SYMPTOMS
When you use the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program to create an SMTP proxy for a Microsoft Exchange Site using substitution characters separated by a '.', if one of the represented fields is null, Inproxy.dll will generate an invalid SMTP address. This address works correctly and produces no error messages or warnings but it does not conform to the RFC.
