Re: Anyoone seen NDR generated where the Sender name is the failed

This particular setup has Microsoft (the Sybari version) Antigen 8 running
but the Anti-Spam is not active, as we do that at the gateway level. There
is also the Symantec AV client running on each server but with full Exchange
exclusions as defined in the MSKB article.

Hi Dave,
I seem to be experiencing the same issue. It is very intermittant. Just
wondering what Anti-Virus do you run on your exchange server and also do
you
run any anti-spam software on the exchange server?

TIA

Yes I thought of that and asked. They have told me that even selecting
from
the GAL fails and that it fails on a fresh build as well. There are at
least two people this is happening to and who send to various people. At
one point I thought it only happened when one of the recipients generated
an
NDR, but on some of the message traces there are no NDR's and yet still
the
sender gets an NDR message as below. I have diagnostic logging up to 5
and
still don't see any NDR event log entries that correspond to this so I
assume this may be a result of a coding oversight that is not handling
some
error condition correctly. I'd sure like to know though.

How are they resolving the name to which they're sending? If they go to
the GAL for name resolution, does it work then?

I have a really odd problem where someone will send an email via
Outlook
to another local user and will get an NDR returned from the Exchange
2003
server.

Message tracking shows the message was delivered but the NDR lists the
senders (ie their own) name and there is no time stamp as shown below

------------------------------
The following recipient(s) could not be reached:
<Sender Name> on
The recipient has been deleted or has no e-mail address.
------------------------------
It's happening to a number of individuals on infrequent occassions and
I
cannot find reference to this kind of issue anywhere in the MSKB.
Other
mails can be sent by the sender to the recipients without issue but
occassionally the above NDR results. The lack of any time/date stamp
suggests there is something not quite right at work, but I cannot
figure
out what and cannot recreate this myself using a test account. If
anyone
has any suggestions? I've checked the accounts and they seem to be
fine,
email addresses, account active etc.
