XADM: Server Delegate Rule Is Disabled by External E-Mail Message

Article ID: 256294

Article Last Modified on 10/26/2006



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q256294


SYMPTOMS

Delegate rules may be disabled when those rules act on e-mail messages sent through a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) port.

CAUSE

Because a delegate rule works with Exchange Server addresses, the information store disables the rule when it encounters an error if the e-mail message is sent from non-Exchange Server address. After the rule is disabled, the rule does not start, even if the e-mail message is sent from Microsoft Outlook.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
