XADM: MAPI Messages Stack Up in Send Queue to the Host Specified in Forward Unresolved Recipients


View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

When you specify a third-party Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server or Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 in Forward all mail with unresolved recipients to host on the Messages tab of the SMTP Virtual Server properties, MAPI messages sent to unresolved recipients stack up in the send queue of the SMTP connector to the server.

Cause

This behavior is caused by Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. When a MAPI message is sent to unresolved recipients, Exchange 2000 sends binary blob in the SMTP DATA command. The other SMTP server cannot finish receiving the message, and the message stays in the send queue.
