SYMPTOMS
When you send a message using an Outlook client, in the case of the Defense Messaging System (DMS) version of Exchange, clients sending messages by virtue of DMS client extensions have an option for setting latest delivery. This option is not available with the existing standard product clients, because it requires the extensions for the related property pages. With this option, messages can be sent with delivery options set with the "At any time" but "No later than" condition. When the time for delivery expires, the expected behavior is a non-delivery report (NDR) from the remote message transfer agent (MTA) with "Delivery Time Expired" as the diagnostic code. However, the message is delivered even after the delivery time has expired.
CAUSE
The cause is that the latest delivery time is not being implemented, either for local delivery or for giving to the MTA.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0.
This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
