The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
Exchange Server 5.5 site addressing may generate incorrect Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol (SMTP) addresses for "%g.%s.%m". If there are no given name (first
name) and surname (last name) values entered, the SMTP address that results is
"<alias>.<alias>", instead of "<alias>".
CAUSE
=====
This issue can occur because when a user has no last name, the alias is copied
to the last name field in the recipient information structure before the
recipient information is passed to the proxy generator.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5.
