The Microsoft® Exchange Server Analyzer Tool queries the Active Directory® directory service proxyAddress attribute value for all user objects to determine whether there is a match for the user-specified local sender Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) address.
If a user object proxyAddress match is found, the Exchange Server Analyzer then queries the Active Directory msExchHomeServerName attribute value of the user object to determine whether that value matches the user-specified Exchange Server name.
The Exchange Server Analyzer then queries the SenderAddress property for the Exchange_MessageTrackingEntry Microsoft Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI) class under the root\MicrosoftExchangeV2 namespace to identify any messages tracked by the message tracking logs from the user-specified sender.
Finally, the Exchange Server Analyzer queries the RecipientAddress property for the Exchange_MessageTrackingEntry WMI class to identify any messages tracked by the message tracking logs to the user-specified recipient.
If the Exchange Server Analyzer cannot find a message-tracking log entry with a RecipientAddress property value that matches the SMTP address of the user-specified recipient, the Exchange Server Analyzer displays an error.
This error indicates that one or more of the following conditions are true:
- The user-specified sender did not send any messages to the
user-specified recipient.
- The message-tracking log retention period has elapsed and the
relevant log entries have already been deleted.
To resolve this issue:
- Verify the specified recipient address is correct.
- Have the specified sender submit another message to the
specified recipient.
- Increase the message-tracking log retention period or track a
more current message.
