Yeah, I understand a timeout when the destination domain has MX records but the remote server is not answering because it may be temporarily down. But when the remote domain does not even exist in DNS that should be a different story.

I am looking for someone who is smarter than me :) to explain to me why Exchange 2000 is keeping messages in the retry queues if there are no DNS records for the messages' destination domains? For example if I send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I can see a retry queue for boguscrapdoesnotexist.com, and it is marked "unable to bind to the destination server in DNS" Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
