XFOR: DBCS Messages Not Migrated Correctly from Novell GroupWise (179980)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q179980 SYMPTOMS
When you migrate messages that were created using a double-byte character
set (DBCS) from Novell GroupWise, the messages may not be displayed
properly when you open them in an e-mail client after the migration.
CAUSE
When you migrate messages from GroupWise, the messages are converted to
Rich Text Format (RTF) before they are migrated to the Microsoft Exchange
Server computer. Messages that contain DBCS characters may not be converted
correctly. Therefore, they may not be displayed properly when you open them
in an e-mail client.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 5.5. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service
Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. For information on
obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft
