SYMPTOMS
When you sent a message a Microsoft Exchange account that has a Maximum Incoming Message Size limit and the message exceeds this limit, you will receive Non-Delivery Report (NDR) similar to the following:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients:

Subject: test

Sent: 7/16/96 2:23:23 PM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

Curley on 7/16/96 2:23:23 PM

Either the size of this message exceeds your maximum allowed message size or you have exceeded the storage limit on your mailbox.

[MSEXCH:MSExchangeIS:MARVEL:XMEN]"



MORE INFORMATION
Notice that the NDR seems to imply that the sender has exceeded a quota or message size limit although the sender does not have any restrictions and the restrictions are on the intended recipient.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
