“Undeliverable: ” on Exchange 2003

Few days ago I got a error of undeliverable message on exchange 2003.

Undeliverable error

Undeliverable error

Possible Cause:

  • The e-mail account does not exist at the organization the message was sent to. This issue may occur if there was a problem when users were moved between sites. For example, if a former Administrative_Group_1 user moves to Administrative_Group_2 and then replies to an old e-mail message, or if the user does not re-create his or her Outlook profile, an old Administrative Group style LegDN address will be used, and an NDR is generated.
  • The message was sent to obsolete personal address book entries.
  • The categorizer rejected delivery because you configured your SMTP contact with see comment SMTP RFC821 characters.

Troubleshooting: Verify the recipient address and resend the message. Verify that the recipient address is formatted correctly and that the categorizer was able to correctly resolve the recipient.

After resending to proper recipient I got the problem solved.

Adjusting/Tuning TCP MTU for Remote Desktop Connection

Few days ago, I faced problem at remote desktop connection. I could could connect to the remote pc through RDC but it was getting hanged after logging in. Later we found that there was change at remote server at firewall. I had to change adjust the TCP MTU to 1300 to get the connection properly. To adjust the TCP MTU I had to do the following things.

To modify the PPPoE MTU size, create the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Ndiswan\Parameters\Protocols

Then add the following registry entries.

Collapse this tableExpand this table
Entry name Data type Value data
ProtocolType REG_DWORD 0×00000800
PPPProtocolType REG_DWORD 0×00000021
ProtocolMTU REG_DWORD the appropriate MTU size (in decimal)

To do this:

  1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
  2. Locate and then click the following key in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Ndiswan\Parameters
  3. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key.
  4. Type Protocols, and then press ENTER.
  5. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key.
  6. Type 0, and then press ENTER.
  7. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
  8. Type ProtocolType, and then press ENTER.
  9. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
  10. Type 800, and then click OK.
  11. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
  12. Type PPPProtocolType, and then press ENTER.
  13. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
  14. Type 21, and then click OK.
  15. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
  16. Type ProtocolMTU, and then press ENTER.
  17. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
  18. Type the appropriate MTU size (decimal value), and then click OK.

  19. 19.   Browse to the TCP/IP registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parametersby expanding successive folders on the left panel and scrolling down as needed.
  20. Create a MTU value according to this.

    MTU

    Key: Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\interfaceGUID

    Value Type: REG_DWORD—number

    ValidRange: 88–the MTU of the underlying network

    Default: 0xFFFFFFFF

    02

    Adjusting TCP MTU at client pc image 2

    Description: This parameter overrides the default Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for a network interface. The MTU is the maximum IP packet size, in bytes, that can be transmitted over the underlying network. For values larger than the default for the underlying network, the network default MTU is used. For values smaller than 88, the MTU of 88 is used. I insert the MTU value 1300.

And Finally I could log in at the remote server through RDC successfully.

Actually I do not know much about this. Any comment or suggestion regarding this topic will be highly appriciated. Waiting to hear from you.

“Command not available…” error at Outlook 2003

Today , one of my client faced a problem. While he was clicking on the “out of office assistance” at tools option he was getting an error message telling “Command not available. See the program documentation about how to use extension“.

I have solved the problem very easily (but it took some time, as I faced it first time) on the following way.

1. Open Outllook.

2. Click Help.

3. Click About Microsoft Outlook.

4. Click on Disable Items Entry.

5. There I found “Addin: outex.dll (outex.dll)“. Click on it to highlight it and then click on the Enable Button.

6. Then Click on the Close button.

7. Then click on the OK button to close the About Microsoft Office Outlook.

That’s all. We can do this on another way.

1. Quit Outlook if it is running.
2. Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and then click Task Manager.
3. On the Processes tab, verify that Outlook.exe does not appear in the list of processes. If it does, click Outlook.exe and then click End Process.
4. On the File menu, click Exit Task Manager.
5. Click Start, and then click Run.
6. In the Open box, type regedit and then click OK.
7. Locate and then click the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook

8. Right-click the Resiliency subkey (if it exists), and then click Rename.
9. Type Resiliency.old, and then press ENTER.
10. Quit Registry Editor.
11. Start Outlook, and then click Out of Office Assistant on the Tools menu.

That’s all. Hope to get comments from the readers.

Hiding desktop properties on a domain

Yesterday I got a problem of hiding desktop on a domain. Many companies do this at their domain. We can do these using active directory group policy. To do such things we can follow the following steps on your AD server.

1. Click Start, click Run, and then type gpedit.msc.

2. Under Local Computer Policy, expand User Configuration, expand Administrative Templates, expand Desktop, and then click Active Desktop.

3. Double-click Active Desktop Wallpaper.

4. On the Setting tab, click Enabled, type the path to the desktop wallpaper that you want to use, and then click OK.
I worked like this on my domain. The server OS is Windows 2003 server.
Hope that it may come useful to you. I need your suggestion and tips regarding active directory as I am a new at windows AD.
