Database mail messages are being queued but they are never delivered


I have database mail configured properly, it has been working all along but then suddenly iam getting the error below in the description column of the sysmail_event_log view database msdb.

Any idea why i could be getting this error message?

Bellow is the error.

"The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 1 (2014-02-25T08:29:30). Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: Unable to complete command, no storage available)"

Solution

  • This is issue was caused by the server admins had dis-commissioning the SMTP server with out notice and i was referring to a non existent SMTP server IP address.
