How many X.400 connectors do you have defined on the central machine? (And maybe on remote ones as well). If you have "too many": you will need to increase the number of Control Blocks being used. Take a search through MS KB for "TCPIP Control Blocks". These are set in the Registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeMTA\Parameter s\
There are other parameters that may need to be modified at the same time.

It there any chance you (the collective you) could include the Event ID source and description in addition to the number? And that you could provide an example of sent/ received times which constitute a "too long" delivery time. [1] When I worked at $vbc we initially had an MS Mail PO config which routinely resulted in >8 hour delivery times of mail from the US to Indonesia. If a user called and said it'd been six hours and the mail wasn't delivered, we didn't troubleshoot it. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bennett, Joshua [mailto:jbennett@;cotelligent.com] > Sent: Friday, November 01, 2002 8:55 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > > Hello all, > > I have an incredibly annoying situation going on that I can't seem to > get a grip on.
