    Hi all
    I have had no problem for years using digiweb broadband and emails
    I have an eircom.net address for my business and a diginet.ie for my personnal email addresses



    for a while now I have been unable to send firstly photos (maybe 2 mbs) to gmail.com now it seems any attachment will not go
    this is a reply I got after trying to send a Word document from eircom.net to gmail.com in December

    I can send emails without asttachments but they can take anything from 1 minute to 2 days to arrive
    my incoming mail is pop.eircom.net
    my outgoing mail is smtp.digiweb.ie

    it is now the same on the diginet.ie account
    my incoming mail is webmail.digiweb.ie
    my outgoing mail is smtp.digiweb.ie

    any ideas what the problem is
    as always any help greatly appreciated

    Thanks for your reply Ahren
     I spoke to Digiweb support and after about a half an hour he told me to either change my email address because it's too old or change my isp cpmpany digiweb can't help me.
     I then phoned Eir, they were a bit more clued in, we tried a few different things one of which was trying a test attachment from eircom.net to gmail.com with an attachment using Eir webmail, it worked
    we checked if my ipaddress was recognised as spam it wasn't
    we checked if my email address was listed as a spammer it wasn't
    the chap I spoke to (sorry not sure of his name possibly Mark) was very patient and smart he thought it was an outlook issue
    this is a message I get
    your message to xxxxxxxxxxxx was considered unsolicited bulk e-mail (SPAM) by our mail filters.
    it comes from
    SpamTitan <postmaster@viatel.net>
    He suggested if we can't get it sorted then we could configure Outlook to launch onto the webmail as apposed to what it normally does, we left it at that
    so I rang Microsoft office support to ask about it
    they hadn't a clue and never heard of Viatel, so I guess I'll get back onto Eir to find out how to configure Outlook to use webmail
    I'm not happy as the email I'm using is a business address for over 20 years
    any ideas please post
    Regards
    D

    That error means that viatel.net are not accepting email from eircom.net because the spam filter they are using, SpamTitan, have it classed as spam. Not sure theres much you can do about that.

    To be honest, if your business relies on your email, you should invest in a properly supported email platform. You can put a forward in place.

    As for the first problem:

    This is one of Gmail's mail servers replying to say that the Gmail account you tried to send to does not exist. You'll need to check the spelling. It's not an eircom.net or digiweb problem.
