    Hi All,

    I was wondering if you could help me with a email marketing related question. We receive a fair number of "Bounced" emails and to clean up our mailing list I am looking to better deal with these. As such I was hopping you could help me categories the following as either "hard" "soft" bounces??

    Deferred: Operation timed out with
    Deferred: Connection refused by
    Deferred: Operation timed out with
    Mailbox disk quota exceeded
    mailbox is full: retry timeout exceeded
    reason: 550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
    User is unknown {mx-us010})
    (reason: 550 "Unknown user")
    (reason: 550 5.2.1 The email account that you tried to reach is disabled.

    Any help you can give would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Liam

    1,2,3 hard bounce
    4,5, 6 soft bounce
    7,8,9 hard bounce

    You could drop an email address from your list say as example when the foll criteria is met:
    1 hard bounce
    3 soft bounces
