PSA: If Your Google Apps E-Mail Is Bouncing…
Public Service Announcement
A couple clients told me their e-mails to my Google Apps Gmail were bouncing with this error message:
The user you are trying to contact is receiving mail at a rate
550-5.2.1 that prevents additional messages from being delivered.
Eek. Bouncing e-mail makes my stomach drop. I did a little research and found if your e-mail is always open (which mine is), Google looks into it as a security risk. Signing out every once in a while will take care of it.
I wish they would just let me know rather than block me. Then make me take time to research it.
