Bouncing is highly unusual for cloud based mail systems as it is now an ineffective method for spam systems to remove obsolete emails, and malicious spammers can use this to clean up their databases by purging the bounced emails, or trolling for valid email accounts. It can also be used as a

I’m using Mail, and my provider is Verizon. I checked my settings online, and they do have an option where they delete spam automatically. I’ve changed that to have it save the messages in a spamdetecter folder. I should be able to see which messages are coming from the LiveCode lists. Still

Typically the hosting service handles the spam filtering before your email client gets it. That's the filter I was referring to. GMail users may not have the same options though. On 11/17/16 1:31 PM, Colin Holgate wrote: That would make sense if you had spam system that sent back a rejection

That would make sense if you had spam system that sent back a rejection message. I don’t use spam filters, I just let some emails go into Mail’s Junk mailbox. But I’ve also had the excessive bounce message a few times. For what it’s worth, my Junk mailbox currently has four emails from Roger

Possibly because someone is using your email address in a forged header to send spam to others and your address is the one that has been reported and blocked in spam filters everywhere. Without seeing the initial bounce messages, no one can tell. Do you have one of those? I can look at it for

Heather is looking into the issue, and it’s not bounces of posts that you tried to make, it's bounces of the emails other people posted, when they try to get sent to you. > On Nov 16, 2016, at 11:19 PM, Jacques Clavel wrote: > > I don't understand why I was disabled

I was also de-subscribed for excessive bounces - and I'm not using gmail. I wonder whether it was related to the great DYN attack of October 21st? (Probably not - my suspension started on October 28th, and for various reasons it took me a few days to see what was happening and re-subscribe.)
