  • 1.  One distribution group - won't receive mail externally

    Posted Feb 06, 2013 04:55 PM

    We have one distribution group out of 900ish that will not receive mail externally.

    In SMG it gets Drop invalid recipients, All recipients are invalid.

    Every user in the distribution group is valid, it does not make it to our EX2010 servers. The email address has a & in the middle of it, if I create an alias in the distribution group (converting the & to and) and email it comes through fine.

    Does SMG have issues with certain ascii characters? Has anyone expierenced this beforw?

    Just what I was looking for as we just upgraded to 10.0.1 last week... It has been almost 3 months since that article was wrote, has anything further came of it? I would think something like that would be acted upon faster.
