# SMTP Recipient Pitfalls
|

**Last updated:** Jul 10, 2026

## Valid Recipient Address — Critical
|
|
|
|
The ONLY valid recipient for Germaine is `g@germainebrown.com`.
|
|
|
|
- `g@germainebrown.com` — ✅ 250 Accepted by MXroute
|
|
- `germaine@germainebrown.com` — ❌ 550 No such recipient here
|
|
- `g@iamgmb.com` — ❌ 550 No such recipient here
|
|
- `germaine@itpropartner.com` — ❌ 550 No such recipient here
|
|
|
|
The MXroute Exim server at `mail.germainebrown.com:2525` rejects any address that doesn't have a mailbox on the server. Only `shonuff@germainebrown.com` (sender) and `g@germainebrown.com` (recipient) have mailboxes.
|
|
|
|
**Always BCC shonuff@germainebrown.com** on every outbound send — partially as a record, partially so the shonuff-inbox-collect.py can detect replies.
