The timestamp of a non-delivery report is in Coordinated Universal Time instead of in local time when a user sends an e-mail message from Exchange Server 2003 to Lotus Domino

Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2), you configure Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Connector for Lotus Notes to connect to a Lotus Domino server. A user sends an e-mail message from Exchange Server 2003 to the Lotus Domino server. However, the recipient does not exist in the Lotus Domino server.

In this scenario, a non-delivery report (NDR) is delivered to the sender. However, the timestamp of the NDR message is in Coordinated Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time) instead of in local time.

To resolve this problem, install the latest version of the Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Connector for Lotus Notes. To obtain the latest version of the Lotus Notes Connector, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
