Subject: [Vantage] [OT] Strange email error message

An OT for the email experts.....
I sent a message to someone and got an error message back that I have
never seen before:
--------------------------------------------
A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce
between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients. Contact
your administrator.
--------------------------------------------
Only one recipient had the error out of 6 in a distribution list and
several others were in the same "domain" (comcast.net) as this one.

Any idea if this problem is at my end or the recipient's end? Anything
I can do about it?
I hate it when it says to "contact [my] administrator" because he is so
clueless and has to go ask a yahoogroup all the time.

Thanks,
Todd Caughey

Todd,

I looked up "caused the message to bounce between two servers" and
found a bunch of hits.

This one might be the best: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=841834

Hopefully this helps you

looks to be at this end. BUT...we have only one Ex2000 server and no
Ex5.5 server at all. Plus there is no way an address at comcast.net
is going to get confused with harveyvogel.com and bounce around.
Also, I forwarded the failed message singly to the person it failed
on and it worked this time. Soon enough I will be using the
distribution list again so I will see if it is specifically related
to a DL in my Outlook Contacts. Very strange though. On the bright
side issues like this help make me less clueless.
