Intersite Messaging Service SMTP Transport received a delivery failure

Intersite_Messaging_Service_SMTP_Transport_received_a_delivery_failure_5_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The Intersite Messaging service using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) transport has received a delivery status report from the SMTP service for a message it submitted that indicated delivery failure. This may be a permanent condition or a transient condition. Active Directory will try this operation again later when it sends another replication message according to the schedule of the intersite connection.

Sample Event:

The Intersite Messaging service using the SMTP transport has received a delivery status report from the SMTP service for a message it submitted that indicated delivery failure.

Delivery status text: %2 %3

This may be a permanent or a transient condition. Active Directory will try this operation again later when it sends another replication message according to the schedule of the intersite connection.

Additional Data

Error value: %1 %4

Resolutions

If the SMTP service has timed out, adjust the SMTP retry parameters by using the SMTP service manager.

If the destination domain controller is unknown or not directly connected to the local domain controller, it may be necessary to configure SMTP to use a gateway to route the mail to the target system. You can do this by using the SMTP service manager.

If the Domain Name System (DNS) address for the destination domain controller cannot be resolved or if network connectivity cannot be established, consult your network administrator.

If the mail message is too large, either increase the message size limit of the SMTP service or disable limit checking.
