Ipswitch is now telling me that the behavior I've seen (delivery failure
messages for unknown user/host being placed in the queue rather than
delivered immediately) is not how it is designed to work. So far, no
clear reason why it has happend on both of our test systems.
Has anyone else seen this behavior in 6.03?
Thanks,
Brian
