PC Gen: Err Msg: Error Copying... when Running MMFCLEAN.EXE

ID: Q145718

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, version 3.5

SYMPTOMS

When the MMFClean utility, MMFCLEAN.EXE, is used against a mail message file (.MMF) with a hexadecimal identifier (hex-id) of more than three significant digits, MMFCLEAN.EXE will not affect the file.

You may also get an error message in the MMFCLEAN.LOG file:

Error copying <drive>:\MAILDATA\MMF\<hex-id>.MMF

where "drive" is the drive the postoffice is mapped to, and the "hex-id" is for the .MMF file that could not be cleaned.

CAUSE

MMFCLEAN.EXE will only effectively operate on the three digits left of the decimal point. For example, the MMFCLEAN.LOG indicates the following error when executed against MMF filename 00001234.MMF:

User1 00000234
Error copying M:\MMF\00000234.MMF to M:\MMF\~~MMFCCN.TMP

RESOLUTION

This problem has been resolved in version 3.5.4096 of MMFCLEAN.EXE. Please contact Microsoft Product Support Services in order to obtain the latest revision of MMFCLEAN.EXE.
