This article was previously published under Q115495



SYMPTOMS
Version 3.0 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP sometimes encounters this error when it tries to put incoming mail into an MS Mail postoffice:

spawning SMTPPUT

ERROR SMTPPUT

[tx] 552 Error in local delivery



CAUSE
The process that puts incoming SMTP messages into the MS Mail postoffice-- SMTPPUT--was unable to complete. The Gateway PC won't take responsibility for the incoming message.



RESOLUTION
To resolve a problem with SMTPPUT, check the files involved with putting mail into an MS Mail database. Check these files and directories to ensure that none have inappropriate attributes or are hidden, ownerless, locked open, or corrupt:


 * The GLB and all .GLB files
 * All directories under MAI and ATT
 * The P1 directory and all files beneath it

NOTE: Use ATTRIB to check for hidden files. Under Novell NetWare, use the NDIR command to check for ownerless files.

Additional query words: 3.00 ERRMSG SMTPPUT
