Solution

Referring to SAP Note 2819033 – No delivery to * as logon data invalid – XS857.

This issue is coming due an issue at mail server level, please ask your mail admin to check the mail server settings.

From ‘RFC 1893 – Enhanced Mail System Status Codes’ the code 5.7.3 means:

  • 5.X.X Permanent Failure: A permanent failure is one which is not likely to be resolved by resending the message in the current form. Some change to the message or the destination must be made for successful delivery.
  • X.7.3 Security conversion required but not possible. A conversion from one secure messaging protocol to another was required for delivery and such conversion was not possible. This is useful only as a permanent error.
