I have a strange situation.  
I have one user sending Internet mail to one specific email address that
bounces with this error message:
"Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: smtp;553 Requested action not taken: mailbox name not
allowed"

All other users can send to that email address OK, and the user in question
has no problems sending to other outside email addresses.

This is an Exchange 5.5 sp4 /Outlook 2000 install.  

I have already tried the following:
1)  Log into Outlook as the user on another PC and send mail - bounces with
same error.
2)  Telnet directly to the recipient's mail server and send mail as this
user - this works.
3)  Send mail from me to the recipient -  this goes through without a
problem.

I have not been able to find a "good" explanation of this particular SMTP
error message.

Any suggestions?

Jim
