I went through every setting in the Exchange system manager 8 times
and somehow overlooked the muawadpc.com domain listed in the recipient
policy list. Thanks for the tip.

Regarding the cross posting, I simply wanted to keep you and everyone
else up to speed on my progress and express my appreciation for your
time. I then posted in "microsoft.public.exchange2000.admin" because
it was a more appropriate newsgroup for my particular issue. I was
also hoping to have this resolved by Monday and
"microsoft.public.exchange2000.admin" seemed much more active. Your
response was the first response I received since my first posting on
3/27.

I will heed your advice on cross posting though and I do appreciate
your advice.
