- Exchange 2000 and Win2k w/ English installations We have a user who wants the "�" in his name to also be in his email address instead of a plain old "n". I know from RFC821 that this is not a valid character in an email address and therefore can't be used in Exchange 2000 since it conforms to the RFC. Furthermore, if you attempt to send to an email address with an � I get an NDR from my own categorizer for the same reason. However, this user insists that at his last firm his actual email address was [EMAIL PROTECTED] but that anyone and everyone could email him to user_�@test.com and it would be "converted" and he'd get the email. His old firm used Exchange 5.0 (with a spanish installation) which was before my time but since 5.0 "loosely followed RFC's" was it possible to do what he's saying happened from either Exchange or the OS installation? I've called PSS and all they said was that it's not possible now but they could not answer if it was possible at one time. They and I agree that probably what actually happened was that the user's display name had the � and that's what people actually thought they were sending to. This is actually a big deal to management so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
