XFOR: Incorrect Date on Message Sent Through Lotus cc:Mail Connector

ID: Q192595


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 5.0, 5.5


SYMPTOMS

When you send a message through the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus cc:Mail and the cc:Mail recipient views the message, the date on the message may be incorrect.

For example, if you sent the message on January 1, 2000, the date is displayed as "1/1/1900" (without quotation marks) instead of "1/1/2000." Note that this problem also occurs when an Exchange Server recipient receives a message through the Exchange Connector for Lotus cc:Mail, and then views the message in an e-mail client.

This problem only occurs when you use Import.exe version 8.0 and a DB8 cc:Mail post office.
