SYMPTOMS
Messages sent to a mail-enabled Windows 2000 contact for Lotus Notes may start to loop, and the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes does not detect it.



CAUSE
The current design of the transport does not generate the appropriate trace information for the expansion of the distribution list, or for the redirection of messages. All messages are assumed to be non-looping by the Message Transfer Agent (MTA).



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, place the AllowUnresolvedAddresses=No parameter in the [LME-GWISE-MEXIN] or [LME-NOTES-MEXIN] section, or place the AllowUnresolvedAddresses parameter in the registry of the Notes Connector, and use an asterisk (*) for the address space. A non-delivery report (NDR) should then be generated.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server.
