How do I stop a email that I sent, that now keeps coming back as "fail", again and again and again without me trying to send it again?!
I'm retired and I sent an email to a buddy back at work ( U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) It ends; @usace.army.mil. The email keeps coming back "fail" even though I only sent it once. How do I stop the system from continually trying to re-send the email. I've contacted my buddy on the phone and he said I've got the right email address, yet it keeps coming back "fail". ????

Some mail servers will continue to attempt delivery for as much as 72 hours. One thing you need to take particular notice of is the failure reason. What is it?
Thanks Matt. I looked as you suggested and it mostly says "Permanent Error" As you can see below. (I copied and pasted what I kept getting back from them.) Hopefully it'll stop after 72 hours. Thanks again for your efforts and consideration. :>)
