5.1.2 or other punctuation after the recipient's email address. m42sm71678599eef.0

and say mail could not be sent, it seems the mail however is arriving

how can i solve the problem
 
The first step to solve it is to share a little more information. Like ...

  • Machine
  • Version of Mac OS
  • Mail program (Apple Mail?)
  • Internet connection
Was mail working OK before? Did something change? Give us something to go on.

Error -17099 is an Entourage error kSMTPServerReplyErr, and is returned when the SMTP server has returned a permanent or transient error or returns an unexpected result code.

This error is coming from your ISP.

Users have reported this error when sending to large groups. ISPs limit the number in a group. Usual number is 50 recipients to avoid spammer misuse. Entourage has no limit. You should contact your mail provider to ascertain the maximum number of recipients per message and note it. You can use the free "Split Recipients" script to send a mass e-mail in separate mailings automatically:
