The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 5.5, 5.5 SP1, 5.5 SP2, 5.5 SP3 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you set or make changes to size restrictions on an Internet Mail Service
that is set to Inbound Only, you may receive the following message:

  You must specify at least one address on the address space property page or
  at least one site on the connected sites property page before the connector
  can be created.

WORKAROUND
==========

Inbound only messages in the Internet Mail Service are not required to have an
address space. To work around this issue, temporarily add an address space when
you set your size restriction. After the changes are applied, remove the space,
and then restart the Internet Mail Service.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Exchange Server 5.5.

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

When you add or make modifications to size restrictions, and you do not include
an address space, all Exchange Server 5.5 connectors are affected.

The procedure to set size restrictions on the Internet Mail Service is improved
in Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3 (SP3). After you install SP3 on
Exchange 5.5, you are able to enter individual size restrictions for inbound and
outbound messages by using the registry.
