4.4.2 Email Bounce Error
Reason
Network Connection Timed Out: Delayed Message
The email message has not yet been delivered because the sender’s email provider and the recipient’s email provider got disconnected before the message had been handed over for delivery.
How to fix?
The sender’s email system will retry this message a few more times and provide further updates. If the sender is not notified within a few days that the message was delivered, try sending it again. Or contact the recipient another way, such as phone or text message.
