SYMPTOMS
========

When you send a message from Microsoft Exchange to a distribution list from a
CompuServe address book, you may receive the following undeliverable mail
message from the Microsoft Exchange System Administrator:

  Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
  The following recipients could not be reached. Group deleted from
  CompuServe address book.

CAUSE
=====

This error can be caused by an empty distribution list from a new CompuServe
address book. When this error occurs, the empty distribution list is displayed.

RESOLUTION
==========

Check all the groups in the CompuServe address book to make sure that each one
contains valid entries. If a group does not contain valid entries, remove it
from the list in Microsoft Exchange and then send the message again.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows 95. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The message is not sent if any of the addresses are invalid, even if the rest of
the addresses are good.
