SYMPTOMS

Inbound mail from OV/VM (PROFS) to Microsoft Exchange via the Linkage 3.2 OV/VM connector may back up and the Transfer to Exchange for OV/VM process (LME-PROFS-MEXIN) may terminate unexpectedly. The Linkage Administrator browse log may have the following warning/errors logged:

   LME-PROFS-MEXIN    31200   Microsoft Exchange has returned the
                              condition: 80070057

                              addresses: IPM  Content List

CAUSE

A Non-Delivery Report (NDR) coming from the OV/VM host contained retired recipients, the call to resolve the OV/VM recipients failed with and the error code was incorrectly interpreted as a mail system failure which caused the process to terminate and the message to be left in the READY-IN queue.

WORKAROUND

Manually delete the message using the Queue Viewer extension of the Linkage Exchange - Office Vision/VM Connector. The message will be the first in the Inbound from Connector queue.
