Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 72265
email merge pausing at bad addresses
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:45:15 UTC
See URL for original posting. am using Writer along with Base to send out mass email notices to our alumni. The problem is that when I get to the end of the merge process and it actually start to send, the program pauses whenever there is an SMTP error (bad address). I can go into the DB and remove the bad address, but then I manually have to tag the account that did receive email so that they do not get a duplicate. Since the nature of alumni is that about every fifth address is bad, this is a tedious process. Is there any way to have Ooo complete the email merge and then I can go through the errors afterwards, instead of all of this constant pausing. (BTW, the "continue" button in the error/paused dialog is grayed out as if taunting me).
Here is the error message that python is throwing for your pleasure: smtplib.SMTPRecipientsRefused: {u'bad.user@foo.bar': (450, '<bad.user@foo.bar>: Recipient address rejected: Domain not found')}, traceback follows File "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.0\program\mailmerge.py", line 183, in sendMailMessage self.server.sendmail(sender, recipients, msg.as_string()) File "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.0\program\python-core-2.3.4\lib\smtplib.py", line 687, in sendmail raise SMTPRecipientsRefused(senderrs)
Reassigned to HI.
I confirm the issue. Problem still there in 3.1.1 Something for cmc, who is doing the py mailmerge tool (IIRC)?
