deal was that Sprint was actually denying the messages, because the account was full. Apparently it keeps a copy of all messages, so that you have to go into their website and delete all old messages.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Disable or Re-Route Bounces From Inbound Copy Rule

 

I've got an account on an iMail server with an inbound rule to copy all emails to my SprintPCS phone. This works really well. I usually get an SMS message within 10 seconds of receiving an email. I was recently notified however that the imail server is having some trouble communicating with sprint. People sending me emails have been receiving bounce messages from the imail server. I guess the flow is that imail receives the message from the sender and tries to copy my sprint account. When it can't get through to sprint, it bounces the message back to the original sender, even though they weren't the ones trying to email my sprint account. The weird part is that I'm receiving all the SMS messages fine on my phone, so I don't know why the bounce is even being generated.

Has anyone else had trouble forwarding to sprint?

I've setup an outbound rule to try to squelch these bounce messages. Any outbound mail with my sprint address in it should be deleted. Will that work? Do outbound rules get applied to postmaster messages?

If not, is there anything else I could try?

Thanks,

Zach
