XCON: Message Transfer Agent Stops on 9405 Errors (242861)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q242861 SYMPTOMS
The Microsoft Exchange Server message transfer agent (MTA) may stop and record a 9405 event in the Windows NT Event Viewer. The 9405 event is from the Field Engineering category:
An unexpected error has occurred which may cause the MTA to terminate. Error: Bad secure on object 2589. [BASE XFER-IN 28] (16)
CAUSE
Access to a connector such as the Internet Mail Service, located on the
affected server, is limited using distribution lists (DLs). Because of this
restriction, transferred messages have to be checked against this access
limitation and the DLs have to be expanded. Depending on the size and the
nesting level of the DLs, this may cause the error above.
