XFOR: Korean Characters Are Corrupted by the MS Mail Connector

• Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0
• Microsoft Exchange MS-DOS client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
• Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
• Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
• Microsoft Exchange Windows 95 client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
• Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client, versions 4.0 and 5.0

SYMPTOMS

When you use an English Microsoft Mail client running on Korean Windows 3.1 to send a message containing Korean characters to another English Microsoft Mail client on Korean Windows 3.1, the Korean characters can be viewed correctly by the recipient. However, when the message is sent to or from a Korean Microsoft Exchange client running on Korean Windows NT 3.51, the Korean characters are corrupted. This occurs when the Microsoft Exchange MS Mail Connector is used to connect English Microsoft Mail to Microsoft Exchange Server.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
