XCLN: Messages Marked as Read when Moved from Client (148421)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 4.0
  • Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 5.0

This article was previously published under Q148421

SYMPTOMS

When you drag an unread message, note, or document from the Windows 95 Exchange client onto either the Microsoft Windows 95 desktop or a folder not in the Windows 95 Exchange client, the original message becomes read.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design.

This is necessary in order to properly handle the read receipts. Once the message leaves the Windows 95 Exchange client (for example, either moved or copied from the Windows 95 Exchange client to another location), the receipt tracking is lost.
