SYMPTOMS
========

The Exchange Notes Connector might shut down itself properly and can't be
restarted, with the following events in the log file from the Connectivity
Controller:

  1999/03/23 15:16:08- LME-NOTES-MEXNTS(0136) 3 54002:MSExchange-Notes
  Transform terminated successfully
  >> mex2nts(859)
  1999/03/23 15:16:09- LME-NOTES(0158) 3 00505:LME-NOTES is ending, last return
  code was {Successful}
  >> stdserv(1249)
  1999/03/23 15:16:09- LME-NOTES(0158) 1 08230:The Microsoft Exchange Connector
  for Lotus Notes service has stopped

CAUSE
=====

This behavior is because of a malformed message coming from Lotus Notes to
Exchange Server and not being moved to the Bad directory. This message was a
non-delivery report (NDR) with four recipients.

RESOLUTION
==========

version 5.5. For additional information, please see the following article in the
