We are using MS Outlook 97 (Office SR-2) as a mail client. Some messages
come through with a "Message.txt" attachment, and the body says: "This
message could not be converted. To report this problem to Microsoft, please
forward this message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]" (Of course, this is not a
valid address.) These are local emails, never leaving the IMail server.
Microsoft says this is a bug with the Internet Mail Enhancement Patch for
Outlook 97, and does give me a work-around, although not a very satisfactory
one. We didn't have this problem with our Sendmail server running on Linux,
so I suspect IMail must be doing something different. Ipswitch support says
this is strictly a client problem. Has anyone seen this, and is there a fix?
I'd be willing to make changes on the clients or the server, whichever would
work.(I'll be upgrading to Outlook 2000 within 2 months - it doesn't exhibit
this problem and it supports LDAP.)
