XADM: Store Rejects X.400 Address with Embedded Slashes (177152)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 SP1

This article was previously published under Q177152

SYMPTOMS

X.400 addresses that contain embedded slashes within a value for an X.400 address are rejected by the Microsoft Exchange information store as an "invalid postal address" when submitted as a one-off address from a client or when generated using the X.400 address template on a client. However, the same X.400 address can be replied to successfully when received from an outside originator or when created as a custom recipient on the Exchange Server computer.

CAUSE

This is caused by a problem in the parsing code.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0.
