How To Generate a Value for PR_MTS_ID (183920)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Development Kit (EDK) 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q183920 SUMMARY
Occasionally, Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 rejects some inbound gateway
mail messages because the foreign gateway relied upon the Exchange Server
to supply a value for PR_MTS_ID. In particular, messages that have been
addressed to recipients homed on an Exchange server in the same site, other
than the gateway server, will be rejected.
The cause of this behavior is the value for PR_MTS_ID supplied by Exchange
Server. At times, that value may be rejected as invalid, resulting in
NonDelivery of inbound foreign mail messages.
To avoid this issue, gateway programs should generate a value for PR_MTS_ID
and place it on the Message Transfer Envelope of the inbound message. The
code sample in the MORE INFORMATION section demonstrates the correct method
to accomplish this task.
