SYMPTOMS
When you send an e-mail message to a recipient who has set an Out of Office AutoReply message, you may receive a non-delivery report (NDR) message similar to the following:

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

Subject: Test

Sent: AM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

on AM

This message is larger than the current system limit or the recipient's mailbox is full. Create a shorter message body or remove attachments and try sending it again.





CAUSE
This problem may occur if the recipient mailbox has the Prohibit send at (KB) storage limit set, and the mailbox size has reached that limit.

The recipient receives the message, but Exchange 2000 incorrectly sends an NDR.
