In Ex5.5, DL's DO have SMTP addys. -----Original Message----- From: Dupler, Craig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 2:09 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: DL Question
Perhaps this is a more interesting question than implied. There are two or maybe three (or maybe four) possibilities depending on where the DL is located, how many servers are involved and how many instances of single instance storage are involved. If it is a client DL, then I think that the "poof" answer is pretty close. MAPI will not let you send it. If it is an Exchange DL in the same enterprise as the sender, then MAPI will send it to Exchange Server, and MSX will error it out. But is the GUID record in the store created? I don't now for sure, but probably yes. When does it get deleted? I don't know anyone that knows, but maybe not at all. Allmo0st certainly it exists in the store, in the sender's view (i.e. mailbox), as both a Sent Mail and some sort of Inbox error message from the system attendant. If it is to a DL not in the local Exchange enterprise, then it certainly exists in the senders store. What happens on the other end will be a function of how the system on the other end works. I don't think (here the rust may show a bit) that Exchange DLs are addressable from an SMTP header record (to, cc or bcc field), but hey I might have missed this one. -----Original Message----- From: Morgan, Joshua [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 11:20 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: DL Question What happens to an E-mail that is sent to a DL that has no members?
