This article was previously published under Q303245 SYMPTOMS
When you use Outlook 98 to connect to a mailbox that resides on a Microsoft Exchange 2000 server, the item count as well as the number of items may be incorrect. This behavior may occur when you receive new mail, change folders, delete mail, or move mail from folder to folder.
CAUSE
This issue is caused by a new permissions feature of Exchange 2000. When you assign permissions to items using drive M, it affects the way the client retrieves all items in the folder in which the permission assignment was made.
