SYMPTOMS
========
If you send a message to an Outlook contact or personal Address Book entry that
contains an encapsulated RFC-822 address.
For example:
C=us;a= ;p=microsoft;o=msft;s=user;DDA:RFC-822=user(a)domain.com
you may find that the message tracking logs in the Microsoft Exchange Server
Administrator program incorrectly show the (a) translated to (040)a(041). As a
result, the above address appears as follows:
C=us;a= ;p=microsoft;o=msft;s=user;DDA:RFC-822=user(040)a(041)domain.com
CAUSE
=====
The Exchange Server message transfer agent (MTA) is incorrectly translating the
parentheses (), which are then written to the tracking log.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5.
