back to the topIssues that are fixed in the hotfix package
The following issue is fixed in this hotfix package, but it was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
- When you open a received e-mail message in Microsoft Outlook 2000, the text that is contained in the Infobar may appear in reverse order. This problem may occur when you open an e-mail message that you replied to earlier.
Note An Infobar in Microsoft Outlook displays a status banner near the top of open e-mail messages, of open appointments, of open contacts, and of open tasks. The Infobar provides you with information about whether an e-mail message has been replied to or has been forwarded, whether it has a follow-up flag on it, or when a meeting request message conflicts with another meeting that is already on your calendar.
