SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to send a message to a foreign system through the Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400, an Error 58 message may be displayed and the connection may end unexpectedly. When this occurs, the Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 repeatedly attempts to send the message again. Each time, the error message is displayed, and the connection ends unexpectedly. However, the original message and all subsequent messages are successfully sent to the foreign system. Note that this problem is known to occur with ISODE/OpenPath systems.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when the foreign system sends a "please token" session protocol data unit (SPDU) in a different transport protocol data unit (TPDU) than the "activity end" SPDU. The Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 does not properly handle this type of communication.
