My understanding, please correct me if I am wrong, is that the *.nk2 files (on the user's machine) is the Outlook addressing (quick-type, auto-filler whatever you call that "feature") cache.
When we migrated our users from "an un-named older yet superior technology" to Exchange 2003 we deleted the CONTACT data we had created for them in the GAL. Exchange auto-magically created their new entries in the GAL and life is Good if people pull the addresses from THE GAL listing. If, however, they go with the data that pops up when they start to address an email (i.e. I type "Eddie" and "Eddie Albert" automatically pops up in the address box) the information contained in that cached data is the OLD contact email address on the old system, not their new data on exchange and the email bounces back. /ALE > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Chris Scharff > Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 11:45 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Phantom issue causing intermittent NDRs > > Why did you need to delete the *.nk2 file?
