BATV problem V5.1

GrahamHollis
Sending an email using an address with a period in the name, as in first.last@domain.com results in a return path not in the  format. A user without a period works correctly. This would result in a valid bounce being rejected.

    Do you have senders/recipients being skipped from BATV??

    I have no skipped senders or reciepients.

    I sent three emails through the same path, my exchange server which has my ASL as its smart host. The only thing that changes is the senders email address. The headers on the emails as they arrived in order are:

    Status: U                                                      
    Return-Path: 
    Received: from mail.XXXXXXX.com ([99.99.99.999])

    My exim log does not show the prvs= string as you indicate yours does, even for the 2nd email that worked.

    Interesting..I'm using pretty much the same setup you are except I am using a Linux/Sendmail box which then forwards to the ASL. Just in case it is a MS quirk, have you tried relaying mail straight through the ASL bypassing the Exchange. This could at least narrow it down a little....maybe.

    I've done some further testing. If I relay straight through the ASL then it always works. If I send it through exchange with the ASL as its smarthost and the client using the exchange connector, I cant get email addresses with a period in them to work.
