XADM: Event 6206 after Lotus Notes Directory Synchronization

• Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

After you perform a directory synchronization (dirsync) with Lotus Notes, there may be 6206 events in the event log similar to the following:

Source: MSExchangeNOTES
Event ID: 6206
Type: Warning

MS Exchange Reports: Unable to process custom recipient f7afa2e9-b053f1db-852567be-4a3f83 because target address NOTES:Ralph Jones/LotusOrg@LotusOrg has already been assigned to Address Book entry /o=Ibiza/ou=Shuffletown/cn=Notes Recipients/cn=RalphJ.

CAUSE

This event occurs because an Exchange Server custom recipient has been created for this Lotus Notes user prior to the dirsync process. When the Notes-to-Exchange Server dirsync is started, Exchange Server cannot create a custom recipient because a custom recipient already exists in Exchange Server for that user.

MORE INFORMATION

This problem only occurs after you perform a Notes-to-Exchange Server dirsync, and occurs after both an immediate full reload and an immediate update.
