Well, I guess that would kind of explain it, but not really. If it was a Rec. Policy doing this, you wouldn't think it would be random...you would think it would be an all or nothing thing.
I have one SMTP address defined of "@company.com" and the default X400 address. To try and overcome this, I am going to explicitly define both of these SMTP addresses. Let me know if these are correctly formatted: SMTP: @company.com (= logon [EMAIL PROTECTED]) smtp: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (should = [EMAIL PROTECTED]) X400: Default X400 address.
