Hello,<br />
Is it possible to put spaces in an exchange email or distribution list account? &nbsp;And what does this have to do with it? &nbsp;&gt; RFC 822 and RFC 2822 Standard for internet e-mail address names. &nbsp;What is the difference in changing the distribution lists' name, compared to changing the distribution lists email name (and try to put spaces in it) &nbsp;This EU (who is NOT in IT) &nbsp;im working with refuses to accept me only putting spaces in the distribution lists name. &nbsp;He wants all sorts of changes in the distribution list's EMAIL name. &nbsp;GRRR!<br />

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
