What does this mean? The mail server responded: Too many messages. Please check the message and try again.

I use BT yahoo mail with Thunderbird 24.6.0 in the last few days i've started getting this message when sending messages: An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Too many messages. Please check the message and try again. Now sometimes the messages are sent anyway and sometimes not. If I re-send sometimes it works and sometimes not. I've contacted BT 'tech support' who tell me there is nothing wrong with them or their servers and as webmail works ok they won't help. I strongly suspect it IS a BT issue, Any clues to fix this?

The message means BT are lying basically. I have just spent the best part of an hour on chasing what limits BT place on mail sending... the internet contains a void.

The closest thing I can locate is a BT rep here https://community.bt.com/t5/Email/E-Mail-message-limit/m-p/1045228/highlight/true#M17523 refusing to identify what limits they impose but advising their switch to critical path has more stringent controls. AFAIK Critical path is ca mail software solution sold by OpenWave Messaging http://owmessaging.com/

So your paying for a totally undefined service. Congratulations!
