>> WORKAROUND

>> To work around this behavior, use either of the following methods.
>>
>> Method 1
>> --------
>> Configure the SMTP virtual server in Exchange to send mail with
unresolved

>>

>> expand "SMTP". Note If Exchange System Manager is configured to

>> Groups" before you expand "Servers". Then expand the administrative
>> group that contains the mail server.
>>
>> 3. Right-click the SMTP virtual server, and then click Properties.
>>
>> 4. Click the Messages tab, type the name or the IP address of the ISP's
>> mail server under "Forward all mail with unresolved recipients to
>> host", and then click "OK". The SMTP mail server that you specify
must
>> be the ISP mail server that receives messages for the POP3 accounts.
>> This may be different from the POP3 server that you connect to when
you
>> download messages from the ISP.
>>
>> 5. Right-click the SMTP virtual server, and then click "Stop".
>>
>> 6. Right-click the SMTP virtual server, and then click "Start". Note In
>> this case, any e-mail that local users send to recipients that do not
>> exist on your server will be forwarded to the ISP's mail server.
>>
>>
>> Method 2
>> --------
>> Configure the Default Policy in the Exchange recipient policy to use
the
>> local e-mail domain as the primary address, and then add an additional
>> recipient policy to apply the POP3 e-mail domain to the local user
>> accounts. This way, the e-mail domain for the local users will match
the
>> e-mail domain that the POP3 mail server is hosting, but Exchange will
not
>> be the responsible mail server for this e-mail domain.
>>
>> Be aware that the user accounts must be configured to be updated by
>> recipient policies. This option is available under the properties for
each
>> user on the Email-Addresses tab.
>>
>> To configure the recipient policies in Exchange, follow these steps:
>>
>> 1. Click "Start", point to "Programs" or to "All Programs", point to
>> "Microsoft Exchange", and then click "System Manager".
>>
>> 2. Expand Recipients, and then click Recipient Policies in the left
pane.
>> In the right pane, the "Default Policy" is listed.
>>
>> 3. Double-click Default Policy, and then click the E-Mail Addresses tab.
>>
>> 4. By default, an SMTP e-mail address that matches your internal domain
>> name appears in the list of addresses. For example, if your internal
domain
>> name is mycompany.local, the address "@mycompany.local" will appear in
the
>> list. If the internal domain address is not listed, follow these steps
to
>> add it:
>> a. Click "New".
>> b. Click to select "SMTP Address", and then click "OK".
>> c. In the "Address" box, type the internal domain address, and then
click
>> "OK". For example, type " @mycompany.local" (without the quotation
marks).
>>
>> 5. Click to select the internal domain address, and then click "Set as
>> Primary".
>>
>> 6. Click to select the POP3 domain address, and then click "Edit".
>>
>> 7. Clear the box that says "This Exchange Organization is responsible
for
>> all mail delivery to this address", and then click "OK".
>>
>> 8. Click OK to apply the changes.
>>
>> 9. Click "Yes" or "OK" two times to update all corresponding recipient
>> e-mail addresses.
>>
>> 10. Right-click Recipient Policies in the left pane, point to New, and
then
>> click Recipient Policy. Note If you have Exchange Server 2000
>> Service Pack 1 (SP1) or later, a dialog box appears that prompts you
to
>> select the type of recipient policy that you want to create. In this
>> case, click to select the E-Mail Addresses check box, and then click
OK.
>>
>> 11. Type a name for the recipient policy, and then click Modify.
>>
>> 12. In the Find Exchange Recipients dialog box, click to select "Users
with
>> Exchange mailbox", and clear all the other check boxes.
>>
>> 13. Click OK, and then click OK on the warning message that you receive.
>>
>> 14. Click the E-Mail Addresses tab.
>>
>> 15. Click to select the POP3 domain address, and then click "Set as
>> Primary".
>>
>> 16. Click OK to apply the changes.
>>
>> 17. Click "Yes" or "OK " two times to update all corresponding recipient
>> e-mail addresses.
>>
>> Note Every time that you run the Internet Connection Wizard or the
>> Configure E-mail and Internet Connection Wizard and set it to modify the
>> Exchange settings, the wizard will set the e-mail domain address that
you
>> enter in the wizard as the primary address on each recipient policy.
After
>> the wizard is completed, you must repeat the steps that are mentioned in
>> this article to modify the recipient policy.
>>
>> To get additional detailed information, you may refer to the RESOLUTION
