SUMMARY

When you use Microsoft Exchange Windows clients to address a message to a hidden recipient, the Check Names tool will not resolve the name.

MORE INFORMATION

The same behavior will occur when you try to send a message. The Microsoft Exchange Client will return the Check Names dialog box indicating Microsoft Exchange does not recognize the recipient's name. It will prompt you to create a new address or pick another user.

You can send mail to the hidden recipient by either using the hidden recipient's X.400 address to create a custom recipient or placing the hidden recipient's Microsoft Exchange address in the Personal Address Book before hiding the recipient.
