Exchange 5.5 size-constraint-violation

Hi to all.

We have a strange problem with our exchange system (5.5 SP4).
In our site we have 4 mailboxservers (3500 users) and one bridgehead server.

Since the rollout from Office 2003/Outlook 2003 we got ndr's with id 290.
In the logs i see the following event:
"A non delivery roport (reason code transfer-failure and diagnostic code
size-constraint-violation) is being generated ... and was redirected ..."

No one get's the ndr and the mail is lost.
If the sender send's the mail a 2nd or 3 rd time the mail arrives.

If i move the sender and the recipient to the same exchange server the
problem is solved.


Thanks for any hint.


Kind regards

Manuel Körner
