Yes, the same max values are fine. The easiest way to reset the counter is to move all the mailboxes in a given store to another store. Drop the old store. I'm personally of the opinion, although no one admits it, that there was a bug in Exchange 2003 prior to sp2 that caused the values to

I assume your DNS is authoritative for the IP range or address? (note, this is not the same as being authoritative for the domain). If not, I believe whoever "owns" the IP address will have to host the PTR record. -Original Message- From: JB [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June

Your ISP will be definitive, most likely, for your public IP addresses. Call your circuit provider and ask them to put up a PTR record. If they can't/won't, you can then ask them who should/will On Mon, Jun 9, 2008 at 11:52 AM, JB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Don- > Thanks for the quick response.
