Hope this helps. This is what Microsoft said that error meant. There is no route for the given address space, for example, an SMTP connector is configured, but this address does not match.
DNS returned an authoritative host that was not found for the domain. The routing group does not have a connector defined; mail from one server in one routing group does not have a route to another routing group. An SMTP Protocol error occurred. -----Original Message----- From: Kevan Dickinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 2:03 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Forwarded Mail to POP3 A/C Bouncing - Getting desperate I have posted this before but I am still having big problems. We have Exchange 5.5 sp4 installed on NT4SBS When I attempt to send mail via our Exchange Server to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" my mail is bounced and the return message looks like it comes from Mail Delivery Subsystem [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] The bounce message is as follows he original message was received at Fri, 8 Feb 2002 16:28:25 GMT from esweeper.th.hiway.co.uk [195.12.4.201] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (reason: 554 5.0.0 rewrite: excessive recursion (max 50), ruleset 3) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to pop3.hiway.co.uk.: >>> MAIL From:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE=1016 RET=FULL <<< 554 5.0.0 rewrite: excessive recursion (max 50), ruleset 3 554 5.0.0 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Service unavailable When I use a laptop and dial out to an ISP and send to the same user they get the message. They even get the message if from the outside a/c I send the mail to their office address and it is delivered to them as an alternative recipient (Under delivery options) It only looks like only mail that we try to send internally to these users but is being forwarded out to them is not going. I am really baffled I have coppied the headers from the returned email below. If anyone can decipher them and tell me whets going wrong I would be very grateful.
