RE: Strange Outbound Messages (Postmaster)
RFC821 then it must construct an undeliverable mail notification message and send it to the originator of the undeliverable mail (as indicated by the reverse-path). This would seem to indicate relaying? However, I have my system setup to NOT relay. I've even tested (per the faq)? According to the telnet test I'm good-to-go?

RE: Strange Outbound Messages (Postmaster)
Sorry Mr. Joyce, I don't agree. Commercial email (unsolicited or not) is coming into his domain, but he is not relaying. Instead, the spammers are sending to invalid addresses within his domain and using invalid (or unresolvable) return addresses. So: 1) Spam comes in. 2) Exchange tries to bounce an NDR back to the return address. 3) The attempt fails after repeated attempts. 4) Exchange generates the message showing that the NDR could not be delivered to the return address in the message. Of course, you could try to contact the senders, but why would they care? Best thing to do is ignore the messages or blackhole the senders. -- be - MOS Earth Army Recruiting Center: What are you, chicken?

Good point Mr. East. I beleive you are correct there. Regards Mr Louis Joyce Computer Support Analyst Network Administrator BT Ignite eSolutions -Original Message- From: East, Bill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 16 November 2001 16:04 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Strange Outbound Messages (Postmaster) Sorry Mr. Joyce, I don't agree. Commercial email (unsolicited or not) is coming into his domain, but he is not relaying. Instead, the spammers are sending to invalid addresses within his domain and using invalid (or unresolvable) return addresses. So: 1) Spam comes in. 2) Exchange tries to bounce an NDR back to the return address. 3) The attempt fails after repeated attempts. 4) Exchange generates the message showing that the NDR could not be delivered to the return address in the message. Of course, you could try to contact the senders, but why would they care? Best thing to do is ignore the messages or blackhole the senders. -- be - MOS Earth Army Recruiting Center: What are you, chicken?

RE: Strange Problem
I find it hard to believe that your Outlook session corrupted the MTA. Outlook doesn't touch the MTA.

It resulted in a corrupt MTA and prevented me receiving email. I created another mailbox for myself and copied all my data over from the old one. That seemed to fix the problem as far as sending and receiving went, although I still had a number of event records expressing MTA errors. The error included my x400 address with a little squiggle at the end that looked like a 'double s' - one on top of the other. Also, because I created a new mailbox with a different name (and then renamed it) the 'directory' element stayed as the temporary name. I discovered throughout the day yesterday, that infact, any mail I sent didn't get delivered (external - internal OK). First thing this morning, I restored the mtadata folder from Monday night backup hoping this would solve the problem. Although it restored successfully, today I can't send email at all - it just sits in my outbox and nothing will shift it. Any ideas - it's freaking me out !!

After the install when I go to Start-Programs there is no Exchange System tools there. What could be the problem there? I'm logging in as Administrator of the local server. Am I missing a step?
