I tried sending an e-mail to icg_president and and got the following auto-reply -- shouldn't it be icg_president@costume.org?

Send it to Phil.

 

Looking closer, it is a fake address. Delete it.

I think it should be icg-president@... not icg_president@...

It’s icg-president@costume.org - @kevin.p.roche @Andy Trembley  - is this related to the google groups set up for the ICG-president google drive account?

Haven’t started on that yet, and the plan is designed to not impact (or even touch) the existing costume.org forwarding addresses.

Ok.  Any idea what caused Anne’s bizarre bounce back?

Mera she sent it to gmail

The underscore is the problem. I've reproduced the message by sending a test to the same address.

 

The response coming from gmail is because of the activiation of the gSuite for non-profits. Our existing emails are grandfathered in through the old server, but new ones are passed to the gSuite mailserver, which is running Google Mail under the covers (aka enterprise level gmail).

 

Since icg_president is not the right address, it was passed on to the new handler and bounced from there.

the MX records for costume.org still point to 174.127.110.168. They don't route to Gmail at all yet.

Anne typoed the address.

Kevin's bounce was from the gmail servers because he was sending from gmail.

bounces always come from the last successful submission hop. Since mail rarely makes multiple hops anymore, that's the server you submit to when you hit send, because it can't hop to the destination server on error.
