Thanks Oluwaseyi. The distribution list is actually working. It only failed to deliver once, as I described. I was asked to investigate what could have happened at that particular time. This is where the problem is. I can't explain what could have happened. I was actually able to track the e-mail up to the point where it delivered to the two individual addresses and failed to deliver to the receipints in the distribution list.

If the mail is delivered the problem should be with the distribution list and you can try recreating the distribution list from Active directory. Lets know if you are successful with this. -----Original Message----- From: Emmanuel Chimuka [mailto:ChimukaE@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2004 12:30 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: distribution list http://www.MSExchange.org/ I'm running exchange 2000. One of my users sent an e-mail to three internal addresses, one of the addresses being a distribution list address. The e-mail was delivered to the two other addresses. It was not delivered to the addresses in the distribution list, and there were no delivery failure or delivery success notifications. This is the first time such a thing has happened. What could have gone wrong? Has anybody else experienced this? Please help. ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------
