Sending an email with an attachment/error message

Hello -

Apparently, you will need to revise the email you are trying to send.

From:
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN5067.html

Error: 554 Message not allowed - [numeric code]

You'll receive an SMTP error or failed delivery message that includes "554 Message not allowed" when the content of a message you're trying to send violates Yahoo Mail policies. Content that violates policies includes; objectionable links, malicious attachments, or bad header information.

Review the Yahoo Mail and Yahoo Messenger Terms of Service to learn more about Yahoo policies that can effect your ability to send messages to Yahoo Mail accounts.
If you're the administrator for the mail server in question, review your outgoing messages for obectionable content or practices.

How did I find this information? I used my favorite search engine, Google, and entered this search phrase, using quotation marks as shown:
"Yahoo mail" "Error 554"

How hard was that?

Best wishes.

Place your document face down on the scanner bed. Press the button that starts the scanning process depending on your scanner or printer.

Save the scanned file to your computer by clicking "File" in the menu bar at the top of the screen, then choose "Save as." Choose the folder in which you wish to save the document from the drop-down menu in the window that popped up during the saving process. Choose a name for the document, then click "Save."


Sign on to your email account, then choose "New" or "Compose" to start a new email message. Click on "Attachments" or "Attach." Wait for a new window to pop up, then choose the file you scanned from the folder where you saved the document.

Wait a few seconds for the file to attach, compose your email message, then click "Send." Your scanned document will now be sent to the recipient's email address.

Check your outbox and make sure the email you tried to send is no longer there because outlook tends to try and try sending a previously unsent email message.
Make sure the outbox is cleaned up.
In sending email with attachments, make sure the attachment is not too big that it exceeds 5mb to avoid these type of incidents, as a work around for multiple attachments you can try sending them in a different email message.

Hello,
To send pictures in your yahoo email account you will have to do the following steps:

• Log into your yahoo account
• Click on "Compose Message" on the top left
• Once the new message screen click on the tab that says "Attachments"
• Once on the attachment tab select "Attach Files"
• You will then have an option to browse your computer for the images you would like to attach.

Be sure to also fill our the "TO:" section of the email with the recipients email address before click the "Send button at the top left"
Best Regards, Ben

These errors mean that the size of the message, including all headers, text and attachments, exceeds the domain's maximum per-message size limit - essentially, that the email is too big to be accepted.
This means that the message wasn't sent because it was too big. You need to take out something from the email to that it's small enough to send.

Delivery Status means what happened with the delivery eg sent, failed.

The recipient domain didn't accept the email because it was too large.
I would advise you to send the email in 2 smaller packages.

25MB message size
Send and receive up to 25MB per message. That means sharing lots of photos, music, video, and presentations without worrying about bumping up against message limits.

Using MAPI ( Messaging Application Program Interface) with Microsoft Outlook Express 5/6:

Usin Web-based E-mail Programs to Send Files *aol, yahoo etc...*:
Web based Email programs don't support MAPI functions. If you click on the Send button, it will not work. To send email files, follow the steps below:
1. Log in to your web based email service.
2.Compose a new email message.
3. Depending on your web based email service, look for the Attach, Attachments, or Insert option to attach your file. You will be prompted to browse for the desired file you want to attach. Change the directory to where you saved your file and attach the files.

I think this the software problem please reinstall windows. if not make another id & then try again.
