-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
Certain Lotus Notes clients surround SMTP recipient names with angle brackets
(< and >) before the messages are sent to the Notes Mail Router.
When these recipient names are sent through the Exchange Notes Connector, a
non-delivery report (NDR) is generated by the Exchange Notes Connector to the
Notes originator.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior occurs because the Exchange Notes Connector interprets the angle
brackets as part of the recipient address, rather than interpreting them as
delimiters.
RESOLUTION
==========
This problem can be resolved by using a different Notes client.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Steps to Reproduce the Problem
------------------------------
1. Configure an Exchange Server computer with Internet Mail Service and a Notes
Connector.
2. Using a Notes client that is known to do this, send a message to a user in
the form:
username@domainname.com@EXCHANGE
The NDR is generated for <username@domainname.com>@EXCHANGE.
Known clients that do exhibit this behavior: Notes 5.0a client
Known clients that do not exhibit this behavior are: Notes 5.0.1a client.
