Please restart the program and you will be able to change the configuration settings for this connector. Contact your Mobile Information Server server administrator if you do not know what settings to use.

    This error message may occur if you entered incorrect information for the Mobile Information Server computer. In this case, Outlook Mobile Manager does not initialize correctly. If this error message occurs, restart Outlook Mobile Manager from the system tray, or use the menu option, and then verify that the configuration information for the Mobile Information Server computer is correct.

  • Error 2909: The SMTP connector could not connect to the server. The server may be down, or the system may be too low on resources to allow the connection to be made. The message will automatically be retried.

    This error message may occur if computer resources are low. This message more likely indicates that there is a problem with server connectivity. To resolve this issue, verify that you have network connectivity and that your server is available.

  • Error 2900, 2902: The SMTP connector got "an error response" from the SMTP server. The message was not sent and will not be retried.

    These error messages occur if there is a problem at the SMTP server that you are using to forward messages to your device. This error message does not indicate a problem with network connectivity, but it may indicate that the server is down or unreachable. The "error response" message is a 500 level error message. The actual HTTP 500 level error message that is received is included in the log entry with an extended error response string from the service. The extended error response is a delivery status notification error code, which is described in Request for Comments (RFC) 1893. The 500 level error and the delivery status notification error code in the log indicate where the problem occurs. The following list describes the common 500 level error messages and the delivery status notification extended error responses that are included with the error message:

    • 500, 501, 502, 503, 504, 552, 553, 554: These error codes should never occur because they indicate that either an improperly formed request is being sent to the server, the server does not exist, the server cannot process the request that is being made, or the server is returning an invalid response. If these error messages occur, check your connector configuration and check for network connectivity. If the connector configuration is correct, and you have network connectivity, you may need to remove and reinstall Outlook Mobile Manager and your browser.

    • 550, 551: Typically, these error codes indicate that your server is not set up to relay to another SMTP server that knows the destination address. You must point to a server that can send SMTP messages outside any firewall. If these error messages continue, contact your administrator to ensure that SMTP-relaying is not prohibited at your server.

    For more information about delivery status notification error codes, review RFC 1893.
     

  • Error 2901, 2903: The SMTP connector got a transient error response from the SMTP server. The message will automatically be retried.

    These error messages may occur if there is a problem at the SMTP server that you are using to forward messages to your device. The 2901 and 2903 error codes differ from error codes 2900 and 2902 in that they are transient error codes rather than permanent failures. When these codes occur, message forwarding is retried. These error messages may indicate a problem with network connectivity, but they may indicate that the server is down or unreachable temporarily. The error response code is a 400 level error code. The actual HTTP 400 level error message that was received with an extended error response string from the service is included in the log entry. The extended error response is a delivery status notification error code as described in RFC 1893. The combination of the 400 level error messages and the delivery status notification error code in the log should give an indication of where the problem is occurring. The following list describes the HTTP 400 level error messages that may occur.

    Note The delivery status notification error codes in the preceding section apply to these error logs as well.

    • HTTP 421: The server is shutting the SMTP service down. This issue may occur for various reasons that indicate problems at the server. There may also be problems with the DNS server. Contact an administrator for the SMTP server to verify the stability of the SMTP service.

    • 450, 451, 452: The server had some local problems that should clear up. These may be maintenance problems that caused the SMTP service to stop and start, or the server may have been restarted. The error message occurs when the first the message is forwarded; subsequent retries should succeed.

    • 454: The client did not have authorization to connect to the server. This issue may occur because your SMTP server may not be set up to allow anonymous access. You must point to a server that allows you to log on anonymously. SMTP servers that require authentication do not allow Outlook Mobile Manager to work successfully, and these errors continue to be logged.

  • Error 2904, 2905: The SMTP connector could not be initialized because it failed a memory allocation. Please shut down some programs to increase system resources and then restart the program.

    This error message can occur if there is a memory or resource deficiency on the computer. To resolve this issue, quit any extra programs are running that may be exhausting memory resources.

  • Error 2908: Microsoft Outlook Mobile Manager could not initialize because the SMTP connector is not configured correctly. Please restart the program and you will be able to change the configuration settings for this connector. Contact your administrator if you do not know what settings to use.

    This error message can occur if you have entered incorrect information for the SMTP server. In this case, Outlook Mobile Manager cannot be initialized correctly. If this error message occurs, restart Outlook Mobile Manager by using the system tray icon or menu option, and then verify that the configuration information for the SMTP server is correct.
