XFOR: Lowercase Address Types in Dir-Sync with Exchange (157712)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q157712 SUMMARY
The address type parameter (that is, SMTP, PCM, SNADS, and so forth) in a
directory synchronization (dir-sync) transaction is not case sensitive, by
definition.
A Microsoft Mail postoffice sends all its transaction address types in
uppercase.
Microsoft Exchange Server sends all its transaction address types in
lowercase.
Both Microsoft Mail and Microsoft Exchange Server read these transactions
without sensitivity to case. Some third-party dir-sync requesters are
sensitive to the case of the address type parameter and incorrectly expect
it to be uppercase.
