XADM: Message Limits Incorrectly Calculated After 5.0 Upgrade (151972)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
This article was previously published under Q151972 SYMPTOMS
After a Microsoft Exchange Server computer running Service Pack 3 or 4 has
been upgraded to Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0, if you had incoming and/or
outgoing message size limits on your mailbox, you may receive non-delivery
reports (NDRs) when you try to send mail. This will occur although the
message being sent is well under the specified limit on the mailbox. The
NDR will look similar to the following:
Your message did not reach some of the intended recipients....
Either the message size exceeds the maximum allowed for the recipient or
the transport, or you have exceeded the storage limit on your mailbox.
CAUSE
The information store is incorrectly calculating the message limits, this
error causes the limit to be a negative number, resulting in the failure
and NDR.
WORKAROUND
Turn off message limits on the mailbox.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 5.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange 5.0 Server U.S.
Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the
