SYMPTOMS
When you sent a message a Microsoft Exchange account that has a Maximum
Incoming Message Size limit and the message exceeds this limit, you will
receive Non-Delivery Report (NDR) similar to the following:
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients:
Subject: test
Sent: 7/16/96 2:23:23 PM
The following recipient(s) could not be reached:
Curley on 7/16/96 2:23:23 PM
Either the size of this message exceeds your maximum allowed message
size or you have exceeded the storage limit on your mailbox.
[MSEXCH:MSExchangeIS:MARVEL:XMEN]"
MORE INFORMATION
Notice that the NDR seems to imply that the sender has exceeded a quota or
message size limit although the sender does not have any restrictions and
the restrictions are on the intended recipient.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
