SYMPTOMS
The following error may display when a reply is sent to an MHS mail user
from Microsoft Mail in a non-delivery notice:
Invalid Address
CAUSE
This may happen if the original message received by the Microsoft Mail user
through the MHS gateway includes a comment field in the header, that
contains a comma. In this case, the comma is seen as an address delimiter.
Everything before the comma is one address, and everything after the comma
is a separate address.
