E-mail service cannot deliver e-mail - Event6873 (SharePoint 2010)

Troubleshooting:

• Verify that the list is configured to receive e-mail:
• In the list provided in the event details, on the List menu, click List Settings.
• On the List Settings page, under Communications, click Incoming e-mail settings.
• Verify the following:
• The correct e-mail address is entered in the E-mail address box.
