APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2, when used with:
    • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Standard Edition
    • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise Edition




SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2), you create two or more user accounts. The aliases for these user accounts contain a number sign (#). For example, you create the userA# account and the userB# account. Then, you create the Exchange mailboxes for these users. In this scenario, the LegacyExchangeDN attribute for each of these users may be the same. This behavior occurs if the following conditions are true:

  • The Recipient Update service is running on an Exchange Server 2003 SP2-based computer in a multiprocessor environment.
  • You create two or more Exchange mailboxes at the same time. For example, you select a group of users in Active Directory Users and Computers. You right-click Exchange Tasks and then click Create Mailbox.

Note Exchange Server 2003 disallows two or more users to have the same LegacyExchangeDN attribute. Therefore, e-mail messages that are sent to these mailboxes will not be delivered.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the CN attribute of the user account contains invalid LegacyDN characters. Therefore, Exchange Server 2003 appends a random number to the LegacyExchangeDN attribute to identify the user account. In a multiprocessor environment, the same random number may be used for different users. Therefore, the LegacyExchangeDN attribute for these user accounts may be the same.
