I sent email to a group, using microsoft entourage. I got a message from Mailer-Daemon which includes this: " HPS@smtp809.mail.sc5.yahoo.com.-216.145.48.35 does not like recipient (more is in a code I can't interpret), but part of which it states that the "message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand this format, some or all of this message may not be legible". My question: how do I change the format? |

MIME type simply tells the system what application to use to display a particular document. For example mime type of text/html will use browser to display the document. You can't change the format. What you can do is, open the document using applications like notepad or word pad. If you can post the complete error message including the error code, I may be able to tell you the exact problem. |

Your problem isn't with the MIME type, looks like it's with the email addressing in Entourage <HPS@smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com>: > 216.145.48.35 does not like recipient. > Remote host said: 550 5.1.2 <HPS@smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com>... Unsupported > mail destination Entourage is trying to send mail to "hps@smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com", and yahoo.com mailservers are kicking it back and telling you they can't find that address. Entourage should be going through the HPS group and sending email to each recipient at their own email address. For example if HPS group consisted of: Joe Smith jsmith@example.com Jane Doe jdoe@example.net Mary Roe mroe@example.biz Then your group would show up as to HPS in send email screen, but Entourage would actually be sending email to jsmith@example.com, jdoe@example.net, mroe@example.biz, etc. Not to HPS@example.com So check your Entourage settings for email accounts and also the email addresses of the folks in your group. I'm not to familiar with Entourage, so try also the Entourage Help menu or your PC's Help and Support system. -- hope this helps amiable_feline |
