X.4.2 Bad connection
The outbound connection was established, but was otherwise
unable to complete the message transaction, either because
of time-out, or inadequate connection quality. This is
useful only as a persistent transient error.
X.4.3 Directory server failure
The network system was unable to forward the message,
because a directory server was unavailable. This is useful
only as a persistent transient error.
The inability to connect to an Internet DNS server is one
example of the directory server failure error.
X.4.4 Unable to route
The mail system was unable to determine the next hop for the
message because the necessary routing information was
unavailable from the directory server. This is useful for
both permanent and persistent transient errors.
Vaudreuil Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 1893 Mail System Status Codes January 1996
A DNS lookup returning only an SOA (Start of Administration)
record for a domain name is one example of the unable to
route error.
X.4.5 Mail system congestion
The mail system was unable to deliver the message because
the mail system was congested. This is useful only as a
persistent transient error.
X.4.6 Routing loop detected
A routing loop caused the message to be forwarded too many
times, either because of incorrect routing tables or a user
forwarding loop. This is useful only as a persistent
transient error.
X.4.7 Delivery time expired
The message was considered too old by the rejecting system,
either because it remained on that host too long or because
the time-to-live value specified by the sender of the
message was exceeded. If possible, the code for the actual
problem found when delivery was attempted should be returned
rather than this code. This is useful only as a persistent
transient error.
3.6 Mail Delivery Protocol Status
X.5.0 Other or undefined protocol status
Something was wrong with the protocol necessary to deliver
the message to the next hop and the problem cannot be well
expressed with any of the other provided detail codes.
X.5.1 Invalid command
A mail transaction protocol command was issued which was
either out of sequence or unsupported. This is useful only
as a permanent error.
X.5.2 Syntax error
A mail transaction protocol command was issued which could
not be interpreted, either because the syntax was wrong or
the command is unrecognized. This is useful only as a
permanent error.
Vaudreuil Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 1893 Mail System Status Codes January 1996
X.5.3 Too many recipients
More recipients were specified for the message than could
have been delivered by the protocol. This error should
normally result in the segmentation of the message into two,
the remainder of the recipients to be delivered on a
subsequent delivery attempt. It is included in this list in
the event that such segmentation is not possible.
X.5.4 Invalid command arguments
A valid mail transaction protocol command was issued with
invalid arguments, either because the arguments were out of
range or represented unrecognized features. This is useful
only as a permanent error.
X.5.5 Wrong protocol version
A protocol version mis-match existed which could not be
automatically resolved by the communicating parties.
3.7 Message Content or Message Media Status
X.6.0 Other or undefined media error
Something about the content of a message caused it to be
considered undeliverable and the problem cannot be well
expressed with any of the other provided detail codes.
X.6.1 Media not supported
The media of the message is not supported by either the
delivery protocol or the next system in the forwarding path.
This is useful only as a permanent error.
X.6.2 Conversion required and prohibited
The content of the message must be converted before it can
be delivered and such conversion is not permitted. Such
prohibitions may be the expression of the sender in the
message itself or the policy of the sending host.
X.6.3 Conversion required but not supported
The message content must be converted to be forwarded but
such conversion is not possible or is not practical by a
host in the forwarding path. This condition may result when
an ESMTP gateway supports 8bit transport but is not able to
Vaudreuil Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 1893 Mail System Status Codes January 1996
downgrade the message to 7 bit as required for the next hop.
X.6.4 Conversion with loss performed
This is a warning sent to the sender when message delivery
was successfully but when the delivery required a conversion
in which some data was lost. This may also be a permanant
error if the sender has indicated that conversion with loss
is prohibited for the message.
X.6.5 Conversion Failed
A conversion was required but was unsuccessful. This may be
useful as a permanent or persistent temporary notification.
3.8 Security or Policy Status
X.7.0 Other or undefined security status
Something related to security caused the message to be
returned, and the problem cannot be well expressed with any
of the other provided detail codes. This status code may
also be used when the condition cannot be further described
because of security policies in force.
X.7.1 Delivery not authorized, message refused
The sender is not authorized to send to the destination.
This can be the result of per-host or per-recipient
filtering. This memo does not discuss the merits of any
such filtering, but provides a mechanism to report such.
This is useful only as a permanent error.
X.7.2 Mailing list expansion prohibited
The sender is not authorized to send a message to the
intended mailing list. This is useful only as a permanent
error.
X.7.3 Security conversion required but not possible
A conversion from one secure messaging protocol to another
was required for delivery and such conversion was not
possible. This is useful only as a permanent error.
Vaudreuil Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 1893 Mail System Status Codes January 1996
X.7.4 Security features not supported
A message contained security features such as secure
authentication which could not be supported on the delivery
protocol. This is useful only as a permanent error.
X.7.5 Cryptographic failure
A transport system otherwise authorized to validate or
decrypt a message in transport was unable to do so because
necessary information such as key was not available or such
information was invalid.
X.7.6 Cryptographic algorithm not supported
A transport system otherwise authorized to validate or
decrypt a message was unable to do so because the necessary
algorithm was not supported.
X.7.7 Message integrity failure
A transport system otherwise authorized to validate a
message was unable to do so because the message was
corrupted or altered. This may be useful as a permanent,
transient persistent, or successful delivery code.

This document describes a status code system with increased
precision. Use of these status codes may disclose additional
information about how an internal mail system is implemented beyond
that currently available.
