That's what I am thinking... it's like giving me a grace period to fix my DNS servers :)
But it is a real pain when one gets spammed and then there are a lot of messages sitting in the queues for 2 days targeting bogus domains. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 9:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: SMTP retry queues Exchange is hoping that the DNS server is just down.. It is obeying the retry settings you have for the SMTP virtual server. --Kevinm M, WLKMMAS, Exchange MVP, And Beyond -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Andrey Fyodorov Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 6:31 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: SMTP retry queues Hey all. I am looking for someone who is smarter than me :) to explain to me why Exchange 2000 is keeping messages in the retry queues if there are no DNS records for the messages' destination domains? For example if I send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I can see a retry queue for boguscrapdoesnotexist.com, and it is marked "unable to bind to the destination server in DNS" Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
