Appointment Generates NDR for users no longer in Active Directory

Hi All,

we have an issue which is as follows;

When a meeting request is sent to a group of users the sender of the request
receives NDRs back for users that are no longer a part of the Active
Directory Domain.

For example:
If I were to send an email to John and Peter, I would receive an NDR for
Larry even though I did not invite him and regardless of the fact that he is
no longer a user on the domain.

The only thing I can think of is that Larry was a delegate of Johns, maybe
this has something to do with it?

We have a 100+ users and currently receive between 10-15 NDRs as described
above.

Any help would be appreciated.

Delegates would definitely cause that behavior. Have you checked for them?

Steve,

The delegates may be a possibility also check to see if there is any
automatic forwarding setup either via rules or directly on the Exchange
Server. Also are you using a distribution list or selecting the
recipients individually via the Global Address list.

Thanks to both Sue and Francine.

In answer to your questions:

1. The users are selected individually and added to the invitation.
2. They no longer show up as delegates in Outlook on any of the other users
computers
3. There is no special forwarding or rules etc setup on the exchange server.

It is a if the users delegate relationships still remain somewhere but are
not visible.

What did you use to look for rules? You may need to use the free Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Editor (MFCMAPI) tool from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=55FDFFD7-1878-4637-9808-1E21ABB3AE37 to remove the delegate rule. Instructions are in the .doc file that comes with the download
