I have a user that is trying to send to the domain fronitier.net. On their end (fronitier.net )they have a postfix box accepting connections. Our server is Exchange 5.5 box W2k server. Our log files complains of the following:
******** The following message could not be delivered to <'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'>. The destination server reported: 501 Bad address syntax. See http://postmaster.frontiernet.net <http://postmaster.frontiernet.net/> From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: ******** Can someone shed some light on what exactly 501 bad address syntax is? I do realize MS doesn't like to follow the rules in reference to Exchange SMTP engines so with that in mind what is exactly breaking? On their website (fronitier.net ) comments as follows: * Improperly formatted recipient email addresses will be blocked. * Error message: 504 <address>: Recipient address rejected: need fully-qualified address * Error message: 501 Bad address syntax * Solution: Check the recipient (To:) email address.
