I have personally experienced this issue with Exchange 5.5. It happens very rarely and we have been unable to reproduce it at will. However, the problem seemed to start when we enabled site-level journaling (we use KVS Enterprise Vault for journaling).

How do you know it works just fine? What proactive checking is done to verify it? Say 2 people didn't get the message and they didn't realize there was a message to not get... The question is being posed because I am working with some folks who had a couple of people (that we know of) out of several thousand that got one message posted to a DL but didn't get an important followup message. It is slowly being reduced to either the expansion is screwed on the Exchange side or on the AD side and my bet is Exchange side as I don't expect AD would not return all users in a group without throwing at least one error. We know that it isn't a user issue because there is no evidence in the tracking logs of the message ever going to those people. Right now I am trying to get a comprehensive list of everyone who did get sent a message so it can be compared to the DL itself to see if it was just these two people or more. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eric Fleischman Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 7:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] [OT] Another Odd OT Question - Exchange DL based but still has an AD portion... I'm on several DLs that are thousands of users in size(some are multiple times larger than MaxValRange), and it works just fine. (by thousands of users in size, I'm talking about a single DL that is thousands of users, not nested DLs, as that is of course an entirely different test scenario that may not hit ranged retrieval) Why do you ask? Is there a followup technical question? :) ~Eric -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 3:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] [OT] Another Odd OT Question - Exchange DL based but still has an AD portion... Has anyone ever actually tested if Exchange properly delivers emails to all members of a large (many thousands of mail objects) Distribution List? Specifically where the Exchange server has to expand a DL and use attribute ranging to get all members. joe List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ ********************************************************************** This is a commercial communication from Commerzbank AG.
