Hi, After an Exchange admin at the top of the forest reset the default RUS (@X2k.com.xxx to @W2k.com.xxx) and added a RUS policy that went way beyond the correct scope a lot of stuff went totally pear-shaped here. Lots of people, P/Folders, dist lists and groups got a new default SMTP address on another domain in the forest.
This is mostly fixed, all addresses have been corrected and automated updating turned firmly OFF. Now the main hangover is mail-enabled groups and dist lists, messages appear to send but no errors, bounce, ndr or anything stuck in a queue, they just disappear in to the ether. Seems a bit like the trick of deleting unwanted messages to a list with no members - but these lists DO have members. Created a new test DL with same result. Any ideas where to look for a fix? Setup: 3 x W2k SP3 Exchange servers Local DCs and GCs all W2K SP4 - mostly SP4 before forest config error. All AD controllers re-started today, all Exchange services re-started.
