(exchange 2000 SP3) Several weeks ago a regular user left the company And so the user and mailbox were deleted after 30 days Which is the normal policy. Whats happening now is that if you send and email or Book a meeting with the group this person was a member of You will get and ndr saying that the message could not be sent To the user that was deleted. I've searched high and low through active directory, outlook And system manager without finding a reference to this person, And yet this problem continues. Any ideas ? Thanks. -Ron Barnstable Information Systems. ------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------ ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
