XCON: Address Space Not Updated When You Recalculate GWART


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5


SYMPTOMS

If you modify an entry on the Address Space tab in the properties for a Microsoft Exchange Server connector so that the address is not specific enough, recalculate the gateway address routing table (GWART), and then modify the entry again so that the address is more specific, the address space may not be updated when you recalculate the GWART again. As a result, when you send a message through the connector, you receive a non-delivery report (NDR) that contains the following text:

   The recipient name is not recognized. 


RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For more information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Q191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the Latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack

   X400om.dll     5.5.2410.0
   X400omv1.dll   5.5.2410.0 


WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, run the Exchange Server Administrator program in raw mode, and then in the properties for the Site Addressing object, manually remove the old address from the Site-Proxy-Space object attribute. After you remove the address, recalculate the GWART again.
