Hosting Pack: This is a common hosting configuration problem when someone creates a contact in OU1 and creates a user in OU2 with the same e-mail address via user provisioning tool. Troubleshooting: This happens when contactA has an alternate recipient that points to contactB which then has an alternate recipient that points back to contactA . Check the contact's alternate recipient. Check and remove targetAddress attribute from mailbox-enabled users. For hosting where you want to send mail from one user in one company (OU) to another company (OU), you should configure the following two related objects: User: SMTP proxy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Contact: targetAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; SMTP proxy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Tim McGrath [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 8:37 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: configuration question this is what is sent back to a user that is trying to e-mail any one in my organization This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

Look for the globe thingy in your address book and check that's it's valid address if you are forwarding a users mail externally. The article below reads a mail look to me however. Clarify: Are you sending to a client running exchange that is not part of your exchange organisation? What does the NDR say? What happens when you try sending not to the client's mailbox, but there supposed alternate recipient address? -----Original Message----- From: Tim McGrath [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 15 January 2002 5:10 p.m. To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: configuration question yes I have a client with a small business server running exchange. I'm new to exchange and I'm having some problems. When you try and send them e-mail you get an NDR. I found an article with the fix for it but I'm not sure how to configure it here is the fix from the article Troubleshooting: This happens when contactA has an alternate recipient that points to contactB which then has an alternate recipient that points back to contactA .
