Introduction
This document describes when Delay Warning Messages are generated on the configuration of the Email Security Appliance's (ESA) bounce profile settings.
When Does Delay Warning Messages in Bounce Profile Settings Gets Generated?
Note: Delay Warning Messages are disabled by default in Bounce Profiles configuration.
Delay Warning Messages which are configurable in the Bounce Profile settings are generated by the ESA on the second delivery attempt to the recipient host. The messages can only be generated when the ESA receives a 4xx Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) reply code on delivery attempt.
When an email encounters delayed delivery due to an 4xx SMTP reply code, the information is logged on the mail_logs and Message tracking logs with the associated delivery attempt.
Here is an example of the Delay Warning Message that is generated by the ESA in the mail_logs.
