If they aren't using the Exchange server service, they're taking another
path...

Should that matter? The interesting thing is that most of these mails to get
delivered and occasionally they miss.
If there is some problem with configuring services etc. it should be
affecting every mail?

Are you certain that these users don't have another service (in addition to
the Exchange server service) defined in their Outlook client?

No traces of such missed mails are found in mtatrack.log. Looks like, this
server is just dropping them before they reach MTA? Or, MTA is
malfunctioning? Yes, both server A and B are in the same LAN, on different
subnets.

We mostly hear that the complaints for a specific domain. But, we
are not 100% sure that this is not the case with other domains ( at least,
we have not got any complaints so far).

Only few modifications which we have done to the network recently
are a) upgrading exch to SP4 and upgrading GroupShield 4.5 SP1. b) We have
installed server C and configured IMS only for inbound.

Just to isolate if C is the problem, we have shutdown IMS on this
server for few days. But, we were getting the same complaints even when IMS
on C was off.

What does message tracking say happened to the messages?  Are they showing
up as having been transfered to the second server?

Hi,
  We are having a typical problem for which I am not able to get a solution.
We have two exchange servers ( 5.5 SP4) in our exchange site. One of these
servers having IMS configured for both in bound and outbound (Server A ).
The other server ( Server B) doesn't have IMS and automatically gives the
mails to IMS running on server A, which in turn sends mails to external
world.

There are about 100+ mailboxes on Server B. Some of the users having
mailboxes on this server have been complaining that some of the mails are
not reaching external world and they get dropped out somewhere. We have MTA
tracking enabled on this server. When I test this by sending few test mails
they go out properly, but, occasionally these mails don't even reach Server
A. For these missed mails, MTA doesn't have any info whether it has routed
to Server A or couldn't process them etc.

Pls help me if there is anything that I can check to find where
these mails are going...

thanks in adv,
-Masthan.
