I have just had over 100 emails bounce back with an error message. The addresses were accurate.

I have had an email bounce from all recipients when sending to a list in my T-bird address book. However when sent to a sample of individual addresses on that list they get through. Why?

Usually, you get a Mailor daemon email and it will tell you some info on why it bounced.

Maybe, the number one hundred is too many emails in the Mailing List? Suggest you split it into two lots of fifty and try again.

Maybe you tried to send too many emails in the alloted time frame than the server allows? Some servers have limits.

Maybe only one email address is incorrect and it is causing the entire list to fail? Splitting the list and sending should help you to identify where to look for a bad email address.

Are you sending the email addresses as a 'list' name or are the email addresses listed separately; one on each line? Although you may have 100 contacts/email addresses in a Mailing List in the address book, there's more than one way to send the list. If you open a new Write window and using the Contacts Sidebar, select the address book and then select the Mailing List name, it is inserted just as the list name. If you access the Address Book, select the Mailing List and click on Write, all the names are listed separately. Which method are you using? Suggest you try via the former and not the latter method.

I try to send emails, one at a time, to a number of addresses with the suffix @hotmail.co.uk They are coming back with the demon error. Any ideas, I have carefully checked that the email is correct and, in fact, some are returns to emails I have received from @hotmail.co.uk
