SYMPTOMS
========
When you try to delete an X.400 connector, you may be unable to delete it and
you receive the following error message:
The "X.400 TCP /IP connector <connector_name> cannot be deleted because
it is the only connector providing the mail connectivity from the local site
to the replicated site <replicated_site_name>.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if an already existing Directory Replication connector
uses the X.400 connector to replicate both sites. This behavior functions as a
safety lock, and is designed to prevent accidental deletion of X.400 connectors
to the replicated sites.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, delete the Directory Replication connector, and then
delete the X.400 connector.
