Thank you for all of the suggestions. I think I am getting close to the
issue. I think it may be related to Symantec Mail Security 4.0.1 for

Exchange 5.5/4 Win2000/4
Potentially silly question. (Technical, non-ethical, sorry)
If I send an e-mail to external domain and it sits in my outbound IMS
queue and can't get delivered because of a restriction on the receiving
domain's e-mail server, my NDR should have header info in right?
I ran forest prep and it created domain servers, enterprise servers and
services in the forest root. I then ran domain prep in a second level domain
but only domain servers and enterprise servers got created. No Exchange
services group. I reran domain prep and it reports completing successfully
It also works in reverse:
1) spammer sends messages to users in your org from
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which doesn't exist.
2) many many many recipients in your domain do not exist.
3) Your mail system spends the next three days trying to send the NDR bounce
to the perceived sender [EMAIL PROTECTED]
4)

You should be OK, as long as your purchase records and paper license count

If it never leaves the IMS, I don't think it will. If there is a
restriction on the remote server, it shouldnt be sitting in the IMS
anyway, it should simply bounce back to the sender almost immediately after

If I understand the question correctly, your message won't have *his*

That is what I'm trying to tell this admin at Verizon.net. They recently

I think that depends on the response code that your server receives from
the target SMTP server. It could be misleading your server into thinking
that it can try again. I think I have seen something like this happen in
the past.
