emails from outlook to bigpond.net.au

Emails sent using Outlook & outlook.com account (on HP Laptop, iMac & iPhone) to a family bigpond.net.au address are not getting through for last 3 days. Web-version does not appear to have this problem.

I'm not very tech so struggling with all the articles with similar messages & solutions.

Does anyone have a simple explanation/solution I could follow?

Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:

"******@bigpond.net.au"
Your message wasn't delivered. Despite repeated attempts to deliver your message, a connection to the remote server couldn't be made.

Contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) and ask them to tell their email admin that it appears that your email system is unable to connecto their email system. Give them the error details shown below. It's likely that the recipient's email admin is the only one who can fix this problem.

    Hi Glenn

    Thanks for your response. I have just been on the phone to Telstra, who state that it isn't their problem, its a problem with Outlook email (interestingly only emails to bigpond.net.au and bigpond.com are being blocked - all other emails are getting through, including to hotmail and gmail accounts as well as emails to company email addresses).

    So back to reviewing my outlook account to determine why these emails are being blocked.

    regards

    Kate

    Thanks for the additional information, Kate. And my apologies for the late reply.

    It's kind of hard to believe what they say especially if the bounce message that you're getting specifically states: "Contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) and ask them to tell their email admin that it appears that your email system is unable to connect to their email system. Give them the error details shown below. It's likely that the recipient's email admin is the only one who can fix this problem." Emphasis on the bolded part.

    If we go by the message you get, Kate, it seems to be a problem from their end which reinforced by the fact that the issue is very specific i.e. only happens when sending emails using an Outlook.com or Hotmail.com email account to a Big Pond / Telstra / Optus email address.

    At any rate, I'll bringing this up with with our internal support team to have this investigated further. But I can't promise an ETA on fix for now. Instead expect an update in the next 72 hours.

    Respectfully,

    Glenn

    P.S. To everyone else who has commented, please see my reply above. Thanks.

    Will the Microsoft rep please look more deeply into this issue - all whom has commented here have a Microsoft e-mail address and we are all having similar issues now with a varied number of e-mail recipients.

    I have the same issue, but with only one hotmail address, the other one works fine...sends to bigpond.com no problem.

    This is REALLY annoying, I hope it gets sorted soon !

    Yes agree Des,

    Glenn (Microsoft) are you able to undertake a more complete look into this it may or may not be a Bigpond issue but it is affecting Microsoft users in my case Hotmail. Any assistance is appreciated.

    Regards,

    Steve Hell
