Hi,

I recently received this message when sending an email (MS Outlook):

 

Category: Email Errors
Date & Time,Risk,Activity,Status,Recommended Action
2012-01-31 09:14:29,High,421 Resources temporarily unavailable - Please try again later ,Error,No Action Required

 

I discovered that the email had not been sent although it showed as sent in Outlook.

What does this error mean please?

 

edit:  I recently installed Norton Utilities as part of my new subscription; not sure if that is relevant.

It just happened again, twice, for an email.

Some help would be appreciated

Thank you for the quick response.  I have never seen the message before and I have used NIS for several years.  I DO get error messages from the ISP (BT) when there is a problem with logon or timeout.

The annoying thing with NIS doing it is that the email has to be re-sent.

Anyway, I will keep my eye on it.

Hi baldeagleuk:

 

These 421 Resource messages should be very transient in nature.

 

If you are having continued problem, definitely contact your Mailhost and/or ISP.

Remember that NIS is just reporting the error and that it is not a NIS issue. :smileyhappy:

 

Take care!
