Hi, The server ewn-lges008.<domain> is ours. It is the exchange box. But the message wall server isnt ours ( I think!!). What is a message wall server cos I was under the impression that it was probably the receiving server running its mailer...ie..the destination server rejecting my mails...
N.b thx for explaining the LF. Hope we resolve this soon enough -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2005 4:55 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Urgent!!: exchange 2000 So this server was trying to talk to a message wall server? ewn-lges008.econet-nigeria.com Is this one of your servers? Is the message wall server yours? A bare LF is considered a special control character, but you need to find out where that's getting generated and if the message wall server is properly checking for it. If it's in the quoted text, it's valid, if not, then it's not. <x> ::= any one of the 128 ASCII characters (no exceptions) <special> ::= "<" | ">" | "(" | ")" | "[" | "]" | "\" | "." | "," | ";" | ":" | "@" """ | the control characters (ASCII codes 0 through 31 inclusive and 127) Let us know where it's getting generated from and we can hopefully help you out. If you own that server, then it may just be a format change (go to plain text vs. ?) or it could be the message wall server that needs adjusting.

I have actually looked at the webpage and it mentioned something about bare LFs and the message being generated by qmail(an internet message transfer agent)..it put fixes for mailers like eudora,sendmail.but none for exchange...i just need to know what I have to do to fix this!! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jack Eales Sent: Monday, January 17, 2005 9:29 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Urgent!!: exchange 2000 Have you looked at http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html it might give you some pointers as to what is wrong..... Do you have another SMTP server front of your Exchange server i.e between it and the internet? If so, does the above page help? Just a thought....
