on Friday, user scheduled email in Outlook to delay send until Saturday
afternoon.

equipment failure caused exchange 2003 on SBS server to lose internet access
from Saturday morning until Sunday morning.

Local network connection was not broken, ie: Outlook clients stayed
connected to Exchange server during downtime.  During downtime, Exchange was
sending thousands of delivery status notification 'delay' messages to Outlook
client regarding previously scheduled email that it is now trying to send.

Upon reconnection of internet access, thousands of copies of the scheduled
email were sent out.  User who scheduled the delayed email received 4667
delivery status notifications for about 4 or 5 real email.

Recipient received 9334 (double the number of delivery status notifications)
in his inbox.  Needless to say, the recipient was not having a good Monday. 
;)

WTF??  Has anyone heard of this?  Very confusing, wouldn't expect Exchange
to be set to freak out as it's default action when trying to send a delayed
email and not having a connection out.

Haven't found anything in searches to explain, hoping someone out there has
an idea.
