Interesting Bill, I haven't experienced these problem during my eval. I'm evaling using GFI MailEssentials 8 in a gateway type setting which receives then relays mail to my e2k sp3 server. My relay machine is a .net server configured as a standalone. I've found no messages in my badmail folder and testing sending to distribution lists have proved successful.

The following has been copied from that research. Mail Essentials Problem: I am also having a problem with Mail Essentials. It's a little different. All email sent to distribution lists from Outlook2000 goes to badmail. Anything sent to a distribution list from Outlook Express or any other exchange client works fine. It is very strange. I contacted GFI, and they said this is a known issue. Have you tried to contact them about this problem? Good Luck! I'd be thankful for some help. Using Exchange Server 2000 sp3 and gfi mail essentials 8, I find that some (not all) incoming mail is not distributed but ends up in the badmail folder. The corresponding *.bdr files always read 'error is processing file in pickup directory', no other error code or number is visible. The mails in question do have valid 'from:' and 'to:' addresses. Since all I found on this topic is with regard to using cdonts and therefore (presumeably) not applicable in this case, this is beyond me. Since I am quite new to this whole business, please bear with me if I forgot to include necessary information and just let me know. I'll try to post everything that's needed. Thanks for helping!
