PC Win: Saving Changes in Large Mail Message Truncates Message (125256)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.0b
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.2
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.2a
This article was previously published under Q125256 SYMPTOMS
In versions 3.0, 3.0b, 3.2, and 3.2a of Microsoft Mail for Windows, if you
receive a message larger than 32K, the following message appears:
The message is too large to fit into memory
all at once. Some of it will not be displayed.
When you close the message, you will be prompted to save changes. If you
choose Yes, the message will be truncated. Also, if there are references to
attachments in the message, they may be lost if they fall beyond the 32K
boundary.
CAUSE
The Windows Mail client has a maximum display size of 32K. MS-DOS Mail
clients and Mail gateways can send messages that exceed this limit.
RESOLUTION
To prevent truncation of the message, choose No when prompted to save
changes. To read the entire message, choose Save As from the File menu to
save the message to your hard disk drive. You can then open the saved
message in a text editor and view its entire text.
