Default Sys Admin on SMTP
We are a Exchange 5.5 SPK4 ORG, my server is on it's own site and runs it's own SMTP connector, it holds several MX records that all work. In reference to the following article, I have a problem where I want all the postmaster error messages to be generated from the server I administer. http://support.microsoft.com/directory/article.asp?ID=KB;EN-US;Q182010 I also stopped and restarted all services to ensure changes took effect. The problem is that the default reply to address is coming (and being sent) from the postmaster account of the main server in the ORG, not from my server in this SITE. If you were to reply to me [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note the missing t), then you should get the Unknown Recipient message from the [EMAIL PROTECTED] but you don't, it comes from the postmaster@. the ORG's first (main) server. If we both run our own SMTP connections, our MX records are correct, then why is this and how can I stop it from happening. I thought from the article up top I could fix it but apparently not. What am I missing here? Thanks in advance, probably a simple fix, once I actually find it... _ 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]
Re: Default Sys Admin on SMTP
And you've done the reg modification? I know this works as I've done it several times (actually I think I may have written that article, cant' remember for sure). - Original Message - From: Finch Brett [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 16, 2002 6:37 PM Subject: Default Sys Admin on SMTP We are a Exchange 5.5 SPK4 ORG, my server is on it's own site and runs it's own SMTP connector, it holds several MX records that all work.

RE: Default Sys Admin on SMTP
Yes I did do the reg hack as it stated, I thought it was an unusual one. System Administrator's SMTP Addr (REG_SZ) which I thought was a little off, maybe a typo within the article? I just stopped ALL exchange services and restarted, didn't reboot. I thought maybe System Administrator's SMTP Address vice what the article states but I decided to check here first before I start any variation experiments in my registry :) -Original Message- From: Daniel Chenault [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 16, 2002 22:18 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Default Sys Admin on SMTP And you've done the reg modification?
