The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

The Microsoft Exchange Server Support directory contains a utility, Restest.exe,
for testing TCP/IP host resolution the same way that the Microsoft Exchange
Internet Mail Connector (IMC) performs host resolution. However, it does not
return additional debugging information when using the -debug switch.

WORKAROUND
==========

The proper syntax for the Restest utility is:

  restest -debug <domain>

where <domain> is the part of the SMTP address to the right of the @ sign.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 U.S.
Service Pack 2. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the
