HI We are getting the following message when we send a mail. Read and delivery receipt is chekced and has to be checked. "This is a automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. Your message has been succesfully relayed yo the following recipients, but the requested delivery status norification may not be generated by the destination." We are running a SBS 2003 server with exchange Regards

Something that I see now is that it only happens with the delivery receipt.

There's not much you can do about it except to stop using that smart host and staet sending the e-mail directly to the target domains. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

HI Rich, thanks for replying. I am forwarding all outgoing mail to smtp.saix.net under the smtp connector. It always worked until last week. What do I need and what must I change to send it directly?

If ou don't then you can't do anything because they simply don't accept your request for a DSN. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

HI Rich, it has to be something on my exchange server. I have another e-mail address that also have delivery receipt enable and gives me the same error message and when we send mail it immediately sends relay error message back. How can I see the EHLO that the server?

The minimum (default) settings aren't very helpful. If 196.43.2.142 is the IP address of the server you're sending the e-mail to then it does support the sending of DSNs. However, there's no guarantee that some other server (possible the target domain if 196.43.2.142 is a smart host) also supports that. Here's what the 196.43.2.142 server offeres in response to EHLO: 220 wblv-ip-mesg-2-4.saix.net ESMTP Postfix ehlo XXX.com 250-wblv-ip-mesg-2-4.saix.net 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 102400000 250-ETRN 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN quit 221 2.0.0 Bye --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
