XCON: MTA Mishandles Use of Default Dialogue-mode (140958)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q140958 SYMPTOMS
Microsoft Exchange Server is unable to communicate with a remote Message
Transfer Agent (MTA) over an X.400 connector. In some cases you might be
able to send to the foreign MTA, but it cannot receive messages. This is
the case with the MEMO MTA.
MORE INFORMATION
The problem only happens when the remote MTA does not explicitly send the
dialogue mode in the SPDU Connect packet. This fact can be verified by
tracing the beginning of the X.400 connection.
One workaround is to configure both MTAs to the "two way alternate"
dialogue mode.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
U.S. Service Pack 2. For information on obtaining the service pack, query
