XFOR: DBCS Message Sent Through Notes Connector Is Not Displayed Properly

ID: Q242384

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

If you send a message from a computer running a double-byte character set (DBCS) version of Lotus Notes to an Exchange Server computer through the Exchange Notes Connector, DBCS characters in the Subject field may not be displayed properly when you view the message in an e-mail client. This problem occurs when the message is delivered to a recipient on the Exchange Server computer or an Internet recipient through the Internet Mail Service.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when the Exchange Server computer uses the wrong code page to convert the message. The server may use the code page associated with the Exchange Notes Connector's logon thread, rather than the default code page associated with the connector.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5.
