I'd agree with you on that - a failure to resolve any domain information should probably generate a 554 error and terminate trying. -- Roger D.

RE: SMTP retry queues
That's what I am thinking... it's like giving me a grace period to fix my DNS servers :) But it is a real pain when one gets spammed and then there are a lot of messages sitting in the queues for 2 days targeting bogus domains. -Original Message- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 9:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: SMTP retry queues Exchange is hoping that the DNS server is just down..
