MessagingException: 450 Unable to complete command, no storage available

Hi,

Would like to seek advice on what could be the cause of the following error message:

javax.mail.MessagingException: 450 Unable to complete command, no storage available

The above error was encountered while sending the emails regardless of whether the mail has attachment or not. It happens intermittently.

The "no storage available " is refering to which storage space, smtp server? jvm? or ?

Thanks in advance.

Rgds,

It's an error message from your SMTP server.

I tried to find the SMTP error code 450 from the web, it actually stated a different description from the one I see from my application server log:

"SMTP Error - 450

Requested mail action not taken: mailbox unavailable"

These error messages are not the same right?

The "450 Unable to complete command, no storage available" msg is flagged out due to the communication between the Java caller program and the SMTP server.

While "SMTP Error - 450

Requested mail action not taken: mailbox unavailable" msg is flagged out due to the communcation between the local SMTP server and the remote SMTP server,.

Is my above understanding correct?

So base on your reply, it means the problems lies in the SMTP right?

We will trace again on the SMTP log and the disc space, though we did previously done that, there seem to be no error flagging out from there and there is enough disc space.

Would appreciate if you can give us some ideas on what to check on.

Thanks again.

We have re-checked again.

It seems that even though this error was encountered, the email still managed to be sent out successfully.

Thanks for your reply.

The SMTP spec only defines the error codes, it doesn't define the text that

goes with them. The server can include whatever text it wants. For that

matter, the meaning of the error codes is somewhat flexible. The server

might use the same error code for many different error conditions, using

the text the distinguish the conditions.
