XFOR: Extra Designators in Korean ISO-2022-KR Encoded Messages

Last reviewed: March 10, 1998
Article ID: Q182166

The information in this article applies to:

  Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0 SP4

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector (IMC) version 4.0 SP4 inserts additional designators in the message body for Korean ISO-2022-KR encoded messages. An ISO-2022-KR designator is defined as the following sequence of characters per RFC1557:

   ESC "$" ")" "C"

These additional designators may cause some e-mail clients to display additional blank lines for each designator. Thus, the formatting of the ISO- 2022-KR message that the recipient receives may be displayed with extra blank lines between every line of text.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0 SP4. This problem has been fixed in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0 and Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5.
