Hello Acon,
Thank you for posting in the SBS newsgroup.
According to your description, I understand that you received a NDR when
you are sending mail to a specific domain. If I have misunderstood your
concern, please don't hesitate to let me know.
To narrow down this issue, please answer and perform the following
questions and steps:
1. Since this issue occurs if a looping condition was detected, and this
issue only occurs on the specific domain, please also contact the specific
domain administrator to check the relevant configuration of the Exchange
Server.
2. If you forward all mail through smarthost, please try to use DNS to
route the outgoing email, and then try again. Please check if the issue can
be re-produced.
3. As you mentioned, you already have "smtp * 1" in the address space
tab. If there is other items in the Address Space tab of the SmallBusiness
SMTP connector Properties, please delete it , and then check if the issue
can be re-produced.
4. If there are other third-party software on the SBS Server, please
temporarily uninstall it, and then try again.
5. Based on my research, this issue may occurs if the SBS Server is
configured to forward mail either to itself or another server that may be
configured to forward it's unresolved recipients to this server, on the
"Forward all mail with unresolved recipients to host" option of the Default
SMTP Virtual Server properties.
6. If the DNS server has two same records, the problem may occur due the
message will be sent to two targets at the same time and the loop will
occur.
7. Please refer to the below steps to enable SMTP logging:
1) Open the properties page of the Default SMTP Virtual Server in
Exchange System Manager.
2) On the General tab, check the "Enable logging" box.
3) Click Properties, click the Extended Properties tab and check all
the boxes on the list.
4) Click OK twice.
5) Stop and restart the SMTP virtual server.
6) Reproduce the issue.
7) Stop the SMTP virtual server.
8) Go to the C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\SMTPSVC1 folder and check
the latest two (if there are many) log files.
I am appreciated your time and cooperation. If anything is unclear, please
feel free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Nathan Liu (MSFT)
