XADM: IMC Can't Decode Mail That Uses the EUC-KR Charset

Last reviewed: April 15, 1997
Article ID: Q155819

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Connector(IMC) will fail to decode messages sent from Netscape using the EUC-KR character set (charset).

CAUSE

This fails because of a conflict in charsets. When the IMC translates Korean messages, it uses the ISO-2022-KR charset, however, Netscape uses the EUC-KR charset.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
