hey guys, i have an odd one here from a client They sent from their outlook to a gmail account, and this is what they got in return Generating server: exmail.domainx.com mrY@gmail.com COL0-MC4-F48.Col0.hotmail.com #550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable ## <-------?o_O Original message headers: Received: from exmail.domainx.com ([172.16.1.20]) by exmail.domainx.com ([172.16.1.20]) with mapi; Wed, 5 Oct 2011 12:27:29 -0400 From: mrx@domainx.com> To: mrY@gmail.com> So i'm confused, how is it he sent an email to a gmail account but got a bounce from hotmail. I'm a bit confused, anybody?

A forward most likely. Something like that. It could also be a contact in the Exchange system with that Gmail and Hotmail address. Simon.Simon Butler, Exchange MVP Blog | Exchange Resources | In the UK? Hire Me.
