Hello,

I had a second customer using the webmail with this problem.

Curious if other SM users have heard about this problem too.

Is this the "rsp: 550 Maximum line length exceeded" error?

I've gotten a few of those lately (can't remember as of what minor version of v16). Not enough to panic about, but enough to have me scratching my head. Seems to happen with Multi-Part MIME format messages with attachments. When sent as a Plain-Text message in webmail the problem goes away. I have also seen this happen with sending via an email client to SmarterMail recently too.

This has also started happening to me since upgrading to 16.3.6841 when I email certain people using webmail.

Is there any update on this? We are not able to forward any emails to our Freshdesk account. They all come back with this error:

Reason: Remote host said: 500 Line length exceeded. See RFC 2821 #4.5.3.1.

Hello All,
This issue has been fixed and will be included in our next release. The issue was caused mostly by forwarding messages with base64 attachments.

I have upgraded to 16.3.6855 but am still seeing a few of these errors, though seemingly only from one recipients mail system.

Is anyone else seeing this issue with a version >= 16.3.6855?

Hello,

I'm just letting you know that I've experienced this error on latest SMv17/100 build (7020 - custom build):

Could not deliver message to the following recipient(s): Failed Recipient: XXXXXXXXXXX Reason: Remote host said: 550 Maximum line length exceeded (see RFC 5322 2.1.1)

We are still seeing this, though only with a few clients emails. As far as I can tell they are all using the same spam filtering service, their mx records point at various mx*.mtaroutes.com, which appears to mean they are using Solarwinds Mail Assure service.

We are still on 16.3.6855.

Exactly. MX was set to *.mtaroutes.com

550 Maximum line length exceeded - has this issue today

I have seen this in email logs for years in Smartermail and other email servers. My conclusion was this happens in a number or case but the one I see the most is sending to older exchange server have a setting to for max characters in the email header and the encryption keys, dkim key etc will throw this error. The receiving server will just reject the message
