Email sending issues from connect

Hi there

i’m sending emails but after sending a few i get the below:

com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException: Couldn’t connect to host, port: smtp.mandrillapp.com, 587; timeout 60000;

  • nested exception is:*
  • java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect.*
  • com.objectiflune.core.base.ApplicationException: com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException: Couldn’t connect to host, port: smtp.mandrillapp.com, 587; timeout 60000;*
  • nested exception is:*
  • java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect*

  • at com.objectiflune.core.operations.a.run(a.java)*
  • at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:122)*

anyone got any ideas what it could be? i have a colleague who uses the same system and doesn’t get this problem so it must be a config on my PC ?

Thanks, Richard

You’re running into a timeout. Mandrill, like most email services, has hourly quotas that depend on your service agreement, your reputation, etc.

You might want to get in touch with them to determine if your account has such a quota.
