SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. A Microsoft Outlook user in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 organization sends an e-mail message to a distribution list. The display name of the distribution list contains DBCS characters. The distribution list includes a Lotus Notes user. But, the distribution list does not have a Lotus Notes proxy address in Active Directory. Then, the Lotus Notes user replies to the e-mail message that was sent by the Outlook user. In this scenario, the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes service stops on the server that is running Exchange Server 2003.
CAUSE
This problem occurs if the heap memory is corrupted.
Note The heap memory is a block of memory that the operating system reserves for a program to store its data.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
MORE INFORMATION
If a distribution list does not have a Lotus Notes proxy address in Active Directory, the Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes creates a temporary proxy address when you send an e-mail message to this distribution list. This temporary proxy address resembles the following address:
Display_Name@LegacyDN@Exchange_Server_Name@Domain_Name
When the Lotus Notes user replies to the e-mail message, the Exchange_Server_Name address is not resolved. And, a non-delivery report is generated. At the same time, the heap memory is corrupted.
