PC WRmt: Incorrect Sorting by Subject

 Last reviewed: October 31, 1994
Article ID: Q99116
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, version 3.2

SYMPTOMS

When sorting messages by Subject (using the View menu) in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, the RE: and FW: header prefixes are not ignored, as they are by Microsoft Mail for Windows. This causes all replies and forwards to be sorted together.

The sort should ignore the RE: and FW: prefixes so that messages are truly sorted by subject.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
