How to disable x400 and send using smtp
Hi -
I'm trying to get (what I thought was) as very simple new Exchange installation going. I'm testing using OWA, but whenever I attempt to send a message, an Event ID 290 is thrown, which indicates that it is trying to use x400 to send the message. This is quite strange to me, since in the Active Directory definition of the sending user, there is only an smtp email address (it did originally contain an x400 address, but I've since removed it). The smtp service is running on the exchange server. Can some wise, kind soul instruct me how to get Exchange to send using smtp instead of attempting to use x400? Many thanks! |

How to disable x400 and send using smtp
Add the x400 back as it is required for Exchange/Outlook.

How to disable x400 and send using smtp
OK, I'll put it back, but that doesn't solve the original issue at all -
anytime I try to send an EvenID 290 is thrown. That's the root cause - ideas?

How to disable x400 and send using smtp
I removed the x400 *AFTER* I saw the entry in the event log (290) stating
that there was an x400 error. I did put the x400 entry back since you wrote that its required, but I'm still baffled as to why the 290 error is being generated and the mail is not being sent, even though the connector in the routing group points to the default smtp server and the Address Space is SMTP with "*" for address. Does there need to be an x400 in the address space? I tried that too, using the same properties for Organization and Domain Name that I saw in the 290 message, but that didn't help. I don't pretend at all to be an Exchange expert - just the schmuck who has to have this thing working by Tuesday. Any ideas??? |

YOu are best off posting this in an Exchange news group as it has little if anything to do with Outlook. microsoft.public.exchange.clients would be a good place to start.

Are you still using Ex5.5 in the organization or upgraded from it?

How to disable x400 and send using smtp
I read the other posts, if you happen to go the route of posting in one of
the m.p.exchange.* groups, make sure you post the complete text of the x400 error in the event logs. W/out it, they are just going to say there isn't enough info. "CindyLu" wrote in message ...
