XF 1.5 Automated bounced users

[Sunka]

I setup options in ACP but I do not know is automatic bouncing for users working or not working

I switch to Amazon SES for outgoing e-mails (SMPT), and it working like it should be.
I created gmail for bounced e-mails and setup that in ACP for automated bounced e-mail handler too.
All configuration you can see on screenshot below.

Also, I create Amazon SNS thread and notificaton for bounced e-mails and suscribe with bounced email address.

There is no log for bounced emails/users in ACP

If you send an email to the bounce account directly, does it get logged in the XF ACP eventually? (This can take around 30 minutes.) If so, it's going to be an issue with SES not sending the bounces to that address as expected.

 

[Sunka]

yep, xenforo "read" those emails, but nothing show up in log for bounced emails/users in ACP.

 

[Mike]

Are there any server error logs listed? You mention that XF "read" the email, but if there's no log entry in the ACP for it, then I'm not sure if that's the case. XF will log every email it reads, regardless of whether it's a bounce. Note that if you read the mail yourself, it's likely that XF won't process it again.

I get notification that there is new mail in my bounced e-mail, after xenforo cron is passed, mails are not show any more (they are automatically archived after reading).
Is there problem maybe that xenforo can not recognize that this is bounced email?

Example of mail for test user with fake mail:

That's not a bounce -- it's a notification from AWS/SNS, but it's not what a normal bounced email looks like. So no, XF won't be able to process that. (There should still be a log that it read it though.)

There should still be a log that it read it though

Ah, now log shows something.
Is it like expected?
Is this image confirm that now automated bounced and bounced email settings is configured OK?

 

[Sunka]

Also, will users with status user state email invalid (bounced) get some notification regarding that, or should I create some notice for that users?

 

[Paul B]

They will see a notice at the top of the page when they next log in.

 

[Sunka]

what is phrase for that notice so I could change it, and is ther way to disable that notice and create custom one with default notice system?

 

[Mike]

Probably easiest to set an account to that state so you can see it directly (and confirm your edits work as you expect).

is ther way to disable that notice and create custom one with default notice system?

In short, no.

 

[Paul B]

The phrase is: attempts_to_email_x_have_failed_please_update

Same issue here.
Any idea how to turn from "notificationType" to "normal bounced email"? I'm out of ideas after trying many alternatives.
I'm also using bd_mails as @Mouth stated here, but still no results:

{"notificationType":"Bounce","bounce":{"bounceType":"Permanent","bounceSubType":"General","bouncedRecipients":[{"emailAddress":"sinpubli <sinpubli12312as@gmail.com>","action":"failed","status":"5.1.1","diagnosticCode":"smtp; 550-5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist. Please try\n550-5.1.1 double-checking the recipient's email address for typos or\n550-5.1.1 unnecessary spaces.

Thanks for your help!

After many attempts I noticed that "Delivery Status Notification (Failure)" arrive to "Default Email Address" when no "Bounced Email Address" is stated at "Email Options":


But, when I write the bounced email address... nothing goes to that address, neither to spam:

Is there a bug? Any idea why that's not working?

On the other hand, if I set up SNS and SES at AWS (as explained by @Anthony Parsons https://xenforo.com/community/threads/amazon-ses-with-xenforo.25136/page-4#post-938849 thanks! ), emails arrive, but as mentioned before, just the notification, not the bounced email:

So went back to no-SNS...

I don't know what else to try

Just in case someone have the same problem.
Finally solved it by registering and verifing bounced email accout also at AWS > SES, without SNS.
There was also a problem with google security, it blocked access from server to the email account because first time I didn't activate the "less secure app". Solved by changing the password and confirmation that it was "me" from server IP.
