Details

Exchange Server 5.5 connecting using IMAP for retrieval, LDAP for directory and SMTP for transmission. User names in LDAP are Last, First. ie "Last, First" <First.Last@mydomain.com> The Exchange server sends an unknown recipient reply to the sender but still sends the correct message recipient! The error message to sender is as follows To: Last; First Subject: test Sent: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 08:50:32 +1000 did not reach the following recipient(s): Last on Fri, 24 Aug 2001 08:53:46 +1000 The recipient name is not recognized The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=us;a= ;p=nrg;l=GPSMAIL0108232253N1Z15HY5 MSEXCH:IMS:NRG:GPS:GPSMAIL 0 (000C05A6) Unknown Recipient Note that the , (comma) is replaced with a ; (semicolon)in the To field. Netscape 4.7x does not show this characteristic and names that do not have the comma work fine.
What build id are you using? In a new message/compose window how is the recipient's email address chosen? Do you select the Address button and choose the email address or in the address area do you take advantage of the autocomplete feature where you start typing and it automatically displays addresses that match what you have typed?
Summary: Errors when sending to MS Exchange Server using LDAP → Errors when sending to MS Exchange Server using LDAP
I'm using 0.92 & 0.93, both have the same problem. It started doing it after several days of use on 0.92 so I upgraded to 0.93 to see if that fixed it. I also deleted my .mozilla directory to see if that fixed it (Didn't). I know that it sounds like an intermittent problem but it does it every time now. Does Mozilla store mail information in another location? After deleting ~/.mozilla a lot of mail settings were still remembered. I use the fabulous autocomplete feature which pulls the addresses from the Exchange LDAP server. The names with Last, First seem to be the ones that Exchange barfs on. I just tried the Address window to get it. It doesn't show the LDAP directory as an option at all? Is there any debug mode in Moz that shows the SMTP traffic with the Exchange server. I have a little experience with sendmail and SMTP protocol. I suppose I could sniff the network if necessary.
