[10-13-11 18:14]: I have a mailing list of emails for an organization for which I write the newsletter. Each month I mail out the newsletter, and I get back a notification that a particular email address fails to be delivered because it doesn't exist. When I type the address into the search box in Thunderbird's address window, the address doesn't exist in my address list.
I have checked every email address in the list of addresses, and the address isn't included in the list.
Here is the notification that I receive:

first check for a bcc (blind carbon copy) in the header of your original outgoing email. Also check for an alias containing that addr, it might refer to a good address.
are you starting with a *new* email or a template, the template may contain the errant addr.

Each time I send out the emails, I send them as bcc so that the mailing address list can't be captured by someone else. What I normally do when I do the mailings is to click on the "write" button once for each of the six groups in the list. In the address window I click bcc, then type in the subdivision of the entire list, such as A-D, E-L, etc. Then I attach the newsletter to each email, paste in a subject in the subject window, and hit send. If I understand your reply, then sending them as a bcc could be the cause of this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
