SYMPTOMS
When you send a message addressed to a large number of recipients from
Microsoft Exchange Server to Lotus cc:Mail, you may receive a
non-delivery report (NDR) from the cc:Mail Connector. This NDR contains the
following string:
Header Buffer Full.
CAUSE
Lotus cc:Mail imposes a 4-KB header limit on messages. Because of this
limitation, any messages passed to cc:Mail with more than 4 KB in the
header will be returned to the sender in the form of an NDR. The string
"Header Buffer Full" may also be repeated for each additional recipient
that goes beyond the 4-KB header limit. This header limit is a set
limitation of cc:Mail and cannot be changed with the Microsoft Exchange
Connector for Lotus cc:Mail.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:
- Re-send the mail to fewer recipients.
MORE INFORMATION
cc:Mail is manufactured by Lotus, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we
