XADM: Store Uses Wrong Language When It Delivers Quota Warning Message to a Public Folder (268131)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 SP1
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 SP2
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 SP3
This article was previously published under Q268131

SYMPTOMS

When you specify a public folder as a contact of another public folder, a quota-warning message may be delivered in English regardless of the locale of the server. In other cases, it may deliver in a random language such as Japanese, Cyrillic, Greek, and so on.

CAUSE

Exchange Server delivers a quota-warning message with the language ID of a contact for a public folder. When a public folder is specified as a contact of another public folder, the language ID is not initialized.

By default, Exchange Server sends the message in English if the uninitialized data is not valid as a language ID, or sends a message in a random language if the uninitialized data is valid as language ID.
