When a hard bounce result is received during email delivery, the system registers the recipient email address in the send block list.
- Addresses registered in the list are retained for 7 days (168 hours) by default, and the hold time can be changed.
- If you change the send block hold time, the change applies only to addresses registered afterward and does not affect addresses already registered.
A hard bounce is a delivery result code indicating a permanent failure that prevents email delivery, and resend attempts continue to fail. Example: Send an email to a non-existent address.
The following delivery result codes are classified as hard bounces:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| MAILBOX_ERROR | Sending failed due to recipient mailbox error. |
| MAIL_CONTENTS_ERROR | Sending failed due to mail content error. |
| NETWORK_ERROR | Sending failed due to network error. |
| RECEIVE_MAIL_SERVICE_ERROR | Sending failed due to recipient mail service error. |
| RECIPIENT_ADDRESS_ERROR | Sending failed due to recipient address error. |
| SECURITY_AND_POLICY_ERROR | Sending failed due to security and policy error. |
| SMTP_ERROR | Sending failed due to SMTP error on the recipient side. |
If you attempt to send an email to an address registered in the send block list, the email delivery is blocked with the result code SEND_BLOCK_ADDRESS.
